    Very nice. Nailz, is this your first KFL19?

    I know how you love your Prime's. Will be curious to hear your thoughts on the KFL19 after you've given her the goings over.

    I wouldn't be able to pick one over the other. I love the JFC, top fill and AFC ring on the Prime. However I really like the smaller size of the KFL19. I'm used to, and don't mind, bottom fill from the OG KFL's, Russian's and Dvarw's.

    Hope you enjoy it. :)

    Yes it is my 1st one, never bothered getting one, as liked my primes so much, but with things getting tougher to get, thought be wise to grab one, not set it up yet, probably be the weekend before I give it a clean and get up and running :)

    Good afternoon shiny ones :wub:

    Despite already owning 4 Aspire Mixxes, I really really really would love a frosted one. A couple of Oz sites have them so far

    Which one will you go for? Possibly all? jk or maybe not :lol:

    Bigger? You got it, I've enlarged NZ's footprint in the world and pushed you slightly North. @AngeNZ will be upset with me because more north = warmer summers. Might be less windy though.

    Hey, Aussies... I've nudged you more into the Indian O. Y'all might get more rain there.


    Ok geography buffs, how come none of you have noticed, or mentioned, what's missing??? I'm disappointed in you. ;) :D :lol:

    Easter Island (Isla de Pascua) and a couple of little New Zealand islands too.

    On another front I have more than couple of very interesting items in the pipeline for review :D

    Done. New thread posted here on ecf and discussion started on the FT site for this SKU. Thanks for the link and advice SMT.

    Perfect :wub: It's a pita adding pictures at FT as you need them hosted elsewhere. Since they are already here on ECF, I wrote up a post using all the code needed to post them. If you copy and paste the code below
    Code:
    Pictures:
    
    The airflow inserts came chipped and with plastic shavings all over
    [img]https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/attachments/arise-clone-af-inserts-jpg.921847/  [/img]
    
    chimney reducer is totally and deeply blocked with some type of glue or plastic weld
    [img]https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/attachments/arise-clone-chimney-reducer-jpg.921849/[/img]
    
    The main and most disturbing issue with this clone is the 510 pin.
    When it is fully screwed in the pin doesn't protrude properly - so no good positive contact

    PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS RTA ON A MECH MOD.

    Fantastic collection, and I know you will do these brands proud :wub:

    And the smoke frosted is leading the race, so far :thumbs:

    Yup! Surgical Scissor 1, my finger 0 :facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:

    I'd finished cutting off the wick tails, and was only cleaning my scissors when dumbness ocurred. Wiped the blades down with a tissue, and my finger got in the way :facepalm:

    So I wrapped up my finger, primed the Dvarw, filled its tank and finished the job.
    done.jpg

    It's a bloody deep cut (pun intended:facepalm:) but at least I still have my middle finger (for now :facepalm:)
    :D



    No Dvarws were harmed during this experiment

    Glad you'll be ok.

    Noticed the juice in your Dvarw has a reddish tint to it. ;)

    Hmmm, there is a song...

    Hey @AngeNZ, I'm shopping around for drip tips for my Dvarws on FT. I know you are a drip tip and Dvarw aficionado. What would be your recommendation for one that fits well in a Dvarw? I bought some a while back that don't fit great.

    Most of mine all fit no problem. Is it too loose? if so, change the o-rings with another drip tip that is a tighter fit, or from a Dvarw MTL drip tip.

    I mainly use these ones:
    $5.75 Resin 510 Drip Tip (4 Pieces) 4-pack - 15mm / random colors at FastTech - Free Shipping

    Here's some with a MTL bore size
    $4.11 Authentic Clrane Resin 510 Drip Tip (3 Pieces) 3-pack - 16.5mm / ships one of each color at FastTech - Free Shipping

    $1.61 Resin 510 Drip Tip - 17mm / random colors at FastTech - Free Shipping

    Zlide DTs
    $10.07 5PCS Authentic Innokin Replacement Resin Drip Tip for 22mm/24mm Zlide Tank 5-pack - 19mm at FastTech - Free Shipping

    $7.88 5PCS AOLVAPE Epoxy Resin 510 Drip Tip 5-pack - 17.4mm at FastTech - Free Shipping

    I have some that are too tight, like I have to jam it in there. I also purchased some that are too loose. I feel like Goldilocks. I just want some that are just right. Not a bad idea about switching the o-rings.

    Ange you never cease to amaze me.

    I've copied the entire window titled "code" in your post. Do I now just paste the whole thing as one piece and send the reply?
    Or do I need to isolate the code lines one by one?

    TIA

    Edit: all done. Pasted and posted the whole lot - great work Ange

    @Pigs I'm glad you posted about that version of the Arise RTA. I had it wish-listed - it's now unwish-listed. I'm sticking to Dvarw DLs :thumbs:
    I've got the Ulton version coming ..... their clones are usually really good. You may put it back on your wish list when I report back.....when it gets here :D
