I just got a Grand and love it. I drilled out the RM2 a bit. In one video, it says to have the air hole pointing up so juice does not leak. Mine is pointing down. I cannot unscrew the 510 connector (a dime would not work and I don't have a screwdriver big enough). I can unscrew the center pin but that does not seem to adjust how far the RM2 screws in. How do you adjust it so your airhole points up?

You cant force your atomizer were you want it . One of my mods my air hole is at 3 o clock the other mod the air hole is at 10 o clock .
Like others have stated you can use a thicker o ring to help adjust the atomizer . Please dont over tighten your atomizer down to tight its hard on your center post gaskets

I will have a adjustable center post in the mods by the end of the year a indestructible one at that I might add

Don't mess with the 510 or center post. To adjust the air holes positioning you'll need to use an o-ring in the catch cup. I use a 10 x 1.5mm to get mine facing the fire button.

An o-ring came with it and I installed it. Is its only function to adjust the height of the threads? I tried it with and without and could not get it where II want it, so I will get some various thickness o-rings to get it right, Can you get them at Home Depot?

Oh SUUUUURRRRREEEE! Just when I thought I had bought my last REO. No worries, though, the joke's on YOU, because after stubbornly sticking with her ego for 3 years, my wife has been using a grand for a week now, and loving it.

I view any excuse to buy a new REO as a plus :)

I dont think this add on will help you but there are lots of new folks who think wrenching there 10 pound atomizer on a mod is proper procedure . It takes a few trips to the spa before some of them get it . Oh so your wife stole your mod not a problem I have couple . She wont be going back to the ego anytime soon

I doubt she will, at this point, she just feels "obligated" to use the ego occasionally while the batteries are still good. That won't last long.

And no worries about the REOs, I have 7 of them, I "guess" I'll let her have one...for now :) Sure makes Christmas and Birthdays and Anniversaries easy, though :)

Yes you can find them at hardware stores home depot will work . I have a 1.5 mm on my site that works great not to thick just right in my opinion
