Is there anywhere to buy just the drop tank and chimney piece to convert the regular lemo to the drop? I think those are the only 2 different pieces (i may be wrong there).
It would be nice to have the option of using a smaller tank.

Though that is an excellent idea...one that many would love to take advantage of...the chimney and take would most likely cost about as much as buying the whole tank!!!

How bout wrapping a coil for one of these? Looks like you need to bend the legs back to go thru post holes, if you know what I mean.
I'm experienced at wrapping coils, but for my RDA's for my Reos, and these look a little more tricky.
Would you get a good vape with a 1.2 -1.4Ω single coil? I would use this on an unregulated mech. device.

Mine came pre-built with a 1.0 coil and pre-wicked and it hits like a madman!
I'm afraid to rebuild it cuz it's working so good!

I just got a Lemo drop yesterday and it really shines between 21 and 23 watts. I have a 1.12 ohm coil in it and it's too weak on a mech. I think you should build it to .8, maybe .9 at the highest or .7 at the lowest if you want a good strong lung hittin vape on a mech.

also I had no problems with going through the post holes. I just pre bent the leads and cut them to size. Kept the screwdriver in the coil while I positioned it and screwed down the screws. I just made sure to flip the coil over from how I build my Kayfun, so the leads are comin down from the top of the coil, not comin off the bottom. So it is more like an arch than a cursive "e" if the makes sense.

Yours came wicked already? That's odd, none that I've seen had the wick installed just the coil. Anyway, I'd never use a wick installed in a device I bought. Don't you wash your gear when you get it before vaping it?

Speaking of washing...what is the best way to wash a new RBT/RDA etc?

Thanks!

Mine was precoiled and prewicked also and I ran the coil that came with it till a few days ago. I've found my sweet spot after a few builds at a 26g 6 wrap 3mm ID macro coil. The flavor and vapor is spot on at .9 ohms and 32.5 watts with my current juice. :)

When I rec'd mine all I had to do was add juice & vape. I haven't cleaned anything I've bought prior to using it.

Got my El Gigante 26650 clone yesterday & the drop looks nice on it. Vapes really nice with a .7ohm coil on it. Not a bad clone for $22.

Yes I usually clean them but I smelled this one real good and couldn't detect even the slightest hint of oil or anything and figured if they wicked it it must be clean and ready to go. When I vaped it I couldn't taste anything strange at all so I just kept going.
I've bought other tanks and could smell oil the second I took them out of the box but with this one nothing.

Back when I got some things from Fasttech this was also my thought. It came wicked- must be ready to go.
So, I'd add juice then immediately have my eyes pop out my head- the vape was so bad.
{IMO} It's ridiculous to send something pre-wicked that needs to be cleaned.


I no longer buy from Fasttech only cause I prefer immediate gratification & waiting forever + a day sucks.
Everything I've bought stateside I haven't cleaned prior to use.
