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

[oldbroad]

I'm a little late to the welcome Plaz, so...


!

Any time at all that you have any questions, no matter if YOU think they're dumb, ask away! I've asked a lot of what i tought was dumb
and turns out someone lese had asked the same question before i got here.

And pics when you get it, please!

Welcome Plaz. You have made a very wise choice. I tried many of the same types of equipment you did and I haven't looked back since getting my reo. Once you get the hang of using the cisco attys you may want to look into rba's.

Enjoy your new Reo!

batteries, charger, and atomizers have landed... they're just waiting for something to arrive... oh, I don't know what that could possibly be...

Do you have the shipping notice? Does it say when? Could it be tomorrow? Wouldn't that make for a wonderful rest of the weekend??!!??! Fingers crossed for you.

 

[whatitstrue]

Congratulations and welcome!!!!!

This calls for a banana dance!!!!!

Hope your REO arrives today!

Lookin' at Monday, unfortunately. That's ok. I have a bunch of spare T3 heads, so I can swap them with impunity at the first sign of gurgling this weekend, without having to be conservative about keeping them on hand. I probably won't be using them much anymore after Monday.

Got my Grand! WooHoo!

Works great. The only problem I have is that the drip tip that got sent from Avid Vapers with the LR306s doesn't fit. And the atty gets pretty hot after a few seconds! But this device is pure brilliance. I'm stoked.

Glad you got your Grand! Would like to see a pic pleeze!

The 306 size varies by vendor. If it was a Cisco atty then sure seems like the drip tip should fit! You must have a drip tip with those! Don't burn your lips!

You did take the plastic off of the 306 right?

Duh, I'm an idiot.

Here you go... now with driptip installed. Man, I can be dumb sometimes!

And here I really hesitated to ask you that!!! There have been others that didn't know to take that cover off. If you have not seen a 306 before and expect a 510 it can be confusing.

I have a Grand just like that sitting right here!!! Snazzy!!!

At least you didn't ask "what plastic cover?" I have had someone swear there was not a cover!!! LOL!!

 

[JC Okie]

Ha...new stuff is confusing. That is a BEAUTIFUL REO. You went classic and classy. I have a Red anodized Grand with a silver door. So.....give us a report on how it vapes. Don't vape yourself into a nic coma just because you can't put it down.

Congratulations! One of the hardest things about a REO is waiting for it.

Thanks, the pinky VVG in your avatar is SNAZZY!

Yes, I went with a more "cosmopolitan" look. I work in NYC, where everyone's always dressed in black it seems... this seemed to match that vibe. I have a feeling I'll be ordering more of these... maybe I'll get more adventurous in the future with respect to color schemes.

You clearly have exquisite taste.

 

[super_X_drifter]

Plaz, very nice looking. I agree, the black & silver perfectly executes the desired aesthetic.

It vapes tremendously!!

I love it. The LR 306 with the short-ish tip is giving me a warmer vape than I'm used to, but I think I'm already coming to like it.

I also ordered an A7 though, so I should have some fun diving into the infinitely adjustable world of custom coils. And being a bit taller, I'm thinking it will probably have an intrinsically cooler vape, unless I really hotwire it.

Don't worry, I can handle it. Even though I didn't realize the 306's plastic was removable at first.

 

[Plaz]

I think I've already got the blind squonking thing down. Yay!

I could make a mini just like your Grand by switching doors (have a silver/silver and a black/black) but I'm too much of a fuddy-duddy. (That and the silver's been used for cinnamon, which I really don't much care for.)

About atomizers & their covers...I started with a pen-style, big honkin' atomizer, then got an eGo clone kit that came with two atomizers that were barenaked, no plastic covers. So...as far as I was concerned, 501 atomizers were little bitty things, about an inch long. When I received my first order of 501s I didn't recognize them, didn't even see that the plastic cover came off. I actually fired off an email to the vendor expressing my confusion. (Politely, thank heavens.) Their patient response was a moment for me for sure.

Nobody's born knowing this stuff, y'know.

Plaz, it'd be a good idea to have some spare springs around. I hear the A7 can have issues and short collapsing the spring. That means no new springy no vapey. Just a heads up.

+1....^^^ Be a little careful with the A7. Make sure the center pen is screwed in and that it's not wobbling.
