Just ordered REO Mini, need a little advice

[pwissing]

Hi, I am fairly new to vaping, almost 2 months now. I just ordered 2 REO Mini's for my husband and me. I couldn't find any place that has the AW 14500 in stock, that is in the USA, so I ordered some.
Ultrafire Protected 14500 Battery, 900 mAH from madvapes. Will these be OK, until I can find AW that are in stock? i am so excited to get the REOs, How long do they usually take to arrive? Ordered a short while ago and I am in AZ.

Sure, they'll work. Just bear in mind that if you are using LR attys, especially 1.5s that they'll be stressed and it will lessen the time of use per charge and the life of the batt. But at least they'll work until you can get some AW IMRs.

The reos are sent priority mail but you have to sign for the package so get ready to chase the mail man. Sometimes they just drop the you-weren't-at-home slip in the mailbox or just hand it to you even though the damn box is in the truck and you are at home. If they do bring it with them, they only try once. Otherwise, you have to go to the PO to get it.

Definitely get the AW IMR batteries when they become available again. The Ultrafires are better than nothing. I would have done the same thing.

Thanks, I will be using just regular 510 atty. We don't have LR ones. The mail lady is pretty good about bring packages up to the door or putting non-sign ones in the mail box if they fit. I am currently on vacation so I will be home to sign. I can't wait have been looking for a way ro feed more juice, and drooling over the REOs ever since I saw them.

Once it hits the mail, priority is pretty quick...my last one was just three days (ME -> FL) until it showed as "out for delivery". Of course, my carrier messed up somehow (usually he's outstanding) and the notice wasn't in my mailbox until the *next* day, but it ended well and I'm really happy with my mini. Wish I'd found them sooner, like you did.

I just ordered a second one today, we can race!

Thanks for the welcome. I have been reading and getting lots of great info.

OK, hopefully, that batteries get here in time to charge them and be able to use them wit the REo right away. We can't wait!

Thanks, I ordered a Green/Black, like in your avatar pic Mvgratz , and a Re/black, for my hubby. He is a Star Wars fan, said he is going to call it his "Sith"

You can order 14500 AW IMR's from SuperTmanufacturing or RTDvapor in the USA, takes about 2-3 days to arrive. Welcome to Reoville!

You can get "extra" doors now too, and change the total "look" if you choose to. Thank God Rob has been able to finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Untill recently he was always sold out of everything in just a few minutes. Hopefully he gets a chance to catch his breath... I waited 2+ months to get my "Green Hornet" as they have been "dubbed" by others. Now they are easy to come by.

Unfortunately, Rob's release of so many Minis recently seems to have created a shortage of AW IMR 14500's. If you find any in stock, please post here first.

When AW makes more and ships them, you can. AW is still a few days away from having more made according to Randy (RTD)...

Hi pwissing -- just wanted to say

and enjoy it in good health

 

[pwissing]

I looked all over for AW in the past. Did see some from China, don't remember where though. I just didn't want to go that route. It takes so long to get stuff. I would rather wait until, they are in stock here in US. At least I will be able to use the Ultrafire ones I ordered.

I do have a question about vaping. I have done all the research on the health benefits of switching to vaping, but having problems convincing my family, (Mom, Sister, and others), that vaping is so much safer and healthier than smoking cigarettes. How can I convince them?
