I was offered by 3 generous REOnauts free rebuildables tho very appreciative I refused the 1st 2 because I knew I wouldn't deal with it and it would have been a waste on me. I did accept the 3d because they didn't want nor like it and it was already set up so what the heck right. :) Anyway I metered it @2.3Ω and thru it on the Tesla....WOW. Ok now I believe the hype but I think if I had to hassle setting it up it might be a problem with my arthritis and I spend 80% having to lay down. I gotta say it does look awesome on my REOVV!!! ;)

Are you my twin? I have the same problems but what is really worse is the eyes! I have to have very good light and high readers on to do it, but I can do it laying down with my leg elevated here at my "command center". It isn't hard at all! Of course, mine look nothing like those nice neat coils, but in the end it is the vape that matters. As long as they perform, I don't care what they look like. You don't have to do them often, but the ones for sale are $5 plus shipping! Ouch...

For $5.00 you get 5 wick and coil set ups. If you were to order 4 packs is only comes out to about $25.00 (+or-) and 20 wicks could last a person at least 6 months with changing them out every few weeks.

I do agree that building your own will be more cost affective but for convenience this well work in a pinch.

Just my 2c :)

I must have misread it, I thought they were $5 EACH! For $1 each, that would be worth it!

So they ask for wicking

1X 3mm wick
or
2X 1.5mm wick

Which should I indicate?

Sorry, I don't use silica. I can send you some bamboo thread if you like, Kay sent me a bundle all ready for use. I would love to share if you would like to try it as well. I think she sent me 2 lifetimes worth. Thanks Kay!

Thats very generous of you and if you have some at a later date I'll check with you but for now I stop using the reomizer I was given because it didn't have that bottom O-ring. I'd die if I screwed up my Tesla. I know Rob sells them for .25 and when I have a order for something I will include one. Again thank you....REOnauts ROCK! :wub:

Btw, is the screwdriver that comes with the reomizer the same as the one pictured in that $6 Pheonix?

LOL...welcome, val. I'd ordered a double batch on-line , not realizing how much thread was on one "spool"! So I have five more of those huge spools of bamboo yarn, and i don't even use them!!!

So if I have 2 lifetimes worth, and you have 5 times as much, you will be handing it down 10 generations? :lol:

Is there a video on how to rebuild a reomizer or is it just like a phoenix?

Their all very similar in the fact that you wrap some wire around some silica/Cotton etc and hook one of the ends of the wires to each of the posts its really so silly how simple it is and cheap :D
