Got mine today washed it but I think I'm still tasting machine oil not used to it coming from an evod 2 did my first coil build was aiming for 1.5 but it's reading at 1.9 on 28g my lungs aren't used to so much airflow but after all that I'm not really tasting my patriot net from goodejuice guess time will tell

With that much airflow you may need to either close it off a bit, or crank up your wattage for more flavor.

I haven't been dialing airflow for flavor --yet. Just been enjoying wide open airflow and really thick vapor.
I will change things up some over the next couple days and report back with observations
I received my Lemo 2 from MVS today. FWIW, I was pleased with their service and I'll order from them again. Some initial thoughts:
-Definitely scrub this one. My sense of smell isn't what it used to be and I didn't initially notice a machine oil smell, so I gave it a rinse. Might not have a smell, but it's got a machine oil taste. I'll give it a better bath on the next re-wick.
-Build quality and finish is nice, and the threading on mine is nice and smooth.
-With the AFC closed down for MTL, mine whistles just like the Delta II. I have to open it a tad more to get rid of it.
-Personally, I'm not a fan of the included drip tip. To big for my comfort. I already swapped it out for a smaller one.
-My initial build wouldn't wick....and I built it just like I have my other Lemo's for the last 6 months. I think it might have had something to do with how I filled it. I ended up rebuilding it and it's been working fine. Filling it for me was messy, but I've only done it twice. Some practice will probably fix that.
-Emptying it for my 2nd build was pretty easy, with no mess. I closed the AFC, and opened the fill port just enough to fit my plastic syringe in the hole. Flipped it upside down and I was able to remove just as much liquid as I would have on the original.
I'll reserve judgement on flavor in comparison to the original until I get the machine oil taste out of it. Initially, I'd say it's on par with the original. I'm pleased with the purchase, but I'm certain it won't be sidelining any of my other Lemo's. Just another fine addition to my Lemo collection.

So all the new versions are coming out with the "machine oil" taste in them? Makes me think Eleaf didn't clean them up after machining, to get them out the door faster?
Pretty much every atty I've bought had some...a little hot water and dawn and an good alcohol rinse followed by hot water cures it.
I've always ran mine through the ultrasonic cleaner for 30 minutes,even if they didn't smell like oil. None of my standard Lemo's had the oil smell,on them?
I didn't actually notice any on mine but as I have with every atty I just cleaned it before using...force of habit!
I have two full size Lemo's and a Drop. All 3 of them came clean as a whistle, with no hint of machine oil.
Honestly, the Lemo 2 looked very clean coming out of the box, it just needs a little more work. Shouldn't take much. I'm not going to bring it to work with me today because the taste is bothering me. Going to scrub and boil it tonight.
Vapen, I don't have the original or the drop so the only thing I can compare it to is the Delta II and the SubTank Mini...the larger chamber and chimney on the Lemo 2 seems to thin the flavor just slightly...great vapor production, but a little (very little) loss of flavor compared to those other tanks in my opinion.
I did not notice "machine oil" on mine, but a strong, almost perfume smell when I opened the box (is that machine oil??). I could smell it even on the wick they had in it. I dumped that pronto! Then washed in very hot water, then soaked in a mild salt water (very hot) and scrubbed each piece with that same solution. Rinsed throughly and it was perfect.
Hey folks, I'm helping a member new to RTAs. She got a Lemo II today. Any differences to the deck from the first version?
After experimenting with airflow I can say that the flavor and clouds are fully customizable
You can tighten it up for more flavor or run it wide open for amazing vapor production.
Even with it tight for flavor it still produces nice heavy vapor.
Loving it so far!
Two things I would like to see changed for the next model is a finger grooved top cap to help with opening up for refilling...
Larger flathead screws for the coil mount points.
As is however I love it and will be ordering more of them as my finances allow.

anyone out there got a Lemo 2 and a Goblin? If so, please compare airflow and vapor production.
