You guys build low, thats also 0.25ohm. I have never gone that low (thats what my girlfriend said). Maybe I should give it a bash.
Doesnt the atty get get quite hot though, and battery life would also suffer?

That's why you should have 2 reo's, to sort the battery problem. And now @BumbleBee has 2 so he is sorted for a long while.
I'll definitely give that a try, but no matter how good it is, I don't need another Reo
Just want to make sure everybody took note of this statement.
Everything lower than 0.3 ohm's with 12 mg nic is great. But to answer your question, I don't chain vape at high nicotine.
We like it low, and we like it warm
I've already gone through about 2/3 of a bottle and it's still chucking as well as it did when I started. SS heats up quick so you're not draining the battery trying to heat up kanthal. Ni80 is much the same but with a slightly higher resistance.
Just checked, the 30Q is at exactly 4.00v with 1/3 of a bottle of juice to go. It may also be worth mentioning that I replaced the positive contact with a fresh one, the one it came with was cracked. Everything got a good cleaning and a dab of grease on the positive.We like it low, and we like it warm

Time to recoil the OL16
Last coil I did was my first SS coil for the OL16. Am taking a cue from @BumbleBee and trying to experiment more with SS. But it was too low at 0.28 ohms and a bit too hot. Was only 6 wraps each coil. 2mmID.
Tonight I am going to try 8 wraps on each coil. Hoping for around 0.35 or so. Let's see.
I just don't look forward to this because I find it quite challenging to get the coils nicely positioned on the OL16. Ah well. It's a great vape so I must push forward.

0.35 on the dot! Hehe
Feels like I got a full house @Rob Fisher.
Doesn't happen too often
Wasn't too bad to build this time. I pushed the coils close to the posts with the screwdrivers and about at the right height. Then tightened. Then fixed their positioning afterwards.
Coils looking pretty. Nice and high. Close to the posts.
This is 28g SS by the way. (I like it crisp with the thinner wires. )

Oh my word this is brilliant. Not as poky and hot as the 0.28 ohm 6 wrapper. It's slightly cooler but much denser yet still crisp enough. Instant too.
And a big thanks to @antonherbst for gifting me his OL16 tip which I love (mine broke). Thanks Anton. This is awesome.
The 12mg Pure Tobacco is a bit harsh. Hehe. I need to go easy on this. It's quite a vicious juice. Stop it I like it.
Man this OL16 rocks !

@BumbleBee , i am happy with the SS wire
Thanks for the "prodding" a while back
Its instant and this wire resistance comes out nicely for the Reo/OL16

Only a pleasure to have gifted you with the tip. Glad i can help a fellow reonaut. That setup sounds like a baseball hitter. Hitting hard
Thanks again @antonherbst
I really liked the stock OL16 tip and when mine broke off a piece on the top i was very unhappy
I tried lots of tips and found some joy with the Merlin Mini tip for a while
Thanks to you my OL16 is back on top form again !
0.35 on the dot! Hehe

Hi @Clouds4Days
This build is currently in my OL16 - just scroll up to check it out
Not exotic i know, but simple twin with 28g SS at 0.35 ohms
Its amazing and i like it a lot. Instant ramp. Crisp. Good vigour. Am getting almost a full bottle on a battery and its still a great vape to the end. Suits me for tobaccoes and fruity menthols.
Thank you for the tag Silver.
What airflow hole do you use @Silver ?
I want a tight draw so i can MTL .
I have never tried MTL on the OL16!
I feel bad about that because I know it is capable of that
But my RM2s are my MTL atties.
My OL16 is set up for restricted lung - using the largest airhole
Try the smaller holes for MTL.
I would probably not suggest a dual coil for MTL. Go single
Not sure if an exotic coil is right either for such limited airflow but i havent tried that
I recall reading a thread on ECF where the guys were talking about a "Z coil" for the OL16. They liked it a lot for MTL. Maybe try search there for it. The Z refers to the coil placement in the atty
Ahhh ok i know Exacly what you talking about @Silver , i have done a Z coil on my petri before. So will give it a go on the ol16.
I think Kanthal will be the best so i can get the ohms higher and maybe a 2mm i.d
I have alot of atties for restricted lung so the ol16 wil be my dedicated MTL atty.
Do you vape menthol fruits or tobaccos in your OL16 @Silver ?
Ok, let us know how it goes. I would also like to try the OL16 in MTL
I vape tobaccoes that are a bit weaker and fruity menthols - in the OL16
I also use this atty for juice reviews occasionally.
When set up right, the flavour is very good for me
Damn, that was a long and fruitfull 17 pages of information. Thanks to all the contributors. Now all I need is an OL16.
C'mon Courier Guy!

Awesome to hear you got one. Now just need the reo grand a vape heaven is in your hands.
Tracking TCG seems to be on track for delivery tomorrow, seems like its going to be a weekend of experimenting. Will be running it on the RSQ until a Reo finally shows up.
Regards
Copied @Silver's build above, Using a 2.5mm ID coming to 0.4 Ohm. On a 80% battery(4V) I'm vaping at ~30.5 Watt. Close but not yet as good as the NI80 build @Scissorhands left in but close enough. Practice makes perfect.

Not all that neat, and its bugging me, but will work on that.
Played around with single coils, both side and center mount, specifically for MTL purposes, but reverted back to this DL build.
Will need to get some NI80 wire. All I have is various SS, K and Ni200 wire of various gauges and formats.
