    Micro Coil for the RBA on your REO

    I'm sure more experienced people will contribute better info, but... I've found the balls are wrapped in a certain direction. If you pull from the side of this direction you will get longer strands of cotton. With the grain, so to speak. When I first started using them I always pulled off too...

    The REO Lounge - Part II

    I just wanted those because they are dirt cheap and look all mad scientist, steam punk, or the midget guy in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome-ish (Master was his name I think). I have a 15x printer's loupe so I know 20x is way too much. But I liked your variable 2x to 3.5x glasses for actual work...

    The REO Lounge - Part II

    While admiring Gil's nifty new magnifiers I saw this 20x one. $6 shipped. Have to get a pair, only because they look cool. Watch Repair Magnifier Loupe 20X Glasses With LED Light: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific

    An Affordable RBA, turn key & safe for our mods

    I'll try messing with the cap, after I tighten up the center post. I think I'll use a multimeter to check for continuity between the cap and the two little posts. I originally checked the resistance with one of the little black plastic ohm meter boxes. The coil looks fine... More: Took out the...

    An Affordable RBA, turn key & safe for our mods

    The carto is unacceptable. I'm too tired and bummed out to rig up a different RBA or put on an atty. I just want to kick myself. When it didn't fire right away - I should have known. Oh well... I have three reomizers. I've previously only used one of them. I should have looked closer when I...

    Crap. Put on a brand new reomizer. It wouldn't fire. Foolishly pulled out my newly acquired Short Stop and fired again. Goodbye spring. I should have known better. It ohm'd out at 2.25 though. When I took it off it looked like this: Any ideas on what was wrong. The gap looks suspect. Crap...

    What is stuck in your button top?

    Mine have only air. They haven't moved on me. But I haven't had them that long. And they are working fine. If I decide to remove the lock-out pin on the buttons themselves I might try to put something in there to avoid any potential issue. Appreciate all the ideas!

    Wyoming VAPECRIME

    Hey Davelog... Do you have a more descriptive list of what was stolen? I live near Denver, which is the closest major city to most of WY. I can keep an an eye out if I knew what to look for besides the Reos.

    Zomg, bamboo cotton

    18 gauge to mm to inches got me thinking... Might be a little off-topic, but I use this site to do mathematical conversions. Comes in handy when you want to switch from mm to decimal inches to whatever. Handy all around the house. A pinch is how much of a teaspoon? MegaConverter 2

    Bit the bullet ordered a Mini 2.0 - 18490 need some advice

    I'd stick w/ the recommended battery. A lot of people here order from RTD Vapor. I have and they offer quick shipping and good communication... Start off with some regular atomizers or cartomizers. Too much confusion and tinkering with the RBA's in the beginning, IMO.

    That locking mechanism...

    What steps do you take to remove this pin. Do I need to remove the big delrin button cap?

    An Affordable RBA, turn key & safe for our mods

    Don't cancel your Grand order. It is the workhorse of APV's. And there will likely be a huge feeding frenzy on a new model. Especially if it is some radical new design. I'll be in line myself, but I'm sure the demand will far exceed the supply.

    Drip Shields -- functionality and looks?

    Jan is spot on here. I bought a couple before I discovered Reos. Planned on using them with a Buzz and some 510 attys. Also had to buy some 510to510 adapters. At the time they were hard to get. I wanted black w/ silver rings but settled for gold w/ silver rings. After receiving them they...

    ERA o-ring question

    Does this RBA need a 1mm x 10mm oring between atty and a reo the like the reomizer? I'm confused on that. Or is the 1mm x 10mm the size used to seal the cap to the base. I ordered and received one but just pulled it out of the package a minute ago. Thanks.
