It's official, IMO, the Lemo2 is a piece of crap

[joeyboy]

It is in the drawer never to be used again. Any tank that leaks over half of the fluid right after filling isn't worth the time. The design sucks. There has to be something better to work with.

Very disappointed with this product. $30 dollars wasted.

Washed it with the wick and coil, closed it up and put it away.

I know other just love it. I am definitely not one of those.

Get it out again. Mine did that at the beginning, until I learned how to stop it!

a) moisten the O rings slightly when you put it together (with VG or juice). Do NOT over tighten and squish the o rings!
b) make sure you have a fairly big coil (3mm) that can hold a fair bit of wick
c) when you fill it be sure the AFC is closed. Then take off the drip tip, put your finger over the hole, open the juice fill port and fill - NOT all the way - make sure there's a good sized air bubble. Close the juice hole, take your finger off the drip tip hole, open AFC.
d) voila - no more leaks!

Give you a lemo drop for it? Lol

Thats exactly how I fill mine. No leaks, run 80% vg in it with a .4ohm 3mm id 24 gauge coil. Used the Buttkickers wicking method, vaping it atm at 44 watts and it's putting out without burned hits.

 

[efektt]

You are doing something wrong. I have probably used 50 tankfuls in mine with no leaks.

 

[joeyboy]

For one thing the fill hole is do difficult to get open I would need pliers to hold my finger over the drip tip. I got a bad one but since I did not buy from a "reputable" dealer I am stuck with it. I have to use a rubber tournequet to hold it to open and close the fill hole. It Sucks. Probably the only one like that.

If you know a fix, I am all ears.

Are you sure the top and bottom o rings aren't switched? Some of them came that way, and if they are you won't be able to open the fill hole! They are ever so slightly different sizes (hard to tell).

 

[ariuskooo]

Mine NEVER leaked, i mean it, i dont like flawour of it that much, any maybe airflow could have been bigger, but this is mine only atty that never leaked (at least yet)

 

[AZ4running]

Send it me and I will use it lol. My Kanger Subtank with rba hase never leaked and flavor is awesome, love it. I am interested in the Lemo 2.

 

[joeyboy]

I will check that. Thanks.

Is there supposed to be multiple o rings on the top? Mine has two. Will one not work? Maybe multiple on the bottom too.

 

[Kay_Fun!]

My issue with this tank is the the positive post connection is not stable. I turned the screw out a bit as suggested but the ohms keep jumping to 0.0 at times. No, it is not my coil connections- I've tried 3 builds with the same results. Grrrrr

 

[AmandaD]

One clear on top and one on bottom (the ones that touch the glass). One small black one on the chimney.

 

[joeyboy]

So could the two o rings on each side of the glass be causing the difficulty?

One on top and one on bottom. If you had two on the top you would have trouble opening the fillhole....

 

[The Vaping Goat]

I'm more than disappointed with my Lemo 2. It doesn't leak it's just seriously lacking in flavour yet thinks my juice needs drinking as fast as possible because it's going out of fashion.
My best build in it has been a twisted 28g on a 2.5mm diameter at around 0.9 ohms.

I use the Butt Kickers wicking method too, his approach works well for all my RTA's.

 

[dre]

Anyone wanna trade there lemo 2 for a goblin

 

[The Vaping Goat]

Yes I do! I already have two Goblins but a third would be nice lol

 

[joeyboy]

I agree. When I did get it to work it slammed juice. I almost didn't want to use it due to that. I actually tried to compare by rda amount to the lemo. I still think the lemo won. Looking at the billow v2 now and wondering if it uses juice as much.

 

[The Vaping Goat]

I wouldn't mind so much if it was an awesome piece of kit, but it ain't. It's a well below par failure that is a million miles away from the Goblin.

 

[Mykline]

I believe all the sub-ohm tanks suck down the juice. I have a Maganus and a Atlantis V1 and the Maganus sucks down the juice at least twice as fast as the Atlantis.

