All Things Reo

So today is my first day with the REO. I didn't bring any other mod, only spare batteries and juice in case I run out.

Had my first few vapes now and I'm mighty impressed!
Flavour is fantastic and full! Im getting big clouds even on the 1.4ohm coil.

I now see why there is such love for this little unit that hits so big!

I've played around with the coil heights as I got the advice from @Silver.
I actually ended up having it at pretty much the same height as what he has his. Moving the coil even a tiny bit makes such a big difference! :eek:

Coffee and REO. Epic combo!!

I like that colour combo. Enjoy the first day with your Reo. And happy experimenting with coiling and wicking.
 
Got myself a can of EC Contact cleaner from Builders Warehouse

My REOs have never been "properly cleaned" or bathed in about 6 weeks
I just wipe them down carefully every few days and i use a pencil eraser on the firing pin and battery ends.
No problems at all, still performing smoothly

Just wondering with the contact cleaner spray, what do I do with it?
- Where do I spray it?
- At the 510 connector?
- On the firing pin?
- Just generally everywhere?
- do i need to open up the firing mechanism assembly? (I hope not)

On my shopping list. Not quite sure how to apply, hopefully someone comes to our rescue. Methinks it could work by just spraying a bit on an ear bud, and use same to clean just the point of the firing pin, the top of the spring and maybe the ends of the batteries?
 
Thanks @Andre
Makes sense
But wasnt sure if i must use it as well on the 510 connector section when you take off the RM2.
 
i dont think so unless you want some contact cleaner flavour liquid , i think what andre said is fine
 
Not sure, but I would avoid getting it on any of the rubber tube and the bottle if possible. My guess would be like Andre suggested, using a q-tip and doing the battery + terminal, contacts etc.
 
I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or missing something. I brought 4 batteries along so that I could swop them out when needed.
I have only finished about half a bottle and been through all 4 batteries. I don't know if they all flat already but the unit takes a while to heat up and I'm not getting much Vape out of it.

I'm using the fAW which are 2000mah.

The coil is 1.4ohm. I should easily get through the day on 2.
But 4 batteries down and its not even 3pm yet.

Did I do something wrong?
 
Not sure what to suggest... I use my Fake AW 1600 mAh 18650's and I use 2 batteries for a 6ml bottle of juice. Hopefully one of the tehincal boffins will make a suggestion or two.

I think I know, try turning the battery in the Reo and test it.

One battery should give you about half a bottle. Something is wrong for sure. What did you use the charge the batteries with? Make sure your coil tails are properly fastened. Show a pic of your coil.

That doesn't sound right; my coils average 0.9 Ohm and I vape about 3ml before I need to replace the fAW (18650/2000mAh) when they discharged to about 3.75V

Tried that. Gave the same result.

It was going well till about 12.
Then started going downhill.
Been the same since. Even when I changed the batteries.

That's what I was thinking too.

Didn't make sense how it suddenly just started not performing.

Yip,I was driving earlier when suddenly after squonking, no ignition. Gave the battery a half turn and problem sorted. The positive batt terminal wasn't making contact properly.


Sent from my awesome Reo-mini.
 
Andre said:
As easy as that, looking good. Did you sort out the battery problem?

Thanks!

No I haven't yet.

Not sure exactly what it is.

I didn't bring any kit with me today.
So I'll rather wait until I'm home then I can trouble shoot and see what it is.

Rather have the right tools and get it sorted properly.
Don't wanna ruins my investment on her first day. lol
 
Ooh. You'd have to ship it to me and then I'd have to ship it back. I'm in Jozi.

I'm sure will be a lot easier to find someone there that can do it for you?

Try montague gardens dude, there are loads of factory's with equipment, but speak to an owner not just a general worker, you might get the owner to do you a favour just so he can look at your device cause its sooo amazing :D
