I would think the Reos will always be in a class to themselves. Like the Provari.

I love my flask, but you've got lots of choices that are comparable to it.

A REO is a mech. There was a time a mech could do things a reg couldn't (sub-ohm for example). But that isn't the case anymore. I suspect there will always be a market for mechs but it will likely shrink as a percentage. Just my guess.

Gotta think so. There's such a glaring void in that market. It's going to be interesting to see how it affects REO.

Not as much as you might think. The main selling point of a Reos is that is indestructible. Anything with a chip set would be nice, but you wouldn't want to put it through what my Work mods go through.

I don't think anything Pop. I don't know what it will do. I'm just interested in seeing. Do people put their REOs down and flock to the regulated BFs? Do people who are considering getting a BF opt for the reg instead of the REO? Does it have zero effect? I just don't know. I'm guessing, at minimum, the regulated BF will grow the BF market in total. At the expense of the mech BFs? Just do not know.

So I've been working over this 26 gauge build in my Kayfun for a few days now. I could never do 26 gauge on any other PV because my low power preference couldn't heat the wire up near fast enough. But the boost feature on the P3 solves that problem and I can enjoy a 26 gauge build. After a few days now it is a very nice vape. More vapor volume and a nice full flavor compared to the 28 or 30 gauge. Definitely a noticeable difference. It might be too much for my wimpy vaping style but not overwhelming. So I will continue to experiment with it it going back and forth between 26 and 28 gauge to decide which I like more. Maybe I'll get some 27 gauge and split the difference.

The P3 has been a God-send for those who like to vape at low/medium power levels. It has opened up previously untouchable areas of the vape spectrum.

Twist some 28ga..Compared to 26ga it's slightly better flavor. each wrap on a 5/64th is .10 so 8 wraps would be .80 ohm. That's a good vape.

Yes it does but juice has leaked on it dripping..I'm taking it off. Idk how hard that will be..but I have some pretty strong removers.


If you're going to put a Jwrap on it, leave the carbon fiber on there, or else you'll end up with an indentation on the sides.

I can't remember Dust. I wanna say it was a week before Thanksgiving but as I mentioned earlier.my memory sucks.



Aug. 11 was when it was announced, and all the chatter started with the Beta models etc. That could be why it seems so long. :)

Good point. Yes, the betas have been out since late summer I believe and then the B&Ms got first shot at it for awhile. The final production model available online was near Thanksgiving. It also had the latest software version in it. All those prior I believe had an older software version that needed updating.
