An Affordable RBA 2.0

[FeistyAlice]

Yes, both bought recently...a week apart.

I dont have a gauge, but its an obvious difference that one is drilled way bigger than the other.

(they looked scratched up, but its just reflections...they are brand new)

Wow!!!! That is quite obvious. Your smaller hole is what my five look like. Contact Robert and he'll take care of you. Sorry for your hassle. You can PM him, user name redeyedancer.

Ok thanks, sent him a PM.
Im thinking I may have somehow received a returned RM2...I did notice the inside ceramic base was scratched up too. Wasn't a huge deal, but I did wonder why.
Also, makes sense now that it leaks out when its given a good squonk.

That looks like a 1/16". And to think you got it free. I had to drill mine to that specification

Not sure why you would do that? I was getting frustrated because it kept leaking from the hole. The smaller one doesn't leak.

Someone certainly thought the same as you, but Robert replied to my PM and said they are all the same....just some sort of mixup. He quickly offered to make it right... hes been great to deal with in all aspects.
Mistakes happen, no biggie!!
Wont stop me from buying again

Dude. Robs the real deal.

No leaks from mine cause I hits mine with the airhole pointed up. You should be too

I enlarge mine cause I prefer a little more air, but I will say the first used rba I got had a 1/16" airhole. I HATED it cause i was used to stock. I traded the vaping equivalent of a left nut for it so i diligently used it. About 3 days later I acclimated to it. Since then, all my RBAs get put under the drill

Hey all. I've been lurking in this thread since the beginning and am finally gonna get it on the fun! I ordered a Reo Grand and an RM2 on Sunday and am (not so) patiently awaiting their arrival.

What's a typical turnaround time from the order being placed to order being shipped? Both items were shown as in-stock when I ordered, but I haven't received any shopping info so far.

If you ordered over the weekend your order shipped out today . Two to 3 days in the states is a normal delivery time . Your tracking will come from PayPal not from reos mods .

Thanks, Rob! Looks like I'm getting an early taste of why your customers love working with you.

(For those keeping score at home, I just checked PayPal and my order actually shipped yesterday) :beer:

Yeah, it's great to have a Rob isn't it? Philip Morris never chatted with me and I spent 10's of thousands of dollars on his products.

Mr. Honda never calls me either and I've had like 13 of his cars / trucks in the last 15 years and nearly as many bikes and ATV's.

The REO is a reflection of Rob. It's badayuss, always workin and you can count on it to deliver.

Yes you can but you can't count on it to deliver a pizza like one of those Honda's will.

 

[ancient puffer]

Maybe someday, Rob will make a REO with a slot in it to hold your cell phone. Then, though it won't *deliver* a pizza, it can order you one

Can someone please tell me the difference between the Reomizer 1 vs 2?

Edit: Found a pic, looks like no ceramic "bowled" base is a big difference.

The posts on the Reomizer were not too stable. Some had problems with them snapping off the base. They were sent with hex screws and working with them was tough.

Juice hole was in the center.

As you stated no ceramic base.

I have two Reomizer's on right now. One on a Mini Woodvil and another on a Woodvil. They work fine, but do not provide the ease of use, stability, durability and vape that you will find with the RM2.

I must also say that Robert did his best to provide a RBA and the Reomizer gave us a RBA to fit and work on our REO's. He was also quick to respond to problems with the Reomizer. When he felt it was time he pulled it off the shelf.

I like that fact. He would rather see us Reonauts with a product that follows his pattern of durability and workmanship.

His RM2 lives up to his standard of business.

Thanks for the info ^

I do have a couple of the RM2 and they are awesome. There will be more in my future.
Snagged a V1 off the classies, just out of curiosity

If people as esteemed as SXD say an RM2 rivals a Chalice for vaping performance then it's good enough for me. I bought 12 of them and they are all running fine, some suffer a little ceramic discolouration but nothing that stops them working as they should.

I may have forgotten how to make coils for anything else, because i am so used to these. There are a lot of different ways of making your coils that it will accommodate, so give it a go! To short one requires a great deal of effort - so even a sloppy coil will work, just not as well.

I'm just wondering what I'm missing that you'd need 12 RM2's T! And my wife thinks I spend too much on vape gear. I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to justify buying a new Reo Mini for a backup.

So is everyone still happy with their RM2's? I have one on it's way, can't wait to see if I can get it running.

There's not much you can buy vape wise for $43 that will do as much for your vape as the RM2. Come to think of it, there's prolly nothing.

Personally I am extremely pleased with my RM2's. They are a breeze to build and are rock solid performers.

 

[lizardnipples]

Thanks for the updates. Did you guys drill out the air hole or leave it stock? I'm hoping the experience is good enough to allow me to get rid of my genny's and invest in a backup Reo and a couple more of these.
