Wondering if anyone knows where I can get these from?
I traded my crown tank for a lemo 2 and can only assume the previous owner had changed the screws in the build deck because they were tiny and the 26agw kanthal wouldn't catch under them.
Swapped them for the spares in the box of my other lemo and all good but now I've got non should I manage to lose one (which I of course now will because I've got non spare).
Emailed eleaf UK and they don't do them. I asked them to enquire with eleaf China but they've replied saying they don't do them either.
So does anyone know where I can get some?

The screws are small as standard. Try feeding the wire into the holes in the deck

What drunken said. Have to use post holes on the lemo imo. Can be a little.fiddly first time as both wires have to be angled and the end has to be bent in at a 90 degree towards the coil

I only build mine with nickel so use the screws because it's thin. For kanthal I use the deck holes. It's definitely fiddly until you get the hang of it

Sorry. I mustn't have worded that right.
I've had a lemo 2 for months. I have no issues catching kanthal under the screws. I can't use the post holes without mangling the coils. But I've never needed to because the kanthal cathches fine.
I got a second today. The screws had heads that were half the size of the ones in my original lemo 2.
I swapped them for the spares that came with my original lemo.
I'm now without spares which means I'll lose one tomorrow!

Ah, I'm with you now. Best bet is to take one of the original screws to a hardware shop or somewhere like that and try and find a match. I've not seen any spares kits available

I've emailed eleaf China to see if I have better luck there. Eleaf UK had no idea.

Talking about the Lemo 2, is it very good on flavour? I love my kayfun lites but was looking at the lemo 2 and wondering if it would compare. Like the way you can fill it and it's a glass tank. Any advice much appreciated!

Any advice much appreciated! I find the subtank mini edges the lemo for flavour but the top fill is better and I personally find the lemo easier to build on. It was my first ever rba and I've never had a dry hit. So I can only assume it's a very forgiving tank. It's too airy for mouth to lung, for me anyway. I know others use it that way with the air flow closed right off. As with all tanks there's pros and cons.

The Kayfun lite takes these screws, Deck screws: M1.6 x 0.3mm Don't know if yours are the same but Boltbase on Ebay does all different ones and I am sure they could fix you up

Got a reply from eleaf China. They don't sell the screws but gave the measurements.
This is the reply.
Here is the size of the screw: M 1.6*3.0mm P 0.35 Phillips screws and the bottom is flat.
So looks to be the same as the kayfun screws.
