Reomizer Physical Comparison Chart! RM2, RM3, RM4, RM5

[BockinBboy]

Hey guys!

I wasn't sure if this has been done before, but I mostly did this for myself and figured I might as well share it. The questions regarding the differences come up a lot, and it is a little difficult to decipher on the site when you are new to REOs. Please do let me know if I made a mistake somewhere, as I gathered this information from quite a few different sources, and did not take these measurements myself, nor have I observed most of these first hand - I only have an RM3 and RM4 at this time.

Also note that the RM6 is on this chart. It is not on the Reo site... yet Most of what I gathered on that is from smiddleton's RM6 review post, and what I know about the Stillare.

Awesome work. Thanks!

Same for me - bookmarked.

Excellent work, Bboy. Well done.

The only little tweak I'd add is that the RM3's air hole with the single coil cap is larger that the two holes in the dual coil cap. Not sure of the larger dimension hole - prolly 1/16" (don't have a micrometer... or a sonic screwdriver for that matter).

Great write up, thanks.

 

[Papa_Lazarou]

BTW, your 'Bboy' reference isn't to this guy is it?

 

[super_X_drifter]

Thanks for all of the positive comments everyone! Glad the chart is useful to others.

Papa, good eye on the RM3, I hadn't heard that before on the air holes, but it definitely makes sense. I only have the dual version and the airholes weren't stock when I got it, so I'm definitely relying on 'outside sources' for that detail!

I'm mobile for the weekend, so I'll have to edit that in when I'm back at the desktop.

...and my Bboy reference just comes from hip hop - basically breakdancer. The Bockin part is short for powerbocking. I led a group in college that involved practice, meets, and performances with both of those activities and the combined name just stuck. =)

Is Rob still offering the RM6?
I didn't see it on the website...

 

[muzichead]

Rob has never offered an RM6... I think it was just wishful thinking on smiddleton's part....

 

[smiddlet68]

Lol.. Send rob a PM
