Hi guys, it's been about a month with my REO Mini 2.1 now, and I have to say it: it's become THE mod for me. I had heard about it, read about it, but all in all, it didn't seem like it was made for me. I wonder if I could've been more wrong. I used to vape with a Nemesis + Kayfun/Russian before this arrived, as you know both considered to be among the best in the vaping world. Nemesis is an amazing tube mod, amazing conductivity - the only thing my REO can't deliver (until the upgraded contacts are out that is).

Ever since I started using my REO, the Nemesis has been in the shadows, have not used it once. All the hassle of dismounting and cleaning the atomizer is gone, coils are way easier to make in the Reomizer, and hell, I love dripping. I figured out I could love a REO when I bought a Nimbus a few months ago. Taste and vapor was so much better... yet I hated having to drip every few hits. All the hassle is gone with this.

Now I've got another REO on the way, this time a Grand milled black wrinkle mahogany, plus an unmilled brass RM2.0. Also will be using it with the cyclone AFC (currently using it in the Reo Mini BTW, it's outstanding too). The only time I had a little trouble with the REO, and was very frightened I had overtightened the atomizer, was once I had very bad leaking problems. Solved them with some cleaning, following the advice given here to other REOnauts.

I have to say, this is my personal message to you Robert: THANKS. This delivers exactly what I need, I'm done looking for this or that. I wanna improve my experience of course, there's always room for it, but now I enjoy vaping without worrying if something else could be better. I couldn't be more grateful.

Soon I'll be messing with the Grand (once again, thanks robert for the quick delivery, really impressed, you deserve a dozen roses) and doing some dual coils on the Cyclone, following the advice given here hundreds of times about batteries, checking the coils, some extra mantenance as I'll be using unrecommended flat tops (sony 30a), etc.

I needed this, needed to say I'm a freaking happy vaper - hope it stays that way for a long time as UE is about to screw us. I'm on too for the woodvil race BTW - winter is coming and the sky is about to turn bloodish red :p. See you around, I'm not much of a writer myself, but read all of your posts fellow reonauts and I have to say this too: you're the best community out there, period. Thanks for all.

Just did my first dual microcoil in the reo, 7 wraps of 29 gauge kanthal, 1.6mm diameter (sorry guys, don't control inches) in my Cyclone, at .6 ohm, more or less the same vape I got with the 1ohm with 28 gauge kanthal, but hotter and a lot more taste. Loving it, but won't use for too much time as I prefer not to melt the button. Can't think what this will be like when the new contacts are out, aiming at .4 ohm with 27 gauge dual microcoil :) .

Adding to my experience: my first fried button. Same dual coil in the cyclone at 0.6, it just fried the button in exactly 24 hours of vaping. Back to the friendly ohm coil until new contacts are out... Well, it was worth the try. Now my reo is taking a bath, tomorrow will be back to work.

What this has tought me is: there are limits (most important), and that I need the new contacts ASAP to surpass them, the cyclone with AFC is shouting for a sub ohm dual coil... right now I'll park it, for a single coil I much prefer the RM2 :) .

HUMMMMM Ray, I like that name! I've found it hard not to love the Reo. I bought one and my last order was two more. Hope to get a wood and sub ohm Reo in TRA. When ever the subs are ready I'm gonna get a couple of doors, a copper button cover for my Copper Vein, If they are ready by then maybe Rob will be making the aluminum button covers also. I should just open an account for Rob and just keep it funded when it gets so high just send me another Reo and RM2. Reo + RM2 = perfect vape. No clearo's, no glasso's no atty's to replace just $.07 of wire and so little cotton It doesn't register on the cost meter. A Reo can't be beat.
