I don't have a REO.

But I am now stepping closer and closer to the edge of the cliff I guess.
I'm just doing it back-asswards.

I knew "if I had a REO, I'd want a Cyclone for it".
So I just bought a BF Cyclone (what the HECK am I gonna do with that? I have no bottom-feeders).

I knew "If I had a cyclone, I'd want an AFC for it".
So I actually found a way to pre-order from the next batch of VA stuff - should be here in a few weeks.
(getting that unicorn - the Fusion drip tip, too)

But I don't have a REO. What the hell is wrong with me?
LOL


(set aside a black wrinkle LP grand, would ya?)



PS - anyone compared the NEW Cyclone to the original? The deck looks flat. I got an old one. New, but the old one.

Just got my 2014 in yesterday.. Still working out the build as its the smallest chamber iv ever used. Air hole is really small but I don't wanna make it bigger yet because flavor is really good. Just trying to get the vapor where it should be not easy with such little air flow. Never used the old one but this one fills and drains with no issues on the flat deck

Trigger pulled!

After putting a Grand in my cart, then switching to a Mini then back, in, out, in, out, I have finally ordered:

LP Grand, black wrinkle with silver vein door
a spring, a couple bottles, a couple o-rings
I have a Cyclone sitting here, with an AFC and Fusion tip coming sometime pretty soon (fingercross).

Wish me luck. That friggin' Cyclone deck is tiny to me - I just struggle with builds, so I hope this works out...

I did the same thing. Lp vs original. Mini vs grand.
I'm very glad I went with the lp grand, I'm just a 18650 kind of guy, plus the grand is a a lot smaller than I thought it would be. Congrats!

Bro the cyclone is not difficult to build. Great choice. Here's a series of vids on how I build mine:

Building the coil:

If I can do this stuff ANYBODY can. Trust me. Congrats and welcome :)

Thank you, sir!
Already have watched several of your vids as part of "coming around"...lol.



I think I'm all set, once it gets here, though I am still shopping to also try one of the latest wicking options (I lean towards ready-x-wick for endurance, but I think I'll try japanese cotton or rayon or something with the REO). Anyone know a place with KGD in stock, or rayon in less than a bale, or should I try "Cotton Bacon"?

WOOHOO TRAIN!!!! You are gonna love it! And you know me, I couldn't do squat and was a scared to try and build...well.... I LOVE building my own coils now! Ok, I don't have the fancy Cyclone, yet, but watching SuperX's and others vids...easy peasy! And the vapor/flavor outta these REOs are crazy!

Looking to get a second now, like you, a LP Grand (would love a Woodville but fat chance on that one). 2 of these and my other mods/set ups... I'm done, happy and will only get more toppers. Ok I say that now, but I'm happy with what I've got now.

I use KGD, love it and it's sold out Nationwide and I'm freakin cuz I need more :(. Post back your thoughts on it, can't wait till you try it!

Steer clear of any cotton sold by vape retailers. It's just cotton you can get elsewhere, repackaged and sold at exponentially higher cost.

People who have used muji and shisheido report that it very similar to KGD.

The only things I buy from vape retailers are attys, drip tips and batteries.

Congrats Train.

Please tell, where did you pre-order an afc?
Was it one of the new colored caps... I need brass or copper... shiney, shiney!

I think they'll be here any day now, and they should have them at Mountain Oaks Vapor - but I went a little nutz (as mentioned) and ordered already from here.

I got a black one coming...
