An IO6 and sleeve.
I did find it a bear to get the second oring seated, even after lubing it, fortunately I had a tube mod with a really solid top cap.

Where are you guys getting your IO6's? I have never been able to find any standard or LR in stock on the ikenvape site. Is there a thread I can watch to see when they are available? I subscribed to the announcement thread but it hasn't been updated in a while.

I haven't ever tried an ikenvape atty not even a regular 510 :(
Thanks,
J

Got my Siam tip and sleeve for i06 today! Even and following the included instructions, it took some work to get it on but it's nice and snug now and I'm loving it. The 2nd o-ring gave me the most trouble and pushing it on resulted some o-ring shavings sliced off by the io6. I've had the io6 2.5ohm for a couple weeks now.

I've removed mine a handful of times and haven't had any oring shavings. What I do is place a drop of juice in the drip tip between the two orings, place it on the io6, and give it a fast clockwise turn ~180º to pass the first oring, and then another 180º spin to pass the second oring. YMMV, but this should help.

It came packaged with clear instructions to do just that but it was very tight and it shaved off parts of the o-rings as if it was too thick. Once I got it on and cleaned out the rubber pieces, the o-rings look fine. They go all the way around and look undamaged. It's still snug but it's fine and I'm very happy with it.

The Siam sleeve however worked right onto the same atty with a little juice lube. No elbow grease required. Popped a ming style drip tip onto that bad boy and I'm very happy with that as well!

I am all over these driptips! There are what my Reo has been waiting for all this while :D



The store is still not online for purchase I think, there isnt any add to cart button anywhere on the products.
OOPS Sorry my bad.

If your in dire straights until it's up and running you can do like I did and pick them up from https://www.jrcustomturning.com/

I haven't used a Reo in a long time but I want a VV Reo really bad.

You and me both buddy. Bottom feeding paired with Isaac's fantastic io6 is just too good to pass up. Not sure if I can wait the month+ for VV, I might make the dive for the standard. The kick is a great idea though for your already owned Reo. Otherwise PM me because I need one :D

I've been using it on my VV bottom feeder but I absolutely hate the catch cup on it. It holds literally 2-3 drops of juice so if I over-squeeze, it's a mess.

I like the idea and looks of these metal drip tips. But when I have an 'all metal' connection from the atty to my lips, it gets too warm/hot. My lips actually get a chapped / dried out spot. This is why I like the Shiloette tips or a Delrin tip in the IO6DCA (that I'm lucky to have gotten from Isaac). Anyone else notice this? Or do I just vape too hard, too much?
