A few months ago I bought a kayfun Lite + clone and I love it. Unfortunately, I dropped it on the pavement a couple of days ago, and now when I try to fill it, the liquid just runs right through it and leaks out of the drip tip. I have taken it apart and reseated everything, but it still leaks like a sieve.

So yesterday I ordered a Squape Reloaded clone. I have read some good things about it and I hope I did not make a mistake ordering one of these. I like the fact that I can get at the coil without having to drain the tank first.

Anybody else have a Squape Reloaded clone, and how do you like it?

I might be able to help you find the leak... or cause there of. Had a friend with a crack in his plastic section, was so small neither of us could find until we did this....
Find a bit of hose that will fit over a drip tip. Slide the hose on the drip tip, install the tip and while you cover the air feed hole, dunk the entire Kayfun (without wick or coil) under water. Gently blow into the hose. You might need a hand holding the drip tip and or hose on, but the air bubbling out of his showed us exactly where to start closely inspecting the Kayfun. IDK if it'll work for everyone, but can't hut to try....

I tried several kayfun clones. I must say, im the kind of person who cant stand clones. Some clones are of good quality, good machining, overall working, but all they have flaws, except for the russian, that thing is build solid. Every chinese clone of kayfun uses inferior steel quality. It bends and scraps real easy.
Of course, if you drop a original kayfun it will probably be damaged too.