 

[Het]

I'm digging my 'old style' Lemo. It took me a few weeks, but once I found out what it liked, it's quickly become my favorite. I like it a lot better than my subtank mini.

 

[joeyboy]

One on top and one on bottom. If you had two on the top you would have trouble opening the fillhole....

I actually had no O-rings installed. I have the two extras but cannot figure out how to work them. I guess the small one goes on the bottom and the large one on top. They just seem to sit there.

It'll leak without the O rings (which are what seal the glass and allow a vacuum to be created). I can't actually remember which one goes where, but I do know they have to be in the right place

Edited to add: I think the big one goes on the bottom.

 

[CurlyxCracker]

The butt kickers method is so tedious! I want to run max VG in my lemo drop but dry hit after dry hit with Kayfun style wick and pancake wick method. Who has the time to comb their wicks everytime you rewick!? I want to like the Lemo drop, flavor is good when it works, airflow is a bit tight but I just can't get it to wick properly. I just got a silverplay and everyone was complaining about how to wick it and leaking or dry hits but I have had neither with it and I don't have to spend 10 minutes wicking it...

 

[SweetVapinSue]

Just got a lemo2. I have it on an iStick 50W, but haven't set it over 20 W. What would cause it to give a LOUD POP when I push the button on the iStick, followed by 'smoke' from the air hole, like a smoking gun. No burnt smell, just vapor. It has the original coil. I've changed the juice and wick, but that hasn't made a difference. No leaks, but have only had it a week. It vapes fine after I fire the first shot.

 

[Zamazam]

It's probably an air pocket between your wick and coil creating a burst of super heated vapor when the coil heats up. After the juice get flowing in the wick, that air pocket is most likely filled with juice that is vaporizing.

You gotta learn how to fill it. Buy yourself a syringe. Close the bottom air flow then open the top airflow. FIll it up leave some room on top and then close it off. You will get the best flavor ever in an RTA . They need to build the next version so you can take the tank off without emptying the juice so you can fix or rebuild your tank.

It has been trashed weeks and weeks ago. Gone to the dump. Poor design.

I used a drop of e-juice as a lubricant. You'll have to lube again, once it starts to get harder to open/close the fill hole.

Another thing that needs to be mentioned regarding leaking after filling. Make sure to turn the fill hole ring all the way to it's closed position.

 

[UncleRJ]

My fill port jammed in the closed position.

But I can still fill from the bottom which is no big deal.

If its so bad why do I get better taste in it then for instance the Kanger subtank?

I'm still trying to like this, but I think I prefer my Kanger Subtanks. I've refilled it with different juice, multiple times, some more PG and some more VG. Changed the cotton. I still get this unusual POP the first time I press the button on my istick, then it vapes ok for a while. If I hit it an hour or so later, I get the same POP, like the old toy pop guns. Even get the smoke billowing from the air port that is wide open. Doesn't matter which istick I try it with. I get the normal crackle type pops from most of my subtanks, but this one is quite different. Maybe a bad coil? Haven't replaced it yet.

 

[pdasterly]

felt same way about kayfun v4, rebuilt, overhauled and she still leaked like a 80's chevy

Where did I say it's a bad tank? I only gave advice for mentioned problems. I enjoy my Lemo 2 on a daily basis, as well as other RBAs and RDAs.

 

[pdasterly]

op probably means they want something that works out the box without having to mod it to work, Im in same situation. The kayfun v4 taste sooo much better but the damn thing just leaks

Did you replace O ring #16?

 

[pdasterly]

replace every o-ring with overhaul kit from kidneypuncher, fasttech even sent me new base

I replaced #16 with a slightly bigger O ring, and it fixed the issue on all 3 of my V4s (all clones).

 

[pdasterly]

too late, i returned mine back to fasttech, waiting for replacement kanger subtank mini
