Oh yeh, I'm stickin.

good to hear!

Hello Reonauts. Good Luck Spydro, wish you well on your journey. You just remember where we are...

Anyways, for those of us into the P67:
I thought I would always be loyal to the RM2. The Hornet, the Cyclone, the Atomic, the Derringer, the Veritas, the Chalice III.... nothing could replace my RM2 for daily use.
Until now. This little beauty is only $18, comes with a replacement BF pin, 5 different air flow settings and an adjustable positive post. I've set my posts at 2:00 and 10:00 just to allow a tad more space for the single coil. With the air flow set on the third (medium) whole, I am very pleased with this atomizer.

glad you found something you really like since the rm2 is hard to come by these days.

Hi All! I’m one of those who have been so content with my Reos that my search for a “better mod” stopped years ago. They fit my vaping style. No fuss. No muss. Occasionally, like maybe 2 years ago, I tried a new atty (O-16) and have stuck with those happily.

did I write this post? hehehe well I could have. Couldn't agree more!

I just passed the 1yr vape free mark on the 9th

wahoooooooo!!!!

Hey guys, sorry to barge in here on you.

The last carto in my stash is on week 3 and fading fast and I was hoping you fine folks could help me out. I've been out of the loop for a while.

Any recommendations on an RBA from the ReosMods site? There are a few different options and I'm not sure what the differences are. I'd prefer one that can use standard 510? size drip tips if that's even possible anymore.
Also, what gauge/thickness of wire and wick should I choose?

I have a standard Grand that I'll be grinding down so I can use the newer style RBAs. I'm back up to almost a pack a day until I get this situation figured out. Thanks!

no such thing as barging in! Welcome to ya. I would totally recommend the O16 atty if you have something you can use til it gets here. I absolutely love them.

I use 26g SS wire from Temco (highly recommend them, but 250 feet is usually a much better deal than 100 feet, often less than 1.00 more) but I build about .5 ohms. What do you like as far as ohms go?

You shouldn't have trouble finding attys that will fit 510 drip tips. I'm totally outta the loop on new stuff, but most seem to, or in vids I've seen have adapters that will accomodate the 510s.

Can anyone please find the time to look inside their chalice iii and tell me where their airhole lines up with the posts or please post a picture? Mine doesn’t line up directly with the coil... I have my coil dead center equal space between the posts. I can’t tell if this is normal or not. See photo. I’m thinking of buying another chalice iii but it’s all dependent on this.

Welcome back @Sterno

Hi @Vapefiend. I just took a look at my chalice 3 (haven’t used it for a while but it still has a coil in it. My coil is in front of the 2 posts but centered (in other words nearer the edge) and the hole is exactly centered in front of the coil. From the outside the L & I in chalice where the hole is if went all the way thru. Can’t post a pic as I don’t have the fancy equipment and know how. I have an authentic if that makes any difference. Hope this helps.

 

[Vapefiend]

Yea I have authentic too but I think I got one of the chalices drilled all willy nilly. Thanks for taking a look for me.

I bought a clone when Chalices were popular and the word then was that the inner sleeves (with the air-hole for the coil) could be all over the place.
My solution was to remove the top, mark the base with a sharpie where you want the air-hole to be. Then screw the top back on and mark the bottom of the top part in the same place as the mark on the base.
Then remove the top and with a small screwdriver or similar tap down through the driptip opening and remove the inner sleeve from the top.
Turn the sleeve round so the lower air-hole lines up with your mark on the top cap and tap the sleeve home. That should do the trick.
This was for Chalice 2.

I have authentic that I bought from reosmods unless reosmods had clones this wouldn’t work

 

[Vapefiend]

Well I built the coil in it super sideways to line up with the air; maybe it will vape better wish me luck

Good thinking. Match the coil to the airhole. Let us know.

Hay there @TraceyS! So cool that you stopped by and checked in. Those Reos just keep on ticking don’t they?

Wow, 5 1/2 years smoke free! Bravo.

I’m betting someone here might have an RM3 or know where one can be scored. Maybe even put something in the wanted section? Or possibly emailing @Eric Parlin, as he may still have 1 somewhere?

So weird thing guys. I messaged Mark Bugs on Facebook and he or whoever runs the page told me I could actually move the airhole in the chalice by pressing out the inner chamber piece by the 3 top air holes. Not sure if I’ll attempt this but interested as I read only a clone could be adjusted yet Mark Bugs told me authentic can as well

Yup, see my post #650, easy-peasy if I could do it. Good luck
