A Certified Fair Trade Sloth's First Day With A REO

[Sloth Tonight]

what size drill bit/diameter do you use for your coil kinggirl? i heard more diameter = more vapor and flavor. i used a 5/64 drill bit for 9 wraps or so. do you use bigger or smaller size coil? whats the ideal number of wraps for surface area?

as for air hole i'm terrified of drilling it out but if it can be done by hand i may try it. but if i screw it up, id cry

 

[Sloth Tonight]

oh - and i don't have an ohm reader but i use my MVP to check resistance and build on. i do want to buy a battery tester though

 

[ckquatt]

Great choice in REO! You cant go wrong with copper and black! Looks snazzy!!

 

[Sloth Tonight]

agreed on color cq...it goes perfect with nature, which is why i chose it!

I use the coil gizmo thing and use the 2nd smallest mandrel. Do you have this? http://www.amazon.com/Artistic-Wire-Coiling-Deluxe-Jewelry/dp/B0068RQ85K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1406823915&sr=8-1&keywords=artistic+wire+gizmo

the mvp2 won't read below a 1.2 ohm coil. I suggested that b/c I like mine right at .9 to 1ohm so the mvp2 wouldn't read that.

 

[Sloth Tonight]

that's actually not true KG - the mvp will read any ohm, it just wont fire below 1 ohm i've thought about one of those gizmos...hmmm looks enticing. i kind of enjoy doing it by hand though. i'm guessing the second smallest mandrel would be about the same size as what i used (second smallest drill bit) so i may stick with that for my next coil

awesome! good to know then since I have a mvp2 sitting around somewhere lol. I pulled out my drill bit kit from when I used to do by hand and yes I was using 5/64.

 

[Sloth Tonight]

cool...I'm washing everything out atm and gonna try maybe 7 wraps around a 5/64. does less wraps = less surface area = laser vapor though?

 

[motabrownie]

Im usually a 5/64 guy but lately Ive been using 3/32. I tried 1/8 but found thats a little too big for some rda's

 

[Sloth Tonight]

mota what do you suggest for the REO, or s t too soon to say? i know i tried a 3/32 or whatever the next step up from 5/64 on the KFL and it produced better results

 

[motabrownie]

I think I prefer 3/32. Ive been building 3/32 coils on my RDA's for about a week. Depends on the deck size too. Larger coils might not fit. Threw one on my RM4 and it fit good.

 

[Sloth Tonight]

ahh you got an RM4 - how you like it?

 

[motabrownie]

Im lovin it. I went with the RM4 because of the AFC and since it was about the same price. I think the airholes are bigger on RM4 too

 

[Sloth Tonight]

that's awesome, i may get that on my second REO

so i just built a 1.2 ohm microcoil, was aiming for 1 or 1.1 and the b*stard read 1 ohm at first but once i was done securing it and moving it to where i want it it went up to a steady 1.2. oh well. letting the wick sit in juice for a second...18mg Virus in this bad boy...my .... is about to be kicked

 

[Sloth Tonight]

So I think Im about to place an order for one of these bad boys....Any suggestions? I got the Reo Grand copper vein LP with a brass button top... probably gonna get the RM2?? And some extra 6ml? bottles? Hmm... gotta love impulse buy...well Ive been planning to get one, but I am making some extra cash and I need to treat myself for 3 months smoke free

Sounds like your all set. I got a couple extra bottles as well. I got the RM4 though cuz it has AFC but I dont see myself using it much. I think it has larger airholes too.

 

[Sloth Tonight]

I got a lot of cheap extras cause theyre cheap...ie extra screws, o-rings, bottles, tubes...and a repair kit is almost a must. this way if ANYTHING goes wrong you can fix it yourself. i think from what i hear the RM2 is the easiest to use (understatement for sure the word "easy") and i love it. if you're really good with coils and dont need tons of work space maybe go with what mota got an RM4 for adjustable airflow control. that parts totally up to you but i also must add the brass button is a good pick looks great with the copper vein

Dude I love your avi!! Thanks for your reply. Im probably gonna go with the 4 just for more flex...They all look good though!

 

[built4feel]

So the batteries are 18650s flat top, right? probably gonna go to 101vape for those, the link on reo's site is dead...
