I've had my Reos for over a year now and am thinking of stepping down from 12mg to 6mg. I hope there's still good throat hit and flavor. My choice for the switch is so I can vape more often, and for longer periods of time. I love my Reos.

Where do you guys stand? Will I notice a difference? If so, what?

I love you all, have a Reo Grand day! :laugh:

I recently went from 32mg to about 28mg.

How? Well I started by putting VG in my REO bottles. Just about 1/3 to 2/3 of my 32mg. It was good. A softer hit and I could vape longer.

Mixed up some at 30mg. Used it for a couple weeks then started diluting it.

I can still vape myself into a nic coma at 28mg!!!

I like the lower mg. Nice and smooth, enough TH and plenty flavor at 15%.

I did 18mg 1+ohms high coils on my trident till xmas when I started diy then went straight to 7.2mg because it makes a nice round number when adding nic to my juice ... have some 18mg still hanging about but I don't enjoy it now it feels to sharp but with the 7.2mg on sub ohm coils I def get throat hit on the exhale but no sharpness

I started vaping at 18mg. Went down to 12mg after a couple months. Then when I went into rebuildables, I had to move down to 6mg because the TH was too harsh for me at 12mg, no matter the coil position. I still get plenty of TH at 6mg and surprisingly I still OD on nic.

But when I'm out drinking I like the 12mg, I need mountains of TH and a good nic buzz or i start wondering if I remember how cigs taste.

Everything that could be said has been said :( you guys are too helpful go away :p

No seriously though drop the nic, try it if you want more th move the coil, if you want even more I've heard moving the coil away from the air hole really ups it... idk though i like it smooth....

Edit hit send too soon stupid phone

When I got my first REO I was at 24 mg and stayed there while using cartos. Once I got an RM2 I immediately dropped down to 18 due to getting woozy when I was vaping normally(I don't always chain vape.....but when I do I like to do it without getting nic sick).

To me it's good economics when vaping on a budget as it keeps me from plowing thru my juice. If I have a few extra dollars laying around I'll get a bottle of my favorite flavor at 12 and go to town on it for a weekend!

I entered vaping at 18 mg, stepped down to 12 with rebuildables (kayfuns and the like).

By adjusting the coil (ohms and placement) with the reo, I'm now able to use 8 mg all day and night (another win with these little beasts).

The one piece of advice that I'd offer is that, if you're not married to a particular one, try a different flavour if/when you step down the nic. That way, you're not concentrating on the difference - the new vape is just the new vape, not an 'altered' vape that you've become accustomed to. This worked a charm for me. I just like that juice, not that nic level.

18mg.

It's funny, 18mg obviously did the trick for me on carto-tanks, and when I switched to RDA's and the nicotine buzz was so much more, I remember thinking: "Man, I friggin' LOVE this. Why the heck wasn't I vaping 24-28mg before? Oh well, I can stay at 18mg I guess."

Guess I liked my nicotine more than I thought. Coffee and RM2 hits all night long. On a good night, it's funny when I sit down at a piano, becuase people can kind of see my hands shake as I hold them over the keys before I start playing. I'm a junky! :D
