I have the tobeco russian clone and works awesome. Quality was good and no problems.
I didn't order from FT but I recently got both the hcigar 3.1 and the EHpro KFL+. Both are nice and I don't think that you would go wrong with either.
To my understanding the Taifun lite PLUS means it comes with Air Flow Control much like the Russian 91% so yes shorter than the 3.1 or full size Russian
So many clones and too many of the vendors do not tell the manufacturer- Do I understand correct that Hcigar only makes a 3.1 model ? How is one to tell the difference between Ehpro and Tobeco KFL's ? Who makes the KFL+ ? Is the + model still a little shorter than the 3.1/Russian ?
I have the original Russian, and vapes great. If rebuying today, I'd get the same thing, or the Hcigar Kayfun clone if I couldn't score the Russian. The Authentic Russian and Kayfun are often hard to come by. But if you could find one, would recommend the real deal over a clone, they are just so worth the price of admission.
Never bought from them personally, but according to their Ebay profile they've been selling since 2009 and don't have a single negative feedback after hundreds of sales.
I would trust that.
