The Reomiser 2

I wonder why the REO maker chose 1.2mm for the stock hole?
As opposed to say 1.5mm for example?
I think it just makes sense to make it smaller rather than bigger. You can always drill it, but plugging it starts to get messy. Sure it is more involved than that, but that's what I would have done.
 
I have 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.5 & 1.6 drill bits. Don't know if you will find 1.3 or 1.4 easily.

I wouldn't rush into making it bigger just yet Tyler. Rather try someone elses when you get a chance and then see what you think of it

Cool stuff. Will try yours then. Thanks @devdev .
 
Ok, so I have been thinking of drilling the reomiser out a little bit. The standard size is 1.2mm according to Rob. Anyone drilled their reomisers a bit bigger? If so, what size and how does this effect the flavor?
Many Reonauts make the air hole bigger. I think most of those go to 1.5 mm. Very easy to do by hand apparently. You could just use one of those pointed files if you want to go gradually. Agree, if you go too big you are in trouble.

I think the pointed file may be the answer seeing that the cap is brass. Thanks @Matthee !
 
Yes @natthee is correct, the brass of the Reomiser is very soft, and it can be done by hand and a little extra torque from a pair of pliers gripping the drillbit
 
Draw is very airy if hole is towards you, and a little less so if hole is away from you.
Hole should always face away from you to some extend - otherwise you get gurgling and sometimes a bit of leaking through the air hole.
 
Please give us another report after some time of use please.
Okay, so I don't think the plain wrapping of the 0.9x0.1 ribbon is all that great. The 1.5mm is a bit small. It is as if the kanthal doesn't give a lot of juice flow into the coil. The cotton burns quite quickly.
I will try with ecowool and will also twist the wire a bit just to get some juice and air onto the cotton.

That coil looks perfect to me. First time I have seen anyone going in from the back of the right hand side post hole, but it looks almost as if it could be easier the way that post hole is positioned. Just make sure that post is not loose, cause the post hole should be more to the front. It can be tightened by turning the post clockwise, but I know some of them are weirdly positioned.
 
Congrats on your first REO coil @steve !
How did it vape?

Thanks Matthee for the info , i didnt even realise id gone through the wrong post hole, it just seemed the natural way to do it, Checked both posts and they are tightly in place although it was difficult to navigate the wire through the holes. do you normally do the left hand hole first ? i did right and it seemed fiddly ??

@Silver thanks mate it vapes like a beast but i will try and go a bit lower resistance next time

I stick the tail through the left hole (normally leave a longer tail than the right tail), then right tail through the right hole, then position the coil (with the mandrel still inside), then tighten almost fully, make sure coil is positioned correctly, then fully tighten.
