Hello everyone,

I decided to kind of review the Lemo 2, as I have it for a while now and I'd like to share my experience with it along with a few tips for people who just bought it.

I gotta say, it's a pretty damn good RTA, it chucks quite nice and dense clouds and you can still taste the liquid even at fully opened airfow. Speaking of airflow, it's pretty loose, not as loose as breathing on your own, but I manage to fill my lungs with vapour in about 4-5 seconds.

The fill port is very convenient, I don't have to unscrew anything, like I had to in my Kanger Mini Protank 3 for example. You just have to close the airflow, open the fill port and fill her up.

The deck is not too tiny, and it's not too difficult to rebuild on it once you get the hang of it.

One problem though - if you want to rewick the deck, you have to vape all the liquid out of it, because you'll waste it otherwise, as unscrewing the deck section also detaches the tank, spilling all the juice.

Fitting the coils into the deck can be hard in the first few tries, but once you get the hang of it, the coils look pretty nice on the deck.

This is my first coil build on the Lemo 2. As you can see, it's quite crooked.

That's my second build, and it looks much better than the first one, there's still area for improvement though.

So, you just need a bit of experience and the coils will eventually get better and better.
To prevent the coils from getting all crooked, you need to make sure to trim the wires as short as possible, but not too short, that you cannot get the to stay in place.

I've also noticed, that 0.4 ohm builds on a 3mm coil with 24g kanthal burn the juice and it tastes terrible. But, I've only built that once, so it might just be me doing something wrong.

That's pretty much it, I guess. Sorry if this review is absolute garbage, it's my first one after all.

---EDIT---

I completely forgot to mention the other stuff, that comes with Lemo 2. You get a bit of 24g kanthal, if I'm right. You also get a screwdriver, which has two heads - a flat head and a cross head. A few additional O-rings, if you manage to lose some, and a couple of screws for the deck. You also get some japanese cotton and filling instructions.

There should also be a scratch code on the bottom of the box the Lemo 2 comes with, which is used to check the authenticity of the tank in Eleaf's website.

Get a couple more wraps on your coil and taste will improve :). Thanks for sharing your thoughts :thumbs:

Also, if you're getting burnt flavor, might be too much or too little wick, or its blocking the juice channels on one or both sides.
Yeah, that's what I did regarding wraps, I'm running a 0.6 ohm coil right now, tastes great!

A little tip: Keep your bit inside the coil while you install it. That will maintain it's shape.

The Lemo/Lemo 2 are two of my all time favorites.
I always keep the drill bit inside, the problem was, that the wires of the coil were too long, making it more difficult to install the coil without it getting crooked. Trimming the wires a bit helps out. Thanks for the tip though!

This is my favorite coil winding tool. It's just too easy to use. Each step gives you an edge to compress against after winding. Amazon.com: 5.5" Step Mandrel For Wire Bending In 5 Sizes: 1/2mm, 2, 3, 4, & 5mm
The only thing I dont like about this one is that it doesn't have 1/2 mm measurements for 2.5. I'm leaning towards something like this - $2.74 Vaping Coil Winding Jig Tool for Rebuildable Atomizers - stainless steel / 1.5mm + 2.0mm + 2.5mm + 3.0mm + 3.5mm sections at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping - instead.
