Vapor Freak have a cloned version of XS for sale already.

It's not exactly the same but the principle is.

The cloned version from fasttech that I have has a 1 piece top cap and chimney - I haven't touched my kayfun since I got the clone, I much prefer the vape I get from it.

I'll do the the decent thing and buy an original Taifun - and a Squape after that.

It's two FT TGT half tank ss pieces cut down and bored out with zen short 22mm OD tank glued to the ss collars.

Help! New Taifun user. Is been are awesome about a week or so. Just broke it down to try a new build. Didn't think I touched anything but the chamber drop and the coil. All back together and is vaping great but leaking out of the air hole.

Anybody know what would cause this particular leak? A certain o-ring?

Note... I found a tiny black o-ring (maybe 1/4" wide?) on my dresser. Don't know if it's from Taifun or something else. Didn't notice it come out or off

Any ideas?

that sounds about the same size as the little one that's on the air tube/post, the one that's part of the top cap. if that ones missing it will FLOOD bigtime ;)

Thanks Nelson. I was just looking at that. But can't see where it would go. Does it go inside of tube when upside down like when filling?

Wait... It looks like it may go in the top under the dip tip? About to watch some videos but I'll be checking back

Finally got my Taifun clone from Fasttech. Holy cow this thing is awesome! I've never had such a good solid vape before. I like this much better than my Kaifun 3.1 clone. I think I'm going to buck up for a real version of this because it's that good. May pick up a few more from Slowtech too. I'm only running a 2 ohm coil too, can't wait to see how much better it is wih something lower. I also got a fogger in the same shipment and this thing blows it away. Although i got to say so far no major flooding issues with the fogger.

Just like to share my mesh build. It's very simple and has no flooding issues whatsoever and provides great flavor.

It's pretty much the same as the PBusardo build but instead of putting Silica wick all across the top to prevent leaking simply cut two small pieces and put them on the sides, it completely stops leaking and the mesh wick gets an unobstructed airflow towards your drip tip. Make sure you cut the excess Silica when you secure the top, don't have it blocking your mesh.
