    Help me, I went into limbo land and everything changed while I was gone

    4-5 weeks?!? Have I missed some kind of backorder on resistance wire? I usually order from Temco through eBay and have gotten all my shipments in 2-3 days.

    How often do you squonk with an RM2?

    FWIW: 27awg, 1/16id, 0.8 ohm, cotton wicked micro and I get 3 good drags per squonk.

    too smooth?

    Running a 0.9 ohm coil on a mechanical Reo is double the the 8.5-9 watts you're running on your vv/vw setup. My best guess without seeing pics is either a bad connection with massive voltage drop or a subpar build on your rda. If you could upload some pics that would help everyone here...

    Owning good stuff

    Bunn velocity brewer for a hot cup of coffee, Coleman 75th anniversary stainless steel cooler to keep the beers cold, and a Reo Grand to vape at any temperature. I ain't got much, but these are my prized possessions ;)

    just ordered my 1st reo

    Unfortunately, with all the winter weather recently, USPS snafu's are at an all time high. I don't think it's a lot of losses so much as missed scans and tie-ups. Hope it gets there soon brother.

    New Reo Friendly vape case

    I haven't had an issue yet, but I would think anything could leak if held upside down for extended periods of time... Thanks for identifying the thread nipper, that was driving me crazy :p

    My first "Twisted 28" build on the REO (pics)

    The drill method makes an easy task ten times easier, but it's not hard at all to twist by hand and I've gotten nearly identical results. Easiest way I've found was using pliers and a pen. Cut double the length of wire you want, fold in half, place the looped end over the clip on the pen (did I...

    New Reo Friendly vape case

    Nice, clean setup; I like it. Would have to agree about orienting the Reo's so they're right side up when carrying to minimize leaking, but it is what it is (the foam should absorb any leaked juice, right :)) Quick question though: what is that black object between the handles of your wire...

    The REO arrived!!!

    The rm2 top cap is stainless steel plated brass; the brass is a little more expensive because of the additional work involved in removing the SS plating to get to the brass underneath without scratching the bejesus out of it. Lots of people hose the route of just ordering the stainless rm2 and...

    anyone any good at repairing reos ?

    Quick sidetrack: how do you like a post via ECF mobile? I accidentally went full site yesterday from my phone and realized all the likes I've gotten from my short time spent in Reoville... Feel like a total schmuck not throwing one back from time to time. Btw: I *like* this post :D

    The REO arrived!!!

    The top cap is brass, which is really soft as metals go, so any standard bit should do the trick. Welcome to the club brother.

    just ordered my 1st reo

    Welcome to the Brown Beauties club brother. Pictures can't even begin to capture the sexiness that is the copper vein with brass accents. Ya done good ;) Addit: I may have to mod something to set this bad girl up with an all brass button. I just realized from that picture the little bit of...

    Picked up some chicken and waffles... even if it's terrible, totally worth the $2 to see people's reactions when I let them "sample how my new build is vaping" ;)

    Questions about my mini

    $1/foot? Someone is ripping you off big time. Order from temco: you could've gotten about 25' for the same price... live and learn. Not a bad first attempt at all, but could definitely use some tightening up. Dry fire it a few times and squeeze with tweezers/pliers to get all the coils...

    I can now count myself among the REONAUTS!

    That would've been my suggestion as well. When I first got my grand, I noticed I would shift the battery with my thumb when squonking sometimes and just wanted to tighten that up a bit. Wrapped some tape around the battery, which snugged that up and stopped any play in the door. Win-win.
