Back with the RM2 on the Grand or back on the Mini with the OL16?
@Andre, I take the OL16 from the grand to the mini
Just have to say that the RM2 without a shadow of doubt gives me by far the best flavour for mouth to lung vaping.
I have tried several devices and tanks, but this little RM2 with its stock 1.2mm airhole is just in its own league. I know i have said this before but I am now more convinced than ever and feel like emphasising it.
It's no cloud blowing machine and its NOT a lung hitting device. But if you want high fidelity flavour, this atty shines.
Just recoiled and rewicked my Reo Mini's RM2. It is class. It fires with such vigour. My VM Choc Mint with a few drops of VM Coffee concentrate has stayed in this device pretty much since I got it a year and a half ago! I love this blend.
The flavour is so fresh and clear. It "jumps" into your mouth. The coffee rounds out the Choc Mint beautifully.
What a winner!
Stock standard 7 wrap 28g Kanthal build - 1.6 mm ID - 0.92 ohms.
Wicked with Koh Gen Doh. Simple.
The result is astounding for me. And the new coil just re-affirms for me why i love this atty so much. Long live the RM2!

Hi Guys, If I may politely interrupt and ask a question.
Why is the hole in the base off to one side and not in the middle.
Dave
Why is the hole in the base off to one side and not in the middle.
Dave
That looks like a marker, there is no hole in the base. Unless referring to the juice hole, which is off center to line up with the coil position.
Hi @DaveH - i assume you mean the black mark in the base?
As @Alex said, thats my own black koki mark to tell me where to build the coil so it is in line with the airhole of the cap.
The RM2 has a screw on cap, not a push on. So when the cap is on I make a mark in line with the airhole so that when i take it off, i know where the coil must go. Been tempted to engrave a groove in the base at that point, but my engraving skills are not the best and i am scared I will make a mess of it. Lol.
My black koki marker is always in my coil box
@dr phil , you are more than welcome to give it a try next time I see you
But I think folk that like big air and big lung hits and do those all the time might not like this. The flavour is outstanding but lung hitters may feel frsutrated with the lower volume of vapour.
What we should do is take a juice you know well and if you vape say 3mg, we put the same juice in say 6mg or 9mg in the RM2 and you try it for a while and see.
Quoting: @Andre :-
Yes, the o-ring sits in the catchcup underneath the RM2. Both to prevent leaking into the 510 connection and to help position the air hole correctly. Some Reonauts go without this o-ring. Some need a thicker one. Depends on how your RM2 screws on. Do not overtighten.
The cap of the RM2 is made to screw in to such a position that the air hole is situated opposite where the coil normally is. It is rarely necessary to have an o-ring there, if so, probably because the threading is damaged.
The air hole can be anywhere between 9 and 3, indicated with the blue arrowed line in the picture below. If the air hole is showing to the ground when you vape you will experience gurgling as the airflow is impeded.
Hi guys,
Just got my first Reo with the RM2 atty, I built a 2.5mm 28g 7 wraps reading at 1.4 ohms.
After giving it a clean, I filled it with 12mg (Fetch) but still tasting what was in here before.
Will have to wait for bottles, tube etc. They'll be arriving tomorrow hopefully.
The vape is okay, not getting much of a throat kick and flavour but I guess that's because of the old tubes.
Please see the image below and let me know if i've done anything wrong with the RM2, thanks
Sorry about the rotated photo, not sure how this happened.

Remember if you want throat hit lift your coil, for flavor as close to the rim as possibleHi guys,

Hi, @ChadB. congrats on the REO, and the RM2. I love both. I think I use a little less wick than yours. I snip my cotton or rayon wick right at the outside rim, so I don't stuff it under anywhere....I just let it droop and touch the deck. You don't want to cover the hole or it won't drain right. Also, check the cap to make sure the airhole is right in front of the coil. AND, make sure the airhole (and the coil) are facing away from you when you take a vape. I don't know how you hold your REO in your hand, but you need to adjust the airhole accordingly. I hold mine in such a way that my airhole needs to be facing exactly opposite of yours.Hi guys,

Also, if it's a used RM2, the airhole may have been enlarged. Flavor depends a lot on air. I love my RM2s and have no doubt you will, too. They are really good little flavor makers.
Edit: if you have the new adjustable 510, it'll be easy to position the atty. I have the old 510 in most of my REOs, and I position the coil using o-rings.

@ChadB, the RM2 and Mini is a superb combination. After many trial runs my sweet spot on this atty is a 28 ga, 1.5mm parallel coil, 6 wraps. The ohms is low, but it kicks like a mule and the flavour is super. At the moment I am vaping 12mg tropical ice on my RM2/Mini combo. Enjoy the ride, and welcome to the Reo family. Saluut.
Hi @ChadB
Looks good
My advice is as the others have said
Less wick. Just enough out the coil on each side to touch the deck (scroll up several posts on this page to see the side shot of my coil, its similar to yours - post number 1279)
As for coil placement, you should try get it fairly close to the outer edge but make sure you dont touch the cap when screwed on.
Also, you want the coil directly in line with the airhole. So when the cap is screwed on, if you could look into the airhole you would see the coil in front of it. What i do is use a black koki pen on the base to make a mark where the airhole is when the cap is screwed on. Then when you position the coil you can centre it exactly where the airhole is. You can see the black koki mark in my picture above too. Dont worry it wears off after a few days
Then adjust the height to tune it. Higher for more throat hit. In my coil above, you will see its pretty high up because i like throat hit. I am happy when bottom of the coil is in line with the airhole. A slight movement can change the vape considerably. You can just put the cap next to your atty at the height it would be to judge this.
Perhaps also try aim for a lower resistance around the 1 ohm mark. I am not as happy higher up. Perhaps try 7 wraps around 2mm. That should give about 1.1 or 1.2 ohms. I usually go smaller ID at 1.6mm. My standard 7 wrapper is about 0.9 or 0.95. For more vapour I do 29g paracoil around 1.6mm, 5 double wraps - comes out at about 0.4 or 0.45. Glorious.
Play with the height of the coil until you are happy.

Great advice above. One thing to add regarding your flavour ghosting is that the RM2 has a ceramic deck, which can absorb flavours/scents more than ss.
Maybe consider cleaning the atty vigorously - I'd suggest using denture cleaner (just as if the atty was a set of false teeth). It works wonders on cleaning up the base. A long boil with detergent, a soak in alcohol, or a bath in a baking soda mixture would work, too.

Most welcome to Reoville. I cannot add to what the other Reonauts advised above - helpful lot. What could help to get rid of the taste is some vodka. Shoot it down the RM2 and through the tube with a syringe. Repeat. Wash out with hot and then cold water.Hi guys,

And here is your official Reonaut badge:
Thanks for all of your help, appreciate it truly. Definitely going to try this all tomorrow starting with the cleaning.
I finally got a badge to show my girlfriend the purchases I make are worth while
I finally got a badge to show my girlfriend the purchases I make are worth while
Big game changer!!
Quick thanks to @Oupa for the goods I received and the free gift!!
So I did a big clean on me Reo and built a 0.9ohm using 28g. Not sure of the mm but it was smaller than the blue screwdriver.
I positioned the coil higher and closer to the outer rim, using cotton bacon V2 and very little might I add.
This thing is awesome, really good throat kick, decent flavour and pretty good clouds for MTL.
2 queries I have; Is it normal to cut the tube so it fits in the Reo?
Secondly, I received some paste/goo from VM, what is this for?
I thank you all for your help, it's really an awesome vape and I can see why it is so truly loved! Bring me another Reo
