Clone squonker

Yes, the stainless steel 510 on the Reo adjusts with an allen key. This, however, is a standard profile Reo style- so you are rather limited as to atomizers on there. You could shave 3 mm off the catch cup to fit bigger atomizers.
I am more concerned about this statement from 3f:
Minimum supporting resistance: 0.5 ohm(Please use the atomizer with resistance higher than 0.5 ohm. Because the spring is with high resistance, it will be burnt easily if the atomizer resistance lower than 0.5 ohm; and the coil will be very hot and make the drip tip too hot.)
weird, jsut watched a pbusardo video on the reo grand (normal, not LP) and the 510 in his closeups had a slotted screwdriver thing going on.
the 0.5ohm thing makes me wonder if this is a copy of a reo pre-subohmkit...didnt the original reo have some sorta limitation like this too?. Those of you with reo's who bought a Dolly would do a great service if we could figure out what parts fit, as I dont mind buying a reo rebuild kit if the parts interchange.
As far as I know, and speak under correction, the only difference is that there is an upgrade kit that has a different spring that supports sub ohm.
Yeah, pbusardo reviewed the previous 510, which has a removable and replaceable center pin with gaskets. The new 510 was not made to be user replaceable, but as hoople proof as you can get.
Quite possible that the clone has the pre-subohm contact, button and spring. Wonder if that is a hot spring?
so for the sake of confirming things, does the new 510 as per reo 2015 models have the hex adjustable 510 as per Dolly?
Pbusardo video went from normal to sub-ohm upgrade, and the spring was replaced from a silver spring to a brass coloured affair...Dolly has a brass coloured spring. We will just have to wait in anticipation

Jees it certainly looks like a REO.
But I don't want a REO because of how it looks, nor the fact that it's a squonker.
I want it because of its build quality. The fact that a passionate crafter has been building the same thing for years, gives me great confidence in what I'll get.

I think that soon ir later was gonna happen. Me for example i have nearly all original stuff. But i have some clones as well. Im obsessed with svoemesto work and have all original kayfuns, but i use one kay4 from pallas when i need two.
Will i buy this clone ? No thanks . Im happy with my reos . But if i didnt have one yet i will and try it out ... Just to buy the original after if i liked it . I think clones come a long way , i saw an original nemesis long time ago and when we compared with my clone they were the same . If this thing sell we will see better in the future im sure . At the end all it goes to the people . Wanna have a real louis vuitton bag, wallet , belt etc? I do and i put it on my insurance , like i do with my mods . I dont care about it but i wanna a chinese LV wallet to show my friends? Up to me i suppose . I dont think this will affect reosmod at all because who own a reo will always replace with an original. It may actually boost his sales because after people try a clone and they happy migth save and buy an original one . My 2 cents .

Some very valid points.
I prefer original EVERYTHING, mostly because my stomach turns when things break. I really see it as pissing money away, which I worked hard for. But at the end of the day, availabilty comes into play, and I always weigh up if something is worth it.
Luis Vuitton wallet for me - not a f...!
But I would spend that money anyday on a T-FAL pan for example.
The original Kayfun is serious engineering, so I can sort of see the value in it. But these RDA makers for R2000 are smoking crack - a couple of posts on a deck with some clever airholes.
guys, attys and mods are a bit like breasts, some people prefer original, some prefer, well, clones If I didn'thave the Terminator mod and wanted to try bottom feeding, this would be my logical step. Dishing out R3k for a Reo and RM2 simply isn't on everyone's budget and a lot of moola to waste if you don't like it. If only Rob would do away with that silly litte square block on top of his mods and make it a flush top I'm sure I'll buy one when I get to my 6 month badge.

Oh gawd, don't say that, I'll never buy a clone again.
Yeah, could do without the catch cup for my taste, I agree. Maybe machining (mod then a bit taller) or patent reasons. The 2015 Woodvils are without and are perfectly good - a few still available btw. Irony is that the clone also has the catch cup - go figure.

Silcone allergy?
You meant to say: " ...... silicone again."
Lmao... epic.
or silicloneYou meant to say: " ...... silicone again."
a bit optimistic, it only got on an aeroplane on the 2nd. It'll be here next week sometime, I'm almost sure of that.
MAAR,
I is going to be quiet and let Rob do the talking, I have nothing to compare it to
That may be true - but we also appreciate your views being someone who doesn't have something direct to compare it to.
