The 91% has landed I will post picks later after I take it apart and clean it and put the first build on it.Edit: This thing comes completely disassembled.The tank part is screwed together and on base.Everything else has to be assembled,all the screws insulators,washers and positive post with insulators.By the time your done with that your eyes are really not ready to build a coil.This rta is small you won't believe your eyes when you first see it up close.

Mine came fully assembled!?!?

The deck on this thing is so tiny it is almost hard to connect the coils.Everything you see on videos looks larger than it is for some reason???:vapor:

I agree the deck is much smaller than it looks in pictures, but I still find both my R91 and KFL incredibly easy to build on.

Enjoy it!

And, KEBO is supposedly shipping some of our 91%'s (the 'pre-order') - but not all. I am so amused.


What the hell? I'm in on the first round, and I hope I get in on this shipment.. It's pretty sad to have to use a random number generator for folks to get their goods right away. At least the rest are supposedly shipping next week anyway. I've waited this long.. What's another couple of weeks. :glare: Saving over 30 bucks was worth it though I guess..

The folks in round 2 will not probably see theirs until Thanksgiving at this rate..

I a sure it's a ploy - likely to introduce divisiveness and squabbling. It's a fail insomuch as we already blame china, but yeah - the happy-go-lucky attitudes are irksome.

I've a Rocket arriving today, and a Naughtyfun to pay for - the 91% will arrive when it does and the hell with it: no more KEBO, UCT, and promises.

O.K. I have found the vape i have been searching for with my Russian 91%.So far have been thru 3 tanks and 3 different juices(cleaned coil in between tanks)and it is vaping up a storm.I have a 1.4~ .05 x .01 ribbon build with 3mm silica with a figure eight wick.The vape is warm and close to being a hot vape.pillowing clouds of DRY4.

I hope this continues because i have no need of purchasing another RBA/RDA/RTA,hahahahahaha,LOL,yea right,like that is going to happen.Seriously this thing is phenominal and worth every penny.

Here's a decent wick / coiling vid I found from Navy-Lifeguard using the KFL... It's in German, but very detailed. :)


Navycoil für Kayfun V3 / V3.1 / Lite - YouTube

Here's a build based on that, in English :)

Got my 91% today. Set up nicely however, I get tons of flavor, not much vapor and too harsh of a TH. What's the cause? Coil too close or too far away from the air hole?
Running 28aw with silica/eko at 0.8-1.3ohms. No wicking issues & again, great flavor, not much vapor and harsh TH.

Somebody help me out.

Thanks

Did you clean the entire device real good before filling,including the deck?? You could be getting some of that machine oil burning off in the tank causing it.Do you have a hot spot in the coil anywhere?Did you do a dry burn to check before filling??EDIT: Did you pack the wick too tight down the channels??

I have no problems with flavor. I don't taste machine oil. I get incredible flavor of my juices & have cleaned it off by breaking it all down and cleaning each part & rebuilding with new coils before I put new juice in because I want a set up that doesnt have this harsh TH & no vapor problem. I've made coils 0.8-1.3 ohms positioned over the air hole. I think the first set up I made I packed the eko down but didn't have any problems with wicking whatsoever and I have since stopped packing it down on my set-ups and continue to not have any wicking issues at all.

Everything is great except for this:
not much vapor & very harsh TH. I have a hard time not coughing after taking a few pulls because its so harsh and its wrecking my throat.

Have yet to try micro coils but I suspect the harshness/TH factor may be attributed to by distance of coil from the air hole, similar concept as with a geny whereby if the air hole is closest to the coil you get more vapor and flavor, further away more TH less vapor, however this is a much different set up than a geny. So with this I have tried keeping my coil closer to the air hole but not touching obviously to avoid short potential and this is still what I get. Anyone that is able to get thick clouds mind sharing some suggestions like how far away from the air hole/base do you keep your coil?

Most likely airflow, open up your draw and make sure your coil is in a good position over the airhole. Sometimes when putting the chimney together your wick might get tweaked.

Thank you handbanana! I tend to prefer tighter draws so I had it closed and when I opened it up the vapor increased significantly! Yay! THANK YOU!

Just a heads-up, for what it's worth. I picked one up today from Viper Vapor in L.A. (not sure if they're associated with Viper Vape). Price was $95 + tax. The crew there said they had plenty in stock, though I can't find it on their website. Not quite sure if they ship, either, but there you go. Beautiful clone. Assembled in 15 min. Thick, consistent clouds. Thumbs up.
