Please tell me you bought it because of this line, "eleaf Lemo Atomizer is a new type of eleaf product which is designed for e-cigarette fans. The steel material and glass atomizer tube must impress you a lot. The highlight of Lemo atomizer lies on its rebuildable heating coil and the adjusting air inlet which bring the e-cigarette fans much fun."
Thats SO bad. Is it that hard to find an English speaking human being in China to proof read your translation app?

A nice Glass tank 5.0 Ml.Kayfun with wider, adjustable Airflow and ability to Hybrid with your existing EVIC Supreme?

I don't see why not! :toast:
That's what I said!

Hey everyone. Hope everyone is still enjoying their foggers as well as I am.

Been running into the same problem over the last three wickings.

Everything works beautiful on hits every few minutes but if I'm out drinking and chain vape, after about 30 minutes it ....s itself and voids a good bit of juice through the air holes. I can only assume that after getting so hot, something fails.

Tried filling the channels with more wick(half way down) and tried cutting the wicks at the very top of the channel.

Had the same problem myself. Tried trimming when wet, pulling them long through the chimney, cutting them then manipulating them towards the channels and still getting a bit of voiding about half way down. I've now wet them, when long, pulled the dry ends through the chimney, cut them then wet a bit more. It made it easier to manipulate the tails over the channels and around the coils and screws. So far so good.

Also, I've been messing around with combining flavors that were just ok. Stumbled upon a combo I love. It's a 50/50 mix between an RY4 from MyVapestore and Butterscotch from Diamond vapors. The RY4, I found was always a bit too peppery for my tastes, but has a very nice finish and the Butterscotch was just too sweet on it's own. I had a bit of each left over, so I mixed them together and put them in the Fogger. Wow!!! The Butterscotch takes off the edge of the RY4 and the RY4 sharpens up the Butterscotch. Fantastic vape!! Though in the fogger it hits like a hammer!! Between the two it's only about 3mg/ml of nic as the RY4 is the only juice in the pair that has nic, but man it's got fantastic flavor and a nice throat hit.

I don't know what it is about the Fogger, but I've tried it in a Kayfun and while it vapes well, it doesn't hit nearly as hard as in the Fogger. Also, tried it in an Erlkonigin and it hits very nicely, but still not as hard as the Fogger. Possibly because the Fogger is dual coiled. Anyone else had this experience?

I've had similar experiences with milk shake flavors from Killer Juice. In a Kayfun they're an OK decent flavored shake. Put the same flavor in my Fogger and suddenly the flavor is nice and creamy, way more smooth milk shake like and whichever flavor (ie vanilla or chocolate or strawberry or Jamocha) stands out much stronger. Some flavors are better in the Fogger compared to the Kayfun but most aren't nearly so obviously different as those shake flavors.

Can confirm. Made a RY4 / Vanilla Custard juice that was just awesome in the Fogger while just ok in the Magma. Creamy flavors seem to be great in the Fogger.

Unfortunately I never got that mix quite right again :(

Yeah, mine is very straight forward. About 25mls of RY4 and 15mls of Butterscotch. I guess I've now started down the road of DYI juice!

I picked up a copper and black foggerv4.1. I had the shop coil and wick it to get me started. I had asked for dual coils, but he ended up only doing the black one with duals. The black is at .7 ohms and the copper is at single coil 1 ohm. I think single coil is the worst thing you can do with these. It leaks like a civ. He loaded the cotton up over the channels stating it would give lots of flavor, which it did but I also end up with really sticky hands. he really cranked down on the tank too, when he sealed them, I was worried it may affect its performance or crack the glass. I did just have a machine shop turn down the afc ring, so that I had better flow... Huge difference. But i did find out also that these are not true copper tanks. But now the black one hits like a beast and produces mad,vapor, sitting atop my 18650 penny mod. Getting ready to try out the Japanese cotton.

I drilled out the horizontal air holes in my V4.2 to .093", which is the same size as the vertical air holes. It made a noticeable difference, but still wasn't quite enough. On my V4.1 the vertical air holes are .106", so I drilled the horizontal air holes out to the same size and it made a HUGE difference! (I also notched the AFC ring to match on both of these) I notice the taste of my juice seemed a little off, like it was watered down, so to speak. I increased the power up to 25 watts and it got better. So I increased it to 30 watts and BOOM, massive amounts of flavor, and 30 watts worth of vapor! It reminded me of tuning a carburetor: you've got to have the right amount of fuel to match the air volume, or vice-versa. I guess I'll be drilling all the holes in my Foggers out to .106, then I'll have to come up with a good way of snugging up the AFC ring so I can back down the power if needed.

I also massaged the possitive post quite a bit to make room for more air flow around the coil. I'll post up some pix the next time I have one apart. After these modifications the vape is every bit as good as ANY of my drippers! I never thought I'd be saying that.

I figured out how to increase the air flow in a Black Fogger without messing up the black finish

Here's a couple of pix of the massaged neg post I was talking about

So. Got my orchid today and built it.

Apart from the posts, the deck is identical to the 4.4, maybe a touch bigger. Even the juice channels are almost identical.

It also vapes identical to the fogger v4.4

Pros over fogger: oh my gosh. The build deck. It is SO FUGGIN AWESOME. I don't have that much difficulty building a fogger, but the posts design of the orchid is a billion times better.

Slightly bigger stock airholes


Cons compared to fogger: what in the blue crap were they thinking. 2ml capacity for a dual coil atty built for sub ohming? Jesus.

No fill hole. God. Top filling he orchid with it's stubby chimney section is stupid.

Single piece chimney design. Hate it. I like the way the fogger is. Allows you to make final adjustment to the wicks if need be.


Overall, the orchid is not even remotely close to being a fogger killer. Not by a mile. It's single only saving grace is the amazing build deck. That aside, I wouldn't waste money on it.

Should of waited a few days,the v2 is out now with deeper channels and bottom fill.I just got my 2nd last week,and of course that comes out after,but no big deal,i love my orchids,so i will buy a v2 as well.On yours though,you can get 3ml in it,dont fill from the top,it kills the capacity and will leak like hell for the first few minutes.Unscrew the bottom,and pull it up just enough to get a gap between the threads and the tank,then you can fill it through that gap,just make sure to keep the juice below the threads of the tank,that way it doesn't get forced out when you screw it back together.
