RM2 and original Grand

[FisherPal]

As I am still trying to wrap my head around this Reomizer stuff, can someone set me straight on something please? I have my original Reo Grand with the original spring, contact. Ordered a repair kit but that was right before the new ones with the upgraded goodies came out. So ... is it okay to use the Reomizer on a 'stock' Grand or should it have the upgraded contact and spring to really work properly?

It will work just fine with the original contacts as long as you stay above 0.5 ohms. The old springs will sag at low sub-ohm. The new contacts have less voltage drop so they hit harder at any given resistance and will also support low sub-ohm vaping.

It is just fine to use on a "stock" grand unless you are planning to go very low sub ohm.

It'll work fine if, as Doogie said, you don't go too far under 1 ohm. The sub-ohm kit-equipped grand is just icing on the cake.

Thanks everyone for your responses. As to this point my comfortable vaping range is at 1.5 ohms and somewhere around there is where I want to hang out, it's good to know that it will be no problem!

0.5Ω will cause sagging, just not as quickly. You're better off above 0.7Ω or so. But as you said, you're comfortable around 1.5Ω, which is great for an original stock user.

In the future, however, when you have a chance, I'd still recommend purchasing the new kit. It will increase your battery life, and with resistance that high it will require little to no maintenance. Your old stock kit will require occasional cleaning and buffing.

Good luck.

I'm glad zmauls popped in with the battery life part, otherwise I would have mentioned it. GJ you!

I'd still get the upgraded contacts, the device just hits harder in general and your battery will last longer.
