    Bottom feeder?

    I know it won't :) That's just something I tell people that can't quite decide, to push them over the edge. It just happens to be the truth though.

    Cyborg - ProVari Killer?

    I really hope there will be no "killing". I hope there will be just another good device that can actually compete with Provari and push it to get better. Just like Vamo didn't kill ZMax

    Uh-oh . . . . . What's this?

    One more thing that affects how it feels is the tightness of the coil on the wick. I use cotton, and it expands to fill the coil. If I stuff some silica through an existing coil (I don't like coiling around a wick), a smaller surface of the wire touches the wick and I get stronger throat hit...

    Uh-oh . . . . . What's this?

    Difference is pretty big. My sweet spot (with cartos) is 1.7 on unregulated reos. Tight coil at 2.6 ohm feels about the same as spread coil at 1.7 ohm. Same wick, same shape and size of coil, same materials.

    Uh-oh . . . . . What's this?

    Spreading the coils just a little bit should make it feel like 1.1 again :) If you want, that is.

    He uses 28 ga against your 30. From the looks of it, 13 wraps of that will put him at about 1.2 ohm

    RBA wicking material: Ekowool

    How well does it bend and/or expand? As in, how possible is it to stuff it through an existing coil?

    My REO mods review!!

    Great review! And nice Mini :) And yes, it will fit A7 mini. I preferred the Hornet -- it generally vapes better and is quite a bit shorter. Long atomizers on the mini kind of defeat the purpose, IMO.

    Double post, sorry

    Post pictures of your working wick and coil setup

    Oh. Hmm, back to the vapin board I guess :) Just as things started making sense. I guess I'll have to measure it by battery life, since I'm not quite fancy enough for the two multimeters bit...

    RM2 / RBA 2.0 / Reomizer 2 Rebuild Tutorial

    Meh. My field rebuilding kit involves a cotton ball tucked inside a Grand, and a Spyderco or SOG in my pocket. I generally keep my knives sharp enough to cut wicks without disturbing the coils, so it works pretty well

    Post pictures of your working wick and coil setup

    Russ, I think I figured it out, why micro coils hit harder than their resistance. Up until now I was making my micro coils sparse, at about 1.5 ohms, and was wondering what you were talking about. Tonight I got bored, and made a dense micro coil like yours, where the loops touch. Made it with...

    RBA for Mini v1 worth it?

    Not that I need to ask, Russ, but please post your results on XC-116. I'm very curious about it, but haven't tried spending the money on it yet. It's kind of expensive for experiment purposes

    My RBA Mods & Other Reo Related Mods

    Wow, the plot thickens. The one I had, I bought exactly the same as the SS clone you listed. The URL, price and all matches. Mine has "SS colored" aluminum cap. At least I'm fairly certain that it's aluminum, since I used my pocket knife to make the air hole bigger :) I have a decent knife, but...

    My RBA Mods & Other Reo Related Mods

    Thank you, Darkzero! That's where I got mine, maybe I was just unlucky or less gentle than I should have been. I don't really have tools, so I had to use the arm press and my fat self to push the center pin out. The negative post ended up breaking off easily, but I think it might be related to...

    Bottom feeder?

    Well, I really think you'll like it. If not, it would make more sense to put it on classies than continue using it only to drive a genesis tank. On classifieds you can generally get most of the money you spent on it back.

    Lazy and impatient.

    Ah. I did not go through ebay, I went through their site directly.

    I might regret asking, but what kind of job do you have where your boxers hit the floor? :)
