Thanks Mudflap, I'm mostly worried that he will steal it from me. We both switched at the same time, he's still using everything from his first Riva kit.. I've been buying new things on a daily basis. The way it stands right now, we have to last not smoking for a year and not purchase another thing from this moment on.

I'm very excited, can't wait to get it in my hand!

Uh oh!

Be forewarned. After you put on a black jumbo dual-coil cartomizer with that red tip he WILL steal it.

And after that he will speak in a Gollum-like voice muttering something about his precious.

Prepare now!

Thanks Justice! My husband has been stealth vaping in a corner behind a door at work so I'm going to tell him that he'll look way too conspicuous with it. If that doesn't work, I'll buy him smaller pants so it won't fit in his pocket.

Who-dat, I got lucky tonight, my husband's friend asked if we would order him a kit and juice, so he's getting a back-up for the back-up I already bought and a 30 ml bottle of juice that ordered and can't stand to look at after finishing the first one, so I'll have $50 back tomorrow. He'll be my second convert - my first didn't have any money (but always found enough for a pack of cigs lol)

LMAO!

I haven't let him try my "precious" cartos yet, he's still using an attty/carts. Do you think I'll do okay with Boge cartos until I can order some of those? I have LR and regular (and I've already spent a small fortune!).

That's outstanding! I'm still viewing this as a hobby, when I deduct the money I would have spent on smokes, I'm not that far behind. So, I've been pretty aggressive in giving away or heavily-discounting the stuff I've outgrown. A lot of it wound up being bartered. For example, I gave my neighbor a big 510 setup (3 batts, bunch of cartos, juice, etc.), in exchange for watching my dog & feeding my chickens, when I was traveling. He's now been off the smokes for 3 weeks. And there are the couple of buddies that picked up Bar/Food-tabs, for an outgrown ego or 510. I've also suggested e-cigs to a a few people, who have used it to quit. But there's something about springing it on a smoker who had no intention of quitting, and watching them do it accidentally. Yeah, good all-around....

Absolutely. Do you know what ohm rating they have? In my opinion, 2-2.5ohm are the best at the voltage of the Reo. The dual-coils just have a nice taste.

You've almost got a congregation, that's amazing! I just ordered two FS 510 kits from myPVshop because they were under $20 each. They'll be sitting here waiting for my friends who have been saying "I'd do that too, but it doesn't look like a cigarette." Those comments were about my pink Riva, I can't imagine what they're going to say when I pull out the Grand. I've never tried a standard 510 yet, but I get the appeal for a beginner. As it stand now, I'm going through 5 ml of juice a day just trying to keep myself away from smoking, so even the Riva batteries are in continual rotation.

I have 2.0, and regulars, I'm not sure what they are, maybe 2.8? I have been reading about the dual-coil and want to try them, but I had just ordered more Boge before I knew about them. I am not very good with cartos, I see people saying they make them last a month, the best I've done is get 10 ml through one. Duals are next on my list - thanks!

Great present to self....:D

Thanks! I feel so lucky to have gotten my order through. I wanted a mini, but they disappeared in an instant.

For my 1 month anniversary, bought my purple/purple Grand.
For my 2 month anniversary, bought my Woodvil.
For my 3 month anniversary, bought my black/black Grand.
Money saved: 0
Vaping my REO's: Priceless

They look beautiful together too. Congratulations! I will be looking forward to seeing what you get for your 4th month anniversary.

I love it! It's perfect for this chain-vaper going through 5 ml of juice a day. I have a thing about boxes, I drive a toaster (Red Kia Soul).

My husband and kids think I'm insane. My 10 year old said she's going to tell people I smoke a walkie-talkie.

What am I going to do with all the time I am saving by not pulling off my drip tip and dripping into a carto and unscrewing batteries and wiping juice off the connection?

Thanks for the awesome invention Robert :) I was wondering if you were a left-hander - I am one and its perfect for how I hold it and where my thumb hits the bottle.

I am thrilled, but not surprised that you love it. Now for the REO addiction!!!!! Tell your 10 year old that walkie-talkies come in pairs! Congrats!
