Good RBA for LP Grand

[Distroshack]

I'm almost ready to pull the trigger on a second REO, but this time I'm going to get an LP Grand. However, I'm really not sure which rba to get.

I already use a RM2 on my standard Reo Grand, and I have an igo and an a7 as backups. All great but the RM2 is my favourite. But having the ability to run a wider range has thrown me a bit. I could go for a cyclone, the LP RM2, the RM6 for something a bit bigger or.......?

Any recommendations? My favourite non REO rda is the TOBH closely followed by the Magma. I would ideally like to be able to choose between dual or single coil on a single peice of kit.

Hmmm... The "just the facts" info for the Reomizers is here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...hysical-comparison-chart-rm2-rm3-rm4-rm5.html That will give you the info about your build options for the Reomizers.

I guess the big question is what's yer pleasure? Big flavor or big clouds? That, and do you prefer lung hits, or mouth to lung?

Since you like the Tohb and Magma, you can have your cake an eat it too...

Aside from the choices on the Reo site for LP, Chowderhead (ecf supplier) mods a heck of a lot of RDA's for bottom feeding... the Odin is mighty popular.
Fwiw I prefer the Origen b/f version myself.

 

[Distroshack]

Thanks both. I'm more into flavour than clouds and tend to vape mouth to lung. I've seen chowderheads posts and if I lived in the US I'd probably ask him to mod a few atties for me. Postage to and from the UK isn't cheap though

If the RM2 is your favorite, the RM3 would be a natural. Compact with a small footprint same as the RM2, and you can get a dual coil version to expand your horizons. "Something a bit bigger"... the RM4 for dual coil with AFC.

I have several RM2's, an RM3, Atomic (RM4), IGO-S, 2 VA Cyclones, Infinite CLT, ERA and VA Divo clones... and my favorites are the compact RM2's, RM3 and Cyclones. So I've found my niche for flavor and vapor as a lung hitter, don't need or want 22mm atty's on my Reo's.

Others to consider

The Apollo by Leo, interesting post design
The Chalice by Mark Bugs, which is releasing a new version with AFC in a couple of weeks
The Nuppin from Pdib, dual or single coil, smaller deck AFC and a interesting post design that really opens the deck.

I'm waiting on the Apollo to arrive and will order a Chalice as well. I have several Nuppin's and like them much more than the Odin.

So Billie finally got the Apollo project to the for sale stage. I got tired of all the false promises and gave up on it many months ago. My use was not for BF at the time and that niche was been filled by other RDA's. I'm not into 22mm atty's on Reo's or I'd try one out. Almost all of my other By Leo gear was top drawer when I still used it (I only stopped because I stopped using all of my ProVari's, Megalodon, Microstick, etc that it was bought for).

The RM4 is looking favourite at the moment

He's including two center posts, one solid for drippers and the other hollow for Bottom Feed.

FB - I knew it was going to have both, that was planned from near the start of the project. So was other than polished finishes, guess that hasn't happened though (yet). Billie and I were pretty close friends.

You've got the RM2 at one end of the spectrum - small chamber, single coil, tighter draw, great for flavour and M2L drawing - and the RM5 or 6 at the other - large chamber, dual coils, afc, great for vapor and direct lung hits.

For my money, the most cost effective complement to the RM2 is the RM4. It allows single or dual coils, has afc, and covers more range in vaping style (some M2L inhale on it, other go direct lung). It picks up where the RM2 leaves off and extends into the range that the RM5/6 offers.

If you found you liked airy dual (probably subohm) vaping, you can then expand to something like the Odin or Cyclone with afc, but I'd save the money initially.

I have a Veritas, Odin, and Mephisto coming and just got my Nuppin'. I think the incoming ones have a very high standard to meet after the Nuppin'. These are more for the lungers out there.

 

[Distroshack]

OK decision made after lots of reading. I've just ordered a cyclone plus the AFC Cyclops. I picked them up for a reasonable price here in the UK and it looks like I can use the standard cap for single coils and the AFC for low ohm dual coil builds. Also just ordered my second REO

I just really only paid attention since he posted the manual for it. Like Raynman points out it's got a really hard comparison going up against the Nuppin.

OK I'll bite, what's a Nuppin and how can I look at one?

I catfished a mephisto this weekend, and I am liking it for lung hits. The posts are super easy to build on with huge holes, the afc is not leaky, and the deck has a bit of a tapered lip to keep the juice centered. It also has a POM insert so it doesn't get the drip tip nearly as hot as my other 22s.

 

[Marc411]

Thanks Raynman, I've now seen a Nuppin

Thanks Raynman, I sent in an order to try them out (almost ordered 2, but just bought another VA Cyclone/Fusion Cap).

I'm running a bottle of RCH through mine now from Xobe. I can hardly wait to juice it up with some Gorilla Juice. I have a Odin coming but I don't think it can beat out the Nuppin' this sucker rocks!!

I wonder if Supe has tried this, he might have to ditch his Odins.
