I'm new and need some assistance

So do you have to hold the button down to vape, or do you just press it once and it will automatically shutoff.


PS: HOLY CRAP, REOSMODS is literally right down the road from where I live. I live in Sanford Maine, and he lives in Alfred Maine. Literally less than 15 minutes down the road.

You push the button down and hold it when you vape. Some people who want a hotter hit, press and hold it a second or two before they vape.

Send Robert an email and ask if you can come look. He is a very nice man and stands behind his Reos. He made me two custom Reo Woodvils because I wanted them made out of particular woods.

Do the reo grand's or the KGO's use cartomizers?

 

[dearme]

Any PV can use cartos, so, yes.

Here's a summation I wrote on the Reo for someone else..........

You can do anything at all with the Reo. If you want an all day flavor vape with no fuss, put a carto on the Reo and then just squeeze the bottle to keep the carto wet......this is the lazy man's way.......making it a tank carto with the juice supply coming from the bottom instead of being in a tank on top.

Or, if you don't like cartos, you put an atty on the Reo, and just squeeze the bottle every few hits to get a few drops of juice in the atty. You are just feeding it from the bottom instead of dripping from the top....

If you want to test flavors, just manually drip a few drops on an atty and don't squeeze the bottle. You will only taste what you dripped on the atty.

If you want to switch between flavors all day, just put on a new carto filled with whatever flavor you want, and just keep refilling the carto or exchanging the carto with new flavors and just don't squeeze the bottle.

Think of a Reo as a big battery regular mod that you can use anything with. It turns into a bottom feeding all day juice mod only when you want it to, and you can always easily change the bottle for a different all day vape.

Reos are very versatile and will do anything any other big battery mod will do, in addition to being a bottom feeder.

Reos are the most versatile mod out there for 3.7 vaping.

I just ordered the KGO kit with a bunch of goodies to try it out, hopefully I will like it. My wife is going to try the EGO, she smokes maybe a pack a week some times less and is going to give this a try as well.

Hopefully, I will have a nice banner for my signature for my quit date and summation of my progress.

 

[Butters78]

the kgo is great I've had mine for about a week and enjoying it. What's neat about the kgo or ego if you guys worst case scenario hate vaping you're not out that much money wise.. some people here start off paying three times what the set is worth at some mall kiosk haha.

 

[Illini_Coastie]

Ok, I ended up getting a KGO Kit and a Smok Tech EGO LR Kit .

I am very happy, but have been mainly using the Smok Tech kit with the dual coil 1.25 ohm carts due to the amount of vape I get with the combination.

 

[shawnpcnj]

I too have just went back to e-smoking and recommend a tank system. I love my joytech Ego-T plenty of options and ways to modify plus it has a 510 connection to use your old atomizers and carts.

Congratulations on your new PV. Happy Vaping.

In the future if you want to go to variable voltage I suggest the lava tube. I've never owned one personally but a few friends have one an I've seen loads of reviews. From what I hear they are pretty darn near indestructible... Also check out the maxi rough stack . Very simple mod at 3.7 or 6 volts and ha no electronics and is made out of aircraft grade aluminum. So in other words... It is indestructible... For 3.7 volts it uses a larger battery rated at anywhere from 2200 to 3200 mah Wich will give you anywhere from 20 hours to 30 hours of vape time. The switch is also replaceable for about 10 bucks and the mod itself is either 45 or 55 .... Go to MADVAPES.COM for the rough stack, and a bunch of sites sell the lava tube under different names. Hope this helps bra!! Happy Vaping and welcome to ECF!

Ok, I have been using the KGO and the EGO LR kits for almost 2 weeks. My analog smoking has gone from 1.5 packs a day down to 3-4 cigarettes a day. I would really like to give up analogs all together but I need more vapor and the 2 kits that I ordered, aren't quite cutting it. I have also noticed that the single coil cartomizers don't quite cut it as well and that I need the dual coil cartomizers. The 3-4 cigarettes that I am smoking, are the ritual cigarettes, and are the first one in the morning, and the ones after meals. I have tried just vaping in place of my first cigarette in the morning and after meals, but it is apparent that I need more vapor to replace the analog.
Also, I have become quite fond of RY4, and is currently my favorite (from Vape Big). I am about to order some Acid Blondie later today (my favorite cigar) and give that a try.

Now, I am not sure which combination I should attempt next to create more vapor. After much reading, I am assuming my next step should be Variable Voltage such as the ProVari or the LavaTube. However, I am not clear on cartomizers. Do I need LR cartomizers such as the 1.5 ohm dual coil or the or the high resistance single coil cartomizers to produce more vapor?

Also, can somebody explain TH? I am unsure of the exact defination. Does TH refer to "harshness"? Can a TH be smooth?

All help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for helping me quit analog smoking.

What PG/VG percentage are you using? If all you need to be satisfied is more vapor, you can get that just by ordering a higher percentage of VG in your eliquid, or just adding a few drops of VG to the eliquid you already have. You can buy VG at Walmart or a pharmacy.

 

[Illini_Coastie]

Currently using a ratio of 60/40 (PG/VG) at 24mg.

 

[Illini_Coastie]

Also, if I choose to do so, can I use a tank system with a VV? Which tank system seems to have proven itself over time that can be used on a ProVari or a LavaTube? I have read many posts about the nightmares associated with tank systems that leak badly.

 

[dearme]

Well, there are 3 kinds of tanks.

The tank referred to in Ego-T is a larger cartridge. It requires using an atty. There are lots of reports of leaks with this system.

Carto Tanks. These use a carto with a punched hole inside a polycarbonate tube. These are wonderful and wick eliquid into the carto automatically. You can get 3.5ml, or a 5ml tank if you use longer cartos. You can use single coil or double coil cartos.

I always use Boge single coil 3.0 cartos in a 3.5 ml tank on the Provari. I don't like double coils so can't comment on those.

The third type of tanks are x-large clear tube cartos which use a different type of wicking system than the Boges. These are called CEs, but also go by various other names. I only tried them once and didn't like them as they burnt my juice. I almost always vape light fruit flavors so that might have been the problem. I never gave them another try.

TH is that burning sensation you get in the back of your throat when you inhale. I don't get much TH from my eliquids and prefer it that way. TH almost exclusively comes from the nic in your eliquid. I vape 24mg without much TH from my preferred juices, so the juice you use to vape also has an effect on TH.

Higher PG percentage will also give you more TH. VG gives you more vapor so it's a balancing act to get what you prefer.

 

[SeanO'Connell]

Ce2's are wonderful if they are in a polycarb tank. Look up the stone tank for that. Cartomizer tanks tend to not leak at all look up the lil momma/ big daddy tank or the dct map tank

I used an ego for a long time then I got the vv batt for it and it went to 4.2v and that was cool but now I use box mods at 7v. For a small one I have seen a lot of good reviews on the blu. And on the volt if you get on YouTube there are a lot of video reviews for almost any ecig or mod out there

 

[Illini_Coastie]

ok, I have a question. I cannot decide between the LavaTube or the ProVari.

Can someone explain the advantages vs. disadvantages of both, please?

 

[Illini_Coastie]

Never mind, I found the information I needed....

Congrats on cutting down smoking.
