Vaporange still has some white & gold Ehpro for 9.99. And Vapenw has some Ehpro Lite+v2's & the Nano's, & some Tobecco's.
You told me about these weeks ago, and I wound up buying three from Vaporrange. I thought it was purely a clearance thing, but apparently they've sold so many at this price that they're restocking some. They were out of the white ones for quite a while (I found a white and a stainless V1 elsewhere), but they now seem to have white again.

For anyone not familiar with the company, it is outstanding. Free shipping on all items, and it's lightning fast.

Anybody got one of those KF V5 authentics that can give their impressions?? Is there a thread??
I have an authentic, Pat. I also have an authentic K3 mini (and KFL+V2). The K3 mini is a tighter draw than the K5. It's also a bit of a PITA to build, because the deck is VERY small (it's a 19mm atty). The K5 is a K3mini on steroids. 22mm, easy to build, much bigger tank, and on the tightest airflow, a bit airier. I think you could do DL hits with airflow open. Some of us are a little upset that it doesn't go tighter. There's an airflow restrictor, but it isn't readily available. It's beautifully machined; the threads are like buttah.

Nice people on the K5 thread. But, it's only about authentics. No discussion of clones allowed. The OP didn't want any arguing about authentics vs clones, so he set it up that way. Just sayin. :)

Shoulda watched PB's review huh? Thats the way the Merlin is it has a removable AF retrictor so it can either be 2.5mm or 3.5mm I'm finding out that this atty is like someone told me power hungry at least with SS. I usually vape at 425F 22J on my STM's but on this one the best flavor I have got so far is 435F 30J. I'm thinking of throwing a Ti build in it. It is juice hungry also gone through almost 3 tanks in 6 1/2 hours.

I'd probably like a K5. I DL on a 2 by slipstreaming a little extra air. I'm waiting for an Ehpro clone tho.

I rebuilt a Rogue, 2 Mantas, a Stumpy and the K3 mini, today. I'm not sure what came over me! DH is in the Outer Banks (on his way home, by now), offshore fishing with his brother. That left me with a quiet day, and I figured I'd do something useful. I build so infrequently that this was a big darn deal -- especially since it took me 4 tries (and 3 shorts!) to trap the *+!%#* legs on the K3 mini :facepalm: :)! Hummm... Practice makes perfect, I guess! :lol: :lol: :lol:
