How to adjust positive post in REO or RM2?

[KY_Rob]

Messin around with this pretty new REO Grand, and I can't get it to fire for the life of me.

18650 AW IMR is showing 4.1v

Coil is sitting at a stable 1.17 ohms

I've got continuity in the Grand itself, and the RM2.

Only thing left if positive post contact.

I've screwed the RM2 as tight as I dare, but alas the pretty mod & coil, they mock me...

Did you turn the fire button counter clockwise to put the safety off?

 

[KY_Rob]

Yes indeed. Just tried the RM2 on another mod, and it works fine...

 

[KY_Rob]

Just got it to fire, but now my juice hole is 180deg off...stay tuned, I'll conquer this beast!

Did you by chance get the Low Profile RM2?? The RM2 that fits down in the drip well of the Reo has a smaller brass band around the bottom of the atty.....

Two thing to look at here. The two on the left are LP RM2s and the one on the right is a regular. Also the left center pin is in to far, right is out to far and the middle is just right.

Nope, looks right. It's firing like a champ now (I think my o-ring got misaligned). Still 180 deg off, but I can live with that for the moment

When I do that, I hold my pinky out when I vape. It makes it fancier.

I just took a look at mine and mine sits flush with the threading on the rm2. How do i adjust it so it looks like your middle one?

Small flathead and back it out just a tiny bit.

Would it change anything performance wise?

Not that I know of. I did it on one...I do hope I am not giving crap advice!

No it will not negatively impact performance, it's threaded into a plate that is under the ceramic cup. You can see how it goes together in the thread below. Some of the RM2 don't have screw driver slots. A Rat's tail file should work.

Ya im not seeing a screw driver slot, limited to the tools I have because im stuck in korea haha. So if it doesn't impact performance positively or negatively I can just leave it flush the way it is i suppose?

If you're not getting a good contact it would be better to back it out a bit. assuming you're deployed, the machine shop will have a rat tail file. It a round file for metal that tapers on the end so it will go into to the hole and then grab. Even the square handle end of most files would work.

I actually am having issues with contact, it's not been performing as well as it used to for some odd reason. I cleaned it, scuffed it, noaloxed it. My itazte is throwing out more vapor than the reo lately. Find it odd

you might also need to file the spring and the battery contacts as any of these points could have oxidation.

I just did that, in the process I decided to check one of my screws.. bam it was loose. Case closed
