Reo Mini Question

[Burnie]

Some of the references above will not fit in the Non LP 2011 OG Mini the OP is asking about. FWIW...

Nuppin' ... LP Reos.

The OG Mini will not accept atty's larger than 13.2mm (a tight fit) unless someone had Rob or somebody else enlarged the drip well, or shaved the deck to LP. IE, my ERA will not fit in my OG Mini, nor will a Cyclone or an IGO-S because they are all much larger than 13.2mm. A Chalice will not fit them either. A standard RM2 (non LP) will fit the OG Mini but looks kind of strange. The Hornet, Mini A7, probably No Name has a bf something that will, and there may be other bf atty's that will.

There were only a few Mini 1.0's in this last run that were not LP. If the well on them is the same size as on the LP version though they too will only accept the same 13.2mm atty's that the OG Mini accepts. On the LP version atty's up to about 15.3mm will not overhang the deck.

The standard Mini 2.1 (non LP) will accept atty's up to 15.2mm.

I just measured and the drip well hole is right at 13mm & the deck is right at 15mm, and looking at the depth of the 510 I would say it is not an LP version. I am thinking this is the very first version of the Reo Mini that was made. Currently I am just using a carto in it, which is what was used back when it was made, but would prefer a rebuild-able rda. Thanks for the input.

wow good to know. I've never seen a 14500, but thought the ERA's were right about the same size as the hornets. Interesting. Even milled down you'd still need a fairly small atty to avoid having issues with the button wouldn't you?

Wow so hornet only probably other then a rm2?

My memory isn't what it used to be, but I seem to recall you need to let Robert know if you order an RM2 for a 14500 mini. I *think* he needs to mill it "special" for the 14500's. You might want to shoot him a PM and see.

Sounds like a smart plan! Rm2 is no slouch and I'm still using mine today after years while still owning newer rbas.

From your picture it is definitely not an LP version. I wasn't around back then, but I have never seen a 2011 OG Mini that was LP (although there could have been some made then??? or modded later). The max atty size my Feb 2011 OG Mini will take is .523"/13.28mm... the Hornet I have on it (called a 13mm atty) is actually .514/13.06mm. This Mini bought used about 6 months ago came with a couple of carto's. I don't like them and at the time the Hornet was the only atty I knew of that would fit it other than a RM2. I got the only BF Hornet IVS had at the time, was $80 shipped. All of my Mini 1.0's are LP and run Chalice Atty's, one of my 2 14500 Woodvil's runs a Chalice II the other a IGO-S most of the time.

Well, a standard RM2 fits my 2011 OG Mini whatever that means. Either they all had this size drip well for that run or someone had this one made larger before it was anodized.

The ERA is 15mm, the Hornet 13mm.

Sorry, I forgot about the low profile thing. I use a nuppin on my mini and it's great but it is a low profile mini. In my opinion, it'd be worth it to have Rob convert the mini to low profile so you can use a nuppin. It makes an excellent stealth vape for out and about

Interesting as I own a lp mini 14500 and a few nuppins and never thought to try. Runing now.

Edit: yes it fits but theres enough over hang so one can't lift the door.. not a big deal. It's doable though and looks about the same as a 22mm atty on a reo grand.

Mine is a mini 2.1 takes an 18500 battery and the nuppin fits perfectly. I've never had a mini 14500 tho

The A7 Mini seems to be the correct size for the Reo Mini V1.0, anyone use one of those?

Anyone???

The rainbow might look good with the purple, and size is right to fit into the drip well.

I got a couple of these in preparation for getting a reo, but then was able to get a marquis. I never did use them, so dunno if they are any good or not, but some folks said they liked em. I don't have anything to measure em with but I bet they'd fit. I expect spydro could chime in. they are really small

on another note, tried to pm you but your inbox is full, if you don't mind, pm me with a way to contact you if it's too full to clean out lol

I have an OG mini that I want to send in for the works. LP, new 510, and guts. Anyone know about how much Rob charges for all that?

Those will fit.

As i recall the full-size A7's were cautioned against because the centre pin could get wobbly if you adjusted it out too far. I have no idea if the minis have the same issue but in any event it was easily solved by either using a fatter o-ring around that pin or making sure the pin was screwed fully in (i.e. clockwise).

A7's are also SS (whereas a RM2 is chrome-plated brass), which may or may not matter to you.

Only site I could find with measurements was FT, which says 14mm, but then it has a lip at the bottom that looks smaller, so don't know

figgered that's what it was

Just slap a rm2 on it and you will prob forget all about other stuff.. though you may want to enlarge the air hole just slightly but try it first. Easy to do by hand though as its brass.

I seem to recall @tj99959 is a fan of the mini A7, swears by them for flavour sampling. based on their enthusiasm I ordered one from FT sku1608300 but haven't used it yet; just measured it and the base is 12.25mm, it's quite tall tho.

I went ahead and ordered an A7 Mini from Kidney Puncher, what the heck, it's not that much $$ and got a couple of other things also.
