Alternative to Carto/Atty on Reo Mini

[cryfreedom66]

Hey everyone,

I've been using my mini a lot lately (instead of my Provari) but I'm searching for the perfect attachment. I've tried a few different attys from avid...they have great vapor and flavor, but not a very good throat hit and they lose effectiveness after a couple days (too expensive for such a short life). I also have tried it with some boge cartos and shorty cartos, which have good throat hit but poor vapor and polyfill taste.

What else can you guys recommend to try? I read a thread from one guy who was using fluxomizers but that doesn't seem like it would work well...maybe a bottom coil clearomizer like this GotVapes PHOENiX™ REBORN Bottom Coil XL 1.5ml Carto 2.4-2.6ohms [gv-PHOENIX-XL-2.4-510] - $11.95 : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more ?


Thanks!

I think you'll be hearing from folks about the Hornet. It's a rebuildable atomizer thay fits the Mini. I don't have the Hornet but I do use an RBA(rebuildable atomizer) and they are great additions to the Reos.

+1 !
get a Hornet! They are awesome. They fit without adaptors. Great quality @ $75.00 and comes in colors to make your miini pretty!Quite the dynamic duo mini/hornet.
You can see pics of it if you go to the "Hornet has Landed" thread here.

+2 for the Hornet if you're inclined to try a rebuildable atty. I have one on my Mini and it's really a great vape. I have a rebuildable on every REO I vape, and I'll never to back to disposable attys, ever.

The hornet does look pretty sick, its just too expensive for me to gamble on right now...

how about the hh.357s over at avid? I see a lot of love for them but also a lot of people saying they are way overpriced for what you get...

Before I discovered and switched to the rebuildables, I used the HH-357s all the time. I loved them. They are rather expensive, but they lasted me a long, long time....much longer than a regular atty. I had a couple that lasted me well over two months each. It's worth a try. They take a tiny bit of getting used to, but I really loved them.

Another vote for the Hornet, but if you don't want to make the investment might I suggest a 901 atty? They were my go-to before RBA's. Best draw, flavor and vapor of all the disposables I tried. My faves were the Cisco bridgeless 1.5s and the IKV 1.7s. You will need an open center post 901-510 adapter, but I never had any problems with them. You may also want to get a drip shield as they sometimes leak from the side air hole.

Thanks for the input everyone! Can anyone recommend a good rebuildable that would work well with the reo mini but that is more affordable than the hornet?

There are no others that I know of. I use a adapter and my A7 or Reomizer. It is tall and top heavy but works. I can't spend much for a RBA, so I am stuck with what I do have.

You could always look for a Hornet on the classy's and get cheaper price. I was looking at the hh357, but at $25 plus shipping is was better for me to get a used RBA for the grand then 2 hh's.

Everytime I see your avatar of that beeeeeeeeooootiful redwood burl woodvil I get so jealous!!
I would crawl across a paved hot parking lot ful of broken glass in the desert heat to get a woodvil mini! Bummed that Rob will no longer be making them and only the 18490 woodvil will be the smallest when he does start making them again. I had the pleasure of buying a curly maple/ebony mini from honkeykong awhile back. Only had it a month before it was stolen. At the time I didn't realize that I had a collectors item that would be no longer in production mini woodvil. I'm hoping that when Rob does start making woodvils again that someone will want a new 18490 woodvil and be willing to part with their mini 18500 model! I love the size as I heard the 18490 model is quite a bit thicker. I know it has the longer battery life but I never minded having an extra battery with me for my mini. I will just have to be patient and enjoy my regular mini/hornet setup until I get lucky.

Did you ever hear anything about your missing Mini? I remember that happening to you.

The pic is my Woodvil. I should take a pic of my Mini Redwood burl. It is nice looking also.

I hope one day you will find a Mini they are a very nice size.

I remember this post from Robert:

Hello Rob I am taking some time to catch up . I have made 9 models in less then 3 years . I am jumping back into wood as soon as I have enough metal mods built to sustain me through a wood build . I plan to build mini woodvils woodvils woodvil 18490s and some vv woodvils . I have a ton of boxes half done and lots of wood cubed up and ready to mill . I haven't decided were I will go after that I no people want a vw mod something a little smaller then the vv grand perhaps http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/231660-what-reo-do-you-want-buy-poll-5.html#post7470218
