Probably coming from the airflow screws Mark.. And I agree, leaking sucks! Even a small amount
.. Plumbers tape should fix it

Day two w/billow, removed .22 ohm 26g twisted dual coils.
Built dual 26g 7/8 wrap on 3/32 dowel for .4 ohms. 3.7 volts on Sigelei 100w gives 47watts. much better than .22 build, warm Vapegood flavor and no spiting juice in my mouth like the first build did.
That's the same build I'm using. I'm about to put an extra wrap on each coil and bring it to 0.6. I'm running it on a mech so can't change the power.
The Billow is designed for dual coils. You could put a single coil in there, and it will work but that's not really what it's meant for. As a single coil atty, the Lemo is better than the Billow, since the Lemo was designed for a single coil setup. If you prefer dual coils, the Billow is better. You could technically put dual coils in a Lemo but that's not what it's designed for. That's why I disagreed with Rip Tripper's review, since he only put a single coil in the Billow. It would be the equivalent of me doing a review of the Lemo with a dual coil setup and giving it a thumbs down because the vape was too hot.

markophonic if it is weeping it is from the AFC. If the juice runs out in massive quantities (while upright) then it is likely the fill hole.
If you read through this thread you will see a ton of us complaining about weeping through the AFC. Some of us have posted reviews on Eciggity regarding this issue as well.

Very nice rawbobbi.
I will say that I am a little jealous as my Sigelei decided to start doing weird things. It is like it is jealous of my using my DNA 40 and building two others. Maybe YiHi has a bug in my house and is punishing me for using Evolv chips.

i adjusted watts down to 37w @ 4.2volts. works nice.
may i ask what you dislike about your .4 ohm build?
What juice are you running Roxy? Lately I have been vaping dessert flavors fairly high (around 50 watts on builds around 0.25 Ohms in drippers), icy flavors at around 35 watts (around 0.5 Ohms in tanks), fruits at 37-40 watts (same builds and devices as icy's). Icy flavors I used to always keep between 25 and 30 watts, but I keep bumping them up lately. Maybe it is just the time of year.
Its a little too hot and not as good of flavor as I get on my Orchid with the same build. Could be that its not the right juice for this atty. Its Nicoticket Raz Cup. Maybe I should try a different flavor. When I find an atty/juice combo I really like, I tend to keep them together, lol!
I like Virus in the Lemo.
Frenilla and Strawnilla in the Roses.
I just discovered I like Band Camp best in the Orchid.
I've been exclusively vaping NT juice for months.

maybe i should try some Nicoticket juice, sounds quite popular. let me know how the .6 coil does for you, maybe i would like it as well. good luck. vape on.
I will try it tomorrow.
Yes, everyone should try Nicoticket. Get Virus for sure and anything else that sounds like it hits your flavor profile. I think Raz Cup would like a bit less heat. I have 11 setups ATM so I'm running out of flavors to pair with new attys!

I have 11 setups ATM so I'm running out of flavors to pair with new attys!If the extra airhole and channels are properly closed off, it becomes a de facto single-coil device -- the unused portion of the build deck would have no discernable effect on flavor or vapor production. I think rip's review is completely valid in it's approach to the review and comparison to the lemo.
Nasca, can you explain to me what will happen when you are running a single coil, yet you still have 2 unused juice channels that are pulling in juice? Does that really add up to? Maybe you could stuff a bunch of wick to block the channels? Else you are gonna flood the hell out of the deck.
And man, the afc grub screws on the bottom are leakier than a newborn baby. So annoying. Guess I will try some plumbers tape. Oh, and not to mention the whistling I get when I draw off the tank. They had a great idea for design, and the machining is decent. But, the coupe of problems that the Billow has are problems that should have not been overlooked before putting on the market. I mean did they even test these things lol?
Oh well, I only spent $26 for it shipped on black Friday, so no huge loss. Still frustrating though as I had such high expectations for this rta....

Finished up the first tank...I had moved it off the VS and put it on a slug mod. Still a little weeping. After finishing the tank I put some teflon tape on the air flow screws...will see how that goes.
except for the indirect flow of the vapor up the airflow tube, which is why it needs two coils to maximize flavor the way it was designed to be used. My
do you mean the chimney? I dont think it matters if the the airflow travels from under one coil towards to the center.
sure. you'd definitely want to utilize the unused liquid channels otherwise flooding will happen. blocking them with cotton/rayon works, but I prefer splitting the wick so that all channels feed into the coil. works great!

Anyone want a gently used Billow. It's not really blowing my skirt up. It does "weep" from the AFC, although I have not tried any remedies.
