Check out this thread http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/rebuildable-atomizer-systems/601945-lemo-rta-build-pics.html. Builds through out the thread. It's a good read.

I have a 27g 7/64 id parallel single coil at .7 ohms with Rayon (cellucotton) right now. Lemo likes a lot of wicking.

Ditto all of this.

I'm running a 26ga parallel at .7 wicked with rayon in one of my Lemos and it's a flavor machine. It does take some power to drive this coil. Even at 30W it takes a second to heat up but once it does, it cooks. I'm expecting a Sigelei 100 this week and I bet at 35W or so this coil will really come to life.

any build works good in a lemo. Right now, mine has a .24 ga micro coil...10 wraps on a 3/32". Its .6 ohm and works great. Wick with Japanese cotton or Rayon.

 

[Stownz]

24 gauge micro coil .4 ohms walgreens cotton wick unboiled. Amazing. Adjustable airflow control is a godsend.

32 gauge micro coil, 1.8ohms, on Japanese cotton...excellent!! retired my Kayfun clone!!!!

You left out what device you're building for....

I build both of mine for a 30 and 50 watt mod, and my preference after trying several different builds is a single coil using 24ga wire with at least 12 wraps at 2.4mm. I wick them with CVS Organic cotton ball. I've run them as high as 50 watts with no burning just to see if they could handle it and they can, but I regularly vape them between 20-30 watts depending on what liquid I'm using.

Here's a few pics of some builds I've tried:

Single Coil with 26ga at 2.2mm (works good too, but I prefer the 24ga)


Parallel coil with 26ga at 2.4mm


Dual 28ga coils at 2.2mm


Dual 26ga coils at 2.2mm

I am currently running 24 gauge at 9 wraps and squeezing in at 1.1 ohms so I can use it on my MVP 20w.
All a matter of moving the wire one way or another to get the .1 ohm for it to fire or not. Great vape though.

 

[WharfRat1976]

Running 24g kanthal, 3mmID about a 9/8 or 10/9 coming in at a tidy 0.6....she's a honey hole[emoji12]

 

[novamatt]

I'm running 26g kanthal, 1/8" ID, 9/8 for 1.3 ohms. Also experimenting with a spaced wrap right now, which is 7/7 wraps (same wire and ID) at 1.05 ohms. Running both at 22.5 watts. The spaced wrap seems to get warmer, but doesn't get gunked up as quickly. Both coils taste great.

 

[lucky_x16]

Anyone firing these 1.1 and higher ohm wraps on an MVP 20w?
I wrapped 2 yesterday and the ohm reading did not stay constant no matter how I switched it around.
Is there something on the LEMO, I should adjust?

You should check and make sure your coil is screwed down tightly (and make sure you didn't accidentally cut the wire with the screw). This is pretty common in all rebuildable atties when your coil isn't making a good connection. A loose screw or loose wire can move around and show a lot of variation in resistance.

Thanks for the answer, I am with you on that one, I can get a constant amp, until I start screwing and unscrewing, then it keeps changing. Expecially if I take the base off.

32 gauge micro coil, 1.8ohms, on Japanese cotton...excellent!! retired my Kayfun clone!!!!

How do you find that compares to thicker wire? I've been contemplating grabbing some 32 to play with but I'm nervous about making such a small coil work well and generate the vape I like.

 

[inswva]

Lemo? It's begging for a 3mm 24AWG twisted coil with the leads stuffed in the post holes. It'll take 40W+ to eliminate the ramp up lag. But, it delivers the flavor and the fog.

I put this coil in a Lemo just for grins. But, it actually works very well with enough power under it. Although, getting the coil legs in the post holes was a complete PITA.

The flavor on this thing blows the Atlantis out of the water. Have a feeling I'm not going to be using my 2 Atlantis ever again!

How does the Lemo compare with the Orchid v4 or the Aqua V2?

No arguments there, this thing produces madd flavor and chucks the clouds.

I run 30 at 7 wraps, 2 mm ID, open coil, rayon wick. I prefer the quicker action - both heating and cooling - of the smaller gauge wire. While I've used 32 for the Lemo and KFs, I find it a bit fragile to stand up to repeated re-wicking, but do use it to rebuild clearo heads
