Yes yes of course..../puts down gun (please don't feed me to your dogs, Lord Bolton hehe).

I have been eagerly awaiting news of a V3, and I'm disappointed that's all. Thanks for going to the trouble to post this info, btw.

I might die this coming Sunday night between 9-10PM EST, so the possibility
of you being castrated, flayed or eaten alive by my dogs is now 50/50.

One would expect a single coil option. The vape industry is turning into the auto
industry by slapping old product names onto new products that either don't
resemble or mildly resemble the originals.

agreed, no single coil=no sale

how is this from the Lemo line? they should have made a dedicated, single coil, kayfun competitor.

I would not abandon hope all ye who vape a Lemo... the way the deck can be pulled out and replaced... they might hear y'all and make a single coil option.

THAT would be cool!

Ive heard rumours that there will be a single coil deck, if there isnt the Lemo 3 will sadly be dead to me, that huge airflow trough is an affront to the Lemo name and makes me want to haterant on behalf of my beloved Lemo 2's, best tanks ive had
Stop trying to cater to literally everyone and instead focus on your established devoted customers first, give the dual coil people the slops after we get what we want, and need...single coil goodness.

I too would've preferred it stayed a single-coil atty, but the bigger fail for me is the loss of the super-quick fill port of the Lemo-2. Nothing comes close except maybe that Kanger PT4. Top cap removal to fill is a step backwards. Overall the atty doesn't offer anything new, and lacks JFC. I was hoping the 3 would be exactly like the 2 but with more air. :facepalm:

I adore that side fill, too! I would rather buy another Lemo 2 (wish they made them in black) than this. Better juice channels or a JFC would have been nice (and what I was half expecting), so the Lemo 3 doesn't intrigue me at all.

On a side note, I bought a couple of the Melo 3s and I think that my Melo 2 has better flavor than the 3 and it has that wonderful side fill like the Lemo 2. Hmm, maybe another Melo 2 is in my future, too, especially since Eleaf now makes an RBA head. :)
Oh, and I'm sorry about your recent violent demise, @Ramsay Bolton ... NOT! :evil: Bwahaha!

I've been using the same Lemo 2 daily for a year now. I have 4 but the other 3 are still in the box. I've tried many others but I still go back to my Lemo 2. Looking forward to finding out more about the V3.

I have been using the original Lemo since it came out and I love it but it seems the threads get worn after a while. I have also bought 3 Lemo 2's and all of them I can't get to read correctly so they just sit on my stand. They either don't read at all or the ohms jump all over the place and I can't seem to get the pin to contact correctly.

Does anyone else have this issue with the Lemo 2?

I keep going back to the original Lemo which when it is working is the best tank but it has its issues as well. I would like to get the Lemo 3 if I can build a single coil. The pre-built coils in these tanks just don't seem to give the flavor you get from building your own. I guess I need to try a dual coil at some point but I don't want to blow through my juice that fast.

I have seen this issue and it might be related to what you're describing with your Lemo 2. After a year of using the same Lemo 2 and removing and replacing the airflow part of the tank the 510 pin must have become worn down on the inside where it make contact with the positive screw that holds the deck together. If you back out that screw just a tad, (the screw that holds the deck together) it will again make contact with the 510 pin on the airflow part. Hope that make sense.

Ive had the Lemo 1 (died finally a few months back. was my first real tank - after a really leaky subtank min - evil pos) and the Lemo 2, in fact i have 3 Lemo 2's, ive never had conductivity/pin issues on any of the Lemo 2's ever - the original Lemo yes, due to its adjustable pin (starts out solid, then becomes adjustable lol)

I use one Lemo 2 (and have tested all 3) in temp control as my main tank.

One thing i can tell you is that ive never used the post holes for securing the coil legs, i found on occasion when i first got them there could be some variance in ohms readings. I pretty much from the beginning switched to screw head trapping (trapping the screws under the screw heads - i.e. wrap the coil leg once around the screw on top fo the deck, and screw down). Ive just replaced all the deck deck screws with hex headed m1.6x3mm stainless screws from a supplier on ebay, and they are far better than the phillips head originals, you can crank on them to ensure a good contact.

All mine read rock solid stable resistance in Escribe on my DNA200 mod.

The Lemo 2 is, after trying plenty of tanks, still the best tank ive owned by a large margin, thats why i have 3 of them.

As for coil building on the Lemos, heres what ive always done:

Pre Temp control/VW mode: 7 wraps of kanthal on 3mm id for around 1.1ohms

Temp Control: 7 wraps of 316 stainless steel on 3mm id for around 0.5/0.6ohms

I am 100% temp control these days, but the 7 wraps on 3mm id seems to work the best for Lemo's regardless of what wire (kanthal/stainless) or mode youre in, and with stainless steel wire you have some flexibility as you can use it in both temp control/non temp control modes

Funny you mention the airflow section screw, up until just last week, id never had that section apart (and i'd tried lol), suddenyl it came apart and i finally got a glimpse of what was in there. Extra funnily enough, i got given my 3rd one from a friend, who had never used it, and when i pulled it out of the box, and took it off he tank the first time, that section stayed on the mod. Lol, one never came apart for like 8 months, the other did out fo the box.
Both work fine though, i havent touched the one ive been using for 8 months, just screwed it back together. Temp control life continues to be uneventful with the Lemo's, i tested the live resistance reading in Escribe after i reassembled it and it was as rock solid as before it came apart :)

    The Lemo2 is one of my all time favorite tanks. Ton's of room to build (I've stuffed dual coils in mine), reliable in TC mode and I gotta love that quick side fill.

    This new Lemo3 looks like a misnamed Ijust or Mellow as with the factory coil option drops it out of the "true rta" ranks into the clearomizer with RBA option field.

    Maybe a Mello2 with an RBA deck might be in my future.

    So i can confirm there are no existing plans at ELeaf for a single coil deck for the Lemo 3, sorry to have to put an end to the rumours that people, including me, have heard

    I emailed them like 6 times about the subject, making a Lemo 3 single deck so existing Lemo enthusiasts would actually buy it, because without a traditional Lemo single coil deck its upsetting (and dead to) quite a few of us :)

    Heres the repsonse:

    Dear Customer,

    Thanks for your email.

    We will reflect your valuable suggestion to our R&D department.

    We will also improve our product based on customers' suggestions and feedback.

    Best wishes
