I got a Silver Anodized Reo Grand VV as my 3rd Reo. I have a few questions though. How do you clean the VV Reo, like the feeding tube and the contacts?

Congrats! Post some pics when you get time. I just squirt Everclear using a eyedropper from the top of the connector, angling the bottom tube outward into the sink. Damp cloth on body inside and out and thats about all you can do with a VV. Maybe someone else can add something.

Nice Steven . I have the same beast. I keep it away from running water except to VERY CAREFULLY run some hot water down in the bottom 1/4 of the inside to rinse out any dust that gets by the spring. As you know, no water by the top of the mod. I also wipe the outside with a wet paper towel.

Like brand new after that and no noalox.

Congrats bro. What do you think of that bad boy?

The color is awesome man!
My 18350 batteries should be here tomorrow so I can't try it yet lol.
I love that you can see the tumbled yet the silver protects it.
Do you clean the tube or just let it be?

To clean the tube - i'll hear 50 different answers to this ranging from hosepipes to compressed air.

How lazy are you (i'm bone idle)?

run water thru it from top to bottom - you may use a tap pouring in from the top of the drip well and wait a bit till it comes out the bottom of the tube. That works.

I just suck up a huge mouthful of water and imagine my Reo had a heart attack and i am the poor sucker waiting for the paramedics to change the battery.

For some reason i sing "staying alive"

That works with the VV?
I don't want to get it wet and ruin something.

You can fill the bottle with water or alcohol and push the liquid through the feed system over the sink of course

of course - but i like that wheel turned as far to the left as it goes when cleaning a vv - cos it affects the speed i sing at!

too far to the right becomes Bee Gees - scary stuff!
