MTL rant

[David Wolf]

Have a few authentic km3 and my wife was kind of interested. She usually vapes a nautilus mini and I figured I would buy her a km3 clone first and if she really liked it, I would then buy her a real one. Anyways I bought 2 km3 clones from 3 f vapes and both were bad. One, whatever I did I couldn't get a connection and the other one , no matter how tight you closed off the JC, it wouldn't totally close, so it leaked on every fill. Hopefully you will get a good one because they are a great tank.

I heard the ones from FT are great but I had a bad experience from 3f. After I received mine and couldn't vape them, I contacted them about it. At first they didn't really want to do anything but after emailing back and forth a few times, they finally said they would send me a couple new bases. I really wanted 2 new ones because after seeing the quality of the ones I got, I was worried that the new parts wouldn't fit what I had. Well after another 2 or 3 weeks, the parts came in and was only able to get one tank working with all the parts I had and tbh, that working tank isn't that great. I then complained again and before they would issue me a store credit, I had to shoot a video on the issues[emoji107] . I did finally get a full store credit but it all just wasn't worth the hassle. Anyways I seem to have just gotten unlucky and im sure yours will be good.

I saw a review on YouTube for A kayfun V3 mini that was rated highly and good rating on fasttech that's only 11+ dollars so if this one from 3F doesn't work out I'll try that one.

The good thing is that for like 11 bucks, you can try all the clones until you find one that works, and still pay less than the authentic.

I suppose most would agree but I would just rather not deal with the possible issues. I know most have had great luck in the clones but the 2 times I tried saving money , I had nothing but headaches, so for me, never again

It's hit or miss really, either really really bad or really good. The taifun mini that I bought to nano size my authentic taifun is the same or better quality than the original. Plus, it cost 10% of what the steam tuners kit cost, has a better, shorter chimney & protected glass tank instead of the dumb threaded plastic one.

Only complaint about that one is it smelled like a dumpster when I got it, like most clones.

Sounds nice and for a deal like that and good quality, a little extra cleaning is worth it

Yeah but the kayfun one's are crap. Best bet is probably look at a bunch of reviews and find out what's what.

Normally whenever I buy an authentic I'll also buy a clone of it for spares. Really came in handy for my rose 3... I dropped it pretty good and now the original top part, tank and collar are all sitting on my shelf, cross-threaded.

I have to admit, I wasn't loyal to my gennys. I vaped them for years and enjoyed them immensely. I have awesome memories because I really started my vape journey with gennys. I learned how to build really from the start (besides really starting with cig a likes and a short go with carts and old dripping attys ). Buy when the kfl came out I had to try this innovative tank and I kind of never went back. I do miss my old DID's, ac9's, rsst, aga-t, and a few others and been thinking on buying and trying one of the newer gennys

I'm the opposite, I need juice control bc I fly a lot, the Tilemahos and taifun are the only two atomizers that don't leak all over the place. I haven't had any leakage from my rose 3, maybe an o-ring? Have you tried replacing the the one under the collar and on the deck?

Yeah if you fly a lot it sucks. I fly at least once a month as well and I always remove my atomiser from my mod and rap it in a napkin. Funnily, my tilemahos always seemed too leek in juice from the tank into the chamber even with the juice flow control closed all the way, so there is some small tolerance there.

I'll check the o-ring on the Rose 3 though, thanks for the tip.

There's one under the collar and one wrapped around the body of the deck, if those 2 don't seal properly you can get a leak through the base.

My vote is for the Origen v3, 4 ml or 6ml . I have a Clapton squeezed in there and 400 or 500 mesh solid but not tight wick. The flavor is off the charts. I also really only vape tanks that are portable. The only leaking I have had is a little condensation, even that is rare. On my current build nothing at all. The air flow is very customizable as well!!
