Anyone tried CLLEF for OH?

Recently I tried to learn some COLLs for OH. I am only looking at T, L, U and H cases as the algorithms for Sune, Anti-Sune and Pi are too nice to consider complicating things with other algorithms.

I have not diligently pursued it as:
1. The 4 OLL cases don't turn out often enough for me to want to invest too much time learning all the COLL cases.
2. Even these 4 OLL cases have nice 2-gen algorithms which makes it hard to resist just using these algorithms all the time. In the process of learning COLL algorithms, I ended up replacing my old algorithms for T, U and H for OH.

Then I found CLLEF, the opposite of COLL for edge flip, and thinking now that's something that could benefit. If doing CLLEF can offset the ugly OLL cases with nice EPLL, seems like a good idea to try. Anyone tried it for OH?

1. Its really easy to force an all-edges-oriented case.
2.The 2gen ones for T, L and U aren't actually THAT good. The COLL algs I use are pretty good though.

But no, I havent tried it. You could probably come up with some pretty decent algs using r R and U though.

1. seems like a good idea. What is a good place to learn partial edge control?

just play around with it.. like inserting with F R' F' R, R U2 R' etc

doing (U) R U2 R' instead of R U' R' doesn't affect edge orientation.

I looked up some algorithms for VHF2L to learn partial control and found that it is indeed quite easy to force edge-oriented cases! Many of the algorithms are semi-intuitive and similar.

VHF2L looks good for OH. Now I feel more confident that COLL will be often applicable after I get familiar with applying the VHF2L. Getting edge-oriented cases is nice enough, getting EPLL after that is gravy. I will spend some time learning VHF2L then COLL after that. Thanks.

Currently I am planning to try 14/16 cases of VHF2L. The only ones I don't like are the non-edge oriented cases which will still be my weakness.
