PITA if you're out and about. Why do they do that? It seems so inane! I don't understand why they can't just twist off and fill from bottom. I really wanted to grab a lot of those. There's still a sale on stm, I already have two, but I will grab two more. I think they are dependable tanks.

Is mounting the coils on the kayfuns as easy as stm? If there is a little difficulty I won't mind.

A Kayfun is easy as they come to build on.

for myself, bottom fill is not an issue ... I never have to refill when out and about.

I always take 2 ProVari topped with Kayfuns when I go out ... and If I'm gone overnite, I bring extra batteries, juice, build tools, etc.

So glass dripper bottles are out of the question? Is it hard with regular plastic bottles? Kayfuns are super dependable though? I definitely do want some that will last. The price is so good that I could reasonably stock up.
You may find a dropper or plastic dripper bottle to work. As I recall I did it in a pinch but preferred a needle. For on the go try a plastic bottle with needle tip.

Honestly once I used an STM I never looked back, because of that screw hole fill and the tight draw and the whistling of the air hole.

My only downside to the STM was sporadic leaking as is commonly reported.

I put tge barrel info the tank tightly and I can unscrew the bottom and fill with a squeeze bottle without using the fill port.

I can also remove my build without dumping Juice.

PS I used a KFL +,. Your v3 may be very different in these regards

I second what WillyZ said. Very easy to build on. Some people say they have a hard time trapping the legs. Which I can understand but I just hold the coil tight to the air hole with a screwdriver or jig then wrap around the screw and back up and around the screwdriver or jig. Holds the leg tight to the screw and everything is stable. The second leg is even easier with that method.

They cost more but you may want to look at the mini v3+ tanks. They are top fill and still hold 3-3.5mls.

I'm just thinking of the size compared to stm. I don't go out alot, but if I need to refill it is fairly easy.

if you use tge fill port USE the wider tip as shown. They work way better than dripper or Blunt needle.

Most of the time i remove the base with my build and fill the tank to the top of the barrel and screw the base back in.

Easy.

I love my stm. I've never had any problems with it. I'm just thinking of cheap backups.

Sometimes they hook up/on just fine, other times you just wanna throw the damned thing away because it refuses to thread. ^^

Well that's how i feel after 2 years of using em, i still love em. But sometimes when i've to recoil, especially if i've little spare time, they always refuse to tighten up just enough. ^^

The reason i have trouble trapping leads is because i have 1 1/2 hands. Three fingers on my left hand are curled up snd useless.

That is why I was wanting them. I lung hit. I like the juice wells and airflow. I don't like tight draws anymore.

I don't think that anyone here is naive enough to think that the government or the FDA is our friend or out to help us. It certainly didn't take the deeming regs to make me very aware of that fact. o_O

This, more than anything, Scares me -
(Specifically, we forecasted that 20 to 80 premarket tobacco applications would be submitted within the first 24 months and 10 to 20 annually thereafter.
Their Idea of some reduction in market:facepalm:

:(
