Lemo 2 RTA Question

[Jakey]

learnt a trick with spacing coils. if you not willing to do a para coil and unwrap one. you can build your coil. then take a small piece of cut off kanthal and use it to spave the coil by "flossing" it. so just push it between each wrap opening up the spaces.

That being said ive only tried it on nickel which is more pliable than kanthal.

Thanks guys, will try again. Il try the 28g and see. I thought raising the coil should be less of a throat hit that's why it so high. Will let. U guys know the outcome

Just picked up a lemo 2 . The supplied coil and wick gives a nasty throat hit even with 6ml . Certainly needs a proper build on it .

 

[Rafique]

Definately the crap wire it comes with, I built a 2.5 mm 8 wrap coil on my subtank mini and result was the same it's the wire. Anyone know where I can get 28g wire in the south

I normally use a very small screw for spacing coils so the wrap is lekker even

I'm quite glad you posted this. Picked up a Lemo 2 yesterday and any hit longer than 2s leaves me coughing and spluttering like a 10 year old Alfa. Going to give it a rebuild on the weekend

Alfa. Going to give it a rebuild on the weekend

So it's definately something to do with the build, Freedom never had a problem with his so I don't know. Will try and get some 28g later and let u know if it's the wire it comes with

 

[Jakey]

Glad we getting somewhere guys. good luck!

I've noticed this on any atomizer I've ever used. Upon first wick or rewicking it is harsh even if the wick is fully saturated. The quickest fix is turn the power down and puff ut until auto cutoff.

this seems to break in the wick.

 

[Silver]

This may have been covered - but have you given it a thorough wash and soak @Rafique ?

It might just be that I am less sensitive to the harshness - can't recall it being harsh at all, but then I had some max VG juice in it when I used the factory coil

Also, as @Silver said, you do need to give it a bit of a bath before use (which I did) and I then rewicked mine - I never used the installed wick at all

 

[El Capitan]

So I'll give mine the full treatment on the weekend and provide feedback

 

[Rafique]

Ok let me do that thanks guys, actually thought of it yesterday but thought why would it help, I can't get 28g anywhere it the south so I will wash it properly and try again with standard wire it came with

 

[Jakey]

south as in where exactly. isnt sean , vape cartel in the south?

 

[Rafique]

Lol eldorado park, only some eciggy shop in signet but their prices are wack

 

[Imthiaz Khan]

Closest place then to Eldos would be Vape King Parkwood

 

[Rafique]

Boiled tank and happy to say vapes good now. Built a 0.5 with the same wire it came with. 0mg juice. And vapes well, I'm gona leave it for a few hours cause it normally happens after the tank has been left for a while

 

[Imthiaz Khan]

Hope it goes well @Rafique
Good luck man!

 

[Rafique]

Where's parkwood

 

[Imthiaz Khan]

Very close to Zoo Lake. Just after Zoo Lake actually.

You can try adding more liquid . the coil before closing it. I add 10 drops to coil before closing up the tank although mine is dual. Another thing is let it sit for a while before vaping. Try letting the juice soak overnight once and see if that helps. I do both amd don't have a problem. Worst case is a slight gurgle on the1st 2-3 toots and then it dissappears once the coils heat up enough and vaporise the excess liquid.

 

[Rafique]

I don't know what it is, I'm not getting the flavour, my subtank mini is running perfect and I rebuild the coils on both to make sure I'm doing it right. I can even vape 12 mg on the subtank mini on 0.5 coils. On the lemo I boiled it for half and hour to get all the machine oil out. The problem is when I leave it for a while the vape is crap the first 20 puffs, it's harsh like it's only the coil burning. I have even tried drenching the wick in liquid and pulling from the chimney straight same problem.

 

[Ashley A]

Just maybe you need a higher VG and/or lower Nicotine juice for it. I noticed that I need to change those for my mix of atties yet I use the same pre-built Kangertech 0.5ohm coils in my RBA and RTA

 

[DaRoach]

Just a thought if long periods between vapes and the wick is well saturated when vaped gives a harsh nic hit and as the wick runs dryer the vape smooths out. Is it posible that this might be the case.

 

[Rafique]

Thanks it might be yours soon and u can try and let me know if it works for you il get another
