harshness of RTA's and RDA's

[roxynoodle]

Yeah, I'm very surprised the Lemo is harsh at 11W. A 1.1 ohm coil I would be running a minimum of 16W.

OP, I think its your wicking. I think you're blocking your juice channels or you have it too tight in the coil.

Cool, thanks for the suggestions you all. I will try rebuilding the coil and re-wick it differently and see if that helps.

Yes, will do once I'm over this sickness and can actually think straight. Might be a few days though ugh..
So I'm I safe to assume that I can use most 510 drip tips with this Lemo? Gotta find a shorter or bent one, this thing is tall. I really enjoy the swivel on my Iclear's.

Check out some YouTube reviews, they usually cover that.
My guess would be yes, but you can always stop by your b&m (assuming you have one) and pop one in to be sure.
Swivel tips are called the knuckle I believe.

Okay so built a better coil, 1.8 ohm, much better! Not as harsh and rewicked it better and added a bit more Japanese cotton than what's in the picture. So far no leaking, much smoother, and hits like a champ now. Thanks all seems much better.
On a side note, if my ohm jumps around on my MVP 2, then could mean my coil is messed up or something? I took that coil off and made another, seemed to fix the problem. Just wondering. I appreciate it everyone!

Usually the jumping ohms are a post screw not being tight enough.

Sometimes its the 510 pin or a poor connection between mod and atty.

Glad you got it going!

Thanks very much, I tried this method of wicking quoted below and seems to be working perfectly. Only time will tell.

Cut another strip of cotton about 1/2cm wide.

Now cut a couple pieces about 2cm long.

What we are going to do here is what I like to call bridge the wick.

Do this to both sides, make sure you keep away from the air hole.
