VV REOS Part VII

[redeyedancer]

ALICE get out your paddles, rob needs to be spanked

Wouldnt be the first time she has threatened me with a good paddling

 

[whatitstrue]

lol I never thought of that I am evil and should be punished . But I have to test it and I do love my vv grand . Its not often I pick up a metal mod over a wood mod but I love my vv grand

I love your VV Grand too!
I'm looking forward to the day though, when I can have my own to love. luckily I have a VV Woodvil to tied me over till then.

 

[unsure]

My door is very tight so I don't think it would benefit me any. It may loosen up over time with the low humidity here but by then the magnets will be much stronger. I don't think the decision to put only one was a quick one for Rob, most likely made over structural integrity and placement area's.

I agree my door is a nice tight fit too. Earth magnets are dirt cheap if you wanted to get some...

I don't like posting negative stuff so I'll throw some positives in too! I got my Reo back on Saturday(had to fix an issue with the atty connector. The last 6 days of vaping have been the best in over two years of doing this. VV bottom fed is the cats meow for me. For some strange reason, atty's that I don't consider worthy, perform much better for me while bottom fed. I like my new Reo very much and want to keep it, if I can keep it working! I cannot get it to fire a good atty or carto (just happened tonight while I was at work)

How do I test it with a multi meter? meaning where do I set the knob at? (DCV-ACV-OHM) 200k/200M/20M/2000???? sorry,I just don't know...and where would I place the red prong and the black prong?....then push the button to see if it is hot...right? I hope someone can understand what I'm trying to do here because I know my explanation stinks.
I'm trying to find out if I'm having the same issue or a different one. This really sucks! I'm going to have to save up and buy 3 of these things for a just in case moment...like this one,...again!

DCV 20 and red lead gently to center hole and blk lead to where the threads are

 

[davelog]

You can actually put the ground lead against the catch cup itself so there's less risk of crossing the leads, but make sure you keep the positive lead vertical so it doesn't touch anything but the center pin. It's a little tricksy, but you can read the dial with a multimeter.

I just picked up an inline though, which makes the whole thing so much easier. Now I just need to score a paint pen or three and mark off some key settings.

Thankyou...at full turn to the right I'm at 5.57 and left is 3.37. Not quite 3 and 6 but it is working. So I'm having the same issue.

Let me see if it's something I'm doing because this has me thinking....I usually put the atty on the adapter and then screw in, put on a drip sheild, then put on my drip tip. This is the way I have done it for all my other mods > S.B./ Minxy/ Merlin/ Denali and don't have this issue with any of them. Is this connection fitting different? meaning I shouldn't tighten down? Plus, sometimes when I put the drip tip on, it can be a very tight fit and I need to push down with a little force. I try to hold the atty while doing this but with a drip shield it's difficult.

Is it possible I'm pushing the connector down a bit thus making it just out of reach to make a solid connection?

i never tighten the atty/cart down real tight keep it loose till it connects you can feel it when you screw it down

 

[rockyroad]

I appreciate those tips Dave and Sterno...just one more thing and I got to call it a night. Does the connector make a difference? I use one that floats up and down on the inside...is that OK? It would be nice to have a long connector so I wouldn't have to use two at the same time, do they make long atty connectors? I appreciate the help.

now you made me nosy, hope you don't mind me asking, how does the vv grand compare to the vv woodvill?

asked wayne to find someone who wanted a vvw but missed the sale, dont get me wrong, i love the ebony/maple combo its gorgeous. I just found myself using my standard i got the same night(thx lisa n wayne). im a big battery/lr guy. i always have been. and tbh i knew there was someone that would use it and never put it down like i am with my standard woodvil. most importantly it had to go to a reonaut and not to some random person who would end up hitting the reo lottery in the classifieds.

So Free, enjoy your new Ebony/quilted maple door VVW! I know that you will give it a great home and as always YOU GUYS ROCK!!

I mark mine with Nail Polish. My wife and daughter have every color. Then I "seal" it with a tiny bit of gorilla glue and it makes a slight bump you can feel. I haven't made my "sweet" spot decision on the VV just yet. But when I do it will get marked.

What atty are you using? If you are using a drip shield you have a catch cup on the REO for that.

I am a lover of wood; a lover of REO; and a lover of variable voltage. All 3 combined and an added association with you and Wayne...this vvw jewel will always remain extra special to me.

Thank you, Stew. And thank you, Wayne!

I don't want to sound like I'm gushing too much here but as someone who has been vaping for 33 months I know of what I speak and I must say the VV Woodville is hands down the best mod on the planet. Combining the bottom feed juice system of a REO with variable voltage is just incredible. The consistency of the vape time after time just makes life easy. I can't imagine it being better. Maybe a VV Grand?

I have to agree with you on the VVW. Getting a VV Grand will complete my my vaping needs. Only decision will be tumbled/color/anodized/powdercoated.

Well said Rasci well said.
