Ooohhh we are such enablers here. :facepalm: No wait - you pretty much did that one yourself! :p

Couppla loose ends department:

Ok, maybe a loose thread. As Raynman said, to fit a button cover on you put that piece of string in the 'lil bag over the switch first, then press the button cover in place. That locks the cover on but still allows for removal if a repair is ever needed. Trim the excess string off with some of those bitsy nail scissors that you wimminey folk always hide from us guys folk. Not using the thread can result in the button cover resting too low on the button and interfere with firing. And falling off and rolling to the back of the 'fridge if you drops your Reo. So no, the button covers aren't really hot-swappable as such. Super gluing a button cover on? - really bad idea.

Flats or button top badderies is fine. Only difference might be a slightly different feel to the switch throw with a flat top - no big deal. As always - respect the limits of your battery of choice and build accordingly.

Since it sounds like you got your order in on this side of the PayPalGate changes... Tracking will be assigned via your PayPal account, so check in there to get your tracking number. Will show up in the transaction details once it's been assigned. If you have a secure mail box you can get a slip at the Postal Orifice to fill out that, in effect, signs for the package in advance and allows it to be left if you won't be there.

Not that we're being pushy or anything :rolleyes: but you may want to check in here to get a custom avatar after your Reo arrives. If not, it's just fun as all hell to see what DoogieTony comes up with for people. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/562575-free-custom-reo-avies-banners.html Like this one:

"Wonderland" huh? You wouldn't happen to be in very, very close proximity to me in Marblehead? :D

Purple! WooWoo! Do you still think you can keep it away from hubs after he tries it? (Being that it's purple and all that...)

I've been obsessing for two months about my Purple Lady :p or shall I say the Lady Purple Grand
Knowing me if I see a piece of dental floss I'd try to floss my teeth or somethin' with it

I can't wait to see what they can come up with for my banner or even an avatar. :)

Thanks about the postal info. I've been known to tape a sign to my mailbox so they have to come to the door.
I've also tried to convert my smoker mail man and made him juice.
The mail lady I've had to chase down to get my vape mail from her... She was just 2 doors down I didn't tackle her promise :)

Wonderland is a name I made up for home... My nephew was making up names for places on Facebook

Work was known as "The Firey Depths of He**"
I'm in Kentucky been here most of my life :)

Hubbs can get his own... He's prob gonna end up with one of my DNA's when I get my
Lady of Purple Goodness :) if... He's nice... I'm just sayin...

Congrats. You are destined to vaping happiness. :)

I can't wait! I'm more excited about my Reo than my ProVari... Shhh... Don't tell them....

I'll behave Rick! You meant food ofc.

Wish HRH would make her own coils.

T

I had to learn Hubbs wasn't a smoker when I quit. He quit old school with a patch... I almost put a hurt in' on him...

Congratulations! You are going to love your new Reo. When I go back and forth between the Reo and tube mods, I keep trying to squonk the tubes.

Hehe, I've been using my Cana/Chana DNA 30's for about the last month or two...

Honestly, sometimes hubby and I sit in the den, load up the drippers 80/20 and fog up the entire room! Blahaha :)
I usually like my tugboats around .6-.7 Ω

I don't know if you asked yet but with the new switch & parts you are getting in your Grand you are good down to about 0.2 ohm before "overdoing it" might collapse a battery spring.

You know you can wrap a Reo too? J-wraps has 'em.

Yeah, I did the Jwraps thing, that what wraps are on my DNA's.
Not gonna need one for my Reo... I'm the first in my family to get one, they can be jealous of me now.
JK, I love my family as long as we all still vape that's all that matters!

Thank you! I'll tell ya, you guys are reading my mind.
I was talking to my nephew about my Reo today, telling him about it being a mech and having the upgrade kit on it.

He was telling me he likes to vape at 0.2, so, for the last 2 hours I've been looking to see how low they can go...
I came by my thread again, there's the answer right there in the thread I started.
Thanks for the answer, I keep telling my mech mod monster cloud blowing nephew he just needs a Reo...

Welcome to the Ville Harleybarbie, good peeps here, and Trunker ;), but you've found that out already :)

JK about Trunker, he's good peeps too :)

Everyone's been so great! They even know the answers to the questions I haven't thought of yet.
Ok guys if somebody can give me those winning lottery numbers I promise I'll share!
I only need enough to go to nursing school without working

Hey gang!
I'm hopefully on the way to owning my very first LP Reo Grand, and becoming a Reo-Villager :)
I've been trying to order off the site and it won't log me in... I had my cart all ready and ... Nothing...
I've emailed the site and hope I get a return email to tell me what I need to do... I also PM'ed Redeyedancer (I think he's Rob?)
I've read PayPal won't be taking payments soon.
I'm so in love with a Purple LP Grand with an LP RM 5!
:)
I've been dripping on my 2 Tugboats and my 2 DNA Chana/Cana mods since about 2 weeks ago.
It's so hard to go back to my Kayfuns!
Dripping is awesome.
I'm hoping to be ordering my Reo ASAP!
It will be so nice to squoak (did I spell it right?) instead of drip, drip, drip...
I'm so tired of messing with that!
I'm so excited to get one!!

Welcome Harleybarbie! Get ready for your other equipment to uh,.....start gathering dust?:D

I have a question..
Allen screws or Phillips screws on atty's the good, bad, and best for a semi ok coil builder? Which one holds up better?

Im really liking that the RM 5, read somewhere it's good for big clouds... I'm kinda of a lung hitter now since it gives me more of a sensation of smoking, not just nicotine, I'm at 6mg and I do like playing the clouds ;)
See, I'm the cool aunt :) I'm going to get tons of questions on my new device

NM, I see you have already ordered.:)

How low has not been set in stone yet. Really depends on how long you hit it. The springs act like a fuse, Heat cause them to soften and collapse. As the amp draw increases it produces more heat in the spring. Lower ohm coils pull more amps. A hard short draws such high amps the spring completely collapses right away.

With a coil somewhere around .2 ohms doing long hits will produce enough heat to soften the spring and it will partially collapse and needs to be replaced, short hits don't seem to be a problem.. I've read of one full collapse spring running below .2 and a soft spring around .2.

I know plenty of people are between .25 and ,3 but have not read about many pushing down to .2 or lower.
