So, I decided to take Friday off, and sat down to recoil my RM2s. Why? Well, why not. I declared this a Reo Cleaning Day, which means coil building as well. Off with the 3 coils, 8-wrap some 28awg kanthal, giving approx 1.15-1.2 ohm, screw them on the different Reos, take the cap, screw on and.......Huh? :confused:

One of my three RM2s have the threading 180deg off the two others, which means that the airhole ends up on the opposite side of the coil if I use the cap from the other two Reomizers. Weird. It's not slightly off, it's exactly opposite each other.

I guess that it's pure chance that I haven't noticed this before, since I tend to do coils in a single session. In other words, I've had a 66% chance of getting it wrong, but in the last 5 attempts (I went through a period of coil testing :)) that hasn't happened.

Just thought I'd throw this out there, anyone else come across this? :D
