If all of that isn't enough, as an added bonus - it's just down right sexy.

It's not a fad, many mods have come and gone since the REO has been around.
Individual REO PVs have been in daily use while whole product lines have come and gone, and you couldn't get their owners to part with them.

This is so very true! It's not a fad item and the design has withstood the test of years. That's a pretty strong statement for a mod and a great measure of success. :)

We were at our local B&M this morning and one of the owners noted that I'm still using my REOs and it's all he's ever known me to use in the year and a half or so that we've known the B&M guys). We chatted some and he expressed interest in them. Gave him Rob's info and I believe he's going to give Rob a call this week to see about carrying a couple REOs in his shop. :thumbs:

And yup, I think they are sexy, too. Love my REOs. Just elegant! :wub:

Grab and go. Ease of use. Simple no mess no fussing about with it. Heck it's easier than smoking :lol:

I was hoping I'd see a comment like this. Just showed mine off yesterday and one of my comments was "I can build a coil almost as fast as properly packing a new pack, and I don't have to drive to get it". Wi the rm2 I'm pretty positive I've never fiddled with annoying but a disposable less than I now have to. Combined easy maintenance and a killer vape...what else is needed?

Because dripping while steering 78000 lbs at 75 mph on an Interstate Highway is hazardous.....

I feel very fortunate in that I found REOS Mods very early in my vaping career. After a few short weeks of using a Janty eGo and atty's, I posted a thread asking about "rough service cartos" and an ECF Moderator enlightened me to a REOS (Thanks again, HouseWife ). Even though I had to develop the 'Blind Squonk" technique so I could keep my eyes on the road ahead, it was truly a revolutionary breakthrough for me. Since then the RM2 came out, and now nothing could be easier for this old trucker.
I have dribbled my little REOS mini around in the floorboards of a moving Freightliner, bounced down the running boards and once even drop-kicked it off a stack of lumber (while tarping) on a flatbed trailer onto a chip-and-run paved surface. Try doing that with a ProVari and you'll be out $200. That little sucker IS indestructible. Robert E. O'Neill (R.E.O.) has produced a single block milled aluminum body that truly can withstand anything I have put it through.
For a new REOnaut, I would recommend a REOS mini 2.1, and perhaps a RM2 Rebuildable Atomizer. The recommended AW18490 battery and onboard 3ml. bottle last all day, even when my day is 20 hours+. The RM2 is easier to work with than a Hornet, and designed specifically for REOS users. There are other mods/ battery tubes/ PV's out there and if you wish to waste several hundreds of your own dollars that would be your prerogative. But you cannot go wrong with a REOS.

I've been traveling, so I have the same. A tin my wallet came in. Put two screwdrivers, small scissors, spare bottles, kanthal and cotton in it.

It can be improved on...but for what I needed it got me going. Next one will be plastic and have battery compartments.
