I have 'real' Kayfun 3.1s and they are probably the best engineered atomisers that I have. I use a Kayfun 3.1 as my daily take-to-work vape, and they just work day after day without problems.

If I was starting again I would probably buy a Kayfun Lite Plus from Cloud 9 (they were not available when I bought my 3.1s):

C9V have superb after sales service if you have any problems, and the price (£66.95) includes a clear section and spares kit as well a the all-steel tank. I know that is more expensive than the clones but I still think it's great value for a reliable top class vape.

that sounds a good price if i get on with the clone i will be deffinatly getting the real deal

You will get on with the clone (not seen many who ain't) so you may aswell skip and buy the real deal and save some money.

Gonna get shot down for this but i don't really like Kayfuns

really considering one of these to start my rebuilding journey, seen reviews, seen it being rebuilded read alot of threads about it, but my question, should i get a clone to practice building on then buy the real thing since there cheap enough? and if i cant get my head around rebuilding and the whole experience is a fail, would i be able to sell on the real kayfun and no be too out of pocket

Out of all the atties I possess or have on loan here the one I pick up mostly when I'm buggering off out the door is the kayfun lite. Tis simple to build and the vape quality is great, is rugged and reliable and has a plentyfull capacity.
I have stuff that vapes better but nothing that I trust quite like a kayfun.
Buy the genuine article, the clones and copies vape every bit as good but the metals used are softer so the moment you try and tighten that center post when it's worked loose you'll snap the top thread.
Or you could wait a while for the kayfun V4 which is due in march/april sometime and is rumoured to have a dual coil set up

Are you trying to get me in trouble

I just prefer the Spheroids for the following reasons:

Easier to coil
Looks better and keeps the juice fresher due to how much you can only fill it (3ml)
Coils last longer
Hard as nails and looks great for indoors and outdoors
Flavor is better, maybe not the vape but for me flavor wins over vape
And to top it off they are the most simplest atty out there

Before the Kayfun army gang up on me........."This is my opinion" Tease-smiley

quick question what gauge kanthal herd 28 is the way to go? am not going into sub ohms yet look at 1.2 to 1.7 ohm coils

I use 0.25 for 1.8 ohms, eight wraps around something that is 2mm.

It's a good all rounder with the amount of space you have to work with.

If you can afford it I would bite the bullet and go for a Kayfun Lite Plus. I think Kayfun build quality is worth paying the extra money for if you're going to use it on a regular basis.

The Spheroid is also a brilliant vape, though it is probably a bit harder to get hold of one! If you are new to rebuildables then you won't go far wrong with either the Kayfun or the Spheroid. Neither are difficult to build - especially if you follow Super Shiny's excellent guides! They both have their own particular strengths but are equally good in my view.

i just orderd a EH Pro KayFun Lite Plus Clone, once i get to grips with the building side of things all just sell it then put that towards a real one in time and if i like it going off waht i have read on here i wont be dissapointed, but it comes down to how well i will be able to build but either way lookinf forward to whole process

Keep us posted geordie_vaper, I'm in the market for a Kayfun clone so I'll be interested to know what it's like!

[geordie_vaper]

will do

Received my kayfun lite this morning so did my first build was kinda successful!!
Well my first try at a coil I ended up with a 2.7 ohms reading!! My second coil attempt better ended up at 1.7ohm. Used cotton wool for wick and fair play spouting out so nice vape. Only slight problem I had was a little leakage through air hole but after watching some u tube vids soon resolved now seems all good.
Looks wicked too on new Nemesis clone.

recieved mine today but ebay let me down with my organic cotton balls so wwill have to wait to have a vape with it,the build was very fiddly and tricky hardest part for me was wrapping the wire round the screws and then screwing them in none the less i think i done a ok ish job i was scared to check the ohms incase my svd blew up in my face or somthing but it didnt made a 2.5 ohm coil not what i was aiming for but i need some advice on how to get the wire round the screws more efficiently, all put some pics up advice would be greatly appreciated
