Thanks all of you for all the info. I did get a transparent drip tip recently and just as justice said, I realised that I am flooding the atty by looking at the juice in the driptip. I think the 306s are most forgiving to flooding. Will keep working on my squonking techniques and will keep in mind that the catchcup should be dry. I seem to be able to do it while looking but while driving and blind squonking, I still mess it up. Loving the Reo otherwise. I think I will get a mini soon as well.
It may not be the norm, but thought I would add to this-when I got my mini, I was filling the drip cup more! And when I switch between the two, I have to watch myself. The grand I have no issue with but I will overflow the poor mini after using the grand. If I only use the mini all day, I am fine. Just something to think about if you do get a mini (LOVE mine btw). Then again, I am fairly new to this whole reo thing, got my first one around the 8th of Feb lol.
