A used and cleaned atty reads 2.1 ohms but will not fire at all on any of my Reos. Connector looks good, etc. Is this just a freak issue since it reads 2.1 ohms? Anything else I can check? I am stumped.

did you pull out the center pin just a tad ? as well as try it on something else, I would try this 1st
I used it on a Reo in the past (only 510 I have). Center pin is fine. Just nothing.
I've had this happen. The center post one the end that screws into the battery should be slightly protruded from the outer ring. Otherwise, when the atomizer is screwed tightly into the battery it won't make center contact. Do this with a straightened paper clip with a tiny hook formed on the end. Stick it into the hole, being careful not to contact the heater coil. Pull it out just a little and try it again. The center post is suspended in a ring of insulating silicone material.
Wiggle your bridge around a bit if the center pin didnt work, if that doesnt work try to push your wire around under the bridge, if your getting an ohm reading your Atty should be working, you know the old saying, jiggle, wiggle, shake, and grove, if that dont make it burn all night then your in trouble and need a new xxxx uhm Atty
