Which one would you all suggest?

I know the juice bottle size is double and two different batteries. This would be my first mod so i want to know about the right one.

Battery life comparison: Mini(14500-900mah) VS Grand(18650-2600mah)

How long will each last? I want an all day vape and dont mind carrying an extra battery.

If you can happily vape 6 mL of the same flavor before refilling or switching flavors, go with the Grand.

If you have really tiny hands, go with the Mini.

If you like LR attys/cartos better than SR versions, get AW IMR LiMN batteries instead of Li-ions.

If you're a heavy vaper, you'd swap out batteries more often in a Mini.

I have never owned a Mini so I am biased .... but....

When I got my first grand I though I would get a mini to match.
Then I realized how great the grand was .... Not once did I think it was too big or bulky
So I went on to get 3 Grands without regret.

Every time I entertain the thought of getting a mini I just think "might as well get another grand instead" :)

If Rob made a "Super Grand" with a 10 ml bottle I would get that too.

Yeah i'm def. trying to get a mini tonight and probably a grand later this week. Just want some good batteries. I wish they sold them on reos site.

silentt, you will love the AW IMR 14500 batts. They give a good consistent vape until they are done, and fit the mini perfectly. Now the 18650 in the Grand will last you all day. I go through 2-3 14500's for a full waking day of vaping, but it's not a problem to carry a couple and switch out when needed. If you are looking at Lighthound, get a couple 2.99 battery cases Ballistic Nylon Battery Case with Keyring

TrustFire Protected 14500 3.7V 900mAh Rechargeable Lithium Batteries

^^ those are what im thinking about getting, any suggestions? links?


edit: Nevermind i think i'm going with the IMR 14500 HIGHDRAIN from IMR14500HIGHDRAIN , it says they are the same size at unprotected batteries, will i need a spacer for the reo mini or not?

I just followed your link. DO NOT get the BDL 14500's. They do not provide the same power or longevity as the AW IMR 14500's

I agree DO NOT get those blue BDL imr batteries. They really suck I have one. Get AW IMR or stick with your TF for now.

Also I have a Grand and a Mini, I like the Grand better. I change the batt daily but could go 2 days. Mrs dopeh likes the mini, batts last her 2 days lol but I'd go through 3 or 4.

Agreed, also they are flat on both ends and require you to press harder on the Reo button to make contact with the battery, Rob doesn't recommend those for his mod
