So I'm considering joining the ranks in reoville, my only concern is how do these hold up in the heat? I do a lot of riding on weekends and in the Florida heat my mod sits in a saddlebag or windshield bag in between stops. How do they handle the heat and vibration?
Florida heat, reo and a Harley?

Not a 100 percent sure on the heat issue, but I can tell you they are pretty near indestructible mods. I've dropped mine, kicked mine, scratched and scuffed it up, knocked it off a tractor onto the shop floor, covered it in grease, left it in the car overnight and throughout the day... And the list goes on. I have not had a single problem yet. I don't think heat will be an issue as long as your o-rings are fitted properly, especially in the bottle cap. The worst that'll happen is your bottle might get a little softer and easier to squeeze, I have noticed that happens when it gets hot out while I'm working or when I leave it on hot engine parts.
I remember seeing one post where somebody dropped their Reo off a Harley at a good speed and it still works...
Basically just give the Reo a shot, you won't be disappointed!

Your juice will thin in the heat and may cause it to auto feed. The reducer tube included with the Reo should stop that though.

From what I have read so far, I don't think nothing stands in the way when you go to Reoville. heehee I'm sure someone here will gladly help you with your question and if you put in REO in the advanced search....lots of threads come up about the REO. Good luck to you and happy vaping. Be careful on that hog. You made me think of another perk to vaping. It is going to be easier on a bike.
Ha we'll I don't think I'll be trying my luck with a blind squonk at speed on the ultra but less chance of hot ash in the eye 
i took mine on a couple rides so far this year and nothing happened to it, i was a bit concerned about the temp of the battery though but to the touch it was not hot
I would think a saddle bag would be fine. Under a windscreen if the sun is hitting it..may be a bit much for any pv battery.
And as others have stated you may have to use the included reducer tube if your juice gets too thinned out.

I've ridden several an afternoon in the NW Georgia summer heat and humidity with my grand in a sunglasses case in a belt pack.
This is on my CR 125 in hard pack clay and I can all but assure you the pounding it took was much more than anything the street could ever impose on it short of jumping partially open draw bridges, an afternoon of freestyle curb bopping or an evening of speed bump manuals.
If you run high VG juice like I do, auto feeding shouldn't be an issue (it never has been for me) and if you vape the juice you squonk before you put it away you should be in great shape.
I put my REOs in that sunglasses holder to protect them from dust and the like whenever I ride.

Mine works great I'm also down in florida. I do HVAC and I'm usually in attics and have never had a problem with my reo
