Damn.. only quite thick solder in "The Abyss' (garage). On a positive note though I did count about 400 unused power tools!!! No more giving me a hard time about spending on vape gear - At least I use it.

Hi all, been a while since I experimented with different coils on the Reomizer.
Up till now, I've been using my standard (compressed) microcoil, 28g Kanthal, 1.5mm ID, with just the wraps differing to go from about 0.9 ohms to 1.2 ohms depending on the juice.
As I stated in my first post in this thread, I still have lots to try.
One of those was to revisit the para-coil with 30g wire instead of 28g.
I found the 28g needed too many wraps to come out at a resistance I liked, so I managed to get some 30g wire.
My coil was a 30g para-coil of 7 wraps (i.e. 14 strands in total) around 1.5mm ID and it came out at 0.76 ohms.
I am still wicking with organic cotton.
Verdict after a day or two - It's good but I still prefer my simple single micro-coil
- the flavour I could argue is richer and denser. It's not as crisp and fine as the standard single micro-coil.
- definitely a wetter feeling vape
- the coil makes a bit more noise and although it doesn't splutter and crackle as much as the 28g, it still does that a bit.
- I'm picking up slightly less throat hit. Don't really understand why though. Coil heights are the same. (slightly higher than the posts)
I am using Tarks Poison with this coil in the REO Grand. I know this juice fairly well.
I will continue using it for another few days, but so far I am not so impressed.
PS - I have changed the title of this thread to focus on the Reomizer/RM2 atty.

I am interested to hear how many Reonauts have converted to ribbon instead of wire?
While waiting for my ecowool replenishment order, last week I was forced to go back onto cotton so wrapped a wire micro coil again. After two days, replaced the wire coil with ribbon and even with cotton I found it to be a harder hitting superior vape. Hopefull get my paws on ecowool today so I can return to sanity.

I tried it but went back to the normal 28g kanthal... I will try it again...
If you are desperate for Ekowool you can come raid my stock Markus!
It either works for you or doesn't... some people absolutely love it... for me I prefer Rayon.
Thanks for the offer @Rob Fisher - most appreciated. My SOV order should hit Kloof PO this arvie so I should be safe, if not I'll give you a buzz.
Iv been using ribbon for about 2 weeks now same coil. Twisted 3/4 wraps .5ohm ugly coil using .6x1mm kanthol. Its my first ugly coil so maybe I was in shock because the flavour was so intense, TH not crazy but it was ok. Using Gambit 12mg.Now after 2 weeks rising and re wicking flavour slightly dulled down so will rebuild tonight again and report back
I've tried a para coil yesterday. 28g came out at about 0.8 if I remember correctly. Still prefer my 28g, 1.5 id 7wraps. It just took too long to heat up, with no real advantage.
Thanks @vaalboy
I am also waiting for SOV mail - in which I ordered Ribbon and Ekowool. I intend giving that a good try to compare to my current benchmark. Looking forward to seeing if it is harder hitting for me. I do like the sound of that.
I did try twisted ribbon that @TylerD gave me a while back - but for me, it was too snappy crackly and poppy - and spluttery.
Then - Rayon will enter the picture soon hopefully, to confuse things further and give me even more work to do, testing, testing and more testing. LOL, can I ever just vape in peace, instead of worrying about testing out so many things.... ?
Come to think of it, the journey and discovery never ends
First thing I did this morning when arriving back in SA was to order Ribbon (0.9 x 0.1) from SΩV, as I only got a couple of cm left that I received from @TylerD. Don't think I can go back to wire again, ribbon just works the best for my ugly coils. PS: got a spool of SΩV 28G Kanthal wire if someone needs.
I don't know what it cost, you find out on SΩV website, deduct some % as I've used max 40cm and pay the shipping.
Welcome back @johan!
We missed you!
Going to give the ribbon and ugly coil a go soon - thanks for the feedback.
I personally did not like the Ekowool but many do.
I still have over a meter left of it and i dont intend on using it again.
PM me your details and i can send it down to you
This coil & wick setup is now a few days short of a month old and performs as good as day 1:
* Coil: 0.9 x 0.1 Ribbon Kanthal, 0.8Ω ugly/spaced coil (Ribbon Kanthal courtesy of @TylerD)
* Wick: Ceramic, similar to Ekowool, just way more stronger in all mechanical aspects (Ceramic wicking material courtesy of @Andre)
* Usage: on average ≥10.5ml per day
* Dry Burn: once every 6ml with ceramic wick in coil, it actually ignites in a nice flame.
