Dumb Question??

[RSZ1]

On my tug I use dual micro coils. I looked at the blemish ones they didn't have any available. I would prefer to buy a blem to be honest.

What ohms are you running? Wire gauge? I don't think you will be happy going to an RM2 from a tugboat. RM2 is mainly for single coils, and has a small air hole. The RM4 is an Atomic clone, RM5 is a Zenith clone I believe or might be a Double Cross clone and the RM6 is a Stillare clone.

Blems are hit and miss on the website, best bet for a blem is to PM Redeyedancer.

I use 28g kanthal run around .6 ohms

IMO, the RM2 should be experienced by every new Reo owner. Drill the air hole out, throw a < .6Ω coil in it, and it is more than capable of lung busting. The small chamber and single coil design packs insanely dense flavor, and drinks less juice to boot.

Really, you can run a .6 on an RM2 for an LP Reo Grand?
I did just recently get mine drilled out. Just the next size up. It really helped.

Sure, why not?

I'll agree with this! I still think the rm2 is in my top 2 favs. I love the cyclone but the rm2 is just too easy and the flavor and vapor is great every single time.

So the RM2 is not capable of dual coils? So I would change my build from 28g kanthal to like 22g kanthal on a 5/64 with 5 wraps or so and should put me around .6 give or take. I hate working with 22g kanthal makes my finger sore

 

[Filthy-Beast]

Yes people do run dual coils in it. But because the post are off set, one side has smaller build area, and you'd need to drill a 2nd air hole. However I've seen many builds that stack two coils on the main side in front of the single air hole. You could also run a twisted coil to keep wrap count up while dropping the ohms.

 

[thewomenfolk]

How do you do dual coils in the RM2? Two wires in each hole?

 

[Filthy-Beast]

yes, all four approaches have two wires in both posts

Coils on both side of the post
Stacked coils on one side of the post
dual wire - dual wraps
dual wire twisted coil

 

[thewomenfolk]

Thanks. Can stacked coils (one coil over or under the other coil) be touching each other?

 

[Filthy-Beast]

You don't want them to as that can create a hot spot and might burn the wire. some pics of two way to do it are here http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/582631-dual-coil-rm2-cyclone.html

Thanks FB.

I agree with others that the RM2 is a weapon, but, if you are on a budget, and familiar with the tugboat and like the tugboat, and want your tugboat on a Reo, you could get the one you have modified for bottom feed. If you are good with tools and precision work you can convert it yourself (there are threads on this), or if not, you could check out the thread "Catfish atty mods" here on ECF, Chowderhead mods atties to bottom feed for a reasonable fee. You will definitely need an LP Reo for a tugboat.

We'll I orders a RM2 and a LP Reo Grand today. So I will get to experience it soon

The "LP" RM2, I'm hoping

 

[dirtybirdy]

Yes I did.

 

[dirtybirdy]

Please tell me though the Reo comes with the juice bottle and everything I need to use it because I was under the impression it did so I didn't order any of those.

 

[Evilocity]

If you have an 18650, charger, wire and building tools, all you need is the reo and the atty. I believe you said you had building gear earlier.

 

[Filthy-Beast]

Yes, you get bottle inside and a spare. an extra spring is not a bad idea, it's the fuse in case you have a short.

IF you don't have already you'll need to get batteries, charger, ohm meter, wire, wick

And congrats on your inbound REO
