infinity kayfun v4 leaking

[pdasterly]

ran good first day, waiting on new mod so i put to side, picked up again and tank broke?
replaced tank with glass that comes in kit, now when i fill all my juice runs out the bottom(air holes)?

 

[Jack Merridew]

Did you close the juice control before filling it?

 

[Zamazam]

Is the glass tank section flame polished on the edges or rough? I had to get an oring replacement kit for mine from fasttech to use my glass tank, the stock orings are kinda thin.

 

[pdasterly]

yes, i think so if the juice control is the bottom base, lost half tank first time, then it worked fine, when i refilled it from top everything ran out.
the glass tank is rough, i read somewhere else that i should get o-ring replacement kit from svoemesto, but unsure of what to get

 

[pdasterly]

is this a good kit?

dont mind the price, kidneypuncher has done me well in the past and shipping is ultra fast

 

[Zamazam]

Yes it is, if you don't mind the price.

which size silica wick should i pickup, ordered some cotton from fasttech but its taking forever

 

[Zamazam]

Forget silica. If there is a Sephora nearby pick up a bag of organic cotton pads (make up section) or go to a local pharmacy and get a bag of organic cotton balls or organic cotton pads to make your wicks.

Cotton bacon is actually quite good. The stuff you ordered from fasttech is just organic cotton balls.

This is what I use:

i just need something fast, kidneypucher delivers to me within 2 days, plus cotton bacon is oos

 

[Zamazam]

Local Pharmacy, Organic cotton balls. A big bag will cost $3-$4.

 

[pdasterly]

fine then, just ordered rebuild kit, cotton from fasttech could be here anyway. thanks for ya help
now just waiting for the ipv d2 to become available

 

[pdasterly]

rebuild kit came, was going to replace all o-rings but seemed unnecessary once i started tearing everything apart, I replaced o-ring #16 and haven't leaked so far but its only been a few minutes, I get some juice leaking but its very minor, at least its not pouring out like before. Will update tomorrow or so if anything has changed.

Ordered cotton from fasttech at same time i ordered kayfun, the kayfun came two weeks ago and fasttech is telling me to keep waiting
I have some kanthal wire but no cotton, still vaping the original coil that came with kayfun kit

edit: leaking more than i would like to but not pouring out like before, going to try to order o-ring #16 but bigger, like i this vid

2nd edit: refilled kayfun now its leaking again but in between part 3 and 5, damn thing giving me headache

 

[rolltidevaper]

Had the same issue with the same clone I believe. I have about 4 Kayfun 4 clones, but only one that had the red o rings. I ordered a kit from 101vapes.com, I'll put the link below. Replaced all the o rings and no more leaking.

Got it in just a couple of days.

 

[pdasterly]

basically ordered same kit from kidneypuncher
http://www.kidneypuncher.com/tobeco-kayfun-v4-repair-kit/
going to replace o-ring #18 to see if that work, killing my precious juice

edit: replaced o-ring #18 still leaking

 

[rolltidevaper]

I hope it fixes it for you. It did for me!

 

[pdasterly]

ok rebuilt bottom connector with all new o-rings and parts in rebuild kit, replaced every single piece in the Universal connector. Seems to be working fine again, i even topped off some juice and it didn't leak out, will continue to vape test. pray for me

 

[AmandaD]

Sounds like you've got it fixed! When in doubt tear it down completely and replace #16

 

[pdasterly]

#16 got replaced first

Good luck. I know how frustrating it is, but when that thing works..........it's one of my favorites. Vaping it right now!!!

 

[pdasterly]

hands down best tank, i use aerotank v2 as backup but im tired of buying coils

 

[pdasterly]

still not leaking

 

[Zamazam]

Ah, good. With a lot of o-rings and sections, the Kayfun V4 and clones can be a leaky mess if the right sized o-rings aren't used.

 

[pdasterly]

I love to vape but I don't like where vaping is at per industry, big tobacco needs to step in and offer us some good products(philip morris rta )
I do like zig zag brand ejuice as there are too many juice options, never had the same juice twice other than madvapes

kayfun hasn't leaked so far, i need a higher power device, my mvp only goes to 11 watts, pre-ordered ipv d2 but im getting impatient

 

[pdasterly]

fasttech is sending me new base for the kayfun
