I put it in the mail yesterday. I thought of including an atty, but I have a deep mistrust with USPS. I didn't want to risk losing anything I didn't have to. No cleaning needed, I never got past trying to screw on an atty.

Wow I have collapsed two springs but nothing like that. I am interested in hearing what others have to say.
If he tapped out the 510 threads there could be some metal shavings in the connection causing a short. I would take it completely to bits (even take the grub screw out) and wash it real good and maybe some compressed air.

@Jugband I cant imagine Rob didn't completely clean out the 510 when he redid it. I could be wrong though... You could do as ckquatt mentioned above. That would be a good starting place. The only other thing I can think of is your battery. What brand of battery are you using? Is the wrap in perfect condition? Other than that I would say it needs to go back to the spa with the atty or atty's you are wanting to use. Do you have any other Reo's with the adjustable 510 installed?
The only batteries I use are AW IMR 18650. I'm very vigilant about the wraps, I even have some tucked away for spares in case I need them. The wraps look perfect, not a nick. I have the adjustable 510 on all my Reo's. That why I sent this one back I bought in the classifieds, I like them all to be updated. I really just don't know? This is the only one I've ever had trouble with. It's got me?
I suspect there is a way, using a multi-meter, to test the mod itself for a short.
Hopefully someone will be along with the knowledge.
I'd call Rob tomorrow and explain the situation.

Have you taken the grub screw out of the 510 and blew it out? Other than that I am at a loss. It might be best to just get it back to Rob with the atty or atty's you intend to use.
I agree with all of this. I suppose one lil stubborn metal shaving could have resisted the cleaning. But would definitely call Rob right away! So sorry you're having so many problems with this. Wow. What a meltdown.
As to the cyclone not firing.......did you try raising the grub in the 510 at all?
Thanks again everyone!
I was going to throughly clean out the 510 as suggested, it seemed probable that it was a metal fragment. I have extra positive contacts and springs, but my button melted, I don't have extras of those. So I went ahead and emailed Rob with pics and the entire story. He asked me to again send the mod back. He said he would change the 510 himself this time and get to the bottom of the problem. Just left the post office, it's on it's way back. Hope all goes well

sorry yur without yur baby again......but he'll git to the bottom of it for sure! Sounds like someone else did and might notta cleaned it out, or at least not good enough. I'm sure he'll even add a extra dose of porky dust to it!Thanks again everyone!

Yes, Rob asked me to include the atty that I used when the mod shorted. He said he wanted to check it out just to be certain.
Just in case anyone is still interested I thought I would conclude the saga 
I received the mod back today. Rob said it was not my attomizer that caused the short. He said he was puzzled, but his guess was also a bur may have been left in the threads. Now here's the great part! He took care of it himself this time, replaced the 510, it's now butter smooth! Every atty works perfectly on it! What's more, he took it upon himself to refund me $20.00 to cover my extra shipping cost! This is the customer support you only get with Reo's mods! Just wanted to share the good news, and how awsome Rob handled it!

So glad everything is working great now! I had a feeling he'd make up the extra shipping you had! He's such a wonderful person!Just in case anyone is still interested I thought I would conclude the saga

Thank you!
Rob also asked me to let him know how it was working when I got it back. I emailed to let him know it was perfect, and thanked him again for everything. He just replied and said as long as I was happy that's all that matters.
And people wonder why we are dedicated Reonauts
Looks like its been some time since anyones had questions or problems... I think its truly because Reo's are built like a tank are the simplest vaping device available...
Lets bump this up to the top just in case though...

Hey muzic, good you brought it up. Is Rob still supporting the mods? My woodvil hasn't been in use in a while, and I'm afraid something would crack when I try using it [emoji53]
