The CH modded PDA rocks, it's as good as a Cyclone, same concave base, but the pins are more centered then the Cyclone for more wicking options, you can easily dual coil this baby with the pin setup


Dual coil on that PDA? Sounds hot! I'm glad you love it! As I said before I can get Pda's just let me know that you want one or more

Haha it's too much of a pain for me to build dual. Running it at 0.9 using 26 gauge.

The other thing is, the way the veritas is built, you're always always gonna have longer than usual leads which inevitably bumps up your resistance. That's kinda a con I guess.

But man. I frigging love this atty.

The other awesome thing I love, but probably not intended by Tom is this

The drain hole is actually quite a bit higher off the base than Tom usually does.

BUT. This atty is so incredibly leak proof it doesn't matter. IN FACT, with the left over juice, I find myself squonking once every 10 to 15 drags.

Haha in fact, I've returned my clt to my copper REO, and im just vaping the veritas on my ipv 100W. Still going on and on.

Did I mention I frigging love the veritas? Oh yes. Yes I do

I've got a regular Veritas and it's been on my 100 watt A LOT, it's great! I have dual coils at about .4, running at about 40 watts, It's awesome. The flavor is just off the charts, it's my favorite RDA at the moment. I was totally bummed when I couldn't get one this week. The only problem I've had is the peek nut, I'll be needing some.

As far as I am aware I will be the first to bf the hobo. It's going to be difficult but not as bad as the Veritas. I'm not doing send in Hobos or Veritas. If you want to send in either you will have to coordinate it with a run. These things take way too long to do them one by one.

Hopefully I will be able to tell you in a few hours. My weekend starts in T minus 2 hours and counting.

Got both Veritas build. One is dual 4/5 wraps of 26ga on a 5/64 at 0.28ohms. The other is 5/6 wrapsof 26ga on 7/64 at 0.4ohms.

Flavor is good. Love that they don't leak when laid down. Draw is a little tighter than I'm used to but that may be my coil/wick position.

How Shizz. What rda and air hole do you normally vape at.

I find many atties to be tight. But the veritas with a 3.5mm massive hole? o_O

True but the 3.5 mm is reduced by the center screw and it's still only one hole for 2 coils. I find the Veritas to be my tightest draw of my 22s. I do love it though.

So here we are now on day #5 of my order bouncing around Chicago. I feel like I live in Canada or Greece at this moment!!! I can't even begin to explain the bad taste I have for USPS right now. I received an order I placed on Tuesday this morning and the one that was shipped a week ago is in limbo still...

Speaking of usps issues... i love in Schaumburg IL with a zip of 60173. Have a shipment due today that was sent to a neighboring town post office, Roselle il 60172. Now this is not my typical post office for deliveries... substantially farther away than the one about 2 miles down the road from me.

Oh how pathetic the sorting is at the elk grove village sorting facility.

All mine are filtered through Forest Park and that is where all the magic happens... My local post office is just as confused by this as well after showing them recepts of other packages I have received, being ordered and shipped after this one...

On on the way out to drill these will be ready tonight or tomorrow. I will still order the rings and tips for them but I will ship them as they come in. This will also give you a chance to see if you actually still want the extras. For anyone that does not want Unicorn milk I have 1 bottle of Cuttwood Sugar Bear in 18mg lowest number on the list gets the first choice. There should be a few extras for late additions. There will be a total of eleven (11) Hobos up for grabs so counting the one back out I should have three(3) up for grabs that aren't spoken for. If those go and you are still interested place your name on the list and maybe you will get lucky but the lowest number on the list takes priority.

Thank you Chowderhead72 for the insight on new Reo 510 connectors and tips on getting my new BF Odin to make a connection. As you can see, she's firing fine and the flavor is excellent. Best deal on a BF atty by far.

How does the Odin fit on the Reo anyway. I see it has a long protruding pin and I don't have an LP yet.

I have 4 Reos 3 of which are LPs, and 3 Odins. The 3 Odins will work on all my other mods and I have quite a few. BUT they will not each fire on all three reos. They will work on 1 or 2 but not all three. I replaced one 510 that broke (not because of the Odin the end just snapped off changing fluid) with one I ordered from Rob at reo but at $5.00 a pop ($25.00 in the rebuild kit) with shipping they are not cheap. So the problem lies with the 510 in the Reos and when and if Rob gets some different 510 pins in and the price goes down you will will have to work on the 510 if it doesn't fire. That is what I have determined anyway. I really like the Odins, for some they may require just a little tweeking.

The pins on the Odin's are really no different than any other atty on the market right now with the exception of the Magma. It has a really long pin in it.

As to the 510 problem, there have been a few issues as of late with them not being up to par. I purchased 2 Odin's from Tom and they both would thread on to my older grand and all my other devices sitting here collecting dust, but neither would thread onto my newer Silver Vein grand that I purchased a few months ago. They would only thread half way into the connector. I knew there was a problem with the 510 at that point. I purchased a bottom tap and cleaned up the threads in my 510 connector on the Silver Vein and now they both thread on very well.

***For those not familiar with tooling and fasteners in general, do not try this at home. Your device might be making a trip to the spa to be fixed by Rob, if you don't know exactly what you're doing...
