I love the Plume Veil, great bit of kit. How have you got the delrin insulator adjusted, personally I liked open about half way. I never tried it on the Nemi to be honest so not sure what the deal is with that.

Glad you are enjoying it though.

Haven't really messed with that delrin adjuster too much so far. The difference is subtle and I'll have a fiddle a bit more to see what's what.
The Nemi issue may be down to my build perhaps. I dunno. The same goes for it being a little picky about how much juice it likes to provide a nice vape. Too little or slightly too much and it can be a bit crappy every now and then. Proper Goldilocks syndrome

I also find I have to adjust the wattage every so often to keep it sweet. I dunno, we'll see how it goes. Nice when it's on song though.

It is very subtle, I just found it intensified the flavour slightly and cooled down the vape a touch.

I wonder if it could be to much or not enough wick? Is the resistance reading on the Sig stable?

Uncle Petey · 7 Jan 2015 at 12:27

Yeah, it all seems to be in order and wicking seems fine to me. Not too much, not too little.
It's not like I have to constantly change it or anything. Just every now and then. It sounds worse than it is

It's generally fine and it's early days.

Oh, I have no idea if this is just down to the particular clone that I have, but the major annoyance for me is that the top cap is very tight. This means that if I want to check the juice level, I have to pull off the entire body. Is it the same with yours?

That's fair enough, it might just want some tweaking to get it where you like it or might even settle in on its own after some use.

The top cap wasn't very tight but it certainly was tighter than the barrel so like you I would pull the entire body off the deck.

Have you got the version with the large logo and two air holes on the top cap of the newer 1.5 version with small logo and 4/5 air holes on the top cap?

Uncle Petey · 7 Jan 2015 at 12:45

I have the small logo and two airholes on the top cap

This one
Also, the base can be pushed through the main body and doesn't sit on a lip. No huge biggie, but it does mean you have to take extra care to make sure that the base is flush on a mod.

I haven't seen one like that before, its like the original but with new logo and stainless deck instead of gold plated.

Yeah that was something that bugged me a bit about it, its like if the deck doesn't sit flush on top of the mod the body will slide to far down and cover the air flow in the posts.

Resistance has started jumping all over with my Lemo and Sigelei 30W, does this mean it's time to rebuild the coil or is the mod knackered?

Uncle Petey · 7 Jan 2015 at 13:43

It may just be that a screw needs tightening on the coil. I've had that happen.

Rebuild the coil, it's likely a loose coil itself. The mod won't be faulty unless it does the same with another tank/dripper

Liquidfox · 7 Jan 2015 at 13:53

Cheers guys, I did re-wick it last night so that could be it. May have knocked it loose.

First coil build so this should be interesting!

Tried this year's back and always got a weird ****** taste, I'm talking the cheap ones 20quid and that. Got speaking to my mate at work and he had a pretty good one think it's a MVP taste or something,

The taste was better, I could actually feel it worked.

I'm Smoking way to many cancer sticks recently so ask for his recommendation,He said the Aspire premium VV kit was best bang for buck. Just got it about 4 hours ago jesus I love it! On the watermelon atm.

Glad to hear you are enjoying it and good luck in your move to a tobacco free life!

I've just ordered the egrip's rba, the 510 ataptor and some atomisers from Joyetech.. Looking forward to not having to spend £14.99 on atomisers and seeing how good this RBA really is! I had £10 store credit which I was saving just for this!

I'm just looking for the istick bending ataptor (hopefully it will sort out some of my bent tanks) and a lemo drop at the same store, and another mod of some sorts at the end of February and that be it for a long while!

My fast tech order still hasn't come!

Hey peeps, So my replacement deck insulator came for my KF4 but my first build wasnt to good. I went with the kayfun 3 rule of less is more cotton and I nearly took out the back of my throat with a dry hit!

Also I dont have an ultra sonic cleaner so how do you get rid of that metal taste? Ive had it soaking in boiling water and fairy 3 times now?

Isopropyl alcohol is great for cleaning, I have heard vodka works too but not tried myself.

Uncle Petey · 7 Jan 2015 at 16:34

Washing up liquid, hot water and a good scrub with an old toothbrush usually works for me. As for the atty though...

Hey there

I just cleaned mine out with warm water, popped it back together again & filled it with snake oil, no dry hits at all.

What I did with my cotton (from a cotton wall ball) was feed it through my micro coil, cut it level with both sides of the atty, folded it upwards screwed on the lower chimney section, then lightly packed it down onto the deck making sure that a 4 juice holes were covered.

Not had any trouble with it at all, infact cant get over how much juice it guzzles.

Have you got the juice flow shut when you are vaping on it?

Cheers all

Yeah. It vaped a bit and the clouds were good but I think I didnt have enough cotton on the deck covering the holes. I bought a genuine rose v2 last night so when Im off tomorrow Ill have a go with them both.

Soak it in Iso alcohol or vodka, overnight, rinse it in warm water.

When you re wick it, do it just like you would a KFL, but leave the tails a little longer. Can't go wrong.

Might sell my original KF4 as I just dont use it very often...

Edit: and yeah the KF4 does drink juice compared to the KFL, but its also a slightly smaller tank.

...and if you think the KF4 goes though juice quick you should see the Ubertoot!
