New love for the Lemo Drop!

[cocacola31173]

I bought a Lemo Drop when they first came out and was excited to be able to try my cracking juices in a rta. I have Kayfuns so I was experience in building. Imagine my disappointment when I couldn't get nothing but dry hits and very thin vapor. I tried different resistances and wicking methods but nothing did any good.

Finally I put it up in my "junk" drawer disgusted that I had wasted 35 dollars. Then I saw a video where someone suggested loosening the glass tank just a hair from the bottom base. Not enough to break the seal. Because what they say can happen is the O ring pinches into the juice channels. So I tried this.

BIG DIFFERENCE! Finally the results that I was looking for and something that was so simple to do.

So if you have one with these problems just try that trick...Guarantee it will do the job!

I'm glad you got it working.

However, I think the real reason it's working is that you finally got the wicking down.

Not really I wicked it the same way as my Kayfuns. I have a little tin and I pre cut my wicks off Japanese cotton pads so they are all the same thickness and width.

I can tell you from re-wicking one of my Lemo's today, it's impossible for the bottom seal to block the liquid channels.

Wicking it like a Kayfun may be your biggest issue. The Lemo is better suited to larger coils (2.5 - 3.0mm) and wicks. Or in other words, a wick pre-cut for a Kayfun isn't enough material.

Like I said, I'm glad it's working for you now. That is the most important thing. I try new tanks all the time. Many of them are well known as "flavor" tanks. The majority of them fall far short of a well built Lemo.

I agree. I see a lot of people calling Lemos junk (of course they don't have one) around here. I have several "high end" flavor attys, and the Lemo still trumps most of them on flavor.
