Svoemesto Kayfun Mini V3

Cripes. That exchange rate changed dramatically in the past year. That's at levels I haven't seen since late 90's, early 2000's.

Importing doesn't help either. Paypal charges, conversion rates AND the dreaded Custom Duties! I have no idea how those #&@%*s charge us - but I've paid between $20-50 to UPS even for free items which are coming to me for testing! Invoiced as "0". For priced items I've paid till $65

A KM3 for me would come out to around $158 Canadian.

Duty charges from Canada Customs are pretty low 1% to 3% generally.

USP, Fedex and that crowd all charge "brokerage fees" and the rates are ridiculously high and goes straight in their pocket. So much so that I refuse to buy from companies that will not ship via post.

Canada Post charges $5.00 for brokerage. (maybe 7.50 now) I rarely pay customs for mail orders, keep the value below $200 and it just shows up with no fees at all.

I have never noticed any customs or brokerage charges from Paypal. No idea what that is about.

What did they describe the charge as?

From Gunk to Glory

I guess a fee to change from dollar to whatever currency Cream De Vape uses. First time they have ever charged me a fee.

Which batts are yiou using in the Tiny? I have the efests but am seeing a lot of voltage drop under load even into 1.3ohms at 12.5 watts...i guess i should clean the contacts but its brand new so i doubt thats it. Not sure what the internal res of those batts is but looks like a lot at the moment..

Yeah I went cheap on the basis the efests are supposed to be rewrapped sanyos's. Just changed it out for the second one and it seems a bit better. At least it doesnt seem to be the mod which is what I was worried about...

 

[Carnage9270]

I think there's something that most people miss with rewrapped batteries. They aren't any specific battery. They are whatever was cheaper for them at the time of purchase. Some may be samsungs, some may be sanyos. It just depends on the cost and availability when they purchase the current batch. So one persons 40A battery will be a 20 amp samsung and another persons 40A battery will be a sanyo 15A battery. But rest assured, they wont be what they advertise it as.....ever.

Most people that buy them do so because it's a tweakers dream. But I will say this about the DNA 200, when you vape above normal one cell battery voltage (happens a lot) it produces a much smoother vape. Think it has something to do with buck/boost circuitry.

So I think it's less about having 200W available, and more about setting your vape exactly how you want it. It's crazy the things you can do with it.

Isn't this what we do already do with whatever wattage mod we have?

I just take the wick tails and stuff them down there.

That works to really and once you get them down there, it doesn't take any time really to straighten them out. See I use a blunt tip needle for positioning , fluffing, and tucking, so it doesn't really do that good of a job tucking in a dry wick. I can use a flat head screw driver but I like my little blunt tip, so I find if I just wet the wick first, my blunt tip tucks it easier because it's more solid compares to dry

So a couple nights ago I had to rewick mine, so I decided to try some Native Wicks cotton I had laying around (bought different cotton when I was experimenting...), still using the same spaced N80 coil

I still preferred KGD out of all the ones I tried but felt like experimenting a little with the Mini...

I decided to remove the deck tonight to take a look at the wick, still looks clean!

Compared to the KGD wick after a couple days

I feel like the flavor is still good, even after a couple days, so I'll keep using it tomorrow and see how it goes. With KGD I almost have to re-wick after a couple days, 2-3 tanks a day.

Flavor is about the same on both, maybe a tiny bit better using KGD. The Native Wick needs a little break-in time, flavor got much better after a tank-full, but it looks like it's going to last longer.

I'm going to give rayon a try next and see how it compares.

Although I believe rayon and kgd are very close in flavor, I feel if wicked just right, rayon outlasts the cotton in time between rewicks.
