lol well at least I didn't do that.............. yet lol and hopefully won't.
Very nice!!!!!
A 2.6Ω coil ought to heat up on a Reo by Thursday! Maybe make one in the 1.5-1.6Ω range to start?

well poop was afraid of that......but why come it heated up quick on the vw when I knocked the watts down to where the v's were about 4.2? Thought I had that covered.
What rba are you building on? Is it an rm2?

What gauge wire are you using? Wire gauge will help determine ohms, how many wraps and heat up time.
Maybe try some 28 or 29 gauge wire, if your shooting for 1+ ohm coil maybe try like 10/11 wraps of 28 around a 1/16th bit. I usually sub ohm and shoot for around .5 ohms, which is usually 5/6 wraps of 28g around 1/16 or 5/64, whichever floats my boat.

newp.......it's a marquis clone. Admittedly my coils still kinda stink right now.... was shooting for about 1.8 came out about 2.6 
I don't have good tools and was trying to do it in too dark a room. but it fired fine on the hana clone when I knocked the watts down to where the Volts were firing at 4.2 about 7. little bit watts. I can try to get a lower ohm one tomorrow when I can see better. just don't understand if it was firing on one at .......ohhhhhhhh yanno what.....maybe cuz even a fresh batt wasn't coming near 4.2 under load???

If it's not firing at all - then make sure your atty is at least making contact with your Reo. You will at least hear it hiss or see the coil glow, if you take the topcap off.
It will take a second to heat up is all. [The heat up by Thursday was a joke!] But still 2.6 IS on the high side.
Before all the sub-ohm stuff - cartos were rated low, medium and high resistance - and high was about 2.4Ω

y'all haven't met the goober/hoople side of me yet.......Hi I'm Deb the ding dong still luv me??? Anyone ever been kicked outta reoville for being too much of a hoople???? (there's always a first)
No worries, we're all here to help...sometimes we help even the most challenged hooples as Rob likes to call them. Let's just take this one step at a time, baby steps here.

Not that i know of.
It's really not that kind of place and besides, there's enough people with expertise here to enable complete novices to get the hang of it. There are a few black sheep of course..

So you still went with the Marquis? Like I mentioned before, that is probably the worst RDA for a beginner... I am sure with the helpful people around here, you will get it built to what you need. I would tend to agree with Trunker, in that it might not be making a connection in your 510 connection...
Maybe she just needs to adjust that 510 center pin up a little on that new LP grand

yeah.....I'm thinking also not making a connection......in my first post about it, I said that when I went to put the top cap back on..... it was hard to get on, and I'm wondering if I mashed it too hard, and somehow pushed the pin down on the reo does that make sense?
That center pin isn't gonna move, just insert the Allen key in the center and adjust it maybe a quarter turn to the right(clockwise). It should of came with a small black Allen key in the plastic bag with the spare bottle and noalox.

yeah. Not that I wasn't considering what y'all were saying. But I felt like I kinda had to get it since CH had kinda gone outta his way with patience for me. Plus, I know that I can learn to build on it. Yeah an RM2 would likely have been easier, but I knew I could get a build done on it. Will be easier once I get a coil jig, so they aren't so wonky. But I did get a coild built and on there, and it was firing, and I can learn to do it better. I knew it would be easier later to get an RM2 if the marquis clone didn't work, but harder later to get the clone.
