Best RM2 build for NT juices?

[empteeteacup]

Hey guys. Been playing around a bit with the new Reo, but it seems that I can't build myself a coil and wick that gives me what I'm looking for. Seems like I'm getting good flavour for the first one or two hits and then just vanilla and sweetness on the subsequent hits.

What do you Reo experts think is the best build for NT juices? I have 30g 28g and 26g kanthal available and have been using Koh Gen Do for wicking.

Granted I have zero experience with an RM2. I know someone on the Reo side says he uses 28g twisted coils.
I always get better flavor from twisted builds.

I'm with dbrandt, I like low ohms, but no space for dual coils.
I have twisted 28g in there, 5 or 6 wraps (I forget), comes out around .5 ohms.

Too though, play around with where your coil lines up with the airflow, how high/low the coil is, distance from posts.

I'd post a pic, but mines a crusty NET mess atm.

You might get better help in the NT approved device thread. That's what it's there for [emoji4]
Btw. I use twisted wire at around .4 ohm for the Wakonda.

How do you guys twist your wire? By hand?

I love the RM2 I use 28g 10 wraps on a 1.6mm micro screwdriver. Meters about 1.3 ohms. The lowest I went was 8 wraps at 1.1 ohms. Thats where I liked it.

I hope this works on posting the youtube vid on how I twist my wire MTteecup. If not, you can follow the link. It is very easy and you will get good results...well, I do.

YEAH!!!! It worked.

DBrandt01 put together a nice easy way to do twisted:

Nevermind Dabucs beat me to it haha. I never use a drill when building coils. No need to honestly

haha got ya covered

Thanks guys. I'll try the twisted when I get home today.

For what it's worth, I don't like wicking my RM2 with KGD. I prefer rayon. Better flavor.

I've watched this video several times and this time is the first time I've seen Danny's lady's foot stretched across the couch! Lol

Haha, well it was the only way I could record a video with her in there She wanted to be comfortable and play my Nintendo 64.

Hey, she did great!! I would have been talking and asking questions! So cool!!

In that case I wish you could see the first three attempts of the video
It was a foot in my face, trying to make me laugh or cursing at the game haha. I went through a good bit of kanthal doing this video. The wine glass on the table should be a big hint on that

That would have been me as well! I don't want to be on camera but I love to mess with others while they are on camera. Thanks for taking the time to make the video though. I've never did/done a sub ohm coil on my Reo. 1.2 works just fine for me.

You're welcome for making it. Figured if I can help one person (before I ever knew it'd get as popular as it has within Reoville) it'd be worth it.
This pretty much sums us up haha

I experience this as well with Rayon (Cellucotton). I'm starting to prefer it over anything else. Just can't help it. It is what it is.
