Lets us know how the little battery holds up versus the juice level in the bottle
I think a few short high octane toots here and there is whats suits this setup

That is way high! will try replicate a bit later. Thanks for sharing.I think I found something that’s works for me. Will report back at the end of the day. Not advisable to try a really high nic juice on an empty stomach before breakfast lol
Went with 26G ss 10 wraps on a 2.5mm bit coming in at .65 ohm. Put the coil between the posts and used the wick tails to create an air passage just off the post. Running it in single smallest air hole config and getting decent flavor but as expected, immense throat hit.

I was at a kids birthday party today and there was a large number of senior members of the family there so cloud chucking was a big no no. In steps Reo mini and man oh man can she handle her own. High octane tooting at its finest. Tiny but effective without compromising on flavor. A .65 ohm build shouldn’t be too taxing on the tiny battery and the large amount of wick should hold and consume juice significantly well enough to ensure that a single battery sees the bottle through. I prefer all my mech squonkers to run that way then it’s easier to gauge battery life based on juice quantity remaining

Use the disassembled top cap to put on the rda after installing the coil to make sure there’s no contact between the coils and the top cap. Glow the coils and see if there’s any sort of contact while still on the 521 tab.

That sounds dangerous? Will it not be safer to just read the resistance with the cap on. If shorting no or very high resistance is shown.
Now that I read what I typed it does sound dangerous but the first part of that statement was supposed to clearly state to check first that there’s no contact. I do follow with a quick pulse of the coil to see that there’s no short on the tab though because at worst the tab will stop working whereas on a mod the end result could be quite catastrophic

HI guys, I'm new to vaping and I clicked on this thread curios to know what do you's mean by "Pit stop"?
Like your curious attetude @Sharty. Basically a pitstop means to clean, recoil and/or rewick your atomiser.
Regards
Thank you @Raindance 
Or refill @Raindance
@Sharty, when you get into rebuildables, the nice thing is you can customise your vape to how you like it.
Best thing is to get a device thats easy to build on and that is popular so you can ask others for help
Then the pitstopping comes in various intervals
Change of wick when its tired - say after a few days or if you changing flavours to a very different one
Refilling, obviously more frequently
Making a new coil - coils can last months, but curiosity for different builds often leads one to change it in search of a better vape experience.
Warning, it does take some time and if you are the pedantic type, it can consume a lot of time
But its very rewarding

@Raindance Which device would you recommend that would be easy to build? What are the popular devices out now? I've been hearing alot about squonkers.
Had some time so I resurrected the mighty Kayfun V5.
It needed a new coil so I tried the VandyVape superfine fused Clapton wire.
Not the neatest. But it will have to do. I struggle getting this wire neat. 2.4mm id. 6 wraps.
Wicked and lubed up. Trying Royal wicks in here.
And voila!
Decided to put it on the Pico which has been sitting on the sidelines for a while. Great match. VapeCon white band
Put in LIT Sidechick to give this setup a run against the Skyline, which has the same coil and wick.
I tell you this KF5 is good. It has great flavour. Will vape on it for a few days and see how it goes... so far it's excellent.

Lol, looks like I was tipsy when i wound that
Just not sure how to handle that wire @Andre
Its quite springy and not sure if one must pull it tight...
Strange. Haha
PS - the reason I put the Kayfun 5 on the Pico was also because I was inspired by the following post by @Amir :

You are right @Amir, the Pico is underrated. Its a lovely little mod. Perhaps for me its a tad too small but it packs a punch and has been reliable for me so far. Kayfun V5 is a bit tall for it but it works perfectly

Ok a major pitstop for Reo Blue and Nuppin V1
A strip and clean
On this one the negative spring came loose nicely. No problems.
Toothbrush. Rubbing alcohol. All ready.
Time for a nice warm soapy bath!
I am quite surprised just how clean this Reo was behind the delrin plate. Almost not much to clean. Did find some dried juice on the fire button which was bugging me that it wasn't smooth.
So far so good. Can't wait to bring this Reo back into action. I've missed the Nuppin and been distracted with other things...

Such a great combo the Reo and Nuppin, simply gorgeous

Thanks @DoubleD
It was my first lung hit on the Reo and will always be special !
Reo Blue is back together and shining.
Wanted to build a new SS dual for Nuppin V1 but I forgot how tricky it is. Need to measure leg lengths. And get the coils identical.
It's late and we are tired. This will take me a bit of time. Will have to coil another day.
Damn I hate it when I only get half way
But I want to do this nicely and select the right juice. Enough for tonight.

You are a bad influence @Silver I forgot I had the kayfun 5. So just had to try the superfine mtl wire on it. With some good boy oak aged it is very very nice. Also 6 wraps 2.5id. Nice wire but such a pain to work with.Had some time so I resurrected the mighty Kayfun V5.
