THANKS for ALL the Helpful Information, although i now have a few questions to get it straight and about accessories,


SO First my current understanding of the devices.


Kayfun 3.1
: largest device, (largest tank?), AFC and JC?

Kayfun lite: Smaller base all same as 3.1 but no AFC or JC?

KFL+: Smaller base design than 3.1 but same functions AFC and JC?

Russian: I dont really understand this one i thought its basically a KFL+ but came out when the KFL did so it wast first to be small base with b oth AFC and JC?

...

I'm still trying to figure out what "JC" means. juice control?

Here's a pic of my 2014 tobeco clone KFL+ "Better quality than previous versions IMO, same as The popular Black edition" from eBay for $36 with a nano kit.

Couldn't be happier for purchasing a clone, thinking of making a hybrid adapter for the nemesis same as the fusion mods design. Trying to get it as small as possible.

Invalid Attachment specified. Please verify :) Also, can you tell us where you got it and does it whistle?

I bought it of eBay, I just looked and there is currently only one around the same price $36 + $3 ship by seller zavermot. Same one I have but my shipping was free. I bought the nano kit separate for an additional $22. As far a whistle, I don't seem to have any just the sound of air being sucked in. I believe this version "same as Black Edition" has a slightly larger air hole over the pre 2014 editions. Same as black edition but $14 cheaper and comes in the standard box not a fancy black one lol.

Edit: there is a lengthy thread on here somewhere about the "The Black Edition" if you wanna search around to confirm the quality etc. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...295-kayfun-lite-plus-black-clone-edition.html

Kayfun Lite Plus w SS Clear Tank Adjustable 510 Pin Bottom Airflow Fill Screw | eBay

I believe some ppl have encountered a whistle but it was due to there being a burr stuck in the air flow and was solved by removing via a good cleaning, which should be done anyway to get rid of any machining oil left behind from the manufacturing process. So just beware of that, not saying if you get one it's absolutely guaranteed that it won't whistle right out of the box without a full disassemble and cleaning.

Can you share eBay link for this one? I'm willing to pay more for the clone if it doesn't whistle. I just don't want to drill it))

The one thing really nice about that Kayfun Lite clone that "Top-Shelf" posted a link for is that it has an adjustable center pin.

Even the latest version of an authentic SvoëMesto Kayfun Lite Plus (v2) does not have the adjustable 510 connector center pin.

That was one of the main reasons I bought this version, with the 510 pin screwed in all the way all my batteries "AW button top and a different flat top batt" fit in my nemesis with top and bottom adjustment screws all the way tight. Which I love cause I don't have to make any adjustments to the nemesis when switching between different battery types.

I'm very disappointed that the genuine KFL+v2 still lacks an adjustable center pin. I've read that the new version of R91 will have a one-piece center tube with a spring loaded pin. I'm waiting to see this new version. Now Svoemesto has fallen two steps behind.

I don't know if this has been mentioned in this thread, but a big difference to me is the location of the air adjustment screw. It's a real pain to unscrew the atty to make an adjustment to a bottom screw or hex headed screw. Making the task even harder is the fact that the air adjustment screw does not adjust smoothly. It takes 5-6 turns before any effect on the air flow and then everything happens in the final half turn of the screw.

First Sorry for talk about juice control its a feature of the Aqua i just didn't know it was unique to it i thought the aqua was basically a kayfun but with 2 air holes for dual coils.

:offtopic:
Small Aqua Rant: :grr: My Largest Gripe with the Aqua is the posts I believe that is what makes it a PITA first thumb screws in such a small area, Bad idea. Next if the posts had holes then i could build it in half the time! right now I have to keep both coils in a rod of some sort wrap each lead the correct way so it doesn't spit out the wire then grab my needle nose pliers to tighten them down and most of the time at least one lead will need to be reset too. Now with holes in the posts all i would have to do is push the leads in the holes grab a min i screw driver and tighten them down boom. SO sorry but I NEEDED to say it even if no one cares lol (one of those things i feel better now lol)


Now back on subject

Now from what I have been reading it seams like Most people like KFL+ And finding out they are like $20 on FT i think it may be my first choice i just need to find out which one i want as FT has Many KFL+ and does not tell much about differences (just knowing the manufacturer would be enough for me) SO I'm going to look at FT for the Best KFL+ if Anyone Knows which is best and can please post the SKU number for me it will help.

Before reading that everyone likes thier KFL+ that is what i am going to go for. I was Going to get the 3.1 on FT that comes in the fancy black box as it looked like the best quality version they had of the 3.1.

Also i have heard a lot about the "BLACK EDITION" not the black coated one but the one that supposedly has larger air holes upgraded insulators and i believe an adjustable 510 connection silver plated? (Still a clone but modified) ALTHOUGH right now its not available and last time it was it was $49.99 and came with a MAP tank. Maybe ill get that one after i get one from FT and decide i need it or not. I know there is a rebuild kit for kayfuns so i never have to worry about that.

Also I have read here also that the screw fill hole is best? is that due to leaking or filling ease (ill use a syringe tip bottle if i have too) just want to make sure I'm getting the right one.

So right now my list of most desirable first
  1. Kayfun Lite +
  2. Kayfun 3.1 (possibly due to the hybrid connector, my Aqua is in Hybrid mode and it just looks and works GREAT)

(although I don't know if i want a KFL+ or a Russian 91%)

I just don't understand the difference between the Russians and Kayfuns now?:confused:.

:unsure:

THANKS FOR ALL THE POSTS

Check out eh pro. I have 4 now. The first two were gotten a while ago.. both consistent with each other, but the two I've gotten recently have a ~2mm airhole, and there wasn't any derlin caught in these. The first two, I had to pull a little insulator out of airflow, and they weren't drilled right through 510pin.. one is pretty tight, the other is nice and airy, if I want it to be. B.

well after going to FT I am not sure if they carry KFL's or KFL+'s So weary of that I like the Russian 91% they have with logo version I think ill get that unless the KFL's they have are KFL+ or not one thing i would like to know is if i wanted to is the Russian compatible with the nano kit?

So i put a few things in my basket and just waiting for more info before i pull the trigger on the purchase. right now here are the SKU of the stuff i got in my cart

Russian 91%, Stainless Steel, w/ Logo
Russian 91% Styled Rebuildable Atomizer Kit (4.5mL)

SKU 1648700

Kayfun Lite, Stainless Steel + Black Tank
Kayfun Lite Styled Rebuildable Atomizer (4.5mL)

SKU 1662502

See how the KFL title says nothing about plus i think i will need to get the Russian unless i can find a good price on ebay for a KFL+ if the Russian I want is not good and the KFL is not + Soo off to ebay i go
