Lol, I do understand that some of you like hitting the button with your index finger, I do too, but for some reason I'm all about that thumb...it's not a problem, my right thumb is honored when my main man needs a rest. It just reminds me of looking at sweet knifes, I search all over the Web to find the coolest freaking razorblade knife and it's flip action/clip is designed for righties... but you know.... Im always trying to knife open packages with my left hand! So I pick butterfly knife.

I did do some searching and the lefty REO has been brought up before, but I couldn't resist bringing it up again... and I'm glad I did 37 likes, and some feedback :). I had heard that a large percentage of smokers were left handed. Which might not be true, but a large percentage of lefties are smokers. I tried to find an up to date study/survey with an accurate statistic, but I couldn't find snax. I'm on my phoney, so maybe I can uncover something later on a big screen.

I have no idea how much work it would be to flip the design and run it... From what I can tell everything is interchangeable, except for the derlin piece, and I'm not really sure how those are made:vapor:. All I know is if someone is offering a lefty model, I'm going to be intrigued, ambidextrous/lefty designs are clever. Alot of people design stuff without thinking about lefties, or just assume it wouldnt be worth it. It's important when it comes to certain things, hand tools especially.

Of course, I'll find a way to survive, we still haven't converted to the metric system.... I'm going to go vape in a dark corner now ;) and play with a yoyo:vapor:

Lefty here,
I think Rob offered to make a bespoke lefty. A PM to the master, your Visa, and some time may be all that is needed.

(Metric since the 80's...:lol: )

Am I out of line here? Ordered a Reo mini LP about a month ago things are going good... except for I wish I would have ordered a grand.... dang close to getting one too. I wish Rob would offer a lefty edition. 1/10 people are lefties and everyone just forgets about us.... it's sad.... I'm pretty sure a "high" percentage of smokers are lefties but it guess they ain't mod makers :p I know it will happen eventually but we got anxiety too.

So will the real Lefties plz stand up!

I'm a lefty but for 4 years have vaped with my REO in my right hand .......

Lets think about it ..... its in my hand all day ..... How the heck would I get anything done if it was in my left ??

All lefties are pretty much ambidextrous anyway because we are forced to live in a righty world.

Its all good for me.

I must be one of those ambersexuals or something. I'm left handed - even went through that phase of Catholic Nuns trying to "gently persuade" me that being left handed meant I was a devil child - but I've always squonked right handed. Never gave it much thought actually - at least the squonking part. I still have left handed Nun related nightmares.

Ambidextrous and vape with either hand (although I am a righty). Even so my Reo's (all my mods) spend way more time in my left hand to leave the right available for most other tasks. That's the way the brain started out and still leans subconsciously I guess. I have zero problem using the Reo's in either hand subconsciously (or in my case maybe unconsciously). ;)
