Kayfun Mini V3 Plus - 22mm (Okura Edition)

[digicig]

I've only been vaguely tempted by the KF mini v3 - due to its size to liquid proportions - as well as the delivery complications of Ft or whoever

Had a lookie through the Chinese sites for wire - and stumbled across the Kayfun Mini V3 Plus (Okura Edition) clone - 22mm

Looks quite nice not sure about capacity but looks larger than the Mini mini.

Only vid i could find is in Chinese (and no i haven't got the faintest what he's saying but does have a normal mini to compare it against) LoL



Does look like it's a 22mm V3 clone - should get it next week so will let thee know what tis like.

The site - via Taobaofocus - 148rmb + 35 commission + 15 postage = just under £20 delivered - and should have it and some SS Clapton wire early next week to play with

Looks like this digicig and which I have two of: 2ml tank

www.fasttech.com/products/0/10006473/4660701-kayfun-mini-v3-styled-rta-rebuildable-tank

It has an airflow screw accessed through the power contactor at the bottom. Unscrew and remove plate/contact male and use flat blade instrument screwdriver to adjust air flow through air hole. Default seems ok?

Tank body is screwed down to refill...otherwise a slight flood. Fill and screw top back on. Unscrew tank body to get juice into deck..max 2 turns.

Kinda calnorth
but 22mm - so hopefully hold 3ml and look less awkward too LoL

oh..ok. I had one problem and that was on one of them. Worked good for a few weeks and then sudden atty shorts. In short(?) it was that the two coil screws somewhat migrated outwards so touching the chimney. Long nose pliers brought them back.. just enough to stop shorting. And not busting anything!

Weird really, but being 19mm dia, I think tolerance is too little. The other thing is that its a bit of an airy draw. Screwing the air control screw in tends to make for a noisier (windy/whistle?) draw.

Hope yours has been improved as such?

Thanks again calnorth

Will take all the suggestions under advisement when i receive it next week

Also should add - the Commission charge and postage is for all the items - including the SS Clapton wire and 3 Aspire 0.3 heads too

They have the mini plus on FT but its listed as 24mm.

[digicig]

Just checked the listing phtumshk - the FT one does indeed say 24mm - and 3.5ml capacity
Rechecked the one i've ordered and it definitely states 22mm - which would be much better - for me at least.

Will measure it as best i can once it arrives hopefully next week.

slight aside - but it's always niggled a bit, when manufacturers state 3.5ml (or whatever ) juice capacity - when it's usually the capacity of the empty glass tank - without the actually miser itself in place You'd think that by now, with all the testing equipment that is usually in place (certainly was at Joyetech) that they'd state the true juice holding capacity instead

Yeah there also seems to be some confusion in the discusions about it.
I think the dia is given on the largest part which would be just the wavy ring at the bottom.

Talking of manufactures misguided specs, it gets my goat when they give the tank height and include the drip tip and 510.

[digicig]

phtumshk Same general phenomena - though i can live with something actually being shorter than expected

Maybe it's the Okura Edition that's 22mm? or they've actually measured it at the base LoL

yeah  I think they have.
Ive just watched the video, if you look when its on the sx mini the very bottom of it is the exact size of the 510 which would be 22mm then the wavy bit is slightly wider.

Im quite surprised its substantially shorter than the mini in height.

[digicig]

If i hadn't found the vid - i would've left it for other folk to report back on first

But as the vid looks OK (and can get a student to translate if necessary LoL) AND i should have it within a week - thought it might be worth a go.
I left me KFL at home - so have mainly been using the KST mini - and now the Anyvape FuryTank2 (the original Furytank died - the copper plating wearing off the bottom) as i still had spare heads to use up ( just popped in the Ni 0.25 head - not expecting much tbh- but Wow really liking the vape - if not the juice use LoL) and the Cubis tanks i got while in ShenZhen.

So hoping that this KF clone will be a decent addition - along with the mini Cuboid kit that should arrive by Monday.
Next thing will be to order some more Organic French VG - and possibly some PG - to mix up with my dwindling supply of nic containing juice i'm using to flavour it

[sydsut]

digicig have you tried in the local shops for food flavouring concentrates to flavour your juices

[digicig]

Trouble with that sydsut - is that i can't actually read the ingredients

I'm pretty much a tobacco flavour vapour - and flavour, whilst appreciated isn't all that important - so have been diluting the nic i had further and further - until i'm on around 1mg if that at the mo I seem to be getting sufficient flavour for my needs - and hopefully have 100ml of 24mg coming from FT via me Ma in time before i completely run out of supplies

I can get concentrates here - but only in 200ml bottles - with no samples - so have been decidely reluctant to do so. The higest readily available premixed juice is around 11mg - but something like Halo at 6mg diluted 10 times seems to be fine

I realise that this thread started over a month ago digicig , but how did you get on with the V3 Plus tank ?

I'm wanting a Kayfun V3 but my sausage fingers will struggle with coiling and wicking the V3 Mini - I have enough trouble with the V4.

I could be wrong but i think this has the same build deck as the V3 (it's tiny) so no help for your sausage fingers, the only difference being the bigger glass tank.

Best to wait for the bigger build deck of the V5.

I got some of these www.fasttech.com/product/4435401 which increases capacity to 3.5ml, only trouble being i like to see my juice.
