a few modifications to my new Grand, and an idea for a VV Super Reo!

[badass3000]

I got my Reo Grand a couple weeks ago and love it.
Its hard to improve on perfection but I had to try.
I put a door stop on it, then
I put a 10ml bottle in it, then
I put a 2ml carto on it, then
I put a belt clip on it....

but I wont stop untill I make the worlds first VV Super Reo.

Good luck with that. How you plan on getting a POT in there is beyond me.

Slick! ;-)

The batteries need to be in series for VV.

The springs are pushed all the way down. No room at all for them to provide the safety that was intended. But nice try!

he's not using the AW imr, pretty sure that's why his spring is pushed down. I recken if you really like variable voltage, then why not try it. I think between 3.9 and 4.2 volts with 1.8-2 ohm attys is perfect for me, which is definately achievable with the reo... probably why I love my grand. I get like half a day at that voltage.

I like the 10 ml bottle idea .

First I was just going to use a DP-TT switch to go between the two voltages, I am not sure if a POT would limit the current like in the Provari. I want to be able to use dual coil cartos on high voltage, and that means alot of power.

The batteries need to be in series for VV.

I know that! It was just a quick photoshop to get the idea across.

Please enlighten me as to what safety the springs are there to provide?

Slick!

thanks.

I like the 10 ml bottle idea .

If you want to try you MUST use the softer PE bottles.

In short, a disconnect.
If a short occurs, the heat generated by the battery collapses the spring, thus dropping it away from the positive connection, severing the flow of power. This is to keep the battery from over discharging and possibly venting, causing damage to the battery or the mod. If the spring can not collapse, the heat can ruin the button, ruin the battery and possibly damage the wood mods.

so in the event that the atti shorts, somehow the trigger is held down, and the protection circuit on the battery all go bad at the same time my spring may not be allowed to disconnect.
thats like having all the planets align on Friday the 13th.
I think im ok.

I do keep triggering the circuit in my little cr123a on dual coil carto's. They require alot of current.
The circuit just turns the battery off. Quite puzzling.
The first time it happened I thought my Reo was broke. I just could not get it to fire.
took the batts out, tested fine, put back in and they worked, since the circuit had reset.

I knew you knew! My comment was just a jest and I meant no ill will. I enjoyed your photo and video.

Very slick - I'm on the hunt for a way to clip my Grand, hadn't considered just bolting one on thru the back.

I've been toying with the idea of a small LED that would sit under the bottle, so it lights up the juice in the squonkhole when you fire it.
