OK... I'm ready for the flood of reonaughts! Hehe

Seriously though. I've seen them online, and I know what they are about, but I don't think it would fit my vaping style, do you disagree?
I drip all day. I've got several clone attys, but mostly stick with my tobh with a 0.8 dual coil builds on my hana clone, or my 454 big block built at around 0.6 dual coil on my 4nine mech. I switch between 3-5 juices pretty regularly.
I do put my kayfun on the 4nine with an adv in it for a stealthy out and about set up, and it gets occational use around the house, but I definitely wouldn't call it my go to setup except in rare situations.

So what do you think? Any one else a flavor switcher like me using a Reo as their go to device?
Like I said, I have a few juices I can Vape all say, but I prefer to change it up quite a bit.
Thanks in advance for your help!

I change the juice in my Reo for my ADV which fluctuates between Custards Last Stand, Frenilla, or H1N1 (sometimes Strawnilla). Once somtimes twice a day. I also carry my Provari with 2 different Ibtankeds for flavor changes. Usually Pluid in one and somthing fruity in the other.

As far as changing the flavor in the Reo its a snap and only takes me about 5-6 minutes. Take off RM2 and rinse, pull wick, dry burn coil, and rewick. Take bottle out and pour back in whatever juice bottle it came from (yes, im a rebottler, and I dont care!!) Wash out bottle and blow through 510 to get excess juice out. Refill with desired flavor and put it back together and back to vaping nirvana!!

Its a snap!

Yes. That's the short answer.
I was dripping and thought it was the be all end all, clouds or flavour.
Got the Reo because I do a pile of driving and am away from home a lot in the evenings and weekends (not so much in the winter.) You can build anything you want with the right atty. I have a 1.2ohm single coil in my Cyclone right now and it has excellent flavour, dare I say close to a Kayfun.
I also have been known to build 28 gauge twisted dual coils in the rm4 at .3 ohm.
Every other mod is dead to me.

Oh, Hectic. Get ready for what will ensue :)

Yup, you're a perfect candidate for a reo (and I've seen you around the boards, so know a little about your vaping style). You like mechs, you're knowledgeable about building and atties, and you like to drip. Swapping juices is simple in a reo - just change the bottle and maybe clean the feeding tube. All other atty transition things would be the same (dunno if you rewick or flush the atty, but whatever you do would be the same with the reo).

Now stand by for the torrent of enablers that is Reoville...

Why what is all this enabling of which you speak? :blink:

Seriously, if you like dripping but want to get rid of the associated hassle then you need a Reo. Turns dripping into a one handed experience. Look at is this way: The Reo Grand comes with a 6 ml feed bottle - how long will that last you before you need to refill? You can leave the house with your Reo, maybe an extra battery depending on how low you build and... that's it. You're good for the day.

ETA: Stealth? A Reo Grand is about the same LxW dimensions as a business card. They aren't as big as you may think when looking at pictures.

Gotta go enable me some dinner.

If you switch flavors that often on your dripper, you probably don't mind a little mix those flavors have on your wick and coils. Or even if you do dry burn or change wicks between flavors, changing the bottle really isn't much of an extra step .. it might just be swapping in extra squonk bottles with the different flavor in em. Your carry extra juices or have them near at least, it wouldn't be any different than having an extra squonk bottle or two or three to swap out rather than your drip bottles....

Another angle if you have a sheer ton of flavors you switch among often: Who says you have to FILL a 6ml bottle?...

:cheers:

I don't re-wick when I change flavors, I just switch bottles. The only wick that would have to be dedicated to one flavor would be the one I'm juicing with Cinnamon Roll. That flavor just doesn't seem to want to leave. With my other flavors (hazelnut, blood orange, 555, etc) after one good squonk to clear out the tube, I get the new flavor taste right away.

You say you like to switch between 3 - 5 flavors? The very best thing would be to buy 3 - 5 Reos. But be careful, after you buy one you will buy another. And another. And another. And so on. It's because of the Porcupine dust that Rob sprinkles them all with. Just don't say I didn't warn you! :D

If in the impossible event you don't like your first Reo, there are about 10,000 people here that will fight to to the death be the one to buy it from you. Do you have any particular color in mind? :)

I'm more of a one flavor all day type, but I love my new Reo. It's everything great about dripping on a mech in one compact package. Think of it as dripping upside down.

Usually I change flavors when I rewick, so I pull the wicks, rinse the atty, rinse the bottle, dry burn, wipe off the feed tube, wipe off the 510 connector, put in new cotton, fill her back up, and vape.

The best part for me is that unlike a dripper, I can use my Reo in the car. I drive for work so that's huge for me.

I'm seriously considering selling both of my Kayfuns, my Provari, and my other mods now.

I think 0.5ohm dual microcoils in my Odin on a Reo Grand seriously might be my perfect vape. now I just need several of them lol.

Mechs are ok.. Not my go to device, but they get the job done well enough.
I enjoy the consistency of regulated devices for my 0.8 builds on my drippers the voltage drop off is really noticeable. At 0.6 ohms the dropoff isn't as noticeable to me until about 3.5 ohms. The Kayfun at 1.2 or so isn't noticeable for me.

As far as my swapping juice process as of now is Vape until the flavor is gone then drip =) the first Vape may have a bit of flavor bleed, but not a ton unless I'm going from a tobacco to a fruit =)

I Change the cotton when the coil gets gunky =) dry burn and rinse the atty then.

Err - you can have one flavour in the Reo bottle and still drip into the atty for flavour changes. That's what i do if someone at work wants the "raspberry smelling one" and i don't feel like vaping it all day!

T

Nothing better than a squonky-drippy to play with flavor combos. Or just take a break from what's in your bottle. No disassembly required.

Enable some dinner.. NICE! Lol

Shoot a picture with it in your hand and another next to a ruler (height) for scale?

Honestly, the biggest hassle I have with dripping is moving liquid from glass to plastic bottles for traveling... And that's not going to change with a reo.. Hehe
Squeezing juice into a dripper is not a problem as often as I switch flavors.

Thanks for the post!

It's a mech, it's a dripper, it's everything! Fill it up, vape all day, switch bottles when you want a new flavor.. What else do we need to say.

I was reluctant at first. Just read the posts, most of us have a lot of great looking paper weights on a shelf somewhere now because we have reos.

That is all.
