Couple of Reo/Reomizer qestions

[vang0gh]

I have a couple of questions for the long term Reo/Reomizer users out there. First, how low do you take your battery before swapping out to a fresh one? With this 1 ohm micro coil I’m rocking, I seem to get down to about 3.4v before the vape seems too weak. Second, how long do you tend to get out of a cotton wick? I’m on day two with my current wick and it still seems to taste fine to me. I kind of thought I’d be re-wicking on a daily bases.

When home, I swap out the battery when the bottle is half-full. Nothing scientific.

I use silica -- I swap out once per week. I can't speak for cotton.

 

[supertrunker]

Cotton only lasted me for a day but then i can go through 2 bottles of liquid a day in my Reo and it clogs coils pretty fast. The good thing is you can rewick the cotton in little time after dry-burning the coils to clean them.

I don't like to run my batteries much under 3.6v. I run 1Ω coils too.

Switch batteries when the performance drops off. For me usually around 3.7.

Durability of your wick will depend on your juice. With a clean, clear juice, two days, gunkier juices, less.

These things are entirely subjective so do what gives you the best vape.

^^^ What he said My cotton wicks with NET juices are swapped everyday and other juices every other day.I like to fiddle though

 

[super_X_drifter]

My cotton wicks stay in my coils until I pull and replace them about once a week.

I also try to remember to replace the batteries in all three of my active REOs every day.

thank you, sir. moments ago, i was getting frustrated re-wicking a coil, read this, realized i didn't dry-burn. after that it was a piece of cake.

that was one nasty, gunky coil

I too forgot to dry-burn my coil yesterday when installing a new wick. Vaped ok afterwards but it bugged me, ya know?
Couldn't bear it after a half-hour, so I trashed the new wick and did a triple dry-burn before installing the newer wick. Oooh, it felt so good.

The good part about cotton is its dirt cheap and making a new wick is literally a 90 second adventure. Pull out old one, burn the coil, feed it though cut it and squonk!

I seen this question so many times I started checking my batteries when I changed them. I usually change them when I feel I'm having to take longer pulls to get the same vapor. The last 3 battery changes have all been in the 3.7 to 3.8 range. As for wick I change it every other day but that's only because they seem to be guncked (scientific term right there! lol) up to much.

I change them when I feel the vape needs a longer drag to get the same result.

The shallower the depth of discharge before recharging, and the less time the battery sits at < 100% charge, the greater its life. I recharge any battery used that day every night. With only one Grand, that was down to 3.6-3.7V when the bottle was used up in 16 hours. With two Grands, the 2000 mAH in the work/commute tumbled is used about 9 hours (0.8Ω), and the 1600 mAH in the home powdercoat about 7 hours (0.5Ω), both between 3.8 - 3.9V when pulled. I rotate three batteries per Grand and I'm probably not the only one with a multimeter next to my family room chair.

Cotton wick in my daily drivers usually doesn't get changed here until performance drops off. With my roughly 2%, lightly flavored DIY 50/50 24 mg, that's been about a week so far. With heavier juice, it would probably be more frequent, but I've yet to vape enough of that in one RM2 to see.

Batts never make it much below 3.7 for me at 1.2 ohms. If I'm out sometimes I get to 3.5x and its pretty weak IMO.

 

[hubseven]

Reo Grand- change 18650 batt at 3ml, could go 3 days on cotton wicks but I change out after 2 days.

I just swapped my wick after three days...I had somehoe burned the center out of the cotton. I obviously need practice at making a more uniform wick. Since a coil and wick costs like two pennies...I am thinking of making a bunch and swapping them daily.

I change batteries at half a bottle of juice when I am at home. Going out I don't change the battery.

So, are you thinkingaboutit? LOL, I read your post a couple times reloading this thread. Couldn't resist!

I am surprised your location does not say NJ. But, I guess you would have to use fuggetboutit then.
