I'd like to hear from non ProVari owners if they get this kind of customer service after their mod is OVER a year old? I think that's the question that truly should be asked, IMO.

Not surprisingly, you can expect this level of customer service from Rob at Reosmods as well.

I would try a REO cuz I read a lot of positive things about them but not sure I can master squonking. Tried a tester w/an Aurora tank and failed miserably. Kept flooding it.

They aren't even remotely similar. I had an Aurora and also flooded it all the time and sold it to one of the B&M employees who wanted to play with it. With a RM2 on my REOS, over squonked juices go back in the bottle.

I own a Provari and several SuperT mods........ Both top notch in the customer service department:thumbs: The REO looks like a great little device.... I am a 4 1/2 year direct dripper and might want to try a bottom feeder out....REO owners how well does that feeder bottle work? Does it leak? Does it flood? REO build quality? ect.............

It can leak if you over tighten the bottle and the o-ring in the bottle gets over tightened, but that's a quick fix (loosen it a bit). Build quality? I baby mine because I'm trying to keep the finish un-marred, but they go swimming, get run over by cars, fall off hoods of cars going Highway speeds, dropped in mud, etc. Dusted/cleaned up and keep on vaping. They do need cleaning every few weeks (hot water, dish detergent, air dry) and a little noalox put on the firing pin. Not much different than maintenance on the Provari (other than the hot water and dish detergent bit). But routine maintenance is also recommended for the Provari as well.

I also hear that the REO is top notch,,,,I'd love to have one, but I'm a bit afraid of the squonk,,,,,and I'm so not into rebuilding,,,,,,

I might give it a try sometime, though,,,,,,,

Sorry, really not trying to turn this into a REO thread. ;-)

But, you can purchase pre-made coils online, or you can just use a carto or bridgeless atomizer on a REO as well. As for the squonking, you get that down pretty quickly.

Cartos can be cleaned and that adds some life.

Reducing stuff for the land fill as much as possible seems like a good thing to me.

Not really a good point for cartos, rebuildables contribute considerably less to landfills than cartos. Unless however, when you finally do throw away your carto you rip the guts out and recycle the stainless tubes somewhere.

On a side note, I would love to purchase a new DNA30 mod for the daily rotation but as with the DNA20 chip as well, the only deal breaker for me is STILL no reverse battery protection. I do a lot of night driving and when the battery needs changing while driving, I have caught myself putting 18650 batteries in the wrong direction... Am I the only one that finds it alarming that we aren't automatically putting this simple tech into the new boards? I love the innovation of the DNA chips but I won't buy a chip that doesn't have RBP period unless the mod itself is designed with it's own RBP.
The NexGen Futura also has mechanical reverse battery protection.

Bad...Did you happen to notice the charger? will that be OK for the type batteries I need?
I guess I also need a recomendation for the right kind of flash light for THE BATTERY PURCHASE I WASTED!! LOL
Don't know that much about flashlights honestly. :blush:

The charger is actually a pretty good one. Its an Xtar SP2. You can read about its features here: Xtar SP2 - Battery Chargers
