A Kayfun style RBA I think is the best choice for a first tank. It is easy to build on, although you will have to familiarize yourself with how the vacuum in the tank works so that you can prevent leaking. There are plenty of tutorial available on youtube and this forum to help you get you started.

The Kayfun is a mainstay RBA and a rite of passage of most vapors who are looking to take their next step. :)

Most go with the Kayfun lite. I much prefer the 3.1. I have the Ehpro Kayfun 3.1 and it's made really well. The design allows for any leaking to be collected inside the bottom cap. I get zero external leaking. None on the sides or 510 connector. I highly recommend the Kayfun as long as you get a good one if it's not an authentic. I use mine in all stainless mode and it's performance is awesome, ultra reliable and built like a tank. (Boom boom not puff puff) ;)

Ok thanks guys. Is there a difference between the Kay fun lite and lite plus?? Or are they the same?? I am going to go authentic most definate.

Now u guys say about leaking. Do these leak if built wrong? Can they be stored on there side? What pre cautions should I take with an rba and leaking. Thanks again for the replys

A Kayfun lite has a standard one standard, non adjustable air hole, while the Lite plus has adjustable air flow . Yes the Kayfun can leak if not built correctly, including wicking. But it can also leak if it is not assembled correctly too.

The precaution you need to take involves watching several review and tutorial videos prior to using to make sure that you first have a strong understanding of the device and how it is supposed to work. Watch videos by PBusardo, Toddecigreviews, and Vaping Greek for the Kayfun as the have the most complete and comprehension reviews on youtube for any given device.

Only thing with the store is its a little bit more money and gotta pay tax on top of that. In hoping they would price match from a site. I'm always willing to help out if they are just as nice.

Is the airflow a bettrr thing to have? Is the original kayfun a really tight draw? I have an aero tank now and the air flow adjustment comes in handy with certain liquids.
Thanks again

Hey guys whats going on. Im looking into getting a RBA tank. Not sure what really to get my Local shop has some THere site is. Clean Vapor Store
But what do you guys recommend. I dont want to purchase twice if I dont have to. Thanks guys all replys will be looked at thanks again :D


From the offerings displayed by your local store, I'd go with the Kayfun Lite Plus V2. Beware that what they have pictured on the site appears to be a standard Kayfun Lite clone and not a Plus V2. Just make sure you're getting what you paid for. Their prices are a bit higher then what you'd pay online, but not to far out for a B&M.

I never got the hang of building on a Kayfun. My builds always leaked terribly, low skill level most likely. I did get Taifun built right and now have four more. For whatever reason, I found the Taifun quite easy to build without leaks. I use it on a Provari at around 2.0 - 2.5 Ohms and 4.0-4.5 Volts.
