Lemo 2 builds and thirst.

[Martyn Robinson]

I received my Lemo 2 today and so far I've found it drinks like an alcoholic fish, and the factory coil and wicking it comes with leaves it falling way short of my original Lemo.
The thirst isn't too much of a worry for me as I mix my own but buyer beware, if you're purchasing liquid from a retailer you can expect your monthly juice bill to rocket. My first tank full lasted me around half an hour (I'm a chain vaper but all the same I wasn't trying to make it drink heavily and my mod was set at 20watts)
I'm wondering what build to put in (the factory one needs dumping straight away), any suggestions for me?
I was going to go with one of my usual Lemo builds - a dual coil, 28 gauge , somewhere between 0.9 & 1.1 ohms which I've always found pleasant on the Lemo.
What build have you put in yours that works for you?

Hi Martyn, welcome to the forum. Gonna bump you up for an answer...good luck..

The Lemo is ok, just another copy of the Kayfun. I changed out the cotton it came with and put in my own. Vape is OK but not that crazy about it.

I like mine [now]. Tossed the cotton, gave it a good bath and put rayon on the original coil. Turn the air flow down about half and it uses the same amount of juice as the original.

Usual single coil in the lemo.Use more accommodating attys for dual coil builds..

1.2 ohm single coil works for me getting great flavor around 20 watts but it does suck up the juice though

well the tank is smaller then the original lemo but nun the less you should try and change the cotton. I swaped it with some organic ... and it pretty good tanks last me about 6 to 8 hours hope this helps.

Live on Vape on

I go through roughly 2 tanks a day in my drop. Tried several different cottons/wicks and have stuck with rayon and as far as the coil I went with a single 26 ga 5 wraps around a 3/16 which is way bigger than I go with my big dripper but I loves the taste with it.

Only thing I can see for sure about going through so much juice is that I'm spending a ton more time reading the diy section for juices as well as planning to get a few good size bottles from vapewild and itc. I definitely notice that with superthick juices it's slower but not by much on the consumption.

A few responses here referenced the original Lemo and not the Lemo 2

...just FYI..they are completely different animals.

Instead of the dual 28ga coils, try a single twisted 28ga coil. The resistance will be the same, and you'll be able to throw a lot of power at it and get a really flavorful, thick vape.

+1 to BeerGolfClouds recommendation. Currently running a twisted 28 gauge in the lemo 2, 7 wraps around a 3/32 drill bit ohming out to around 0.8, it's perfect really.

I have been experimenting with a few different set ups to get it right, and think I might just have got there,

It is a staged coil with 5 wraps of 28 g twisted put through the holes of the base with 4 wraps of 26 g with the legs wrapped under the screw heads, it is almost perfect!
Coming out at 0.5

Give me a couple of days and I will try it swapping the 26g for 28g it should give it a slightly quicker warm up time.

I will let you know what I think

Twisted 26 Nichrome 80.. 3 mm coil (.5 Ohms) wicked with rayon rocks.
