I quit smoking 17 days ago. I had to, COPD was on my doorstep. Since quitting, I've had a phobia about losing or breaking my pv. Maybe my addiction to Reds turned into an obsession with vamping, who knows. In the last 17 days, I tried several types of toys, most of them worked well, but I had to feed, drip, cartomize, fluff, wash, dryburn... you name it. I also lived with a paper towel, a bottle, spare batteries and sticky fingers for that whole time.
When i inquired about the best system out there, the most common denominator amongst the veterans and pros was the Reo. I didn't listen and spent a bunch of money on toys. Toys that worked mind you but still, toys. I had to fiddle, jiggle, drip and diddle, with care.
Yesterday, my wife called me at work to tell me that she just signed for a package. It was my Reo mini. A blue and black one. I rushed home early just to see it.
I've been in the precision gear industry my whole life. I've worked for companies that made gears for the Shuttle, for Nasa, for
tanks in Vietnam and for Huey helicopters. Machinery and cutting metal has been my livelihood for 35 years. As such, I can tell a well made machine better than most. As an engineer, I can asses a well designed machine for it's robustness and efficiency.
As an ex smoker, I will tell all newbies that this vape thing works, it got me off of a 40 year pack a Red/day habit.
As a vaper I'll tell you that the Reo, in my honest opinion is the best thing out there.
If you're wanting to get a lifetime machine, get a Reo. No, I am not being paid for this review. Quite frankly, I don't need the money. I'm doing this because whoever Robert O'Neil is, he is a genius and deserves the support of the masses so his business can grow, and we need his machines so we can stay off of analogs. Pretty strong statement from an ex hippie turned fiscal conservative who still travels to Amsterdam for coffee 4 times a year huh?
God Bless
