Super impressed with the Lemo Drop i got yesterday. I never wanted to get into rebuilding mainly because i didnt have the time nor patience for it.

But rebuilding on the drop has been super easy. Ton of youtube videos/reviews on how to do a rebuild on the Lemo. You dont even need to make/ change coils frequently (prob most difficult thing to do) and before changing the wicking material every week(a piece of japanese cotton for example) ,just dry burn the coil a few times to get the gunk off. I read you can extend the life of the coil for months by doing this

Worse case if your lazy, you can order pre coiled wires from places like fasttech and just mount it on the deck. Btw the1st one is already installed for you by Eleaf.

Anyways, this is a great RTA. No leak, amazing airflow, vapor/flavor. Similar to the Atlantis. But without needing to spend money on expensive replacement coils.

It's a great tank. I have several. But they CAN leak. I've got one that started leaking after about 4 months of steady use. Can't figure out why. It's particularly bad if I lay it down. I keep a spare Lemo (filled and ready to go) in my jacket pocket when I'm out on the ranch. Recently, it started leaking like a sieve if I don't keep it on a mod and use it fairly often. Not sure what's going on with it but I'm sure it's fixable. Just saying, they can leak.

You might of done all of these things but just checking. Are the rubber seals all in good condition? Do you use the rubber seal add on for faster eliquid filling? Or use the screw to close the filling hole??

How often do you change your wicking material? Is it thick enough?

Not to hijack the thread here, but if you've already checked all the usual suspects take a good look at it and see if it's dented. I saw a thread once where someone had dropped it and dented it in just the right way to screw up the seal. Once he found it, he was able to fix it, but that can be a sneaky ninja cause of leaking.
