Been There, Done that too...OK, first time I forgot to re-open the juice flow control. It never was a matter of if but instead a matter of when. Got about five big puffs in before I realized my wick was thirsting for more juice. Good way to learn.
Ima gettin old I suppose?!?
Haha easy to forget!OK, first time I forgot to re-open the juice flow control. It never was a matter of if but instead a matter of when. Got about five big puffs in before I realized my wick was thirsting for more juice. Good way to learn.
And I thought for the rest, I'd follow up as I think just like the other poster, this seemed to have cured the issue of my juice control freezing solid.
I opened the generous bag of replacement o-rings and used the circled ones on the left. The ones with the x's through them were the ones I took off with a toothpick. Wasn't the easiest thing in the world... Haha. But man - all is 100% now! Buttery smooth all the time!
And here's the pics of the base with the old rings, then the new installed. You can kinda see the difference. Not huge, but enough to make that difference in getting frozen and not getting frozen.
Old (bigger)
New (smaller)
Hopefully this helps someone else along the way! Credit to @Bird Dog for the suggestion!!

Also - I'm considering these to hold spare oil on my Keychain.. My Innokin Ucan is just so big and heavy. Awesome, but so big and heavy....
Looking for smaller options now that my wife's new car can't just use a small key... With push button starting, the "key" is her (not small) remote transmitter thing. So I've gotta carry that around now.

Thank You Stanley for the Pix!!!
The new O-Rings are the same size as the ones removed.
Just my Mechanical Opinion, Jim
This is excellent information and the pics speak a thousand words. Your post should be must-viewing for all KM3 owners.Haha easy to forget!

So if any of you breezed by Stan's post I urge you to go back and review it for either current or future use (and to help others you run into who will undoubtedly benefit from this advice). I remember when the original KFL was released. Many were getting leakage from the fill screw. The solution for many was to use the spare refill screw. Of course, SM ultimately addressed this problem with the KFL Plus. But back then, using the spare was a good remedy for many. Q remembers.
I'm still holding out hope of the ability to add a 22mm tank piece to this KFMV3. I remember @qorax mentioning interchangeable parts/etc... I mean it might look a little silly for it to go from 19mm and baloon out to 22mm for the tank - but I'm thinking there are possibilities for this concept to exist. Maybe if it ballooned out to like 20 or 21 mm for more capacity in some way?

You were warned.
That's 3 of us who vaped with the JC closed. I'm sure the list will grow.
When I first started driving I was warned not to drive like a raped ape but it didn't stop me from getting in a wreck. The wrecks taught me way more than the advice. Fortunately I survived them.
Call em the "flavors of the week" (or day - haha). But I'm loving these two atty's right now!!

Hey guys, just received mine yesterday and the first build was working great. Then later on that night and this morning I was getting some gurgling and flooding [emoji34]. How are you guys wicking your kayfuns??? By the way I am not new to the kayfuns scene or rebuilding in general, so I was a bit surprised to be having this issue
Hmmm. Try rewicking the thing using different amounts of wick material. I'm guessing you have too little. Make your wick wider, perhaps. And as long as it just touches the deck (similar to other Kayfun builds) you should be OK. If that fails, go in the other direction and make your wick thinner. Also, it never hurts to check your o-rings. Maybe just change the inner one and see what happens. Some things to try.
Hello to all, it's been a long time since posting here because of various things but I'm pretty excited about this new kayfun. I have had them all except the v4 which, for some reason, never appealed to me. I think it just looked to big, especially because my main tank has been the erlk since partially ditching my kfl's due to getting used to more airflow over a year ago. Anyways i love smaller profile tanks and this new kayfun looks awesome! So I'm ordering one and can't wait to re join discussions. Quick question guys, to anyone that has an erlk and the k3m, can you compare airflow? On my erlks, I vape it without the ring and just curious how that compares with the new kayfun mini. Thanks
