Flying with my REO

[Xobeloot]

So... as you guys know, I was recently traveling quite a bit... Security wasn't much of an issue sans one time where TSA did an explosive swab on my grand then drug-tested my e-juice (laugh)...

All that aside, I did find something quite interesting and figured I'd share for those who have not flown with a reo yet.

When you take off, fly, land... The adjustments in cabin pressure cause the reo to auto-feed. Quite a bit actually! My juice is 90+% vg and it was weeping like a teenager at a Get Up Kids concert.

If you fly with your reo, make sure you bring a couple napkins to wrap around your rm2 or carto, because you will lose a ml or two to the cabin pressure gods!

That is all.

Good tip. I noticed the same thing when the Mrs. and I drove up to the mountains a few months back.

Thank you for this information!

Might help to put your information in this thread also: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/205095-traveling-your-reos.html

It sounds like you need to be a bottle half full guy when you fly


Master of Bassets...and not much else.

I just put an empty bottle on before I board and drip during if needed.

Or half empty.

Every feed system I have ever flown with has this problem. They will all leak, BCC, carto tank, whatever. Only solution is to empty your delivery system.

I once drained 3.5 ml of juice that costs me $20 for 30 mls. Wasn't happy, especially since I ran out while I was gone.

When I recently flew to Washington DC via Amsterdam, I took 1 Reos there and 2 back. Travelled with them in my hand luggage, fully juiced. Each time just after reaching cruising altitude as I took a stealth vape, I got juice into my mouth, which never happens to a Reo normally. The one not used, however, were fine when I checked after landing. My juice is 80PG/20VG. Maybe PG travels better?

 

[Xobeloot]

Not sure on the PG v. VG thing... My guess it's more of a pressure and liquid expansion thing that would happen no matter what the juice.

I missed that thread when I searched Nerak! Will repost there too.

Thanks!

Nevermind. That thread is closed

I don't have a REO yet, but I traveled to Turkey this summer with a generic T4 from Fasttech on top of a Vision Spinner and I had no problems with leaking on the way there or back.

Sorry about that! Some of the older threads were closed. I guess over time they do an automatic close.

I really have nothing to add to this thread, but that cracked me up. I will be stealing that line and passing it off as my own at parties and the such

Like the "yet" in there, Uncle!

Loosen the bottle off just a crack. Enuf the excess air can let go and you won't get an auto feed.

 

[Xobeloot]

^^^Will give that a shot next time!

Haven't flown with my Reos yet, but I did fly with some carto tanks earlier this year. I drained them before I went to the airport.
