I've had a bit of a breakthrough with KF Lite. When tightening the barrel down, I back it off by half a turn. I had wicking probs before, but now its fine and not flooding either.

The barrel on the Kayfun Lite was made to be screwed on one specific way only.
If you look inside at the threads you will notice one end has the threads cut in nearly all the way to the top and the other end they stop short creating a larger smooth bevel.

The large smooth bevel end should be screwed down to lay on top of the juice slots which creates a larger area for to liquid to pass.

I found a article by one of the designers of the Kayfun Lite many years ago, who mentioned this but also went onto say that the instructions failed to include this fact and the barrel also was not marked in any way to show the correct orientation when reassembled.

Screwing on the larger bevel end first will have the same effect that backing off the barrel had for you but with the advantage of being able to fully tighten down.

I switched the barrel round and it wicks perfectly now. Thanks. Really can't see any noticeable difference on the barrel though. Will have to try and mark it somehow.

I’ll need to try this with mine.

It’s a subtle difference. Try looking at an angle to the inside of the barrel and turning, not from above.
I use to sometimes have good wicking and some days not as before I knew this I had a 50/50 chance of putting the barrel back on the optimum way.
Glad it’s working for you.
