"O" ring

[danibanani]

Should one be placed between the Cyclone and the Reo? And the RM2 and Reo?

Sorry for the newbie question. I haven't been using one and while cleaning them I thought maybe I should be using them.

Thanks in advance!

I do! 10 char.

Dani, with the RM2, the o-ring is only to assist in positioning the air intake hole. It allows you a degree of snugness without squashing the insulator in your 510 connection (of the REO). If the atty is snug, and the air intake facing fully away from you when you vape, you don't need the o-ring. I would assume it's the same with the Cyclone.

I use one with my Cyclone AFCs. As AP said, it helps with positioning the air hole(s) so you don't damage the 510 connection.

I personally like my air hole facing the button, The o rings help position exactly where I like it and keep it there while protecting the 510 from me over tightening the rba.

I have three different orings that I use but as ancient puffer said it is more for aligning the air hole to where I want it for my vape style. I also feel that if the atty is flush onto the oring it protects the 510 threads in case I knock it over or drop it.

Where did you guys get these o rings? I've got a bunch of spares from attys, but none fit - too small or to big.

REOS Mods
1.0mm x 10
1.5mm x 10

I have also picked up some different size from a local hardware store but the two Rob sells are what I use 99% of the time. I keep a good supply on hand.

I ordered a bunch from Rob when I was buying something else, you can also get them from the hardware store. 1mm x 10mm and 1.5mm x 10mm is what Rob sells.

I use an o ring regardless what atty I'm using; which is usually either an Odin or an RM4. I'll use either a 1mm or a 1.5mm, depending how the atty sits. I run dual coils, so I like the air holes 90 degrees from the fire button.

As mentioned above, you can get these at most hardware stores. I have gotten mine from Ace Hardware. I also bought some .5mm x 10mm as well. I found that the other sizes wouldn't allow me to line up as I wanted...

I think the ones I got from Rob may be too large. Will post pics soon.

When Rob ships a RM2 he includes 1x10 mm, when you say to large do mean diameter or thickness? It should just fit around the outside of the shiny 510 ring with the notches.

You can also use a drip tip o ring around the threads of your RBA, but as Rattler mentioned it does not stabilize the RBA and help protect the 510 in a drop.

It wouldn't vape when I had it on, so it's obviously too large. What size should I get, and are the on Rob's site?

 

[danibanani]

I just noticed that this came in my new Reo package. Does anyone know what it's for?

I mean the thickness. It's too thick.

Dani it looks like what you have in the REO is a 1.5mm but It could just be the camera. If you tightened it down all the way and the oring is keeping the atty from making contact just leave it off for now. If you have a hardware store you might find one that is a bit smaller in thickness until you can get an order from Rob.

that little tube is reducer, you put it in the end of the tube in the bottle. It's to stop auto squonking if your running thin juices in hot environments or change altitudes a lot, like driving up and down mountains all the time.

that's probably a 1mm, you could try a .5 from a hardware store. take it with you and check it against what they have to make sure you get a thinner one.

That is a reducer tube. It is there if you use thin juice (heavy PG). I have only needed them a few times during real hot weather to keep the REO from auto feeding as the juice thinned from the heat.
