ok...the pluid REO making everything taste like pluid thing scared me. i really want to experience at least most of the NT juices in this REO. can't wait to try Virus, BG, coolcucumber mint, SN, etc but don't want to do anything that will spill over into another flavor unless i intend for it too..

i guess worst comes to worst, buy a new tube :facepalm:

but doesn't *need* to be permanent, as with effort i can get rid of any flavor right? being that it will be a while before I get another REO - when i do oh god you probably nailed what I'd do if i have 3 of them LOL. when i get a second, Wakonda's got its own REO, just so it's always there to vape
in the meantime i was planning on having one bottle be Wakonda only, one bottle Strawnilla only, etc., and have 1 or 2 bottles that switch flavors with cleaning (or not depending on what comes next like you all suggest). one bottle for water for squonking to clear the tube. is this a reasonable and workable plan...i guess that's my question

Just don't try Pluid!! :lol: You don't have to clean between flavors if they are NT flavors. Just refill or swap your bottle and go!

Cleaning the taste of strong flavors is very hard as there are parts of the Reo you can't get to so you have to soak the whole thing. Look on the Reo sub-forum to see what they are talking about for cleaning tips and what was used and done. ;)

also, you can hold your reo under a faucet. just have the water pressure on low so it's more like a trickle. just be sure not to have a battery in but sometimes this is just as easy. let it trickle down into the 510 connection and the water will run through the tube and clear it out. i'll put either a paper towel at the other end or a towel.

and if i accidentally get the REO wet on the inside like around the firing pin etc...just let it dry for a while and it'll be ok?

Yes, with no battery in there it is just parts and won't do anything to it wet. Just dry it well with a towel and you're fine.

meg by pluid aren't you talking about BG?

No, Pluid is Pluid and a very, very strong absinth/licorice flavoring.

I didn't even have to ask lol, I posted this same OP over there and he posted the new avi LOL! He had already made this and nobody was using it. SCORE! :laugh:

The REO and I went hiking and I'll post pics when i'm not lazy enough to walk back to my car and get the cable to transfer them over. Does so well in the woods...and Wakonda just hits the spot in the woods. When in nature, I find that Wakonda psychologically takes on an earthy taste to me (it's the tobacco, you know?). in the REO it's just amazing.

I also named her....Gothics! Gothics is the name of a mountain here, and it is known as one of the most rugged hikes in the park. It is the only mountain I've ever hiked where i actually questioned whether I was going to make it up, only because some of the rock slabs are so steep, i found myself sliding backwards. But while it was challenging, I did it and it is one of the most beautiful and fun hikes i've ever done. I was looking at Gothics from where I sat tonight and held the REO up and declared it Gothics :)

The other cool thing about that is Gothics, when viewed from the west, has incredible and vast slides on it. That's where the name comes from--it almost resembles gothic architecture. The slides are old, and weathered, so in the right light they almost look a bronze or copper color. Kind of like my REO door, which "slides" ;)

No worries brothers and sisters, i stand united. I came to the local library for this very purpose after my hike. I just now sent in my comment, both in .doc and .pdf formats (about 1 1/2 pages). I e-mailed the tracking code to CASAA. Vape United!

I understand what the regulations are seeking to do to us, what I'm not sure is when the proposed regulations would go into effect. Next year or is this a more immediate concern?

Here in NY there's a more local battle to fight as well. I'm going to forward the comments to my state legislators.

We should all purchase more REOS and several years worth of NT elixir--just in case.

Yeah, vapocolypse has been the driving force behind my insane buying of juice, mods and fort building...:2cool:

The thing is man this is widespread now, seems to me if they wanted to stop this, big tobacco etc should have been on it a long time ago. I wouldn't put anything past them, but if they manage to significantly hurt us, I'll be kind of surprised. maybe I'm just optimistic. but that is why it's important that we all write to them

Just like my quote: "Folks, the cows have left the pasture, it's too late to close the gate." :lol:
