Hey, Reonauts! Just wanted to show off the newest addition - copper vein LP Grand, topped with the brand-spankin' new RM5!

It's still a work in progress - the button cover is just sitting on there and seriously, that drip tip has got to go - but I couldn't wait to gush a little. This is REO #3, but it's my first "real" Grand (the others are a VV Grand and a Woodvil). IT'S GORGEOUS!! It's a blem, but apparently a Where's Waldo-like effort is required to find the boo-boo because I haven't spotted it yet. It's also smaller than I expected - very comfortable to hold. I'm very, very happy with it.
The jump from the RM2 to the RM5 will take some getting used to, but so far, my impressions are positive. It squonks perfectly and the slits in the posts make installing dual coils very easy, which was the main attraction for me. However, it was apparently designed to be a fog machine, so massive airflow is the default position. I can dial it down to a level I like, but that's about a quarter of a turn from completely closed so there's not much wiggle room there. That's a compatibility issue, though, not a fault with the atty, and it may not be an issue once I've spent more time with it and found the right build. Ultimately, I'll probably invest in something a little smaller and a little "tamer," but the '5 will be great for some juices - I like my NETs nice and toasty - and for general vape variety.
OK - time to figure out how to install the button cover correctly. And shop for a drip tip. Maybe not in that order.
