I run .19 on my Orchids....and .5 on my Squape R. Due to the length of the chimney on the Kayfun, it would be hard to get a truly "warm" vape without going with a nano kit...and even then, not as warm as you can achieve on an rda.
You're not going to be building RTA's the same way you build your RDA's. If you threw a .16 ohm build on your lemo, you'd probably melt the insulator and definitely burn your cotton.
He's asking about the lemo ie a single coil, KAYFUN style device. Why are you showing him dual coil builds from an orchid? That's pretty much totally not applicable, since the wicking and coiling are substantially different between these two devices...Notice that the wicks are NOT touching the juice channels or the air hole!
I dunno, I build my kayfun's to .8 and a ton of vaper's I've spoke to do the same or lower. When I tried a .7 ohm build on my Lemo drop I didn't get the results I was hoping for, or even expecting, based on all the glowing reviews I'd read and watched on the device. First of all, I'm getting significantly better airflow from my orchid v2 clone by tobeco and while the lemo drop has shined at times, I'm getting inconsistent flavor and have to keep trying to adjust the airflow and wattage to try and get some good flavor. I'm all the way at 32 watts on a .7 ohm 26 guage microcoil wrapped around a 3 mm screwdriver and I'm still getting muted flavor. Somebody help for the love of all that is vaping =\
Its all about preference, man. For me .8 at 25-30 watts works. But im also very skimpy on the wicking so it can keep up with the heat. Although i agree with the Lemo being a bit temperamental. Its not nearly as consistent as my kayfun/russian, orchid or erl.
I'm not sure I follow you; less wicking isn't conducive to better wicking, in fact less wicking is much more prone to causing burnt wick/dry burns, while over-wicking is very susceptible to leaking, since it's bringing in more juice than your coils can vaporize.
If this person hasn't been able to get the basic single coil build down to where it's functioning properly, what makes you think they're ready to start trying dual coil builds, which the device isn't even made for...?
Didn't make much sense to me either till i tried it. Instead of wicking it like a kayfun normally would be, i go a bit shorter where the cotton is barely touching the deck instead of nearly filling it(excluding the juice channels) . It seems to be a bit more consistent for me that way.
Yeah I noticed that if I cut my cotton even with the top part of the chimney(bottom fat piece of chimney) then it is still a bit to much cotton so I trim it up more. To where it's basically just barely touching the deck by the juice channel.
Let us know!
You shoul try out a parallel coil build if you are looking for flavor, or perhaps a twisted coil. To achieve more intense flavor, the key is You want more coil surface area, so that the build can vaporize more juice in the same amount of time. If you go that route, just make sure you're careful and don't build too low as to stress your batteries. Good luck and happy VAPING my cloud-taming brother =]
Build your lemo to .5, try a 6/7 wrap of 28 guage around a 5/64th (apps 1.8 mm inner diameter of the finished coil) good luck and may the Vape gods smile down on your build lol
Advantage of using the screw heads is, less loss of power, due to longer "legs".
