GARY! 
Call me paranoid, it's OK, it's just my opinion: I'd drink something stored in an oak barrel but I wouldn't vaporize and inhale it.
Yep, Gary's right the KF4 is relatively simple 'in use'. No screw drivers or syringes needed for daily refilling. The deck w/ it's 4 screws is actually one of the easier decks to build on and align the coil legs to wrap around the screws. You only have to completely disassemble it when it's new for a good cleaning. But I don't know of any other RTA that has as many parts when it is fully disassembled.
Yes, it did come w/ 3 colored tubes along w/ the clear and SS mid-tank section. That site also sells replacement clear tanks for a couple bucks each. Don't know if the replacement tanks are also OOS.
I don't use it because it's polycarb, and I like my freckled lemonade... a tank etcher.
It DOES look cool on the device.. I think that little white plug is for when you take it off of the rest of the KF4 for refilling. you have to unscrew the whole tank and fill it from the bottom.

Where did you get the 'steampunk' poly tank?
A white plug is real handy when i need to take care of a coil/wick problem with a half-full tank. A few ml's lost is no problem, but much less messy.
No I don't, but that's because I don't like banana flavored things so I've never been tempted to use that flavoring. Love to eat bananas as long as they're not ripe and squishy. It's interesting though, that banana is better steeped when other fruits don't seem to need it.
Flavor Concentrates banana flavoring is just right for you then. It tastes like a banana just bought at the grocery. I like them ripe so I add just a bit of banana ripe flavoring to the Flavor Concentrates flavoring and let it steep.
http://www.xtardirect.com/ now has free shipping on all US orders. I was given the coupon code NOV5 for 5% off after submitting my email address. I know somebody was looking for a specific Xtar charger. The combination of free shipping and 5% off results in the best prices I've seen for Xtar products.
The barrels are cleaned & sterilized, & resulting liquids filtered until clear. I don't have a problem with it. Most of the juices I vape are barrel aged. I'd just be doing it on a smaller scale. I'm also considering soaking the chips in Makers Mark 46 & JD first since they are bourbon flavors.
Last night I had to use pliers to get my wife's Kay Fun lite off of the istick 30. I didnt really notice when I put the tank on the mod, but it bottoms out on the raise vent grooves on the top of the mod, and them screw holes work like a lock washer.
I haven’t had this problem using the adapters, this is our first tank that actually fits without the adapter.

That happened to Janet. The air screw of the KFL loosened and was 'sticking into' one of the groves of the iStick. I was a lucky ... with the point of a sewing needle I was able to reach the screw and work it back into the KFL so I could unscrew it.
It was 'locked' solid. I think I would have destroyed the top of the iStick if I forced it off w/ pliers.
Shew! Got lucky!
Once adjusted to my liking, I put a tiny dab of rubber cement on 'em, keeps 'em from backing out. But easy to remove if desired.
Didnt think about that, I looked a little closer, and sure nuff, it was an air adjustment screw that bottomed out and caused the problem. the tank arrived with the "adjustment screws" flush, so in fact is not adjustable, lol. My next day off I will see if I cant shorten those adjustment screws so they recess into the tank but the draw isn’t so tight, were talking .025, lol.
Thanks for the idea!
ETA: haven’t yet had any trouble with the fill screw, but will keep a watchful eye as things wear!
I've yet to have a problem with a fill screw backing out. They snug up after filling, and the slight compression on the o-ring helps keep them tight.
Some take the air adjust screws all the way out, but mine are adjusted flush. If that's a happy place for you, just back them out a tad, use a toothpick to put a dab of rubber cement on, and run them back flush. The cement will be forced into the threads, lock firmly in place, and still be able to remove if wanted.

Odyssey Update
Thirteen people have secured their place at The Odyssey and paid in full. We estimated the cost based on sixteen people attending. The house sleeps twenty. There are several “tentative” attendees. The rate was figured at $181.19 per person for the weeklong stay from April 16th – 23rd, 2016.We are asking anyone else who plans to attend, and has not yet paid, to PM me (seapeach) ASAP to make arrangements to pay, or at least have a payment plan in progress with me to assure your place. All funds should be received by January 15, 2016; however, it would be helpful to get a plan in place immediately. As this is an interdependent venture, it is crucial for us to know who is seriously considering attending and have a payment plan in place in order for those attending to adjust their finances.
This is necessary to guarantee the final payment to Paradise Resorts is paid in full by February 15th. On January 15th, I will be posting the balance owed, minus any outstanding payments due to be received; along with a request for additional funds from those who have already paid in full should that become necessary.
Everybody who has already paid in full has made a payment of $200.00 even. If the additional funds needed are less than the $18.81 you have in residual, your residual will be used to meet that need and your balance will remain in the residual fund. If the additional funds needed are more than $18.81 you have in residual, you will need to forward payment, or have a plan in progress to meet the balance owed by the time the February 15, 2016 payment is due.
In this way, those who are set to attend will have ample time (thirty days) to secure any additional funds needed. I know Christmas is coming up and many have additional expenses.
For an idea of what additional funds may look like:
We currently have thirteen attending paid in full. That leaves three spaces outstanding. ($543.57 divided by thirteen is an additional $41.82 per person, minus $18.81=$23.01)
If fourteen attend, there will be two spaces outstanding. ($362.38 divided by fourteen is an additional $26.00 per person, minus $18.81=$7.19)
If fifteen attend, there will be one space outstanding. ($181.19 divided by fifteen is an additional $12.08, minus $18.81=+$6.73 remaining in residual fund.)
If sixteen attend the payment to Paradise Resorts will be totally covered. (with $119.76 remaining in residual fund.)
If seventeen to twenty attend, payments will be placed into the residual fund for ancillary support, (paper products, groceries, gas, to = $319.76-$600.00 in the residual fund).
