Okay, I received my Kayfun V4 (AMOD Clone) today, and here's my initial impressions, and review after the first 6-hours with it.... Unboxing - The box, paperwork, even the "100% Genuine Svoemesto" seal make the clone look authentic. The only thing missing was the authentication scratch-off... that is, if the original even has one? The Kayfun looks beautiful! It is well machined, smooth lines and looks sexy. It is also HEAVY! The kit includes spare o-rings, screws, silver-plated spring, polycarbonate M-tank, REAL glass insert, and a couple of pre-wrapped 32ga coils over silica wick. They even included a key-chain screwdriver (instead of the crappy blue ones) Inspection - Machining of all parts is superb! All threads are clean and smooth. No sharp edges or rough-spots like typically found on clones. All o-rings are snug-fit, no burs, or irregularities. Initial Build - Even though this deck has 4 posts/screws, it is DESIGNED for SINGLE-COILS. The additional screws are to aid in mounting, using diagonal posts, to accommodate both clockwise and counter-clockwise wound coils. Yes, you can build dual-coils on it, but the deck is still small, so keep that in mind. I built a 28ga, 1.4 Ohm coil for my first build. There are warnings in the manual to not go below 1.0 Ohm, I assume because you could damage/melt the insulators? So, if you plan to try dual-coil, keep that in mind. I found my first issue with the deck screws... the heads are TINY, so I had some difficulty working the 28ga wire under the heads and getting them tight. Smaller wire may work better, but if you're planning to use 26 or larger gauge wire, you may want to invest in tiny washers? There is no top-chimney to attach, so you can wick the coil with the lower chimney/shield in place (kinda nice). Stuffing the cotton down onto the deck to cover the juice ports is much easier on the V4, because the entire deck is a tiny bit wider, and the ports are taller, so there is less depth to cover. Assembly of the tank is a breeze since there is one nut at the top, and you can get a good grip on the entire tank body to tighten things together. Insert the deck on the bottom and screw it snug. Here's the tricky part... closing the juice flow required the use of a tiny screwdriver inserted into one of the holes to use as a prybar to break it loose the first time... after that, it was much easier to work with. Now that it is closed, pop the screw portion which holds the drip-tip, and fill the tank. Re-attach the drip-tip section and open the juice flow... a few dry-drags on the tank, and the cotton is properly saturated (if you didn't pre-saturate). Out of the box, the air-flow control was wide-open, and after a couple of good hits on the tank (at 12W) I ended up with a dry hit and fried my cotton... NO PROBLEM... Turn it upside down, remove the deck, re-wick, re-attach the deck and you're ready to go again in 90-seconds. Try that with a full tank on an older Kayfun/Russian To adjust the air-flow, you have to remove the 510 connection pin... don't worry, it's not attached to the deck! Pop out the 510 pin (and insulator if your screwdriver is not small enough), and insert a tiny flat-head screwdriver... you'll find the air-flow control screw up there! Take a few drags on the tank while you adjust the screw... once you have it set where you want it, re-assemble the 510 connection pin (don't forget the insulator!!!). Conclusion - Overall, I give it 4.5 stars out of 5. I would like it if the juice-flow-control section had a better grip, but it is getting easier to work with, even after a few hours. I would also like the air-flow control screw to be more accessible, but once you set it where you want it, you'll likely not be needing to adjust very often. Flavor is exactly what you'd expect from a Kayfun/Russian style tank. I find little difference between the V4 and my Russian 91% when using the same juice, same Ohm coil, and same Wattage settings. So, no, there is no "wow factor"... I do like the adjustable 510 pin I do like the fact I can fill the tank without needing a screwdriver or needle-tip bottle I do like the fact I can turn off the juice-flow to eliminate leakage when not being used or being transported I do like the fact this tank does NOT whistle I do like the additional screws/posts on the build-deck to accommodate more than your standard coil builds I do love the fact I can get to the build-deck without having to drain the tank and make a mess Bottom line is that this RTA is a winner in my book, and if you are tired of dealing with tools to fill and adjust your older Kayfun/Russian RTA's, you may want to consider stepping up to this model. If you've been thinking about getting an RTA, but were on the fence because they are "hard to learn"... this RTA will change your mind quickly!

This might be of mild interest to you haha But I have come full circle in my days. I think there should be a "slowest " contest out there. Petrucci is great as well as a dozen other speed guys. But I still relish the slow melodic solos of Gilmore, Gary Moore and others...

This is a movie that I never tire of watching

I'm a die hard baseball fan so football doesn't do anything for me.lol but being from Texas I gotta support my Boys

True Detective was one of the few Non Reality shows I like but am not sure if I will like the new season or not. The cast on the first one was awesome.

Yeah, I'm aware that each tab opened in Chrome is opened in a new process, it's own window so it's like opening another program and leaving it running. If you don't have much RAM, it can kill your speed, but with 32 gigs of RAM running on an AMD Phenom II quad core processor, I think I'm okay.

Starting 'Justified' tonight! I'll report back with my opinion asap

Nice

Can you show a screenshot? Market share of each browser isn't going to help them fix any issues...

So your saying I can get my nic fix AND my crack fix all at the same time?! Win win for me!

I went to a shop I frequent when I'm in that particular town today. The owner has a Subtank and I was discussing my noticeable difference between flavor versus the Atlantis. He told me that he has seen 2 Atlantis tanks come in since Christmas and the customers complained about poor cloud performance. After verifying what juice they were using he has surmised that these two are clones. He asked where they purchased them and they both purchased them from another vape shop in the area for $25.00. He put a real Aspire coil in them and the difference was night and day. Not saying you have a clone but is it a possibility?

I can't speak to Hydra's delight but the Peanut Butter Fudge Brownie from Fador is f'ing phenomenal!

A good solution is to using the locking ring/mechanism when the mod is not being used. Greatly reduces the chance of auto fire.
