I'm no expert but is the o-ring on the catch cup seated properly?

 

[nerak]

I've been having an issue with flooding. The catch cup or whatever you call it, the part where the RM2 screws into turns into a lake after awhile. Is there something I am doing wrong? Too much squeezing the bottle? Any direction to solve the problem would be appreciated

It can be the result of too much juice being squonked. If your bottle cap is on snug the juice you squonk should be sucked back down after you stop squonking. Also if you squonk right before you stop vaping any juice in the RM2 can come out into the drip well.

Take off the DT and watch inside the atty when you squonk to help perfect your squonk-fu. Flooding is almost always from oversquoking or pocketing the Reo without vaping the atty close to dry. I try to squonk before the first vape when I pick it up and hit it enough times that it's fairly dry before I set it down or pocket it.

Great looking Reo, BTW. Glad you're diggin it!

congrats and Welcome to Reoville.

the o-ring goes under the RM2 to seal from the base of the RM2 to the catch cup. If it there and you're sill getting juice past the o-ring. Take it out and put a drip tip o-ring on the 510 connector.

Thanks everyone. I'm about to hulk smash everything in sight my patience is wearing thin. I built a simple 8 wrap micro coil, well make that about 5 now.. and my ohm meter is reading like 975... it was just working fine earlier.. now not so much. annoyed

 

[Filthy-Beast]

Does the meter have fresh batteries? Make sure all contacts are solid.

 

[Jhutt]

yup brand new batteries everything is solid, not making much sense

 

[Wickeddeuce]

i believe that would be a .975 ohm coil... were you shooting for about 1 ohm ish?

ok now I sound like a real newb. what the heck is squonking?????

 

[Cptfunpants]

The REO is a bottom fed device. It has a small bottle in it that contains juice, a "squonk" is when you press the bottle pushing juice up into your atomizer.

I figured it would read .97 not 975 maybe i'm wrong i dont know haha

 

[Filthy-Beast]

What meter do you have? post a pic

There are several ohm meters on the market which advertise that they switch over to milli-ohms under 1.0.

See http://www.empiremods.com/mobile/Product.aspx?ProductCode=OHMM

"When the measurement is below 1.00Ohm, the meter will display 1/1000s of an Ohm, instead of Ohms. This means there will be no decimal point. So an ohm reading of .75 ohms would read as 750mOhms."

Just checked a build on my meter that's like that and it reads 0.97. So I think you have an issue with the ohm meter. take a piece of 28ga kanthal several inches long and touch one end to the outside edge and the other end to the middle pin of the connector on the meter, you should a reading. I get 2.13.

Yeah when I tried that the reading bounced around like crazy. Must be a faulty meter.. what a shame I just got it like 2 days ago from RTD vapor, guess i'll go with out it

Maybe that is the problem, I ordered mine from RTD vapor and I just checked the description, and it says that same exact thing ^^

if its dropping down it is just a more precise measurement, which to me wouldnt be a problem... just more exact, thats all

just play with the coil and see if the reading changes...

 

[Jhutt]

Problem solved, sorry for the rant and thank you everyone for your help. I guess with this meter when it drops below 1.00 it reads in 1/1000s like sbqcy said

Is the leaking/gurgling issue resolved?
