Got my Mini Today

[strprswpr]

This thing is beautiful....small, well built. Simply amazing. The rattling door bothers me but I fixed already. I wrapped some electrical tape around the battery....enough that I have to work the door on so it fits tight. I may have to replace the tape once in a while but it's tight as a drum now. Now all I need is a charger and I can fire her up. I have batteries but no charger.

batteries usually come charged

I guess I give her a shot then.

Congrats to you strpswpr, the Reo is great and the 14500's charge on a regular TS-001 charger as well. The tape works great and no problems with the door for me either. Join the Reosmods lounge for more.

Vape coma?

Well I started with a LR atty....don't like that very much....Threw on a LR Boge and walah....LOVE IT. I filled up the carto first. Every once in a while a little peush on the bottle and the carto stays wet. I like it a lot. This is going to get a lot of use. I'm gonna try putting a band of heat shrink tubing on the battery to fix the door....My OCD won't allow me to use electrical tape for long. So far the Reo Mini is getting an A from me. Oh no......Now I gotta get a Grand and a Woodville.

stick you a piece of weatherstripping (sticky) behind the battery.

 

[strprswpr]

I took a piece of 1/2" heat shrink tubing, stretched it a little so I could get it over the battery....from the bottom of the battery I only let it go up 3/4 of the way. Shrunk it carefully on the battery without overheating it. It's perfect....I have to work the door on with a little pressure and it's tight, snug, no rattle and there is no danger of the door sliding off. Perfect. What I do is as I'm sliding the door on I put a little pressure on the battery so the door slide up. It's actually putting pressure in the door from the inside.

Vape coma?

I think I'm gonna ape myself into a coma AND nicotine poisoning with this thing.

Like a new born baby. Congratulations!

I went through that two weeks ago and I'm still a proud papa. Like the drip shield too. After two weeks though, I discovered and threw in two 14250 high drain 3.7v. Holy mother of vapor!

You only get about 12-15 good hits before the bats sheet the bed, but, with a lr306 and thick, goopy, sticky sweet 24mg juice, she rips my head off. The throat hit is like inhaling on a burning candy cone. Reminds me of rock concerts back in the 70's

I can only do that a few times, then I go back to the 14500aw's and vape normal ry4pg

I am a conservative now after all...

 

[Torqueguy]

The heat shrink is genius
Thanks

I think I gotta get a couple of those 14250's just to try it out.
