    OT question for "tank" users

    That looks Perfect. Thanks. I like that the tubes are pyrex. Do you pop off the top cap to refill? I have a bunch of cartos to use up. I guess I need a punch too. I noticed their cartos have a flange. Is that required? What purpose does it serve? Thanks again.

    OT question for "tank" users

    Got a bit of a dilemma. While waiting for the R&D Division at the Reosmods Headquarters to come out w/ the P68, or whatever it wil be called, I want to dedicate an on-hand mod to my daily commute. Call me lazy. I just don't like dragging my Reos in between home, work, and a place in the...

    Why is a Reo less hassle?

    Having the right set of tools really helps when getting into RBA's. The coils are pretty darn small, and the RBA parts are tiny. If I remember correctly, the ERA comes without a coil/wick preinstalled. I think the following are must-haves: An ohm tester. They will check for electrical...

    ~$38 was mentioned earlier.

    Why is a Reo less hassle?

    Very subjective question. Everyone has a different opinion on when a cartomizer needs to be replaced. At least 2 weeks in my opinion. If you don't run it dry. Some people feel it is not needed to prime them (drip into them initially to get the filling totally saturated) but I feel it is worth...

    The REO Lounge - Part II

    Hello ire. (Sorry I had to say that; makes me feel like a pirate!). No one will take offense to your post here in the lounge. You talked about a trade, not a sale... I saw your post in the classifieds. Been watching them today for some reason thinking a Chalice RBA might pop up. Man, 95% of the...

    Reo compatible RBAs

    I'd like to try one of these Spirals, or possibly a Killer (no minis or WV's in my collection) but I don't get the non-resistance wire thing. I'm looking for performance, quality, and ease of recoiling. And I don't understand what value the "Bottle Bell" adds.

    Ordered an A7, organic cotton balls, and a spool of Kanthal AWG 30

    I have some cobalt bits, but I may have already broken the little bitty ones :) I'm worried my drill press won't slow down enough to avoid heat-hardening the stainless. The more I think about it, I might call a couple of shops and see what they would charge. I'm recalling too many projects where...

    Or... maybe the cannibal police showed up: "....my niece is cooking(which might make me sick)....". I'm not sure that is legal.

    Ordered an A7, organic cotton balls, and a spool of Kanthal AWG 30

    I'd be curious... What size side hole did you drill? Did you drill more than one? I've never drilled thru SS on a convex suface. Such a small sized bit! This should be interesting, but I'm game to try. All I have is your standard bench top Delta drill press. I would make a v-block or use a wood...

    LOL, I'd have cut my own hole if needed. I wonder if they make router bits for leather ???

    RBA Problems

    What kind of RBA? I had the same thing happen on a Grand and blew the spring. As someone suggested, it appeared the RBA's cover was making contact with one of the posts once I screwed it on tight. Have you tried screwing the RBA onto the VVG without the top cover on? In my situation I think...

    my first reo!

    I takes some experimentation to get it working. To me it sounds like the tubing is too long. Take a good look at the threaded part of the bottom of the A7. You should see two tiny holes, 180 degrees apart, right where the top of threads end. If those holes get covered by your tubing insert - no...

    REO Family Photos & Storage Ideas III

    Wondered the same thing. I was ready to order at least one, maybe two. I thought of asking, but figured it didn't matter. Not enough demand, not any profit, complaints on the hole for bottle access???

    REO Family Photos & Storage Ideas III

    Serenity Gear Sleeves Noticed yesterday that the suspension of custom work notice was no longer on the Serenity website. Also noticed that Reos were no longer listed in the drop-downs for sleeves. Emailed the site to ask. Response was "Sorry, I am no longer making sleeves or lanyards for Reo...

    Why is a Reo less hassle?

    Great show. Brutal, but so were their lives. A number of the characters are based on real people. The History channel's website is full of interesting trivia and insight into their culture.

    Why is a Reo less hassle?

    I never have a wet drip cup, might just be my method of use though. I don't change flavors often. The RBA's are as pocket friendly as any atomizer you will find. Unless, of course, you are grossly overfilling one. The 510 connection on my Reos are more durable than any of my other mods. It'd be...
