Confused on the Rm2. Help

[Stacy1]

Rob, have I gotten my hands on one of your Frankenstein mods here?

 

[Stacy1]

Wait.....The LP attys would fit both, right? It's the regular that wouldn't fit the LP?

 

[Stacy1]

Hell I'm confused. I'm glad they both fit both

 

[Rickajho]

It's definitely larger diameter that what is normally on a standard profile catch cup - the milled area barely leaves much of an outer wall left on that one. Yet it's finished on the inside like it should be too. Huh.

Maybe an awkward transitional phase for the 18490 Mini before Rob went to full blown low profile catch cups? (Like when the RM or RM2 was first being offered?)

Ima gonna go look through some of "The history of..." threads to see if I can track this down. Unless Rob pops up and beats me to an answer. (Please...)

It's a collector's item!

 

[Stacy1]

Woohoo. Now I'm feeling special haha. Regardless of what it is supposed to be versus what it is, it's a lil badass and I LOVE IT! I just wonder what all attys I could mount on the mini as it seems it will support regular atty sizes

 

[Stacy1]

Regardless, I just got the Koh gen do cotton pads ordered

Reverse a Regular will fit both and LP normally only works on an LP Reo.

LP Reo on left, regular reo on right

 

[Stacy1]

So the fact that both of mine have turned out to fit both is unusual?

 

[Papa_Lazarou]

Yep - it's unusual for the LP atty (which you have) to fit a non-LP mini. Your mini's catch cup has an unusually large diameter, as Rickajho pointed out.

The thing that's puzzling all of us is that it appears to have come from Rob that way, since a civilian-modded cup would show bare aluminum in the inner walls of the cup.

 

[Stacy1]

Yup. Definitely feeling special now. I knew I loved this mini from the moment I cupped it in my lil hands and it still managed to get lost

Here Robert tells us:

The juice well in the mini 2.1 is larger then the grand and the vv grands well . Its the first mod I have made with rbas in mind

The Mini 2.1 can run the smaller size RBA's like the RM2 just as the Grand can.
