Did mine around the posts with a SS wick and a 4 wrap of 30g for 1.0ohms. I know micro's are all the rage but,I like SS. Haven't found anything that beats it for flavor. The other thing I like about the SS is that when dripping you don't cross flavors as much. You can really get rid of most of the prior flavor's flavor before adding a new one..

Wow. I'd imagine the ceramic cup is great for SS wicks. On the picture above it looks like the SS going around the post (left in the picture) will be touching the cap when you screw it on. Maybe it's just the picture.... I hope you have an extra Hot Spring just in case of a hard short.
I oxidize my wicks very thoroughly. Metered it. The cap may contact it a little but, it freely spins on and off. So maybe not. There's room in there. Have been using it since last night and no heating issues. I did it without a ceramic base as well. Just have to be thorough.
I tried it with my dual coil trident and rushed it. Instant short. That's tricky though and a PITA...

That's a squid I drilled out the center post for my vmod. Works great. Did the same with the trident but, had to use silica until I take the time again to try SS.Just not a fan of silica anymore. Dual coils are dangerous for nicotine intake. Using 12mg and felt like 36mg after 3 draws. I just didn't like the airy draw from 2 intakes.

New post arrangement ought to called the RM3. So, what if want the hole drilled out AND the post shortened - i'll find out Tuesday i suppose when #14 rolls into town!

Hey Eddie
. Good to see you around these parts bro .You got your REO too ! How ya likin it?
I like it. It's very solid. I might get flack. I prefer the ergonomics of the vmod thus far but, the simple repairable reliable design of the REO is great. I don't see how you could ever break this thing. The rounded sides of the vmod and bottle window placement I lean towards a bit. My first thought was a 1990 volvo 740 with the REO. " It's boxy but, safe"
Both methods of squeezing offer their advantages.
The direct feed probably more reliable but,I have the vmod down pat and no need to regrip or look. Just feel and listen. Really need more time with it to really put together a solid opinion.
Overall happy with my purchase. I know I have a all day, virtually unbreakable device and if it does break someway I can fix it myself. Stuff like that is huge.

I was OCD about the posts too until I realized they are like that for a reason. The ends of the coils will be at different heights.
i'm more OCD about the small hole.

Word. Glad to see ya here Eddie
Thanks man. You should try a SS wick set up. I'd be curious of your opinion. To get the bend just roll tight and solid, then flex, then torch the bend and it will hold. Hold with pliers obviously in the desired shape. Then you can oxidize the rest of the wick...3 times and then I do a juice burn off 3 times...
This is true..I was OCD about the posts too until I realized they are like that for a reason. The ends of the coils will be at different heights.

I actually think the uneven post placement is a plus....will allow the coil to sit more even over the squonk hole. Eddie, is that an olive drab Grand? That's what my latest is....I love the color (wasn't sure I would.)
Why yes it is with black wrinkle cover. I like it. Had to change the drip tip. looked like a military issue REO with the black one...
Thanks for getting back to everyone on this so quickly Rob. Happy with the service.
like i told deb, you shouldn't throw me straight lines like that maggie
Yeah, seriously. I didn't know it was gonna be that kind of party.
