Hello Deb :) glad to hear your enjoying the atomizer .

If you build your coil like this


And install it with the tails on the top side this will drop the coil so its really close to the base of the atomizer keeping your coil saturated is much easier. Remember you don't want it to touch the base of the atomizer you can adjust it easy enough I use tweezers

My Reotty came today along with my repaired VVG (new bigger button)!!
I'm pretty stoked. I like how this atty sits above the hole with plenty of room below.
I have Made some wicks/coils now and like this design where I let a loop hang down right onto the hole!
The first one I built ohmed out at 3.6ohms...yikes!! No problem on the VV!! Just turn it up!

great for Reo customers in more than one way...
I remember getting some of your EM LR atomizers when the Mini first came out (my first REAL bottom feeder), and tried your LR 901 atty... got hooked on 901's for years since - the o ring to catch leaks was trick too).
Now folks can get into RBA (b/f yet) real quick and btw, superior vapor and flavor for less $$$ for sure.

Its a cheap atty but great for folks that want to try rba or folks that dont have the green to spend on the more expensive units . The hybrid reo lol next year I can build something new

Of course

I've been using mine now since Monday, and I'm loving it. Great vapor, and easy setup. I like that there's ROOM between the posts! Some of these rebuildables (the ERA, for instance) have the posts really close together, and you're limited on how many wraps of coil you can cram in there. All in all, a good little atty at a good little price. Did I say I'm loving it? :)

Yeah I loved all the extra space between the posts. Made it really EZ to set up a wick with out any wire touching the posts.

Here is my set up for this RBA:
View attachment 153481

too funny Dave I was going to do the exact same thing but while in the process changed my mind and went with a folded piece of 3mm silica and left 1 of the tails long and wrapped that around the base but 1st I wrapped like 6 wrapsof 30awg around the internal ink tube of a bic pen slid it off pulled my silica thru torched everything and mounted it. I also drilled out my air hole to 1/16 and this thing is putting out some luscious :vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor:

also due to these not being stainless steel it was A LOT easy to drill:toast:

Just had an idea!! I'm thinking, it would be nothing for Rob to powder coat the caps to match Reos...I know it's a bit of work but seems it would be a welcomed addition by most folks and he could charge for it.

Lucky for me I'm sporting a polished VVG so mine matches perfectly:p

Have I said how much I LOVE this RBA my current wick/coil setup is just pumping out the flavor and vapor its a perfect bang for the buck product sure I'm a Reo freak you could say and if Rob sold pine cones I'd probably buy them and tell everyone that they're the best pine cones ever and in all honesty they probably would be. So what that he didn't actually design and build these completely himself although I really wish there was a stainless steel version. In a nut shell the Reomizer ROCKS enough said:D

Thanks Pietro How many pine cones do you need ? If you buy 50 I toss in a sheet of birch bark
