Good idea. Thank you.

sedge, I think your going to really enjoy the GTII. Just got mine today and did a single 6 wrap 29 gauge micro around a 2.5mm bit for 1.5 ohms. Doing really good with koh gen do cotton. I've always had trouble with RTA's, and have had the erlkonigin, Kayfun v2, Squape R and couldn't get them to work properly. GTII is a breeze and wicks are constantly exposed to juice, so I don't get my typical dry hit plague =]
Sounds like great build. Glad you found an RTA you're pleased with.
I am looking forward to it. Now if it would just clear customs.....

Nice thread Sedge..I wasn't a tank fan until I tried the Orchid..I still love my squonker though as nothing I've found yet beats dripping upside down as far as flavor goes. I'll be a regular on this thread for info and tank porn. Thnx

So a real quick report. I received the KF4 yesterday afternoon. I also ordered the 4S kit, P3 connection and the 3 rebuild kits. All ordered from intaste on release day. My shipment was delayed because I accidentally ordered 4 P3 connectors. I emailed intaste and they were able to amend my order before shipping. I also ordered the Origen v2 genny, a Squape R shorty tank, and some Erlkonigin parts.
I built and filled the KF4 right outta the box. I had no issues and it performed wonderfully. The all metal tank is sexy.
After the tank was emptied, I wanted to put on the P3 base.
I ran into the same problem as Aal.
Fortunately, I recovered from it quickly using no-scratch channel locks.
Then, I couldn't get the 510 base off for a second. Part #9, the UC counter screw, wouldn't budge. Again, the no-scratch pliers to the rescue.
I took the time to break down the ENTIRE unit. UC'd all parts, lubed all metal threads and orings. All threads were fine but I worked them anyway. Reassembled just fine, though I would suggest having the schematic next to you and work on a towel so not to lose parts. Also, a fine mesh strainer in the sink when rinsing is a must.
The P3 connection is wonderful. Solid and sleek.
I didn't install the 4S kit. Airdraw is open enough for me.
I spent more time on this build. 29 gauge, 2.0mm ID, 8-9 wraps, 1.6 ohms, Shiseido cotton. I installed the glass tank. I'm chain vaping at 20 watts on the P3.
No dry hits. Wicking perfectly. Vapor and flavor are wonderful. Nice, warm, thick and moist. I'm using a long-time ADV which has never tasted better.
Kudos to the Svoemesto team. This is an amazing atomizer. Engineering is beyond brilliant. Construction is superb. I love the Kayfun 4.

OH nice Sedge .. Looks like a larger juice capacity as well? I was seriously considering the Aqua V2 tank/dripper combination.
It is an outstanding device. Smaller and lighter than the KF4 with similar juice capacity.
Check out the thread I started on the Aqua v2 with a detailed pictorial and build tutorial.

Thnx I will..I've already made my mind up on getting the Auqua V2. lol
I've never gotten into this style of atty - I spend too much on genisis already - but that's a nice collection!
Have you tried the Axiom hybrid? It looks like an interesting (and small) variant...

Thank you sedge for this wonderful thread! RTAs are my favorite type of RBA and I'm looking forward to your thoughts on all of this wonderful engineering. After I got my Super T ELA and Kayfun 3.1 ES I stopped looking at vape gear for a very long time, thinking it couldn't get much better. Boy, was I wrong! It's great to see atomizer technology advancing, even with all the rampant counterfeiting. That, and the advent of high wattage regulate mods, have taken vaping to a level I though was not possible without radically changing the way we do things.
Unfortunately, now that I have a Kayfun 4 and am completely blown away with it, I'm having a hard time justifying buying other RTAs.
Ignoring that, which of these do you think is better for flavor and wicking, Rose V2 or GG TILEMAHOS?

The Rose wicking, well...
Easiest is for a vertical coil or single/dual handwrapped around silica.
Hardest is the diagonal single coil build. Sometimes I whip it out in 2 minutes, and other days, just trying to get it started in a little microcoil drives me nuts.
Watch some build videos to get an idea.

Good to see you here evilfrog. My Origenny just arrived and an In'ax enroute.
I haven't seen the Axiom before. I just looked it up. Very nice design. Thank you.
It was actually but I missed the UKV list. Thanks for the kudos. Glad you're here.
Really easy to build. Excellent job engineering the posts and wire catch. It takes a bit more time to rewick since there are three. [emoji1]
Really amazing performance.
@ Steam_Bern
Both are exceptional wicking. Both have juice control and can withstand low ohms - high watts. Same with the Aquas.
The Rose is, imo, a tad better in flavor. The Tilemahos is more compact. I look forward to setting up my Rose stumpy when I find some time.
Tilmanhos easier to build and wick.

The following was asked via PM. I hope all feel comfortable to ask here so others may chime in and all may benefit.
The Eviva-T flavor and the Rose v2 both have ceramic cups which enhance flavor and give a warmer vape at lower power compared to other non-ceramic cupped atties.
The Rose allows more airflow. It is bigger and heavier unless you get the Stumpy tank kit.
Both tanks are a little tricky in mounting a coil. The Rose just cuz you have to thread the two leads and get the right leg length. The Eviva-T because you are working in the tight space of the cup. The Eviva-T is easier to wick.
The Eviva-T is perhaps a tad quicker to fill.
The Eviva-T whistles a bit. Not really whistles, but more sound from air movement.
I love them both.

Oh gosh..kinda wished you hadn't said that. Now I'm hemming and hawing again because the Rose has quite the following on the HHV Big Thread. They adore it.
