    Removing saftey pin from firing button shaft

    That's the process I used the first few times. Last one, I just asked Rob for a button without a locking pin when I was buying the Reo. You can also buy just the button from him, without the lock That's exactly it. Not a problem on a stock button, but if you add the cover to the button, it...

    With the reomizer any reason to shop other rba

    I have several devices. The only ones that see any use are the two Reos, and a home-made plumbing tube monster I made for building and testing coils. It does have an AGA on top of it, but I don't even remember what juice is in that :)

    Wick's thermal capacity?

    XS-116 Silica Sleeving - Kidney Puncher This is where I got it. It didn't "poom" out when cut, but that was after torching it.

    Wick's thermal capacity?

    Unfortunately, mine is 1/16. I stick an 18 gauge needle inside before wrapping it, and it comes out about 3mm or slightly bigger in diameter. The coil looks to be slightly larger diameter than my usual "wrapped around a toothpick" setup. Wish it was thinner, but this works great still. 4 days...

    Wick's thermal capacity?

    116 :) And thanks! Is there 132? I think that would be interesting -- smaller coil, should still wick fast enough

    Hide yo Mod, hide yo eGO..and hide you 510 too, they harass'n errybody up in here!

    Right. But the bare minimum should include the not harassing people when they don't understand what they're harassing them about. Assuming that a civilian is a criminal just because you don't understand the purpose of a gadget in his hand is very dangerous in a world full of new gadgets. If I...

    Need good shorty cartos for bottom feeders.

    I third the 1.7 smok tech shorties. Been using RBAs for a while now, but I usually still carry a few of those cartos in my glove box "just in case". Lots of places sell them, Rob's price seems to be good though, with cheap and fast shipping. Some places sell a very pretty clear plastic version...

    RM2 / RBA 2.0 / Reomizer 2 Rebuild Tutorial

    Depends on how "compatible" juices are. If I absolutely want to not taste any of the old juice, I have to give my Reo a bath. Take the atomizer off, battery and bottle out, and wash it out thoroughly. And wash out the atomizer. If the wick in my atomizer is cotton, I take it out, dry-burn the...

    Liquid feed for an old dripper?

    Oid is when you stuff so much wicking material into the attys that it is capable of absorbing amount of juice comparable to a carto. Problem is ran into with that is that extra wicking seems to mute flavor. It's very convenient, but kind of defeats the purpose. Some people say they didn't have...

    Hide yo Mod, hide yo eGO..and hide you 510 too, they harass'n errybody up in here!

    I agree, there may be a nasty fine involved. But when an armed cop takes something away from you without any paperwork, it stops being a confiscation, and becomes an armed robbery.

    Another Nextel and Ecowool impression

    Well, you could make a microcoil and fit it inside the 116 nextel. I intuitively agree with pdib -- it won't provide enough airflow on the coil directly, and will produce too much throat hit. But I'm totally gonna try :)

    1st Day Using Nextel XC-116 (1/32") Ceramic Rope

    Housing a wire inside is the original purpose of both nextel and ekowool :) Using them as wicks turned out to be a pleasant side effect.

    Converting the significant other

    What worked for me (or rather for my wife) is me showing her that thread about "show us your girlified pretty pink PVs". She started with some decorated egos, and recently graduated to a pink L-Rider Robust with some dangly charms hanging off it. Now she wants a bedazzled IBTanked and trippy...

    Hide yo Mod, hide yo eGO..and hide you 510 too, they harass'n errybody up in here!

    Depending on how ambitious you are, and how annoyed you got with the ranger, you could contact his superiors, and have him fired for incompetence and harassment. Cigarette lighters and teaspoons can be used as illegal drug paraphernalia, and I would imagine there were a lot of people using...

    Liquid feed for an old dripper?

    Funny that you mention magnum. It does have that option, though they call it "long barrel" :) I haven't tried any other 510 atomizers (not counting rebuildables). Heat-wise, 357 is comparable to a shorty 1.7 carto. Warm, not too warm. A lot cooler than a 306. Having tried rebuildables first...

    Another Nextel and Ecowool impression

    If was wondering that myself. Gonna try on the next iteration. I've tried that with cotton a long time ago on A7. That worked, but I think it left more airflow to the coil. This has a chance of producing too strong of a throat hit. Or not, definitely worth trying.

    Another Nextel and Ecowool impression

    Ecowool is (as I learned very recently) a misspelled version of ekowool. It's a cheaper and arguably slightly worse version of Nextel wick. Hollow silica. Better than the usual silica as far as wicking and fraying. The court is still out on flavor. I got mine at kidney puncher
