Who is the first to hit 2021?
Way to go!More on the SXK Kayfun 5 Squared SE clone:
Here's the box I mentioned. Maybe the type of clone some dodgy B&M retailers would pass off as an authentic. (No I haven't tried the QR code!)

Because of the design of the deck and post screw position the coil wants to be really close to the AF. I'm running it in the most open mode (4 mm AF) but it's still more restricted than the Dvarw DL with the 3.5mm AF insert. That's with an 810 DT on the KF and a 510 on the Dvarw. I put it down to the low coil position and the narrow chimney on the KF. I don't have calipers so can't give you an accurate chimney diameter. This build is 3mm ID. I'll try 2.5mm next to maybe get a little more air.

If the post screws were offset you could fit bigger coils but I'm not sure the atty wants them. Definitely a restricted DL vape. The 810 DT is deceptive - this is not a big airy cloud chucker.
The wicking and juice flow took me a while to sort out and will take me a while longer to find the sweet spot. The Dvarw DL is such a simple, bullet proof design so I've got lazy. Nice to have a bit of a challenge again.
The flavour is excellent and I love the 7 ml juice capacity.
The machining is as good as any clone I've seen.
I've only had it for half a day so these are early impressions. I get the feeling this RTA will take a while to get the best out of. So far so good and for $14.95 I'd recommend it for sure.

It's a tall tank (62.5mm without DT) so perfect for an SBS that fits 25mm diameter attys. (@AngeNZ I tried it on the Mixx with the tank guard on and you were right - too tight)
Hi Ange and the beautiful Luna.
Here's some advice for some point and shoot cameras copied from our resident expert at my estate agency......both point and shoot mirror less and DSLR's...
Let me know and I can send some more info. It's always best to get an interchangeable lens camera IMO and they're still better than phones although some phones have such good cameras that they will do in most circumstances. Depends on the camera though....only certain phones are decent enough.....for real estate read landscape photography.
Hope this helps and let me know if you'd like further info
1- Best choice in your 600€ budget for CAMERA + LENS is :
CANON EOS 800D : https://www.eglobalcentral.fr/canon...e-lp-e17-appareil-photo-numerique-reflex.html
CANON 10-18mm lens : https://www.eglobalcentral.fr/canon-ef-ef-s-10-18mm-f-4-5-5-6-is-stm-objectif.html
This camera is not only good for stills, it is also a great video camera, the auto focus system from canon called " dual pixel AF " is simply the best in the world at tracking moving subjects, ideal for interviews, low light situations etc. It comes on top of the fact that it has a large APS-C sensor ensuring a nice image quality. It shoots RAW ( please refer to my previous email on that topic and the great benefit of shooting raw pictures when it comes to process them in lightroom classic CC ).
2-Alternative small size factor mirorless option ( in the same 600€ budget ) :
CANON EOS M6, great for stills and for video. Tactile screen... https://www.eglobalcentral.fr/canon-eos-m6-appareil-photo-numerique-avec-ef-m-15-45mm-kit-blanc.html
review Canon EOS M6 Review
CANON 11-22mm for EOS M series cameras. https://www.eglobalcentral.fr/canon-ef-m-11-22mm-f-4-5.6-is-stm-objectif-fr.html
excellent stabilized ultra wide angle lens, ultra sonic auto focus, fast, accurate.
Those 2 cameras also accept external microphones if you plan to film people talking, it's a great option.
3- The most affordable combination in a super reduced budget with almost professional results ( if you post process the images in LR CLASSIC CC ) is
-CANON EOS 4000D at 215€ : https://www.eglobalcentral.fr/canon-eos-4000d-kit-avec-18-55-iii-objectif-reflex-numerique.html
nothing comes close at that price when you know it also comes with a good stabilized kit lens that covers most needs.
-CANON 10-18mm ultra wide angle lens, stabilized, 192€ : https://www.eglobalcentral.fr/canon-ef-ef-s-10-18mm-f-4-5-5-6-is-stm-objectif.html
simply the best choice for real estate and also the most affordable lens whatever the brands. Total budget here is around 400€ for a great setup.
It lacks some features especially in video and inputs for microphones etc... but at that price point, you still get an insanely good lens + super large sensor that works in low light.
Be aware that eglobalcentral is super long to deliver packages, it took me almost 3 weeks to get my new FUJI from them... it finally arrived but had to almost yell at them on their french facebook page, that's the downside of such low prices.
Canon cameras are built like tank and normally they are almost undestructible.
Voilà, personnally I would probably go for the mirorless version, light weight, excellent image quality, excellent video and options, you can carry it around everywhere. I won't recommand SONY, NIKON, FUJI.... etc... not because they are not good ( they are excellent) but because the lenses on these brands, especially ultra wide angle lenses, are super expensive, 600, 800, 1500 euros... and even more on some SONY cameras. That's why I still recommand CANON and the most recent models with dual pixel AF are stunning ( the first 2 above ).
Enjoy !
Going to venture into white chocolate.
Ange,my first hearing of wc was from you.do you have a brand?
@Letitia flavor expert are you out there?![]()
Happy New Year to you Boudica down in the land of the long white cloud.and @ShowMeTwice in the USA,I want a GS dog, ,,,something yo said SMT. Kia Kaha (Be Strong)
Thanks for the guidance on choosing which Kayfun to try. I really like it. And Bludger does look pleased.Way to go!It looks nice on the Chunky Monkey. And it looks like Bludger approves.

You're welcome and I'm happy you like it. I really don't know why Svoemesto went with an 810. Maybe for the cloud crowd??? IDK. Personally I think they should have made it a 510.Thanks for the guidance on choosing which Kayfun to try. I really like it. And Bludger does look pleased.
I'm scratching my head a bit about the choice of DT though. The chimney bore is roughly 3.5mm - slightly narrower than the Dvarw DL. (Dvarw on left) which as we know takes a 510
View attachment 924233
Maybe it was an aesthetic design choice to go with an 810 on top. Any idea?
I'm mucking around with 510 adapters but haven't found one that looks right yet
