I wish I had an LP. I'm gonna have to say perfect choice as your first. I want an LP so I can spend another $100 on a cyclone and cyclops. And I just bought a VVG. I'm holding back with everything I've got not to just order one off the site and that cyclone.

But for squonking I've actually yet to flood the rm2, unlike my era which will leak out the airhole if over-squonked. So I look for when the juice is up past the air hole and let go then. When in doubt, squonk it out.

You are a quick study. Good work on the squonk techniques :)

Back in my early, EARLY, ecf days I stumbled on your micro-coil guide. And I was like wow. He is definitely a vape god. Never even imagined I'd be having conversations with you. So just imagine someone back over half a year ago thinking of you as like a vape-celebrity hahaha. If that doesn't make your day I don't know what would.

Yeah, but now that you see that I'm just a garden variety freak I hope it doesn't change your image of me. I like it better the way you put it :) but in reality I'm just a tool with a popular coil and some AYuss kickin mods :)

But I am flattered. Thanks bro :)

Great to meet you. I'm Russ. I felt the same way when I first came to REOvil. These REOnauts are the real rock stars.

And my boy ^ LT ^ there. He's a genuine OG REOnaut. He did admit that he thought I was real duchebag (he prolly used kinder words) a while ago and since then I really took to him. He's like the slightly older brother I've never had :)

Oh no, my opinion hasn't changed. There are even many here who I don't know what they've done, but seem to be well revered in this community. There's definitely a social structure/hierarchy here. I am glad to take the village idiot roll. (Yes, this gives everyone access to open fire on me if I ever say something wrong. Go wild :p as long as I learn something new)

The ingenuity and I don't know what to call them, carpentry/shop skills? Of some of the people here with all of their fine-tunings of these mods are astounding. If I ever think of an idea, I know just to search and someone else has already done it better than I was thinking lol.

I'm Josh by the way. Or that other name I appointed myself up there :p

Josh, this town ain't big enough for two village idiots bro. Sorry. That's my job :)

That and I dispatch the fat lady for special occasions. You know, she is looking for someone to fill her squonk bottles and rebuild her RM2s - you down bro ?

Seems like a vital task. Community couldn't function without them. Of course I'd have to sterilize those nip... err. Drip tips as well :)

Ok, so the job is yours. Every time I post her to a new REOnaut, i will defer to you to advise on what juice is on tap and what kinda builds you have going.

She could have different flavored juices in each " bottle"

She could have different coil builds and / or wicks in each RBA.

She could mix up any and all variables throughout the day.

The sky is the limit and it's yours to run with.

Here. Let's do a practice run :

Welcome and congrats :)

Here's the fat lady singing a cover of "Wynonas big brown beaver" by Primus.

Sit a spell and have vape, her treat. jkais3r will be dropping by to let you know what she's got on tap :)

Well, it looks she's got herself a treat today. Some pluid just arrived and she's all loaded up with that in a .8 ohm micro-coil. She's all ready to gunk up her new feed tube and that poor cotton wick. Let's hope she doesn't forget to dry burn!

And in her other bottle she's got the coveted unflavored nic. May sound strange at first for some flavor junkies, but after a few puffs on a nice, hot, .55 ohm dual coil, you just may be hooked!

(sorry for the late reply, that whole stacking batteries thing is driving me nuts!)

How'd I do? Am I gonna get some constructive criticism in a pm? Haha.

Yes flavor is top-notch and I'm getting my Squonk on!!! That RM2 is so small but so great! I'm pretty pleased with my elementary micro coil and cotton wick! I can't imagine how much better it will be with practice and time!

LOVE that!

Welcome to the wonderful wacky world of Reoville!

Here are some pics of my 1 ohm 28ga. microcoil before and after with cotton added. I forgot to snap one with cotton saturated but hopefully you all can shed some light on my work!!! Don't mind my 2 bottles of Mother's Milk... I love MILK!






Pauly, your build looks great bro :). Good work. I agree with filthy about the cotton :)

REO Friends I need some help!!!

I have hit the 24hr mark of using my REO/RM2 combo and my throat is trashed! I have vaped for 1.5 years and I've never felt pain or discomfort after any vaping period like I am now.

My current setup is as follows and shown above in pics:

1ohm microcoil with 28ga kanthal
CVS organic cotton small piece with short tails

I don't know if I have dry burned in excess and inhaled or what can be going on. I do notice that my wick runs dry after 2 pulls and 3 full squonks. I am a mouth to lung inhaler.

Do I need to:
- Wrap a higher ohm coil
- Change to 32ga
- Change from cotton to silica

Your help is appreciated!!!

I think maybe you are not letting the juice soak into the wick long enough.

Your 1 ohm coil is very hot and will dry the wick quickly. If you are doing long pulls it will deplete the juice after just a couple.

Make sure you are squonking enough to cover the wick. Wait a few seconds before vaping.

You also might try a coil that is a little higher. I would say a 1.2-1.5. See how that does for you.

Silica tears up my throat. Cotton does not.

Just squonk more brother Pauly. Kinda like ashing a cig. A good 3 second press every hit or two is how I usually roll.

As for the sore throat, dunno. Never got one of those and I run a similar setup.

I do run 12mg nic base in a very high percentage of VG though and vape about 3-5 ml a day.
