Milled catch cups and oversized atomizers

and don't be afraid to crank it a bit. I typically give mine one full turn past the point where you are now.

EDIT: Take the top cap off before cranking it on if you ever want to get the cap off again

Well I cranked it onto an old ego first. The insulation around the center pin needed worked in I believe. I put a little thicker oring than came with the rm on and everything seems good now. About to coil, fill and try this bad boy out.

I don't even use an oring....no leaks here

weird. My two, I milled right down flush with the 510 rim and they seat great. The RM2s do vary, however, as to how much +post sticks out the bottom of them.

Total aside, but I love my REO fam and hope one of you sick geniuses could weigh in?

I just watched a couple of Todds reviews with some nice little "outside air control" rings.

I took a metal file and thinned the bottom post a bit. It fits flush now with no leakage.

Sitting here, just recoiled my two reo's one milled Grand and one 2.1, the later has a modded a6 atomizer and the grand has a modded nimbus replica (3 air holes stock) did the same builds on both, 2mm ekowool, 28g kanthal 3/4 wraps. The mini got that smooth sweet vape I want and the grand is almost to harsh. Both coils are positioned close to the holes. Can't really figure it out. I use the same nimbus replica (unmodded) as a dripper and it's great. So yeah can't really figure it out.

I've thought about selling my AFC cap because I'm having mixed results with dual coils and optimal flavor… lots of vapor but single coil Cyclone or RM2 is just more my speed with b/f's… better flavor.
Sticking around to see what folks here come up with for doubles…

So far the best flavor dual coil atomizers I've had are the Kraken (genesis) and the ORigen dripper… got to be something in the respective designs, or something i'm not doing with the Cyclone (stock b/f)

On another note:
Regarding feeding when the b/f juice bottle gets down to 1/3 full… i have some concerns … wow dry hits on sub ohms can be devasting… choke. It would be nice to see a clear cap dripper get the b/f treatment. Then you can see if there's enough juice on the wick/coil

I was considering milling m reo down to run the AFC cap on my cyclone, but have found my sweet spot vape. Really the best compromise in flavor, vapor and throat hit. 1/16 air hole, 8 wraps of triple twisted 30g Kanthal on a 1/16 drill bit micro coil. I like warm to hot vapes since I vape tobacco juices. The resistance is .7 and vapor production is insane.

Tadaaaa! Silver vein grand with a milled cup and unmilled reo. Button cover number two is a trumpet valve cap, silver and mother of pearl, new experiment. I still need to drill a button to accept it, but I like how it looks on there. Waiting on a Helios to mod for it.

You guys were so right. My family of Reos doubled today, and this is on the way to make it three! I can't stop!

 

[custom-classic]

Very nice!!!

 

[Rmcgloth]

Notice on the site today, the new LP ( low profile) grand. The mod master has heard you! Thanks for giving us options, Rob!

Milled grand with nimbus that I converted to bf and torched. Then I torched my mad modz piston dt to match my button!

I like it!

I may run into some serious leaking since my nimbus is drilled out to 9/64"

Wow first time I've seen someone go over 1/8. I wonder how big the Cyclone AFC is with both slots wide open?

I'm trying to figure that out right now. We'll actually which one has bigger clouds with similar builds. Leaning towards the nimbus and I'm hesitant to torch the Cyclone.

But to answer your question I think the slots in the Cyclone are around 1/8".

Does anyone know what grade of block aluminum the REO Grand is made of?

I'm thinking of milling my Grand's to make room for the AFC Cyclone. I have access to a private machine shop and an experienced machinist (My dad) and I'm trying to get an idea of what material we're dealing with. It could make a difference in what tooling we decide to go with.

BTW that Nimbus is really sweet looking!

What I have heard is airplane grade.

 

[X-Puppy]

That's was my guess too but there are a lot of different grades. Some harder than others.
