No thanks on lemo drop as it is I have to fill the lemo twice a day now

Has anyone changed the drip tip on there Lemo?
Just for the heck of it I popped the drip tip from one of my old mini protank 3s in there and I definitely felt it improved the flavor. It also made me notice how massive that stock drip tip is haha.
On a side note is anyone else super antsy for the release of the Lemo Drop? I notice that I get an improvement in flavor on my Lemo when my juice level goes just below the top part of the chimney, which would be the top of the Lemo Drop. Also, a 5ml tank is a little too big for me, I've gone to 5 days on a full a tank. I'm hoping that someone offers a "Drop" kit for the lemo, from the looks of it, the only difference is the smaller glass tank and the shorter top chimney piece, so if you got those two pieces you could probably convert your regular Lemo.

They have the Drop on the eleafus site. https://www.eleafus.com/atomizer/lemo-drop-atomizer.html. $45 :blink:
I'm just starting to search for retailers...

The Billow is going to blow the Lemo out of the water in every facet. The Lemo is nice don't get me wrong, but here is why the Billow is better.

Sexier design. Same 5ml juice capacity. Dual coil setup, tried and true Orchid style deck. Dual 2.5mm adjustable airflow for amazing lung hits, or mouth to lung is desired. Better quality gaskets, much like the nautilus. Raised air ports on the deck to ensure no flooding, as well as a cyclops design air slots for better flow around the coils. 22mm, so it will look much better on many mechs and other devices. Not to mention the Billow preorder is running for $29.99, which is a steal for this device. Also, much easier to fill, no need to remove the base like the Lemo which lets face it, is just poor design.

So all in all, the Billow will be the best rta for the times in every possible way. From build design, to functionality, and coming from EHPro and Eciggity, you know damn well the quality is going to be great. You may wanna preorder one now, as I can guarantee this will be the best of the best and will be tough to keep in stock after it catches on to the masses. Mark my words.

Preorder your'snow at Eciggity!

It looks like the Billow requires a screw driver to fill, and the chamber/chimney is one piece, so there's no adjusting your wicks after you screw on the chamber...fail.

I Like the deck design: dual coils for the win! But I've been running duals on all of my Lemos with the best results of any tank I've tried. I don't mind the screw in the fill port so much since it would probably only require filling once a day. But the one piece chamber is a definite deal breaker for me.

The Lemo also requires a screwdriver to fill. It also requires the extra step of removing the base. And about the one piece chimney, if you look closely at the design of the channels, you will see where the design is far superior to the Lemo.

To each their own. They are both big hits in their own respects. But the design, ease of use, price, all comes down to preference.

No, the Limo doesn't require any tools to fill (I own 3 of them) and removing the base is pretty simple. As far as the channels go, I'm not sure what's so special about them. They look like a slot for juice to flow through, just like any other channel.

The deal breaker is still the chamber/chimney: If you cant adjust your wicks to align with the channels, then it doesn't matter how superior they are. I've retired my Orchid for that exact reason.

The lemo comes with a rubber o-ring u can use in place of the fill the screw, which makes it infinitely easier to fill. Personally, I really don't mind that the airflow control and fill valve being underneath the 510 base, if there is any leaking (I haven't really had any) it won't get into your battery, and you don't have to worry about accidentally move the airflow control when on the move (I feel like air flow control is a set and forget it type of thing...once you get it to where you like, you really don't need to mess with it again). Plus unscrewing that bottom piece takes an extra two seconds, not that big of a deal.
That Billow looks pretty nice if you are into the dual coil thing, could definitely be a fogger killer. Personally, I prefer single coil, so the lemo is perfect for me. Those smaller deeper channels may work better on a dual coil set up, those are the same type of channels I have on my single coil mini fogger, the design "looked" superior to me, but I can't wick it in a way to avoid dry hits for the life of me.
Like you said, to each there own.

I see where you both are coming from. I also will be getting a lemo just because I know it will treat me well, and is also inexpensive. As for the one piece chimney on the Orchid, I have the v4. I also DIY my own juices, and tend to stick around 80-90% vg. So I lightly saturate my wicks, and rest the tufts just above each channel, with none actually going into the channel itself, and screw on the chimney.

Doing so, I have never had a problem with wicking, so I never needed the two piece chimney design. That said, I can also see the convenience of having the two piece chimney for those that either use a thinner juice and need to get things just right, or just struggle getting things wicking properly in general.

But, both will have a place in my daily rotation, and I personally think the Billow looks much sleeker, and will perform just as good if not better than the Lemo. Either way, I think we all can agree that it is refreshing to have such great products available these days without breaking the bank!
