Probably your "best" (which is strickly a matter of opinion) would be the 510lr's or the 306lr's. Cisco, and IKV also have some great attys as well. Everyone has their own individual favorites. Mine are 2Ω 306 attys. (Usually if your into tobacco flavors the 1.5Ω are your best bet, sweet flavors seem to work better at 2Ω)
Welcome to the family! :2cool:

Welcome, slick! :)
I have limited experience with cartos, but I have been enjoying the Boge 2.0Ω Cartos and the 306 Cartos... Low Resistance 306 Cartomizer but it looks like they're out of stock of the 306s. :( Be forwarned, if you buy the 306 cartomizers, they too, take a different drip tip than the other cartomizers.

Most of my atties are 306 or 510 2.0Ω ...both Cisco & Joye and a few EM too.
EMs you can get from reosmods.com,
the Ciscos from Avid Vaper : Electronic Cigarettes, E-Liquid and Accessories,
and Joyes you can get from a multitude of places like Buy Electronic Cigarettes Online - USA Electronic Cigarettes, E Cigarette Kits, Cartridges, eLiquid
and Joye eGo | Joye 510 | Electronic Cigarette supplies Tulsa | Batteries, atomizers, cartomizers, e-Liquid and more!.

Yep finally bit the bullet and got a reo mini on the way. I got it from a fellow member here. I'm gonna be going to vapor king next week in Tulsa, which atty and carto would be best for the reo from there? I'm already biting my nails waiting for it to come in!!!!

It's not so much what's best for the reo (they're versatile!) but what brings out the best in the liquids you enjoy. I really wanted LR 1.5 to work well, since they're less expensive purchased in bulk, and I do like the extra warmth, but my go-to liquid has an almost-burnt flavor with 1.5; 2 ohms plays much nicer with it.

Supposedly the tobacco flavors are just fine at 1.5 (can't confirm 'cause I don't do tobaccos).

Congratz slick! Welcome to reoville :)

I can't add anything more to what everyone else has said for advice. But you're in good hands with the veterans in the reo forum - they'll help you through any questions you've got.

Myself I vape BWB juices or my own DIY junk when I absolutely have to. I also prefer carto's on my reo's over atty's. In the 2 1/2 months since vaping on my first reo mini this is my set up. I find carto's are much easier to feed because I tend to over-squonk atty's.

The carto's I use are the boge LR, but I've got a pack of smoketech dual coil carto's on the way to try out. If not I'm quite satisfied with boge - cheap to buy and they work great for me.

Reos are wonderful vaping instruments — congratulations!

I prefer Boge 2.0Ω cartomizers. They seem to work with any type of e-liquid (PG, VG or anything in between) and any flavor I have (tobaccos, menthols, mints, citrusy flavors, soda-pops, and "Whisky," the last from Liberty Flights). Two squonks, then the carto is good for 12-20 tokes. They last a long time, too. Right now, my Reo Grande is loaded with 3&5, and the carto has lasted a month with no signs of deterioration. Hard to beat that kind of longevity.

Thanks guys for all the great info!!! My reo should be sitting on my doorstep when I get home today!! I got my tasty vapor order in Saturday and the atomic cinnamon is my favorite juice so far!!! It's like the first bite if big red in every drag!! I'm gonna try and make it to VK this evening when I get off and I'll go with the boge carts, I'll get some 1.5 and 2.0. I always seem to get a burnt flavor when I drip no matter what i do, either burnt or flooded!!! I'll get some atties just to see if it's any different with the reo.

You will LOVE it!! I LOVE mine!! If I knew then what I know now, I wouldn't have wasted my money on those other models in the beginning, I would just have gotten a Reo. It's what I suggest to all my friends. Just so much simpler for me, and for beginners to vaping.
It's always good to have backups, and having got the other devices first, you will appreciate the REOs more :) (and yes, that was plural)

That is true CC. Like when I go camping where there is no power to charge batteries, other than my truck. I can charge my ego batteries at least then. Some day I'll get me another Reo mini. This time I'll get the green/black one that I wanted. Then I too can be plural...snork :)

You don't have to use the eGo on your camping trips. I just spent 3 days without power. Used my WF-139 charger with the car adapter.

I LOVE my new reo! It's like a while new meaning to vaping now. So simple, functional and easy to use! Got stocked up in new atties and parts from vapor king and I'm ready to go now! So far no burnt taste and very little flooding, it just works! I guess that's why sooooo many people love them!
