you won't be able to sell used atomizers... imo. best to put it on the shelf until you get a VV or a 4volt unit.
You are going to learn that most droppers have tons of atomizers... I have about 50 in different varieties.
Average life is about 2- 3 weeks... some last months, but depends on how you vape. they are disposable items.
I bought 10 and 8 are brand new.......is it worth putting on classifieds? I knew better then to sell used atties LOL I think that is like selling used underwear.

I'm with the others here. For 3.7v, don't go above 2Ω. I would get just a few 2Ω and a few 1.5-1.7Ω and see which ones you like best, and then decide which you want to get more of.


General rule of thumb 1.5ish ohm for tabacco and rich flavors and 1.7-2.0ish ohm for sweater, fruity juices. But as others have said that's way to high of a resistance for 3.7 volts. Its way to cool of a vape and won't produce good vaper. You might be able to sell them maybe. Or you can hang on to them for when you get a vv volt or higher volt batts or device. Or as Mike suggested see if someone wants to trade.

Try not to get too frustrated. I was the same way myself, as I'm sure were a lot of others getting started. There is some trial and error here. It can take a while to settle on what works for you. Just buy in small amounts until you find what is best. It will all come around. :)
By the way, you got a Reo, so you did one important part of it right. :)


Everytime I think I did something right it is always wrong. This really is what I get for trying to better my health and get off ciggies. One big huge mess. Wrong atties and cartos. Wonder if I screwed up on juices too.......geez

don't be so hard on your self! Almost everyone here has spent an arm and a leg on the wrong or useless gear. Its part of the learning curve unfortunatly. Just think of it this way... Your qwite a bit ahead of many by starting out with a REO. Many of us spent countless dollars on devices before the REO.

Well while I'm at it I'll admit another screw up........somehow I ended up with 2 dual coil 510 1.5±0.2 cartos

The dual coil carto is not a bad thing, you can vape those on a Reo, to be sure I just tried one, the same as you have listed...not to darn shabby, just make sure you fill/prime it up with juice before ever putting it on a Reo....

is that just with the duel coil karma? reason i sak is my wife uses lr cartos but she has a box of duel coil 1.5 i grabbed her and i was gonna give her one to try out. with the lr she just does a short pull or 2 while pressing the bottle, is the duel a different beast? i only use attys so i dont know.

This has been worked out. I am getting her some cartomizers to replace the atty's which she will send to me.
I was gonna post this but I wasn't sure if this was acceptable because it didn't go through a classified or trade thread. Karen is a very nice wonderful lady that is a great benefit to this community. She helped me get things running in beginning when I got so frustrated. She is so calm even when us newbie reo owners can be in a state of panic.
