Rob sells wick and kanthal on his website... 
And Reos are definitely the gold standard of bottomfeeders. No ways around that.
I buy bulk wire and silica wick on eBay mostly though.

Kwin. Sounds like you have good taste. I've never owned a provari but it sure sounds like the best of the tube mods. I wanted to try a bottom feeder and with the quality issues in the world of vaping, I went with a Reo. That was a good choice. I work in construction and I've dropped it several times, no problems. The customer service is great. This thing just does what I want a PV to do. Work every time. All the time.
I'm a dripper and for no fuss no muss dripping, bottom feeders are the way to go.
As far as where to get supply's, I recommend RTD vapor. They will have you covered.

I have both. I think they compliment eachother beautifully. They are both tough and have great build quality. They are like surefire flashlights or benchmade knives. The reo does take practice to really get it working perfect but once you get it's amazazing. The reo is my workhorse and the provari is my race car.
Sup Aceman, since you got both, which setup give you the flavor and cloud of smoke if you use the same type of atty? One of the reason Im branching off to a bottom feeder setup cuz I think I havent experience the best flavor and quantity of smoke that ecig can offer. Maybe becuz Im not using the right atty.
Im planning to get some HH.357 attys, i know alot of y'all have try it. Is't worth the price tag? Will it give me greater appreciation of my Provari? Once again, really appreciate all of the reply from my fellow ecig converts.
bump. need some help ASAP. bout to make it rain with some new sexy toys!!!!
shameless bump haha. need some advice b4 i shell out the big bucks!!!!
Thank for the advice. I been lurking on these forum for abit and it seemed this section get alot more traffic and responses. I will post there when it gets dead here. If nobody wants to help me, Ima go back to smoking tobacco leaf, straight from the plant haha jk ecig 4 life.
Personally, I'm just not a fan of tubes. The thought of brandishing something roughly the size and shape of a penis or putting it anywhere near my mouth Is unthinkable. Then to top it off with a tank full of green juice and some LEDs? Pretty scary.
That said, not only is it a more appealing form factor, using a REO is about as easy as it gets. You squeeze the bottle and juice comes thru a hole in the 510 connector into your atty / carto / whatever. If you do this without the atty /carto / whatever attached a few times, you will understand the principal and quickly learn when and how long to squeeze to keep your atty / carto / whatever wet.
As far as vape quality, the power produced by the non vv REO is more than adequate for most vaping situations. If'n it isn't, there's a VV grand too. If you need more power than that, your some kind of freak.
I have both grands and a vv grand. Durable, no bulls h I t, pocketable, all day vaping machines they are. They're all I'll ever use.
You can use your tube shaped mod to check resistance too (in your house where no one can see ya)

What a tool. A more accurate comparison would be a vw beetle cabriolet with the little bouquet of flowers on the dash (proscary) to a hummer H1 (REO).

I do not own a ProVari. I own 3 REOSMods- a Mini, a Mini 2.1 and a VVGrand. I have my reasons. I am a trucker by trade, over two million miles in 17 years. Big Trucks are not like cars or pickups, they ride rough and can dish out a real beating over time. Dripping while trying to steer 78,000 lbs down the Interstate at 70 mph is not a good idea. When I first started my vaping journey I asked about rough-service cartos, and a Forum Moderator named ClassWife directed me to REOSMods. Couldn't be happier with my REOSmini !
My advise to you is this; If you work at a desk or a counter, a ProVari is an exellent choice. The electronics of a ProVari are astounding. It cycles at a phenomonal rate, delivering a unique vaping experience. However, the ProVari is NOT the 'tank' alot of people make it out to be. I've met people here at ECF who have had to return thiers for repairs, one lady broke hers simply by dropping it off a bar.
The REOS, however, is specifically designed to be durable. I've accidently drop-kicked (it fell out of my shirt pocket) my REOSmini, from on top of three stacks of lumber on top of a flatbed tralier onto a chip-and-run hardened loading platform. Picked it up, dusted it off and kept vaping. If you Labor (Construction, Transportation, etc) you should seriously consider a REOS.
Eventually the choice is yours to make. Either a ProVari or a REOSMod would be an exceptional PV.
