I am looking into this and was wondering what are some of the pro's to this. I do know how to make coils. I am a big fan of my carto tanks but hate to keep having to buy new carto's every month. I only have a few flavors that I use and usually vape the same flavor all day.

Does this taste similar to a carto tank? And can you adjust the airflow. I don't want a airy draw....something similar to a carto would be great! I am also looking at the clone of this at first to see if I like it. Any opinions would be most appreciated!

Thanks!

Use Carto Tanks and Kayfuns
Not even close - Kayfun can deliver a more pronounced flavor using Cotton wicking.
Maintenance is a simple as removing tank and chimney, pull the wick and rinse everything. Dry burn the coil and re-wick. Assemble and fill for a few more tanks of Joy.
Kafun feels more secure in the pocket. Always worried of a slipping tank with my carto setups. Worked out back for several hours today with the Neme/Kayfun in pocket.

Kayfun lite has a close draw to a Boge Carto(new) KFL + allows for adjustment.

    The flavors much better than any carto tank IMO . My microcoils are two months old and going strong in my Kayfuns , and when it is time to rebuild it cost me less then 10 cents to do it with 28ga wire and cotton balls , rewicking is also a simple matter using cotton . If you get the KFL+ with airflow control you'll be able to fine tune your vape in a way that's physically impossible for a carto tank , you'll have complete control over every aspect from resistance and wicking to airflow and draw . What'ya waitin for ,git orderin ! :)

    I was (and still am) a fan of carto tanks, but the Kayfun does have more flavor. I also find it more entertaining. I can prime a carto tank in under 2 minutes, but then it's done and I'm bored. With the Kayfun I am obsessed with making the perfect coil. I sit and wrap coils while reading the forum, but most of them end up in a jar for future use. I like to experiment and be creative. It sure beats the hell out of crocheting.

    I have a "Black Edition" clone, but not a black one (Lol!). This is where it comes from: Custom Mod Creation

    :thumb: This. Everyone knows me as the cartotank guy. I've been using them for nearly 2 years as my primary juice attachment and was perfectly fine with this. Well, I was not that long ago gifted an authentic Kayfun Lite plus and I'm in heaven. A KFL+ is like a cartotank on steroids.

    I had previous experience making coils for a couple of Genesis-style RBA's, but put them away away in favor of the less fussy cartotanks. It's easy to build simple microcoils on the KFL+. My current 1.3 ohm coil has been going strong for 6 weeks (dry burning between wick changes). I change the organic cotton wicks every 4 - 5 days when the flavor falls off or starts tasting a little burnt. Easy to drain the tank (or wait until its near empty) and change the wick.

    A years supply of Kanthal wire costs $8. A years supply of organic cotton costs $3. No more spending $2 on cartos every two weeks.

    I made a bunch of coils yesterday, too, for future use. I think I enjoy making the coils, too, trying to get that "perfect one". I had to stop myself from making too many! Glad to see someone else does the same thing.
