I have no doubt it is the best way to use a Reomizer, but your first statement is flat out wrong. People need to understand the limits of the batteries they use, especially if they're diving into sub-Ω territory.

I'm guessing that 2 wheeler may be refering to the Reo Yes it can handle it But you are correct Libertaria the batts are an issue also an issue is the Reo is designed around the AW IMR batts and works best with them
Some AW may have been Panasonics - but Panasonic doesn't (at least officially and right now) offer an IMR battery at all - Panasonics usually have various proprietary chemistries tailored to the task. Most of them are considered "safer chemistry" hybrid cells. The current process for Panasonics is actually called "NNP", you can find info and data sheets here: https://industrial.panasonic.com/www-cgi/jvcr21pz.cgi?E+BA+3+ACA4001+4++WW
The manufacturers don't use the same denominations internally that we use - for them the cells are made for a specific purpose (power tools, e-mobility, tooth brushes/razors, laptops). The AW IMR 1600, Samsung 20R, some other cells are specifically for power tools - our max 10A don't bother them. Panasonic ..CH, ..PD are made for e-mobility, 10A permanent is about as high as they can go, which is perfect for regulated mods.
Anything higher than, guessing here, maybe 2800 mAh today are laptop batteries for long, slow discharges, often rated at or below 6A.
The closer you bring a cell to it's maximum, the higher its internal loss will be, the warmer it will become, the more vdrop you get.

No worries Nate...we've been going round and round about batteries since the beginning.
We have a ridiculous number of battery discussions in this sub-forum...but I've only put a select few in the index. Perhaps I should add this one as well.

My apologies then. I haven't spent any time (until now) in this particular sub-forum.
Carry on...
Muwahaha... famous last words. Just go ahead and start saying your goodbyes now
Hey hey hey, I have been a REOnaut for almost 3 years and I love my genesis atomizers to death.
Only problem is they suck for out and about because they leak.
If you can't make a genesis atomizer vape as good or better than a silica or cotton based atty your doing something wrong IMHO
In fact with 6 REOs sitting here only 2 are in use at this time but I have 3 genesis going along with 2 Kayfun lites (and a 3'rd kayfun on the way) Fantastic device.
REOs were the only thing that vaped fantastic back when I started with them in 2010 but other things have caught up and can vape .... dare I say better ......... But ......
REO is still way out in #1 for convenience and portability (small size - big power - no leaks) so if I had to go back to just one device it would certainly be a REO (Woodvil)

I know I've read this before and agree that the 1600 mAh are a better choice than the 2000 mAh but question ??
Isn't there a formula of X by the mAh and deviding by 1000 or something like that ???
If so how can the 1600 have a higer amp limit than the 2000 mAh ..... I must be missing some other number thats larger with the 1600 I guess ????
Anyone understand what I'm talking about or know the formula ?
Multiply the C rating by the amp hour rating of the battery.
For example:
18650 1600 mAh with a 15C rating
1.6 * 15 = 24 A

HAHA Tim, I know, I was just messin.. sorta my way of sayin "I predict you'll love it more than any other setup you've used before"
I realize that plenty of folks actually do still use genny's and whatnot even after using a REO with an RM2 up top. I don't understand WHY they do but I know it happens, lol
I actually gave the Terminator C another go last night. Rolled up a nice little 1ohm micro and wicked it with cotton. Juice delivery is fine but flavor is almost non existent. I think it's time to sell the Term C
I haven't used a genny's since getting my first REO, 4 weeks ago today, but I don't have any fancy ones. I'm hardly motivated to set up an AGA.
Also, I am still using my IGO-L and W for flavor test dripping
