Mechanical reos will be seeing some upgrades

[siklilmonkey]

Hello all, kinda new to reos, bought mine a few months ago but, being a .2 ohm sub ohm'r, it didnt really do it for me.. fastforward to today, I cant put this thing down long enough to order another. lol, but im gonna, think i need a LP to go with my grand.

Question: I bought a brass button with my sub ohm kit, and, well I cant figure out how to put it on, anyone know how? It slips right on, but doesnt fit snug enough to lock, unlock the button. I still have it in original package with the little gold string I have no idea what thats for.

Any help would be appreciated, looked on youtube but my search came up with nothing and nothing on the reos site.

Lay the piece of string over the button and push the button cover down over it. You can then cut the excess string and/or burn it with a lighter like I did.

Ok so I put the new kit in it finally got here mail to Canada sucks the hind teet. any ways same atty ohms and got over a .1 volt increase after running through 3 mlx of juice not bad eh and less loss of heat at the end doesn't take much .1 volt is a lot at that point

I honestly did not think that the Grand could get any better.. What a difference! Outright perfection with a 26 gauge micro @ 0.6. Love the shortened throw as well! Also, as Super X and a couple of others have mentioned, sanding off the paint beneath the spring will yield even more efficiency and increased output. She hits like an absolute champ!

Since getting my "Ninja" green Grand last Friday, I've been using VTC5's and like the longer run time.

But what I really like is How my carpet matches my drapes!!! LOL

The VTC5 is a darned good battery. It hits hard and has stamina.
Went through 6 ml of juice, on a .39 OHM. Started around 8:00 in the morning 3.78V under load and at 7:00 at night
I was at around 3.44V under load.

My old Sony Hit hot for around an hour or two then dropped off the planet.

The other battery to consider is the Panasonic NCR 18650PD doesn't hit as hard off the charger, but has an incredible stamina.

I'm tempted to buy a new one [Old ones are too beat up] to see if it reacts the same way on my REO as it did on my other bottom feeder. It would start at 3.4V under load and end at 3.2v around 14 hours later.

Had to adjust my Coils to compensate for the lower Battery V-Drop on the VTC-5 went from .29 to around .39 from a 3-2 wrap up to 4-3 wrap.

These kits are absolutely the best thing ever. Running a .4 ohm 24g micro with cotton and the new kit, my stripped green Grand is performing like never before. It's absolutely nuts. Batteries lasting longer, RM2 hitting 100% perfect. Thanks for putting these together Rob.

I ended up having to order new springs, I bought my latest when he ran out of springs so it had the old style with all other parts updated. Made a mean build and collapsed the spring halfway. Lol.

I am loving these contacts. .3 ohm coil with my 24mg bavarian cream cheesecake. I have tempted a friend to come on over. Hopefully he orders a reo soon.

I agree with and fully support the above statement.

Does the mini rebuild kit work with the original mini 14500? I don't want to subohm on it, but I'd love to extend the battery life and performance (and to retire the file!).

 

[MXBNW]

Yep, it will work. I checked with Rob a week or so ago to makes sure my self.

24mg! OMG!!

I had to drop from 8mg to 4mg when I got the new kit. Should I turn in my "man card"?

 

[jifjifjif]

I went from 12mg to 6mg when I installed my subohm kit.

 

[patrao_n]

No need to turn in the mancard lol. When I first started vaping, I was using 36mg in a vivi nova with a packet of snus under my lip. I really like my nicotine.

Sure would seem so, holy hell that's a lot of nicotine. You're the only other person I know that could do that hehe. Have a buddy I met in my army days that would pack 2 dips (bottom and top lip) and still smoke a cig! Crazy stuff, I'll sit at my 6mg margin... Can't hang like you hehe

My contacts arrived just in time for my birthday. Rebuilt my Reo and it now fires like a champ. It never performed this good!

Just for kicks, here's a photo of what remained of my old positive contact. Filing to keep it clean wore it down to a stump. I was lucky I was still making contact at all.

I would say you were do for a new positive contact .
