    You can lead a horse to water

    Sorry about that, did not mean to go down a rabbit hole with that post. I think I am hyper-sensitive the cost since it comes up as an issue when I show people at work. I think they should go straight to a Reo but I have yet to be able to justify the price.

    You can lead a horse to water

    The economics of it is very clear. However, when you don't have much money the economics of what you should buy gets out weighed by what you can buy. Poverty can be a vicious circle and having limited cash often means limiting what makes long term sense. You can also say that its cheaper that...

    You can lead a horse to water

    Lets see... REO (blemished) $115 RM2 $43 Batteries ($22) Wire ($10) Spare Parts ($5) About $200, less liquid, to get started with a single Reo. If someone is on minimum wage, that is a whole lot of money to spend on something all at once. Being cash poor can be a cycle. Even for cigs some...

    Micro Coil for the RBA on your REO

    I picked up some "thrum" scissors recently. You can get them all sorts of places, fastech, amazon, ebay. They are cheap - as low as $1 each. They are made for embroidery but they are fantastic for clipping the cotton. I tried sisors, nail clippers, etc. and these are far easier to use and work...

    REOs piqued my interest. .. but no VW??

    The Reo really does not need a kick. I have a kick and it sits on the shelf. It does work easy enough if you want to go that route. With a little practice on the RM2 to get the micro coil down it just doesn't need it. You make the coil to your taste and don't need something to be make the...

    Micro Coil for the RBA on your REO

    So, the coil on my Cyclone has been action up. I was using ekowool on it, trying to get it to work good. Compared to the RM2, it was just not cutting it. I had the same liquid in two Reos, one with the Cyclone and one with the RM2. The RM2 was notably better. The Cyclone was good but was...

    New REO

    That just made me think...one of the great parts of Reos is all you have to decide is which model (only 4) and color to buy. No more, hummm I wonder if "X mod" has a better switch/connection/build/etc than "Y mod". (Only to find it is about as good as the ones you already have/had. :toast...

    RM2 / RBA 2.0 / Reomizer 2 Rebuild Tutorial

    It's a tough call, the RM2 is a better vape but the Cyclone is much better build quality (and more expensive). The RM2 is also easier to build.
