    [Closed]Unregistered Supplier : Bogger Box Mods

    Glad you found it helpful and all credit to Rader2146 who originally posted it. It was very educational to me as well. I now know why the venerable old AW IMR 18650 1600mah battery was/is so highly regarded. Mah rarely tells the story of a batteries performance.

    The REO Lounge - Part III

    Morning all. I called Kay about 45 minutes ago and left her a voicemail with the sad news. I hope it softens the blow a little bit rather than 'hearing' about it first on the screen. Christina, I have been trying so hard to think of all the positive memories of Jack and be happy for him that...

    The REO Lounge - Part III

    Well I am going to call it a night. I am just drained after this. As hard as this is, it has helped a little bit knowing that I am not alone in how much I miss him already and how deeply his passing has affected me. He meant so much to so many of us here and we all share that pain and comfort...

    The REO Lounge - Part III

    That's a good point Mudflap. That IS what Jack would have wanted. I am not sure she would understand though unless she is a vaper as well. Very delicate thing to bring up. The last thing in the world I want is for her or her family to feel like we are vultures trying to get his stuff. I will see...

    Red Sky Mods - Part Two

    Thanks Nuts. I know Jack loved his RSM boxes and his RSM family too. I have been working up to coming over here to share the sad news but just hadn't gotten there yet. Dam this is hard.

    The REO Lounge - Part III

    I have inquired about the services and will share the information with everyone the moment I hear back from his daughter. I posted a memorial thread with a copy of the PM his daughter sent me minus the email contact information. I will update that thread and here when I have more information. I...

    I have thanked her for letting us know and will try to find out info on services and such for any who may be able to attend or wish to send flowers or the like. I will of course share that information here when I receive it.

    R.I.P Gioacchino (Jack) Giampapa

    I posted this in the lounge but not everyone frequents that thread. It is with a very heart that I must let you all know that our dear Jack passed away last weekend. I received the following email from his daughter. Mr. Ratman, I am very sorry to tell you that my dad (Jack) passed away on...

    The REO Lounge - Part III

    Hello all. It is with a very heavy heart that I am letting you know that our dear Jack passed away this past Saturday, June 1st. According to his daughter, he went dancing as usual Friday night and came home afterwards. She spoke to him earlier that evening and he was happy and his usual self...

    Wow wow wow! Rm2

    I looked into that question a few months ago and found a poll here on ecf with over a thousand votes. The question was mouth then lung vs direct lung hit when smoking. The results were only about a 1/4 of the voters take direct lung inhales. Comments stated that they did so to increase throat...

When they are good, they are scary good! As in no on in the league can run with them, but when they are bad....ewwwww...

    Home-torched A7 warning

    I had a hornet that I torched and it had a perfect progression through the colors, yellow, old, bronze, brown, blue, purple, gray heading towards as close as black as they will get and then it went back to silver SS color and will not change again despite scotchbrite refinish and retorching...

    Question about the Grand.

    You are not alone my friend. I like the original too. I like the new rounded as well but my first grand and first REO was an original square back and it is my most used and favorite. It reminds me of an old 60's muscle car. Raw and powerful!!! A true classic!

    REO Family Photos & Storage Ideas III

    Thanks! I traded a pretty little bloodwood/birdseye maple woodvil 18490 for a cocobolo 18490 with my friend lalasalama8 from NC and stumbled into a VV Woodvil cocobolo all within 48 hour span. I am gonna be in cocobolo heaven. I fear it will trigger an obsession though, trying to track down and...

    So, I bought an HH357....

    Nothing wrong with premade attys. HH 357 is a great atty! It is! What you use is not important as long as what you use satisfies you. Period. End of story. Thank you, drive through please. Do not question yourself if you hit on a combination that works for you. Whether that is premade atomizer...

    A very embarrassing thing happened today *****BEWARE OF TMI******

    Reason number #163 for owning a metal REO. If you drop it in the poop, you can boil it and alcohol soak it to sanitize the ...S***.. out of it.....literally.

    bottom feeders vs. gennisis atomizers

    Best I have tried so far, and I have tried pretty much everything, when considering both flavor and vapor is 1/16th(ID, 3mm OD) Ekowool, 5 wraps at 1.2ohms with 30g A1 Kanthal in an ERA atomizer. Nextel XC-116 1/32 is probably just a hair better on flavor but not quite as much vapor production...
