Hey All! Now that I got my Reo Grand today...I figure I can welcome myself on into the Reo sub-forum!
Feel free to hit me up if you have further multimeter questions...I'm always available. I literally paid $5 shipped for my multimeter off eBay. We're not doing rocket science, so a high-end multimeter isn't really necessary.

Hi basilray! You have always been welcome to welcome yourself here! Glad to see you! The video was well done, btw.
Scottbee recommended this to me as a good alternative if you don't want to break the bank. I've had it for a couple of days and like it so far: Sears: Online department store featuring appliances, tools, fitness equipment and more
Thank you Basilray for the multimeter instructions.... PERFECT! Quick question: Where do you place the red lead on a Cisco 306LR atty? These do not have that hole/thread, just the mesh thingy.... Thanks again, excellent easy to follow instructions for when I receive my $5 multimeter from eBay.
I second the first one from Harbor Freight- That's what I have and it does everything you need it to do...and only $6.99... If you have a HF near you, you don't even have to pay for shipping!Here is a few links to get a multimeter

The 306 atty has the same threaded end as a 510 atty and you place the leads in the exact same spots. The mesh thingie is the bridge that would wick juice from filler material in a cartridge. That's not necessary with a Reo, of course. Just get a LONG drip tip for your 306, squonk, vape.
Thks Mudflap for patiently explaining the thingie and how to meter the 306..... I hate brain farts that I have when it comes to tech stuff.... Thks again

DT830D Digital Multimeter Meter AC DC w/9v battery USA - eBay (item 280591915922 end time Feb-20-11 20:44:09 PST)
Works like a champ for $5.58 and it came with the 9v battery.

thank you for this video. I have a feeling that I just burnt out my first atty EVER. I ordered the $4.95 multimeter on ebay.
QUESTION:: so, with a LR atty, that means you don't have to hit/suck as hard, right?
Because i've been hitting it HARD, just like I would with a 510..........all of the sudden, there was no vape, just juice all over my Reo Mini & I was sad. Had my husband (who knows nothing about smoking, nor ecigs) look at the entire device/battery/etc & he sure enough thinks that I killed the atty. Now i'll be able to test it to be sure.
Thank you again.

Thank you again.
A LR atty burns hotter, and therefore typically goes through juice a bit faster than a regular atty. They typically don't live as long as a regular atty, either. I have had the best luck so far with LR 306's from avidvaper.com (Cisco) and ikenvape.com. Particularly with the Cisco's, it is not unusual for a 306 to last me for a month before it starts performing poorly (and if I'm awake, I'm vapin' - LOL!). Others I tried early on often didn't last more than a few days.
ok, this lr atty was from nhaler and has lasted me just a few days (saw that they had lr attys when i was buying drip tips) so I bought em.
cisco it is then for my lr attys.
Thanks again for the wealth of information!

One other nice thing about the Cisco's is they don't have any nasty primer in them. Just put several drops of liquid in them and let them sit for a few minutes before initial use.
