She does screw it on a screw, but then has to unscrew the screw to screw in the wick. Screwing in the wick, screws up the perfection of the coil screwed on the screw..
Now it's all screwed up and screwing with Aprils screwy mindscrew!
Beenom?!

April, that coil looks almost perfect to me. The center part is more tightly spaced, but each end seems to spaced exactly like the other end. Well done.
EXAcTLY!!! Dusteroo knows what I'm talking about. I even try screwing in the wick. Squish!!! Ugh. To be fair, that ni200 is soft and easy to squish. I will get it to stay perfect one if these days.
Thank you, Pappy. It's still working well and I can't see the squish with the top cap on
I had to send my Provari back to Provape for repairs. They said the switch was worn out. So a paltry $25 repair charge and my beloved Provari is now winging its way back to me from Provape. Can't wait to get it back.
Great product. Great company.

First time I've heard of a button wearing out. I'm sure that is your main PV.
My foray into rebuildables is going nicely. I have a Veritas clone, which is the bomb. Very first coil, 28g 10 wraps came out to 1.7ohms, a bit high, but it hits like a champ so I'll stay with it awhile. KFL+ clone, 2nd coil, 1.2ohm (7 wraps I think?) is doing nicely too. Tighter than the Veritas of course, but I knew that going in. I have an Aqua v2 clone on the way too. Any other suggestions? Magma? Plume Veil? tank or RDA, I don't care, just looking for stuff

Ice, I think you'll find the Veritas, Magma and Plume Veil will impart a near-identical vape. They all incorporate the same direct-to-coil airflow. I have a Veritas and a Plume Veil and my Plume Veil collects dust. It's an excellent vape but not better than the Veritas but it leaks like a pig. The Veritas is near leak-proof so that's why it sees all the dripping action. You might want to explore a couple/few more tanks. Retic and a few others like their Roses. There is a new Kayfun Version 4 (big bucks, clones coming soon), Erlkonigin and Erlkonigin Prince, etc..
I've heard of those tanks you mentioned, and I know the Kayfun 4 is being cloned as we speak. Anyone
Like the Lemo? I'll for sure take a look at those others

It was the switch according to Provari. It got to where I had to press the button really hard to get it to fire. I can't even guess how many thousands (or hundreds of thousands) of activations that poor switch had.
Any Vamo, VTube, LavaTube, etc. would have worn out and been tossed in the trash long ago.

I like the Orchid V4..a lot of room to build but the drawback is it only holds 4ml of juice. Nice vape and good air-flow though.
Since I'm not looking to get any new tanks, and don't have the budget right now, I used a tip from Retic, and some ideas from others posted here to revive my KFL clones. I bought them all around the same time, and they all developed leaking and flooding issues at the same time. They've been sitting aside, cleaned and coil-less for more than a month.
Two are now revived and working great. New coils, M-tanks (all plastic) to replace the metal-plastic-metal tank assembly. E-liquid on the o-rings and threads to improve the seal. Swapped standard drip tips with some that have a bigger inner diameter.
Voila! Back to good vaping. Not great like my 2 Veritas are, but they get my Provari and my HHV fruit vapes back in rotation.

Haven't had that trouble with the KFL tip. But then I made mine bigger before I started using it.

Have you tried the Kayfun Mini clone by any chance? I'll always be thankful of Retic for suggesting I buy one. In my case, I like it more than both the Magma and KFL+. It's also pretty cheap.

Oh definitely. I get those others to last 6 - 8 months and I'm happy. But then for a fraction of the cost who can complain. Good backups if nothing else. I've had my P2 for 22 months and not a thing wrong with it. It's in semi-retirement now that I got my P3. P3 has the same durability feel as the P2.
I haven't, but I'll take a look, thanks!Have you tried the Kayfun Mini clone by any chance? I'll always be thankful of Retic for suggesting I buy one. In my case, I like it more than both the Magma and KFL+. It's also pretty cheap.

If I had the tools for it... well, I'd be dangerous. Retic advised e-liquid on the o-rings long ago, and Papaw did a drip tip switcheroo. I'd love more airflow in the KFLs, which is funny because at first I preferred a tighter draw like the dense cigs I used to love. As you said so perfectly on the Big Thread, never say never.
