    Vaping in the hotel room. Lesson learned

    Just get a Smoking room, if they have one. In lots of hotels, you can get a hefty charge added to your bill for setting off a smoke detector.

    That's just sad. I haven't been through there in probably 15 years. Any time I go from Florida to Upstate NY nowadays, it's on one of those new fangled flying machines.

    I used to have to drive through Wilkes Barre/Scranton, Pa. occasionally. I-81 seemed like it was under construction for years. The common joke was that they ran the Interstate straight through both cities; and then came back and cut in all the interchanges.

    I lived and worked in Colorado for about 6 months in the late '90s. Specifically, Denver, Colorado Springs, and Vail. Bear in mind, it can be snowy there by mid October, although it can still be pretty nice during daylight hours. Lots of great mountain biking to be had.

    They really are. Rob and Peter are stand up guys. Peter discussed every step of the process with me, to be sure I got exactly what I wanted. The mods are expensive; so he explained the pros and cons of each choice with me. Fixed vs drop out firing pin, CA vs oil finish, brass vs SS 510...

    It took be about a 1 1/2 years to get my first Pdib Li'l Pinch. I had even forgotten about it, until Peter contacted me via PM that my name was up for the next batch, and he asked if I was still interested. My 2nd was a bit quicker, because someone else had dropped back, and Peter asked if I...

    I love my REOs. The metals are my 'out and about' mods. They go golfing with be, or out on walks, etc. But I'm an old briar pipe smoker. So, when I'm sitting around home, in my den/office, relaxing, I like my Woodvils and Pinches. They rarely leave the house, other than maybe quick car errands.

    I agree. Full disclosure: I don't do all of my vaping on REOs. I spend a good deal of my time, when I'm home anyway, using my Pdib Pinches. I appreciate the craftsmanship, and the work that goes into each one. But the 3D boxes...I just don't see it.

    I think it's related to the recent glut of 3D printed mods. Why anyone would dump REOs in favor of 3D printed boxes, I have no idea. But there seems to be a collector mentality that has sprung up around them. The business model seems to be: Limit production. Sell only on Facebook 'closed'...

    Holy bad battery Batman!

    I only use HG2s. I keep track of the dates I first put them into service. My last batch was mid October, 2016. They all charge to 4.19 or 4.2 still. I use them in single batt. Mechanical squonkers. I only buy from RTD Vapors. I have 8, which I cycle through 3 mods. I wouldn't accept a battery...

    I love both the Grands and the P67s, depending what atty I'm using. I don't like the look of 22mm attys on Grands. The overhang just bugs me. I use smaller attys, like the Nuppin or O-16 on my Grands. 22mm attys, like the Hadaly or Stumpy go on the P67s.

    I never got in on the NarDa. But with all the hype about other attys, like the Hadaly, of which I have a couple, I'll still take the Stumpy over it. IMHO, the Stumpy remains one of the best attys ever made.

    I have 3 of them. A BF modded Stumpy is still one of my favorite attys.

    For the money, I just don't think you can beat the REO Grand. It's built like a tank, and with a little care, and the availability of spare parts, a Grand should last a lifetime. That being said, when I'm home, 99% of my vaping is with one of my Pinches. They're beautiful, and work flawlessly...

    Rob didn't move there. He sold the business to a family from there.

    Many years ago, when I used to follow sports car racing, I made a couple side trips through Ottawa, when I was on the way to and from the races at St, Jovite, in Quebec Province. St. Jovite is at the base of Mt. Tremblant, which is a famous ski area in wintertime. Beautiful country up there...

    Ottawa is beautiful! I haven't been there in many years.

    Do you think vapers get a bad rep??

    Two of my favorite people wear them: Keith Richards and Raymond Reddington.
