I'm a Reovillian now! Got a LP/SL Grand from Rob 2 days ago. Also got the Reomizer 6. Started with SXMXdrifters 0.5ohm build, a little too cool for me. So I built a couple of 24g Nichrome 8 wraps. Getting 0.2ohms. It's a nice warm
vape. Noticing my thumb is sore, what's up with that !
She's a beauty. Congrats Greener but beware, this is how it starts... with the first. I have reo #6 on the way but tend to give one away every year (I should control that impulse), so really I'll just have #4. As has been stated, the bottle will soften and the thumb will toughen. You can try squonking part time with you're middle finger, sorta give your thumb a break.
Welcome to Reoville.
Congrats and welcome. I hear you on the occasional sore thumb. I wash my hands so much that in winter months they crack and twice it has happened to my squonk thumb.
Russ, I have the same problem in winter months, my thumbs even crack at the corners of my thumbnails... makes squonking a pain until I found this:
O'keefe's Hand Cream
If you haven't tried it, you can thank me later.
Also a trick I found if you also get those splits at the corners of your thumbnails: super glue. Just a smear, glues, seals and protects it while letting it heal up.
We squonkers have to take good care of our hands.
cheers
