I'm right there with you. I thought it was great at first, but the constant seeping, lack of flavor as a dual coil, and tight air flow caused me to move on. I just wish I realized it before I bought three of them.

If you have the Wotofo nexM it is well worth the $7-8 to buy the rba deck. You'll be able to sell those blottos here soon.

 

[Zazie]

Yes, you can. In fact that's how our Qorax Stan runs his.

See his most excellent video on Page 1, it's in Bronze's first post. Authentic Svoemesto Kayfun Lite - 2019 & 2021 Version

If you decide to run yours without the nylon grub screw make sure your wick shoulders are not touching the center AF block. If they are, you run the possible risk of juice flowing onto the block and down the AF into the 510 assembly of your mod.

On all my RTA's I make sure the wick shoulders are away from the center AF block. Here is a photo of how I do it. It's the Tripod deck which has a similar design much like all the modern Kayfun's.
View attachment 935201 Wick shoulders are away from the center AF block.

Qorax Stan had no problems running his without the grub screw.

Alternatively... you could leave it in and back off the grub screw for more air. With, or without, the AF grub screw you'll still get a maximum of 1.8mm AF.

Don't back the nylon grub screw out too far or some mods may not see the atty. I knowz this from experience.

Good. I hate that fiddly little thing.

P.S. I have a designated pin that I use to nudge the shoulders of my wicks away from the air flow.

Happy Monday, shinies <3 Got a load of juice today.

First one out of the box? Banana frosted flakes. I'd say this is probably my all time favorite juice if I were to say such a thing. I have a ton of it on hand now but eventually running out still gives me the shivers

I use a paperclip (sometimes a sewing needle). I set the paperclip under a shoulder while tucking a tail in to the juice well. Then I nudge the shoulder away from the AF. Pull the paperclip and done. It works well if you lightly juice the wick up before tucking.

Where’s the motorcycle?? I didn’t recognize you in the truck

Grrrrrrr.....

broke my second tank glass in over 3 years of vaping. Good thing is- it’s a sub ohm tank and I bought back up tanks for ALL my favorite tanks !! Phew!

Now I just have to find the correct glass. I got a bit lazy labeling the packages when I was getting 4-6 Vape mail boxes a day!! Wonderful memories So, I’ve got A LOT of glass to look through !!

My yorkie Haley and I got five bombed by 2 very hawks circling over my yard. This is the 3rd time in 2 years. Now my neighbor tells me her video alarm camera has been showing 2-3 coyotes strolling down the street late at night. I use to be to enjoy my yard with a book but now I follow Haley around night & day as her body guard !!

Good reminder to order replacement glass while you still have time. FYI I purchased some at Fasttech, VapingBest and EBay when vape life use to be so much fun.

So how’s everyone else doing today?

Never realized before how much Frank Zappa resembled an old boyfriend of mine. Right down to the great nose.

and why are thinking about that right now? Watching a Zappa video?? And yes that was a tremendous nose

 

[Fidola13]

Zappa always looks to me like he's a Sesame Street puppet

Bwaaahaaaahass !!!

 

[AngeNZ]

Thanks for the info AnzeNz,think i will stick with the DL FL,i am a simple man so no need for inserts,just put in the coil,wick and be done

Already counting the pennies to pay for the order i got in the cart and you had to go there didn't you?
Thanks for reminding me about the Destiny clone but...

View attachment 935229

These days just vaping on one flavor alone and my Destiny RTA still works so this order is pretty much a severe case of shinyitis

But yeah i need me a little pick me up in the form of vape mail so end of the month i am throwing caution to the wind and getting me some vape gear

Duh, sorry I thought you were Destinyless

And regarding the coils and lots of different numbers, I could give you a long geeky answer. Or just show you a gorgeous geek

Tired of my job in 2004, I let an old boyfriend talk me into going to truck driving school and riding with him as team drivers. I already had my class B license but needed class A. I got it and got on the truck with him. It lasted about one week before a major fight. Two more weeks of many fights. One can sure get on another person's nerves in that tiny space. I was across the country when I decided I was through but did the rest of the work getting back so I could get paid. Because I had gone to the trouble of getting the license I went and found a job on a truck on my own. I hated it. I was always late. Any break I had I was trying to get my log book to justify and never got a nap. I asked a couple of older truckers at stops "tell me what I am missing about this job that I know some people love"
They said the same thing you just said. Too much gov interference took it from being a good job to being a hard one. I had a home and missed my home. I was always afraid the truck would be on fire and I would not know it. I was always tired and when I finally did get to sleep some and then woke up, I was sure I must have side-swiped a few cars before I stopped to sleep. Nothing fun about it at all for me. I went back to my old job.

Interesting account of someone who actually did the work.

When I was about 11 or 12 my cousin in his spectacular truck rig visited my family. That rig had EVERY imaginable items to make it as comfortable as possible. And After sitting in that big leather drivers seat with hydraulic spring to eliminate a lot of the I fell I love!! From then on all I wanted to do was drive a truck! The nuns weren’t totally pleased with this !!!

What build do you like in yours Zazie?

I'm boring, remember: 28g kanthal, 2.5mm ID.

 

[AngeNZ]

this old place is missed.
seems to be rolling on at the same old relentless speed however which is nice to see.
hope you are all doing as well as possible considering the current climate.

It's awesome to see you The cute lamb from last time, is now gorgeous and big. Instead you get one of my rural sunrises

That's a good idea, placing the paperclip (or pin, in m case) before tucking in the tails. I've been inserting the pin after tucking, and sometimes I pull the tails right out, which is most annoying.

Still here, just changing it up.

And there is a name next to the pic to help with that.

Georgia says heyView attachment 934505

hey Georgia - I hope you have a full bridge

Well I'll just talk amongst myself.
They're predicting upwards of five inches of rain here in the next 24 hours with more to come in the following days. Flash floods etc. 18 foot swells. Huge mouse plague out of control in the west of the state too. Biblical stuff.
That's it. I'm done.

Ive had some good luck with getting glass and o-rings on Wish. I got a set of 5 replacement glass and 5 o-ring packs for the Prince TFV12 for about $15 after shipping. I've seen other models of replacement glass too, you just got to search.
