    Unexpected Cyclone AFC benefit

    I've been using a Cyclone with AFC as my everyday atty for a little over a week now, and have come to especially appreciate one unexpected benefit. Unlike the RM2, or the Cyclone without AFC, if I over-squonk and a little juice makes it through the air hole, it doesn't run down the outside of...

    Cyclone doesn't fire

    I received today a new "2014" Cyclone from the UK vendor. I wrapped a coil, tested it on my ohm meter (0.96 Ω), but once mounted on my LP Reo, it didn't heat up. It was tightly screwed into the connector. I put it back on the ohm meter and it read the same reading again. I think maybe the...

    RM2 top cap - swappable with AGA-T2 or IGO-L?

    Saw these top caps for sale, and was thinking a matte finish RBA cap might look good on top of my Hammertone Silver Reo Grand... but don't want to give up the RM2. Anyone know if the dimensions/threading of the RM2 is compatible with either the AGA-T2 or the IGO-L?

    VV Grand button

    Apologies for asking a question that's undoubtedly been answered here somewhere, but I tried some searches and wasn't able to find the answer... What's the backstory on the VV Grand button? It looks like originally it was a recessed button, which seems to make a lot of sense to avoid...

    Should I be worried about bringing my Reo in carry-on baggage?

    Taking a flight tomorrow, and wondering if I should trust the TSA to not hassle me about my Reo. It might look menacing on an X-Ray to those not educated in such things. Starting to think I should just pack my KR808D1 batteries and cartomizers instead... I can't bear the thought of the TSA...

    Got my A7, built my first coil, and it worked!

    Boiled that oil off there first... there was indeed a LOT and it smelled NASTY. Made a coil with 30 AWG Kanthal, measured at 1.45Ω, threaded some twisted up organic cottonball material through for a wick. Added carto condom slivers around the wobbly center screw for short prevention, screwed...

    Keep a close eye on your credit card statements

    Always good advice regardless, but be advised that according to a few threads on Reddit, there has been a rash of fraudulent charges against several vapemail customers lately. Nothing conclusive about the source of the problem yet, but one common nexus seems to be purchases from AVE. Ben at...

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

    One of the (lesser) justifications for this vaping habit/hobby of mine was that it was supposedly going to cost me way less money than smoking did. That doesn't really seem to be happening yet... I've been quite promiscuous with my Amex since I started down this road! (Other than the Reo...

    About to pull the trigger... seeking verification and a few misc. answers

    Greetings all, I'm about to pull the trigger on a Reo Grand, and being pretty new at this, just wanted to verify I've done all my homework correctly. Can you help me verify this list of items will work, be decent choices, and be all I need to get up and vaping? - Reo Grand - reosmods.com -...

    Is anything as pocket-safe as a carto with filler?

    Been vaping for just a couple of weeks now, with cig-style KR808-D1s. I think I'd like to step up to using a clearo or something similar, instead of dealing with low-capacity cartomizers that give no indication of how much juice they have left. Considering CE3s, T3s on a bigger battery, or the...

    Surprised at lack of vapor from pre-filled VG 808 cartos

    I ordered some V4L WOW VG cartos (555, Traditional Tobacco), and am surprised at the lack of vapor volume they produce. While the Traditional Tobacco produces a little bit more than the 555s, I find the Bloog and SI PG cartos (in any flavor) I've previously bought produce far more vapor. From...
