See.........I KNEW you wuz good peeplez!!!!Foghorn
Robs waiting for a shipping notice I ordered a pile there will be plenty to go around
They sometimes don't bother with niceties like shipping notices; my package showed up without a notice that it had shipped.
Just wanted to share, I seated the bottle using the pinch tube and squeeze method for the first one I set up and it took a few tries to get a seal. On the second one, I filled the bottle with hot tap water and then put the cap on and did the pinch tube and squeeze. The cap sealed on the second squeeze. I think the water filled bottle built up a lot more pressure than the air.
I recently received new bottles for my Grands and Peko's. All bottles and caps were pre-assembled by Anthony prior to leaving Italy. I had 1 of the 6 bottles that just wouldn't seal at all and was getting very frustrated. After all was said and done, what I did to fix the problem was just swap out top caps with another bottle set up and it seems the original bottle just didn't like the top cap that Anthony matched it up with... I have all of them working as they should and am very impressed with them to say the least. My arthritic hands have never been happier in my vaping journey to date as they are now. I have even found myself being able to pinky squonk the new bottle as well...
ETA... I read somewhere in here that some were having problems with the feed tubes not being long enough for their Grands, but found that on mine I actually had to cut both ends of the feed tube to work in mine. Maybe I was just lucky and received longer tubing than most. I did order my bottles the day they were available from Anthony, but received them after those that were in the co-op here on the forum. I lost track of the co-op and had to order them on my own...

my tubes are really long too which is great. Glad you posted about swapping bottles. I need to find out if that the issue or something else that's causing the leaking. Glad that worked. Just watched Rob's video about putting some liquid teflon tape around the 510 post, may have to grab some of that. It's a paste actually
Been using mine for a week and only once i had a leak. If that lid is not threaded on JUST RIGHT, it will slowly leak with each squonk. Still have that same bottle in my REO now with no leaks. That is the only down fall i have with these bottles, very minimal threading makes it a PITA!
yeah they can be hard to get on the right way. But it's so easy to get the tube on the nipple, that I just pull the bottle out completely to fill and makes it so much easier to get the lid back on right, than trying to do with the cap attached to the reo. As long as it doesn't widen the tube doing that, and I don't expect it will. But someone posted the tubing dimensions, so even then that should fix that if it happens

A few folks got some direct, but they're on the way to Reos mods.
They're just a bit bigger (8.5 ml instead of 6) but they're a LOT softer - you can press gently, and get a full squonk!

Sloth's had no issues leaking, and has never "primed" his bottle/tube assemblies.
Just simply squonking away
