Any chance the bottom end could be ground down to fit my mini? Ever since i popped two springs on my phoenix rba ive been keery of using adapters on my mini so its been gathering dust while i play with my new rba atties and tanks...

That or any chance we could send our minis in so the well could be enlarged to accept this atty? Id pay for that then id have my BF rba atty that i REALLY want

Just hold off a little longer. Robert will have his modified-to-RBAs out pretty soon AND they will fit the REOs that can't take an ERA and other BF RBAs. And Robert's will be very affordable.

This atty wont work on a mini without a adapter . This atomizer isn't like the phoenix the center pin wont float .You can adjust the center pin in the atomizer so adapters center pin would be flush . I could do it for you easy enough and would be happy to do so

Calling all Genisis pros! Good tips in here for getting your wick ready and trouble shooting.

#500 SS Mesh Very very long thread full of good info, long story short solid tight wick no straw or tube in the middle and the higher the mesh number ie 400 or 500 the better no difference for vg or pg, I'd start with 400 as 500 can get pricey while you are trying to get the wick to work just right.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2pjHVZlF0M and vid for making a ss mesh wick, you cna use a gas stove in place of the torch.

I'm putting this up because I just went through this process and its a pain if you don't know what you are doing, hope this helps someone!

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/rebuildable-atomizer-systems/347061-cant-easy.html This post is mine after reading about people not oxidizing their mesh first just dry burning the coils. I don't know if Id recommend trying to set any Mesh wick up on the reos as you have a good chance of the spring collapsing with any shorts (correct me if I'm wrong), but with a mod with short protection, this worked great and was far easier and quicker than the "Traditional" methods

I can't wait to try one. I have also seen some called an A7. Some also claim they work on Reos. Just wondering if you have seen them and whether you recommend them? Don't want to short out my VV Reos. Do you recommend using rebuildables on Reos. I am just worried about shorting out the electronics. i have already done it to a Vmax. Replacing a VV Reo isn't cheap. :?:

This is the A7 I was asking about

Hello Karla I haven't used the a7 personally . If your going to use a rba the vv units are the best place to start they have a protection circuit .

Karla... I use the A7... GREAT atty, with a little storage area for over Squonking.. very forgiving in my opinion... It draws air from the botton and has 2 holes. Very airy draw, but that can be adjusted by plugging one of the holes with the tip of a toothpick...

Hi everybody :) I have 2 questions regarding this atty if any1 could help me out before purchasing I would be grateful

1. Will this atty fit reo mini 18490 ?

2. Do bottom fed rebuildable attys leak like this one or ERA leak when you put your reo in the pocket and lets say sit down. I mean if reo is laying down flat the juice wont be coming out of the side hole right ? Are the exceeds of juice sucked back into the bottle or stay in the atty ?

Thanks in advance :)

bydus, I haven't (obviously) tried this particular one, but I have three different rebuildables now (the Chalice, the ERA, and the A7) and none of them leak. The A7 could possibly leak if you lay it down, because it has a well that holds liquid in it (the other two don't.)....but it doesn't leak for me because I try not to over-squonk it. The Chalice....the juice goes right back down the hole and into the bottle; the ERA....the juice doesn't go back down, but unless you just TRIED to flood it, it doesn't leak, either; the A7...like I said, it could leak, but never has for me.

These new rebuildable attys are the cat's meow if you ask me. Best thing I've tried in a l-o-n-g time. (I've been vaping for almost 2 and 1/2 years and these things are game changers for me.)

I can't seem to find a down side to these things. They give me the best vape I've EVER had. I am getting really good (and fast!) at wrapping coils, so that's no problem at all. I'm sure I'll be saving LOTS of money by being able to rebuild my attys instead of constantly buying new ones. To me it's all win-win.

EDIT: About the Mini 18490....I don't think any of them will fit the metal mini or the metal 18490. The A7 and the Chalice will fit my WOODVIL 18490. I don't think the one that Rob will be selling will fit anything but the Grand or the VV Grand. All of the rebuildables will fit the Grand and the VV Grand.
