Hard to say really. But from my point of view, if one is looking for the best vape then there is an implication that one has not found it yet. Myself, I am not looking for the best vape at all since I got the Reo. It just suits my needs completely. ymmv though.

If you are interested in RDAs I would say that the Reo is definitely the most convenient way to drip.

That's deep.

I had three Provari's, the ProVari itself is sturdy and reliable. I bought a Kayfun and thought it couldn't get better...until it was time to fill said Kayfun. Sometimes it went fine, other times it was a pain in the ..... I went to a vape meet, someone put a rubber tip on their Reo so I could try it, I was sold on taste alone. They took a few minutes to show me how the Reo worked. The next week I bought one. One by one my ProVari's found new homes to fund more Reo's. I have sold or given away everything except my Reos and RM2's. Reos are compact, sturdy, and convenient. It has actually been very liberating not wanting to try every new tank, clearo, or mod that comes along chasing the ultimate vape.... I found it :)

First off, I'm not going to say that my Provari is the best thing since sliced bread. You can look at my sig and see I have had a lot of nice stuff.

I currently vape a KFL+ on a Provari mini. I'm always looking for the best mod for ME.

Being subjective, why would a Reo be better than the above combination? Or would it complement my current (i.e. should I own both) combo?

.... I have a Corvette, do I need a Ferrari too? :ohmy:

This. Wow.

It's just changed to stalking Reos Mods. :D

That being said, I've no plans to get rid of my Provari, it's just too nice. But, I am not looking to get more of them.......

I am running my REO along side an MVP2 with KF3.1. I use the REO with my ADV and my MVP for when I need a shot of ChocoPeppermint. That will change tomorrow when her brother arrives in the mail. I have the LP, so if I want, I can pop my KF on her and vape the other flavor to get my fix and cleanse the pallet, then pop the BF back on. It is all apples to oranges. I do love the fact that I can bath my REO in the UC if I want that straight from the dentist clean feeling. Try that with a VV/VW. :vapor:

I look at it like this a ProVari is a
Personal
Eletronic
Nicotine
Inhalation
System
A Reo is a box
Which would you rather put your lips to?

You know, the ProVari folks are a lot nicer when someone uses a REO. just sayin.....
I wasn't a box mod person up front, but I'm a dripper and that meant I had to give the REO a try. I'm happy with both.

I have two of them but I use one of my 6 Reos. just sayin'

Then I'd hope you'd be able to give more constructive comments. I have no problem with someone saying I had a ProVari, got a REO and sold the ProVari to buy another REO because...... That's fair and helpful to someone considering a REO.

I didn't mean to start a war. I'm a bit cranky this morning. I have trigeminal neuralgia (google it, it is the worst) and it's acting up this morning. It hurts to eat, talk, swallow, breath, wash my face, brush my teeth, etc.

Edit: fixed ProVari coz Raynman was right.

It was meant as a joke and only that. I say the same for any tube mod not just ProVari. I'm very sorry for the TN problem I hope medication will help and surgery is not needed. Please don't take offense to this but you should capitalize the V also. Have a great day and I hope things go better for your TN my friend.

That's not good, hope your flare up gets better! We don't really have issues with Provari or their people it's just good natured joking, remember guys tend to be relentless is nailing each other to the wall, it's a game we love to play.

Thanks. The doc says I can gradually increase the dose of meds, but I want them now! waah.

I realized it was probably a joke after I walked away for a bit. However, mama's gotta give you guys the evil eye to keep in line too, right?

Sorry to catch that it was a joke late. I went back and edited my posts to fix the V, good catch. Thanks.

I'm so glad I gave up cigarettes nearly 7 months ago. If I didn't have the REO in hand, the stress and pain would drive me back to smoking. There's not a chance of that happening now. The REO & my ADV can take me to a happy place. Now, the trick is to get my meds to take the :censored: nerve to the same place.

You guys! Now you're making me feel uncomfortable sharing my experience! But here it is anyways...

I've had a vv twist that made me try a provari. I ended up having 4 provaris at one point with a total of about 8 or 9, with the others selling for accessories(tanks and such) and given to friends. The provari is very high quality and well built. The limitation is on the tank. I used to be tied to my protanks with stock coil but was never happy. It wasn't the provari's fault, it was the tank. Modified my protank bases, recoiled my own heads, wicked with cotton and it was night and day. I was happy! Then the battle was convenience. Re-filling juice, carrying a backup coil, and worst was cleaning and recoiling/rewicking the coils. It seems like I was never contented.

Then I tried a reo grand. With help of super_x, jifjif, mundy, jc, redeye and a lot more people, I am content so far with what I have. But never thought I'd get it from a mechanical. Right now I am eyeing a vv reo to try-I know this sounds like I am still looking after saying I found contentment, but it is just to look for something better that I MIGHT be missing out on. What I focus on is the fact that I "switched". From provari/tanks to reo grand. If I ended up liking the VV reo, I'd have it talk crap to my grand! LOL!
