Welcome new REOnaut!! I know nothing about the Provari, but I have been using a REO Mini daily for over 6 months. You don't seem to have batteries for your Mini. The AW IMR 14500's will be in stock everywhere next Monday. In the meantime, read this: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...if-reo-your-first-mod-what-you-will-need.html

There is a learning curve for all mods, and, while you have started with the top of the line, they are very different. My suggestion is that you spend a week with one before you tackle the other. Otherwise you may get frustrated.

If you have any questions at all about the REO, post in the REO forum: Reos Mods

    in a cave, eh?
    Did you say you've already spent $600?

    If you've already got a 901 atomizer on the way, you'll want a 510->808/901 mini adapter for it.

    Did you get batteries for your REO mini? Consider having 3 * AW IMR 14500 batteries (2 in regular rotation and 1 backup). But, since you've got (or are getting two systems), you can probably skimp on a few extra batteries.

    You might consider an extra 18650 battery for your Provari as backup.

    Do you have a charger for your batteries? Consider getting a dual battery charger.

    You can look at MadVapes for your extras. Or, for batteries and a charger only, you could look at RtdVapor.com.

    You're really going to need more juice for 6 months. Consider a big bottle of unflavored extra strong nic as a backup that you can flavor yourself from BoxElderChemicalSupply.com. You can cut down the strength with PG and/or VG from the local pharmacy. Your safer bet is to look at the 36mg stuff, but stronger options are available (up to 100mg) if you promise to be careful when handling it.

    And then you could just look at getting more regular bottles of e-liquid and maybe a couple extra packages of cartomizers.

    If you haven't ordered yet, go to the Reos Mods subforum browse the stickied threads, and post any specific questions you might have. Do the same at the ProVape subforum.

    Happy vaping.

    +1, highly recommended!

    I think you'll really be pleased with the Mini. As far as spare parts for it go, the spring is probably the thing you should have. It is designed to collapse in the event of a short (from a bum atty or adapter, typically). It hasn't happened to me, but does occur from time to time.

    Interesting, you separated into 2 mods. So you will do juice feeding with the Reo and then VV with the Provari? For me, and this is just me, VV is the key feature to have in the mod. If you end up like that, you might end up using the VV mod all the time. If that happens, you might want to add juice feeding to it instead of loosing VV to get your juice feeding on. You can do that with something like a vapemate.

    That looks kinda neat -- but would totally look like some kind of hybrid paintball gun/drug device. :) I'd look into the Liquinator myself. Still kind of freaky (much like any hybrid tank system like CE2/MAP) but it maintains the cylindrical profile without having anything sticking off the end.

    Pinoy mo? I really have to change it, there are too many Pinoys here :D

    @Minefield, I actually went out with the vapemate for the first time last night. I got some funny looks at the bar. I do agree, for going out, a tank is probably a much better option. There was a messy, juice everywhere learning curve to it. I even emailed SuperT to ask how I use the thing. They sent me to a good video. However, the vapemate performs really well once I got the hang of it and I was comfortable using it while out. Some of the attention was good attention, if you know what I mean, the vapemate is a good conversation starter :).
