Guys I need help. For the life of me I cannot get this set up to wick properly. It's either dry or flooding. I want to use silica or ekowool not cotton. That's my kayfun setup. I have 26, 28,30, and 32 gauge kanthal. I have 2mm eko and 1.5mm silica. Help me please!
Please tell me how you did this... did you drill down through the deck or in from the outside... or both? What happens to all the metal shavings? I'm new at drilling stuff out... and nervous. But mine draws way too tight even with the air tube removed.
Drilled mine out to 7/64. And wow. Tons of vapor and flavor. Also took out the air tube and bushing. This thing hits like a dripper. I'm in love.
ok, so i have been waiting for sunshine to take a decent picture of my 2 bases. alas, i've not have had much luckand once again, here's bap to the rescue! unless i'm completely wrong this picture:
Just got my replacement SS decks from fast tech. They are SS. Taifun not so bad. First build with mesh was ok but I don't really like the flavor. Went for the 3mm silica on top which helped a lot. Was getting big time leaking before that. Want to rebuild with cotton and micro coil. I removed the air tube which made all the difference in the world.

you must be talking about bap's red base in the quoted post - i believe that was available from either kanger or sigelei - bap will chime in, i'm sure

There are several places that sell them, they are just an aluminum base with 510 threading. IIRC I got mine from Stormys, but have seen them sold several places.
Just so's I'm clear, we're talking about these atomizer seats, right?
That's my understanding
I wonder why there are so many more clones/variations of the Kayfun/Russian than there are of the Taifun. I like both, and all I have to go on are clones, but the Taifun seems easier to build. When people ask me about these kinds of RTAs, I always suggest a Taifun first, and then a Kayfun or Russian if they just want something different or something new to tinker with. Just thinkin' out loud. Errr...typing....silently. Well mostly silently.

My experience with the Taifun is that it has a much tighter draw (and less flavor) than the russian; yet it's easier to build, but my first build also got a leak...
Here is a summary of my experience

I find the draw on my taifun the same as my kayfun using the biggest airtube for the taifun. and I find the taifun has a tad better flavor. I use both with micro coils and cotton...
This isn't to really debate what the guys drilling out to 7/64" are achiving because their clouds kind of speak for themselves.
However I wanted to point out a couple things from the internal aspect. This is a clone....I'm working on getting specs and pics of the inside of an authentic TGT, because I see no need to take mine apart. That and I don't think the authentic TGT will be a lot different.
Once you get the air tube and bushing out and drill out the side air hole to 7/64" there is still some limiting factors. Again this is a FT clone, but there is an angled hole in the chamber base that goes to the air tube hole, this is ~5/64". However look at the second pic with the disk installed, it looks to restrict even more.
