To all:

I just checked the site tonight on a whim... and there was a black/black mini in stock from the 7 pm batch (I checked at 8pm). I snagged it, went to pay... and didn't realize I couldn't use the paypal credit card option. I was out picking up food and on my phone, so I thought I lost it.

I didn't. Got home, and my "pending" email was there. I rigged paypal and bought it.

Then I realized...

I really wasn't sure if I was gonna buy one. Thought I'd wait and ask for my birthday, or at LEAST wait until I have more of my vaping preferences figured out... I kinda thought... if I don't like it, I can resell it, right? I really won't lose much other than time and maybe $10-20, right?

Right?

SO... now I have a few questions...

-Where's the best place to get my batt and charger sets?
-If I just chicken out or don't like it, will I have a tough time selling it if I keep it in good shape?

And then the carto/atty questions...

I have been using an ego kit and recently went from reg. boge 510 cartos to boge LR 510 cartos... and like them a lot. Still frustrated that I hear people say they get 10 years per carto and I seem to get days, not weeks or months, but whatever...

I was considering re-trying dripping (I tried it before and think I didn't fully understand, burnt my attys up front)... but I know me. I don't want to constantly fiddle.

Maybe the reo is meant to be?

Another dumb question - people keep raving on the dual-coil cartos... and I bought a few to try when my friend finishing making us fistpacks... but I caved and tried one on my ego. Didn't seem to pump vapor like everyone says, although I will admit it doesn't come close to burning.

a) is the ego too weak to make the dual-coil really shine?
b) will the mini have enough juice to make the dual-coil shine?

Thanks everyone. Fingers crossed for me and thanks in advance for the help.

hi brodymcd -- you got a black/black reo mini -- you lucky lucky vaper! Congratulations -- in my opinion, it will blow away your ego -- get batteries at lighthound.com - I'm not sure if they have the charger too -- your 510 cartos will work on the reo, you might also try an 510 or 306 LR atty -- Ikenvape or Avidvaper, no dripping needed with the reo, but you can drip directly into the well to try flavors - just put your favorite ejuice in the 3ml bottle and you should be good for the day. AS for dual coil stuff -- don't know, haven't tried it.

Congrats and enjoy!

stilllllllllll a bit nervous here... can't believe I just dropped about $170 total on a mod... this stuff better be as good as people say, or else the ego is looking like a steal and a half ;)

Welcome, brody! I am sure there are one or two people out there who prefer the eGo to the REO....but I haven't met them...and if I have, I guess I blocked it out because I don't get it myself. That being said...the REO isn't for everybody....but most who have bought them love them. If you are one of the few who doesn't end up liking it, you should be able to sell it for what you paid for it or very close to it. So you can put those fears to rest. I'm pretty sure you will like it once you get the hang of it. There is a small adjustment you might go through as vaping one of these is no where near what you're used to. We are here to help you through that if you need us. Keep us posted! And congratulations on your new REO. I have 4 minis and a mini Woodvil...so I'm a huge fan....but then, I AM biased. :laugh:

Two 14500 IMR left here. They don't slam you on shipping like lighthound does. No offense, Deliah.

AW IMR 14500

Chargers available too.

I'm just curious, I read a post form you earlier where you said the same thing about lighthound shipping after I placed my order for 2 IMR 14500's or I would have bought from the site you linked (50 cents cheaper) but anyway my shipping from lighthound was $3.34 so I guess I don't understand I didn't feel like I over paid for shipping.

OP, congrats on your Mini

How much did you spend per day on smokes ??

$170 is less than 3 weeks of cigs for me. :) The REO will last years and years ..... Looking like REO for the steal and a half.

Congrats on the purchase, I think you will love it :):):)

Wow, thats great. They must have made some changes there. Used to be even if you bought 1 battery the shipping was close to 7 bucks if I recall.

What BH said. If they've come down on shipping, that's a win-win for everyone.
