This may be lost on the majority of REOnauts but I was bored in between classes today and just threw a rather funny button cover on my REO.

This is in the locked position.

This is to show it turns freely.

Allows just enough clearance to fire without fear of button mashing.:laugh:

Still not finished just a rough mock up, not completely sold on the idea but my actual button cover idea is in the mail and will be much cleaner and classic.

AWESOME customer service from Rob! White door arrived less time than the REO took....

I am sure everyone is a little preoccupied with the woodies right now.

I have only had a week with this mod but the ease of use is phenomenal. The Cyclone/AFC has been performing worlds apart from the YK1 fasttech Clone I originally purchased. The AW IMR 1600mah batteries are exactly how everyone has preached, I have been using VCT3s and MNKEs but the performance drop off on the AWs is much more noticeable :thumbs up:

This weekend I will be converting my IGO-T for BF so I will update with some progress shots of modifying for BF and get you REOnauts some under the hood shots of my builds.

Congrats .... 4 months to find your way to the best is pretty darn good ....... Now what you gonna do with all that free time you used to spend searching ???

Free time= time with SO. My wife vapes also but is happy with the eGo and Kanger T3S setup, I rebuild her coils every couple weeks but that's about it. This means she uses a lot less liquid than me so I am a bit jealous but maybe after seeing my REO I might get her a mini...she is a fan of blue...hmmm:D

Welcome to Reoville GreatestUnknown!

Which part of the Bay Area? I'm up in Sonoma County, just up the road a bit :)

I am in Contra Costa County currently, the wife an I are looking at homes but Sonoma County is not on the list.. I look forward to transferring to a 4 year institute for the fall of 2015 and if we do not stay in Contra Costa County I believe we will be looking at the South Bay Area for a home.

thanks for dropping by man...

NP man. I was only able to catch the last few minutes but it looked like a very interactive format.

Awesome looking REO. The button is epic! Love that cyclone too matches great. Haven't seen that color cap. Where'd you pick that up?

With the white door I think I need to find a Clone Trooper Lego

I purchased the Cyclone with AFC from intaste.de they offered it in blue, black and red

They are a German Vape site but they dropped the VAT from the price and the shipping was through FedEx. Ordered on Feb 15th and received it on the 19th. The AFC is Aluminum but I have been running it with 0.7ohm dual coil setup and have not had issues with a "hot" top cap, warm but not any warmer than a 0.4ohm setup on my IGO-T

Welcome! And your Reo is PHENOMINAL!


It has been a journey full of discovery, adventure and success.

I have been vaping since November in an effort to eliminate the unhealthy smoking habit. With a little bit of quick research via Google-Fu I picked an eGo starter kit from Apollo, immediately curbed my need to smoke but sent me on a quest for "the vapor."

Intrigued by how my eGo kit stacked against the competitors I joined ECF and began reading, researching and realizing that although I had not made a bad purchase it might not have been exactly what I was looking for.

December led me to the woes of FastTech and after purchasing a Nemesis clone and a few cheap RDAs I waited for the "vapemail." While at the mercy of China's torture system, a.k.a Singapore Post, I trained myself in the way of coil building with such mentors as super_X_drifter, pdib, xobeloot, ChrisEU, Jerms and countless other "ohm masters." Unbeknownst to me they were preparing me for the next leg of my "vape quest."

ENTER THE MOD LAIR
(known as REOville)

Robert O'neil "the Mod Master" has created a beast of a personal vaporizer, transported across the land from the magical porcupine forest to reside now in Northern California's Raider Nation! I am still communicating with the creator of this creature, who from this day forward will be referred to as "DeVille."

IMG_20140224_192426_933.jpg

Thank you all for reading and welcoming me into this wonderful guild, I am off to create a new signature and tame "DeVille"

More pictures to come as the days follow and I begin to fine tune my vape.

So like everyone here knows, one REO is never enough. I am going through a divorce and facing legal issues (of my own doing stemming from the divorce) and even with all the stress I never waivered from my REO. In spite of those obstacles I have made it 6 months without a cigarette and decided to treat myself, so I purchased a new REO along with some new goodies.

Enter "Brougham"

IMG_20140521_193103_078_zpsf10befbf.jpg


LP REO Grand in Silver Hammer Tone and White Door w/ Aluminum Button Cover
Atomic RDA by MCV Running Dual Twisted 28 ga Kanthal A1 metered @0.25Ω .055" ID
Cheap Muffler Style Drip Tip
Powered by (1) Sony VTC5 30A 2600 MaH
6ml Bottle filled with Rise by Ruthless E-Juice @6mg

The jury is still out on the Atomic, it is not bad but I was almost expecting more but considering I just received it today, modded it for BF and threw in pretty much the same setup I have been running on a smaller chamber RDA it has done well. I should be getting in some 22, 24, and 26 ga to play with tomorrow and will set to unleashing the Atomic's "potential" (thanks Russ). For now both me and "Brougham" are pleased....:D

Nice looking set of lps :)

They are masterpieces from the Mod Master hisself! I absolutely love this hammer tone finish. The texture along with the appearance are outstanding. You have excelled with my latest addition Rob.

I cant seem to put "Brougham" down and I think its making "DeVille" jealous because I am also trying to determine how much longer vape time I have on the VTC5s over the VTC4s
