The REO Lounge - Part III

[beckyblue]

Ooooh...there are great new pics in the REO Family Reunion thread! Scott, and any other tattooed Reonauts, did you know there's a thread to show/explain the inspiration for your ink in ECF's Lounge - http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/lounge/404695-show-me-your-tats.html? But, back on the topic of the REOmeet pics, I've always liked shaved heads...we have some fine domes in REOville, indeed!


(Just a bit more promotion of a non-REO thread, though...if the song-chain game in my sig is of no interest, there's a newer free-association song-chain thread in ECF's Lounge that doesn't have the rules that that one does; it's right here - http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...zy-totally-clean-free-association-chain.html;).)

i have returned to silica for my main device, because it lasts longer. HRH likes cotton and i do too - but i can ruin it in a day. The birthday boy showed me how to make his favoured kind of setup, with a silica wick and i have managed 3 days with it - rinsed it out today and it's good.

Grand with an RM2. Top setup.

Jim, I've been using the same setup since the vapemeet!!!!! All I do is about every other day or third dry burn the silica till the coil starts to get red and then dry burn it a bit!!!

Perfect situation for a lazy old broad!

i don't recommend using blowtorched ss mesh in an RM2 - it discolours the juice. Popular opinion seems to be that you pulse the new coil on the mesh BUT NOT ON A REO - on another mod. That builds up a little oxidisation on the coil and stops it shorting to the ss.

I think a mesh takes about a day to break in if it is not torched. The benefits are it tastes clean but the throat hit can be fierce.

HRH does not like it, so i only make them on things i have to.

When i get some more money after paying for today's escapades by HRH - i'd like to give ceramic wicks a bash! I'm fairly sure i can ruin those too.

I use a torch type lighter to oxidize my ss mesh but haven't discovered any juice discoloration and I go through over 12ml in a day (could be a reason for this). May be true with other types, water/oil based or diff flavors, haven't tried too many different ones. Or a propane vs butane reason. I have also used mesh that haven't been oxidized on a RM2 with no shorts, as long as they clear the posts, metal rim around the ceramic base and cover cap. I believe Clyde uses mesh thats nut oxidized as well, iirc. But Clyde's mesh is a short piece and mine's about 1-1/4" long wrapped around a paperclip having many layers.

I think it doesn't short because its the wire's going into the posts are whats regulating the resistance and nut the whole coil Really interesting stuff, being a novice with electrical concepts

Well - i had to clean all mine - but my thanks to Justice for the emery boards - i stole one to ruinous glares. I watched some mountain guy do it, so i figured it'd be ok!

Damn uplanders!

Yes he does - and it's just short enough to fit between the posts.

The mesh does not count as part of the resistance, only the length and gauge of the wire - and that is why people sometimes use no-or-non resistance wire on the tails of coils. Silver is best i reckon. I got some from a jewellers but if i'd have had some prescience i'd have taken a shotgun and taken the damn diamonds too.

HRH is very annoyed at me - but women are like that.

Totally random but I'm so Pi$$ed right now... Our basement drain decided to backup because someone decided to flush the john really hard. We now have 3 inches of water half way across the basement which is awesome considering our desktops and it's carpet. Soooo mad
