Well you have sold me. Now looking for a kayfun. Any suggestions on which edition would go with a polished ELA with brass?
I believe that the epsilon finish (semi-polished) is what will match a polished ELA the best. Mine is a gamma (brushed) that I refinished to match the ELA.
Cant go wrong with a kayfun. Good flavor, plenty of vapor, and easy setup. Silica style without the hassle of non res wire.
Set your alarm clock and sign up for notifications. Germany at intaste. Bout 97 shipped! Though there is a handful of other retailers, intaste is probably the cheapest and fastest to ship, they are also open more often to where it makes it easier to sign up for notifications.
Doesn't vaperev do notifications?
Anyway, my first rba was a Penelope. Twisting non-res + res wire is not beyond a rookie. You don't have experience with it until you do. Know what I mean?
Anyway, the terminator-c would be another good choice for a starter rba. It has a brushed finish, is cheaper, pretty easy to acquire, and tastes great. For 1/3 the cost of a Kayfun it's definitely not 1/3 the satisfaction.

I think vape rev does notifications, but I don't believe they are carrying the lite. I wish they did.
Another enthusiastic nod for the Kayfun Lite. I received 2 from inTaste, last Thursday. I prefer the Lite over the 3.1.

really? i just sold my Kayfun 3.1 because i like my Big Ben from Art of Exhale... a lot!
Much easier, much lighter - titanium, and a bit less in price... taste and vape is imo more consistent.
Don't get me wrong, I think the Kayfun 3.1 is a super device really...
but i'm giving AoE a good shot... got 3 more attys coming in now; a Geni, a Dripper, and a sort of filler-fed dripper the Prometey; all Titanium and all about $130. If they all work like the BB, I'll be tickled... for real.
Ingeneious little design in the BigBen... an over coil 4 or 5 tank that feeds through a bit of rolled up mesh right to the silica wick/coil. I don't know how it does it, but it freeking works.
$100 is a great price for the Lite, and if it works better than the full kit, wow.... those Svoe folks are serious about their gear!
Not sure if anyone else had this problem with InTaste, but it looks like most of the Kayfun Lite orders placed on the 4th got sent back by German customs. From what I can tell, orders placed the day before and after got delivered just fine. Unfortunately, my Lite was one of those sent back. Its sitting in Limbo somewhere (InTaste warehouse maybe?) and I haven't gotten much detail out of customer service yet. I guess now its a race to see which will be delivered first, my ELA or my KLite.
EDIT: And yes, the Lite only comes in one finish. It should look pretty sharp on a polished ELA.

I did find a ghetto use for ferric chloride... I got lazy one day and ground down some some brass pieces over the toilet in my spare bathroom (told ya... Ghetto) and left the ground brass sitting in the bowl for a couple days without flushing... When I finally did flush, I noticed that the brass particles had dissolved into the porcelain. Scrubbing had no effect.
1/2 cup of ferric chloride and 10 mins had it looking like new.
Yea... I know that I should have my ... kicked for flushing that stuff but better that than pony up $ for a new crapper.

To my eyes,the finish on the kaykun lite and the super T polish is as good a match as you will find without finishin the kayfun and the ELA at the same time, by the same person with the same equipment.
But,I have never been complimented on my eyesight either
and as far as I know,the lite is only one finish
I got a terminator two weeks ago(no kayfun's to be found at a reasonable price) and was somewhat impressed with my first effort at setting it up,I know with practice,it'll get better.
Then,I got a new kayfun lite and a 3.1 from the classies the same day.For me,the lite is a revelation,I didn't think it would be as good as it is.No N/R wire,super simple set up,and an awesome vape.
No silica tho,I been useing xc-116 and it rocks,wicks great,no funky taste and dry burns back to snow white and pristine

That blows!! I ordered mine from them on the 1st and was vapin it the 6th
Who would trade an ELA for a Nemesis (just happened on the classifieds)? Is the button that much of a learning curve? Ow and yes my so called burns are healing nicely 
You guys are making me get the "itch" for trying something new. ( okay, let the jokes roll) I ve been using Odys for almost a year now, and even though I dont think I need anything more than what Im getting from them, theres always the little thought that I might like it, even worse what If i like it better? The Kayfuns have been seducing me since before I got my first Ody. And with the new ones that are free from the little , but fixable problems the first Kayfuns had, its harder to resist.
Size kept me from them before with the long saber touch, didnt want to go around with a literal Saber or wand. They look amazing on ELA in 18350/500.
Oh well , I will leave enough alone. I have nice looking, great performing Odys. I will RESIST the urge.

What's worse is that the packages were returned to InTaste on the 8th (the day I was supposed to get it) and they haven't re-shipped the items yet. That normally wouldn't seem that strange but you have to consider that when I placed my order on the 4th, I had a tracking number 45 minutes later. Tomorrow will be 3 days with no information and people are starting to get impatient.
Its almost like the returned Lites were somehow dumped back into the system, resold, shipped out before someone caught it, and they're now waiting for a restock in order to send what should have been here already. Of course that's just my suspicion, and hopefully there's a perfectly good explanation for why their customers have been left in the dark.
Get one, just so you can try it, if you don't like it, it should be easy to sell. That is what I had planned for the first one. Never dreamed I wouldn't just like it, but I love it.

Personally, I would not trade my Nemesis for an ELA and vice versa.

I dont know unless they really had bad dexterity on their pinky or ring finger. I have small hands and the ring finger works great.
Main reasons is they are running in vaping packs that dont appreciate good ole US devices and oooh and awe for exotic imports. Maybe they are such flippers that they have to sell and get whatever "IN" MOD is hot at the moment because its hard to get.
NOt that its not a nice looking device, but a rather common looking tube of steel with a neat logo on it. Seems to me that the "LOGO" crazy generation goes crazy for logos because it proves exclusivity and high price.
I think that if you laid out a bunch of devices and took all the logos/ price tags off most would get looked over and people would go for weight , design, actual features one can use, and quality.
