It's here! A new-to-me green mini (14500) with silver door. First impressions are that even though I saw many pics, this thing is smaller than I expected. It fits very nicely in my hand and has one of the best finishes I have ever seen (or felt.) I watched the Grimm Green video review and laughed at the way he kept caressing the mod, but I find myself doing the same thing. It feels VERY solid and I especially like the locking button. Everything about this seems to be very well thought out even down to the smallest details. The door on mine slides smoothly and stays put with no rattling. The green isn't as bright as I had feared. It is more like a deeply saturated grass green.

It vapes great with giant clouds of vapor. I am vaping unflavored using a smok 1.7ohm super shorty. I like cartos because of their consistency, but hated having to stop and refill the shorties after an hour of vaping. I admit that I have almost zero experience with attys, but I'm going to order some. I have been vaping unflavored because it is satisfying and I felt like I was always straining to taste flavored juices. I'm trying to go easy, since my charger isn't here yet, but I can't seem to put it down.

Thank You, Rob, for making such an awesome vapor-maker. And Thank You to Charmed412 for allowing me to buy it.

Congrats on the Reo mini! I too have one -- black with a red door. Everything you said about how it feels in the hand, etc were my impressions exactly when I got it. Good luck with the atty's if you try them. I personnally didn't have much luck -- I either flooded them or didn't get enough juice on them. I'm sure it was me and possibly whatever cheap atty I was using. Other's seem to have a lot of success with the atty's on the Reo, however, so have at it. I ended up reverting back to the smoketech XL low res, dual coil carto. I do use an atty for dripping new flavors, however.

Anyway, welcome and enjoy!

I hadn't bought many different mods for myself and effectively stopped considering any others since I got my Minis. I have two and am just not interested in any other types. I may at some point decide I need a grand (just for longer battery life), but for now, I love my hassle-free Minis and they suit me just fine. I like how I can set them down, throw them in a purse pocket and not have to worry about them, or slip them in a jacket or jeans pocket. They are so convenient!
