Kayfun clone?

[Gummy Bare]

Don't know about that. I was just thinking, I always just assumed I had a EHPro. Is this it? This is mine. Can anyone identify brand?

That's a EHpro for sure. I got one of the very first EHpro kayfun lite clones they came out with (same exact box as yours is in). No AFC on mine. The draw was so tight I drilled the thing out to make it better.... now it just leaks all over, lol. I might be able to fix it though. I also have a real kayfun 3.1, a Russian, Russian 91%, and hcigar 3.1 clone. So I wasn't in a super big hurry to fix the EHpro.

I really want a real KFL+.

Some of HCigar's clone parts appear as nickel plated brass. Not being able to get a replacement part the broken one will be modified. Picture should state it all:View attachment 292872View attachment 292874

Looks like you got some rust on that badboy.... damn China. Same thing happened to my Russian %91. That's why I love real stuff. Never had a high quality original atomizer rust, but I've had a few clones rust.

Believe that may just be scuff from tools, is brass. Only used it a few day and isn't even been out of the plastic for a few weeks. Anyway... need to chop the post down now, well... later. Fit is good.

Noticed brass when tapping the positive block. Just cleaned it up with 200. Yep (yes), small parts are nickel plated brass. Also, positive center post has been scuffed during tapping revealing brass.

Love my Fogger!

Top left hand item in the pic.

lol I have that piece. I thought it was just the worst drip tip ever!

I tried it last night with my wife's pink acrylic drip tip. I had a mental picture of what the piece had to be yesterday based on the top cap on the Ehpro and your description. I thought that this "stupid drip tip" might in fact be the adapter.

I was like "duh"

Just got my chromed brass kayfun and I love it! I ordered this version as it was ships-next-day and I couldn't wait. Not worried about the brass - all my evods have brass anyway - but I'm planning on ordering the ss kfl. The installed coil didn't work properly but I used the wire in it (as my kanthal didn't arrive yet) to wrap a shoddy coil and it hits like a freight train! A bit of leaking through the air hole but I think that's due to me not using enough cotton.

One problem though; I fill from the top as the needle tipped bottles I use don't seem to like the side fill hole. When I screw of the top the chimney unscrews as well. It's great that the o-ring is tight, but... Anyone have a solution for this?

hmm, I'm a little surprised with all the tobeco love. Mine came extremely dirty, every single piece needed an VERY thorough cleaning. Also, the air hole needed a lot of drilling/beveling before it quit whistling. That being said, it now vapes REALLY well. And I'm very happy with it. However, if I get another one, it'll either be an ehpro, hcigar, or if I'm really lucky, an original.

I like brass also...

Mine came in the same type of box, but also included a clear tank as pictured:

Only loose drip tips will fit without the adaptor, otherwise, for standard diameter drip tips, you need to use the adaptor.
Bottom has the recessed fill hole screw w/ oring.

I'm trying to figure out which one I have too since I picked up from a local B&M. Didn't come with any manuals/instructions. Thanks!

Edit: oh, and the posts do not have the holes drilled out, so you have to warp the coil ends under the top screws.

You wanna see some dirt and gunk, pick up one of the hcigar ones. They have the same media blast finish as the Russians and the same threading as the regular kayfun (just like the Russian).... but damn or damn was that think dirty. I've been into RBA's for sometime now, so I'm used to cleaning machine oil off atomizers before using them. But this thing was on a whole new level.

I got one of the first runs of them, so maybe they are less full of gunk then before. The hcigar one also had some threading issues. The threads are the same angle/measurement as the Russian, but are kinda thin and will jump threads on you if your not carefull.

hmm, well, maybe I'll just wait until my local b&m gets some in, so I can check it out in person for whistling/cleanliness...

Figured out the problem with subohm on kfl+ by tobeco...wick wells are almost non existent..

What is the norm? I'm assuming somewhere in the middle, cuz the lite clone's are HUGE.

The one on the left definitely has issues...

Yeah, I didn't notice issues from it except when I had valve fully open, and then when I started using deciohm coils. I thought when I was still using standard resistance, the valve fully open wicking issue was my liquid.

I think I might be insane..I could've sworn the wells weren't that small.. if I'm already enjoying the air control now, can't wait until I file it down properly. Left is tobeco Russian91. Right is unidentified lite with kayfun markings only on bottom of base.

I have the EhPro clone lite.. I did drill the air hole bigger now it hits like a champ

 

[curcumin]

my hcigar from luxor vape came with a chromed brass pos block and similar quality screws. My block is rusty now, and the screws too. The quality of the other parts, fit and finish of the unit itself is superb however, so i ordered a stainless block and a2 grade screws for it. hopefully nothing else proves to be chromed brass. i have my doubts about the positive pin. time will tell. that piece might be hard to replace since it has the hole in the side and is hollow itself. I would stay away from the hcigar until they work this out.

I have several Tobeco clones. The first one I got was dirty, oily and had a real problem getting it going at first. The last two I got are a Tobeco KFL+ and a "Kayfun Nano and full kit" from ebay. Turns out it is a Tobeco Russian 91% clone with both the original parts and the "nano kit" with shorter tank sections and chimney.

Both of the Tobecos I got recently are outstanding, very fine machining, clean when I get them (I clean them again anyway) and high quality clones. You really can't tell the difference between them and the EHpro (also outstanding) Kayfun lite. HCigar also is much better now than they were earlier, but I don't really care for the finish on either of mine. (but they work and vape just fine)

 

[Strangebrew]

Good day everyone and old thread... The kick is in the dust. Figured trying the Kayfun (HCigar), 1.7 omh with cotton. No gurgling as the Fogger put out.

 

[Strangebrew]

Time to shed this atomizer. I had gurgling from my set up on the "Fogger", yet at least I had flavorful moist vape.

From the information I've gathered, old Tobeco KFL clone is garbage, new Tobeco KFL+ v2 as well as Ehpro KFL+ are very very good.

I only own the newer ones so I can't comment on the older styles, but the newer style clones (recessed fill screw w/oring, adjustable 510 pin, bottom airflow adjustment) perform amazing!
