Started off with a SS VW Tube mod but with a 5ml tank on top, the thing was just too big for bouncing around work. I kept looking for a VW device that took an 18350 (like Vamo) but they still seemed tall and I was worried about battery life. My device started falling apart after a month and a half, so I was really stressing and wanted something that would last. I looked at the Grand's and Mini's and finally ordered a Grand because of battery life. Boy am I glad I didn't get the Mini! The Grand is so small, I can't imagine even being able to use a Mini. The video's and close up pictures just don't do it justice regarding the size. It fits neatly in the palm of my hand and the button is easy to press. Squonking <sp> on the other hand is is not something I can do in the firing position and is going to take some getting use to. No major juice over flows (except my first attempt) and only 2-3 burnt hits in the first 9 or so hrs, so I guess I'm doing pretty good. :)

Well done Mr. Rob, Well done!

I did order a Kick, some 18490's and made a "Kick Stand" at work today, so we'll see how they work out next week. Now I just need an ERA or Hornet! "and that's all I need...."

Congratulations on your new REO, and....I agree the Grand is just about the perfect sized REO. I'm a girl with smaller hands, so I love the Mini, but I like the Grand better for battery life and for the 6ml bottle. You're right....once you have an ERA or a Hornet, you will be SET. Meanwhile, a Grand with just a plain ol' 510 or 306 is pretty darned good. Enjoy!!

LOL, famous last words.

Start with a delrin button top. $6 shipped. They're black, unlike the picture. Or make one...

Well, I... ahhh...ya. I mean it's just a $6 add-on, it's not like I'm buying another whole device right? :blush: Does it replace the existing button or just go over it? How does it connect?

Congrats. I see more Reo's in your future.... :p I have a VV Grand and ordered a mini the other night, and I'm already thinking of buying a regular Grand.....

I was considering the VV Grand and now I wish I would have gotten it instead. (save a lot of hassle with the Kick and smaller 18490's) I was afraid the Grand was going to be big and the VV Grand would be even bigger. When I first got it I had to go check my receipt as I thought maybe I had clicked on a Mini by mistake or they messed up my order. It wasn't until I put a 18650 in it that I realized it was really a Grand. :)
