Battery lasts forever and you can charge it on a cell phone charger if need be. Can also swap around the cord and use it to charge your cell phone. Pretty versatile device, consistent performance. Mine also has a skull on it which gives extra points in my book. I had 2 of them but sold one. My mod/pv collection is getting out of hand. I lost count if how many I have here, plus I think 2 more I've ordered and a couple out on loan to new vapers.

YES!!! I have two MVPs and I simply adore them!!

I know, I felt like sweetab always would try and get us back on track LOL. She'd be like sooo what are we vaping? Haha OOPS too busy talking about reos and dogs and glass bottles! Oh well, I much prefer it that way ;)



I know! I like y'all. I"m still down with, I think yorkiegirls idea, of us all meeting up at a vape bash sometime. And the best gourmet e-juicers matching t-shirts hahaha.

Hey Gourmet- a likes! Happy you started a new thread. The other thread was close to getting shut down. I noticed how strict they are with shutting down threads that don't stay on topic. I tried to keep steering us in the direction to keep it open. I totally understand the need to chit chat too. This is a great way to do both. :toast: I'm packing for a needed vacation to Mexico......

Too hot of a vape and not moist enough. I prefer something with a cooler temp and a stiffer draw. Most people that I see that like dripping like a warm/hot airy draw... which is not my thing. The flavor is never quite right with it either. Could be just me. Could be what I've been using. (cheap clone RBAs) I also can't use cotton... so that, to me, automatically makes dripping a PITA
i totally get what you mean. i see a lot of reo users drill out their air holes for more airy draws. that's not me. too fancy lol. the vape is a little warmer, but with higher ohms could be resolved. i found i liked the level of warmth i'm getting from my build though. too airy and the flavor did taste different.
oh no, why no cotton?! there's still plenty of people who use silica on reos. or some of that more fancy stuff lol
i wasn't as concerned about testing ohms/batteries as i probably should have been when i got my reos. lol. i just check my ohms when i make the coil, and carry on. the spring is kind of the fail safe.
i'm a total reo fan girl, i admit. but i'm also wise enough to realize that they aren't for everyone. :)

You can get a vv reo, and after you find your perfect-for-you coil build, you'll hardly test them anymore... I test mine with a multimeter since my junky ecig ohmmeter broke. I only do it one time though, right after i install it, and thats a formality at this point. The sam wire wrapped the same number of times around the same diameter wick is likely gonna be the same every time. Microcoils make it more necessary to test because of shorts, but I'm not into cotton so I dont mess with them.

i do micro coils, but i'm not sure really if it makes a difference. they come out good, so i'm hesitant to change it up lol
the VV's aren't made anymore. you can still buy them on the classies the the like though.

Well I'm trying to get a 30 ml stocked for each of my top 10 juices and I don't have one for the following:
Naked vanilla - virgin vapor
Numbers- seduce juice
Fifth Rank- five pawns

Only issue is seduce only ships plastic which I want to get out of and nothing else there I want to re-order except people's vape cosmonaut which I have a fair amount left. Probably hold off I guess on this one.

Got my Ahlusion feedback email today so perhaps I'll try a few more from them. Thinking cherry cola and one of the mimosas. Anyone try these? I'm hoping my Ahlusion experience gets better because I'm not getting a warm fuzzy yet. Perhaps once they get my feedback and modify juices for my setup and preferences. I'm giving it one more shot but I need them to wow me! I did order some weird stuff I wouldn't normally from them the first go around.

That fifth rank from Five Pawns was so good it immediately goes in my top 10 so I need a 30ml bottle, even if I can only vape it for 10 min before it gives me a headache, lol.

I hear the Pomegranate Mimosa is good. I can not say enough good things about Shipwreck if you like a coconut tobacco. Just plain awesome, full of flavor, TH and loads of vapor.

That is exactly how I feel. Every time I have dripped (mostly just to try something) I always feel like I am not getting enough of a stiff hit. I am pretty happy with a mod and a aero protank and thanks to Cranky and Suspect's help with purchase advice I will be moving into an RBA soon.

Do we have any Provarians in here or what? All I'm seein' in Reo worship. loL

Provarian here. And I love it. 3.7 volts on my provari vs my itaste or nemesis...provari is a powerhouse. Completely different vape.


I added myself to pdib's run list because I get why I would like a reo type of mod. The reo just isn't visually doing it for me or I def would have had one by now.

Fact is, as with everything else in my life...I am a variety girl. There will never be 'one' constantly perfect setup or flavor for me.

Yikes. Scary proposition because I use both daily.

Probably my Provari, only because I can use any kind of tank or dripper on it. Some juices are better in different toppers. I need variety in my world. If I only got to keep one device period, it would be my magneto clone.

Please, no one make me actually choose, I'm sweating just thinking about it.

Cranky-is that because of the magnetic switch? I am looking for my next one

I liked the Blue Clove, and the Black Bull. Chola was in 4th place from the original samples. But, Preston send me samples of a few new flavors last week. I just need to find time to go through them. I get a lot of samples, and trying to make it through Coval first. I got some unsolicited samples from Reign Drops last week, not sure what that's about.
Love this vendor-what are some of your other favorites from here?


For Stronger flavors: Mint melt, Paradise, then Gingersnap & Orange Spice were very strong-clove perhaps? A little strong for me but great flavor However some of my favorites besides the Strawlemon Delight are: Blueberry Cheesecake-its addicting!, Vanilla Berry and Paradise.

Ditto on Gary Clark, Jr Brett! :) I saw him perform at SBYSW in Austin last year. It was a great show, as he's from the Austin area.

Yes, I believe music does make our lives better. Glad to hear you found your passion again with the Dobro. I've got an old CA style fender acoustic guitar, nothing to write home about, but I used to tinker with it more back in college. One of these days I'll pick it up again! Probably when the kids get a bit older.

Hey, if you like blues, have you listened to Gary Clark Jr? If not, check him out. I saw him at Bonnaroo as well and he is quite talented IMO. It was funny, opposite of the other show I described, but just as good of a memory. It was mid day on a dreary Sunday with overcast skies and some real light rain. Perfect day to listen to the Blues! Gary tore it up on that final day of the festival and it was a nice reprieve from the hot TN sun in June.

@Jonathan, if you get one, and use a Kanger tank on it (The stock tank sux), make sure you get an airflow control valve. I would also get better batteries (18350's) than come with the K1000 ePipe kit. Efest purple high drain 18350's to go please! :)
I want one of those Kamry e-pipes, they are too cool lookin. Then I can vape like a hobbit, lmao. Hey, speaking of hobbits, did anyone remember to invite samoletWiseGamgee? I cant remember if I did or not and I emptied my inbox yesterday...
EDIT- I just PM'ed the link to him in case he didnt have it.

I'm talking in general. I don't mind a 1-2 week steep, up to 3, but after that, I'm getting annoyed. Plenty of great stuff out there that I don't have to monkey around with so much.

I honestly get irritated after a 2 week steep
