Oh, Oh. I did it again

[Navy4life]

There are not many things that I buy twice without testing it out first. However, I have made an exception. Under the advice of many of you dedicated owners (crazy), I went ahead and did it again! This morning I ordered another Reo Grand (black and copper vein) and a REO Mini 2.1 (black and silver vein)! What brought on this impulse buy:

Last night while vapping, I had a "moment". My juice ran low in my Iclear tank. So I did the usual and went to fill it. So I filled it and replaced it. It didn't work. Then I had two choices: 1. replace the coild/wick and or find the other one. I decided to do the later. After looking around, I couldn't find the exact model, so then I had to use another substandard tank. This tank flooded. At that time, I looked over at my wife's cigs. I knew I didn't want to go there, but it was the fact that I thought about it that torked me off. Sure I've got two Provaris, but without a reliable delivery system they are no better that a ego! It was then that I finally found a old cartomizer for my satisfaction.

So here I am this morning, thinking about it all. The pain was to much. So I ordered the other REOs without the first arriving. I ordered it because I'm tired of boxes full of tanks that are more complex than MODS. I ordered them because I shouldn't have to get up out of bed to refill a 1.0 ml tank. I ordered them because the owner of REOs acknowledged me and thanked me for ordering (they didn't do that at the Mercedes dealership!). I ordered them because of this great community support. Finally, I ordered them because
super_X_ Drifter told me too; and that's what I'm telling my wife too!

Navyforlife, the only thing better than a REO is another REO (or two.....) We ALL believe that. Backups. You won't regret it. And the RM2 on a REO is the very best vape I've ever had (been at it 3 years.) Congratulations. And way to go on color choice....I want a black/copper vein so bad I can taste it!!! But.....I already have "several" REOs, and just can't quite justify it......yet.

 

[Faylool]

Did you happen to order VV the first time around? This is determined of you. I'm the same way....maybe not quite as bad. I use a kick with mine now because I finally found out how to sand the spot the ground wire touches and did so

Congrats on wisely getting another Reos. I took about a week before getting my second one.

I too tell my wife I had no choice, Super_X_D made me do it. I'd fear to be him when all the wives get 'im. ZZoweeeee!!

I gotta think up a new lie, I mean well based reason, to get #3, something really creative. Hmmmmmmmm.

 

[super_X_drifter]

Now you see why Rob recently promoted me to head salesman

JK, these bad boys sell themselves, these good people and people like me just feel compelled to share our experiences of a hassle free, off the chain vaping lifestyle. Well, in reality, with a REO, it's no longer a lifestyle, it's just life, and aside from filling a bottle every now and then, swapping a battery and an occasional rebuild of an RBA, ya just vape and get on with life. It's hard for us to understand why anyone would want to subject themselves to anything else.

And just for the record, I don't do what other "head" people do. I don't even own a tube mod

Congrats Navy Brother. You have done very right by yourself. Don't be surprised when you are looking at more REOs again

 

[Rhapsodies Fire]

You can take some comfort in knowing you are not the first person to do this. And nice call blaming Super X...we all do.

Just get another size in the same color as ones you already have. Thats how I got my first two grands - red and blue, to match my Red and blue minis . She never even noticed. My kids were a little suspicious though

If my wife only knew about all the REOs and RBA's I've bought. Luckily for me, she's totally uninterested (therefore clueless) in my vaping paraphernalia

Well russ, you can always blame your alterego, super x drifter. Everyone one else does.

Wife "russ why do you buy another reo."

Russ, "super x drifter made my buy one"

Wife: "who is super x drifter"

Russ: "he be me. He a bad mf. Right bro?"

Yes I did order the VV first. Has not gotten hear yet, but I'm sure it'll be soon. Got to ask you, which model do you use the kick on?

Hey Super X, I've heard the Reo Grand has multiple battery configurations. What do you use and Why?

 

[JC Okie]

If they kick anything, it's usually the Grand. Then they use an 18490 battery with it. With the rebuildable attys these days, and the capability of building a coil with as low ohms as you need, I hear about fewer kicks all the time.

Hey Super X, I heard I can use different battery configurations in the Grand; what do you use and why?

 

[super_X_drifter]

Hey Super X, I heard I can use different battery configurations in the Grand; what do you use and why?

What:
I only use AW IMR 18650.

Why:
I have never pushed the button on a REO without it firing.
They are what the grand was designed to run.
One lasts all day for me.
I like things simple. I bought 3 of em. Ones in a drawer (never used) and two are in rotation.

You may have seen a post of when I got my grands and didn't have batteries yet - i took an AW IMR 18490 (from my mini) and used the spacers from the xtar wpII charger and it vaped like a champ. But it kinda defeats the purpose of the 2000mah 18650

There may be others that work, but as good as the AW IMR 18650 is, I have never even tried anything else.

Oh, hi Loren, this is Rob. I like your idea. Yep, i just tell her that Russ did it. Ok, back to the modshack I go to make more people's dreams of a smoke free life come true and damn Russ has a hot wife. I'm not used to seeing such a hot Chiquita that's also so intelligent. Not sure what she sees in that tool.

Great ideas, just one problem.

My wife considers the bank account vaping paraphenalia, unfortunately. Of course we never had a fortune to start with.

I'm working on the _X_ Factor excuse. Anybody that can bull crap their way through Environmental Impact Statements and Assessments like I did for the EPA should be able to prevaricate their way to get more REOs. I'm working on it. If only I could have just one more drink. Dammit!!

Gracie singin' White Rabbit usually brings inspiration, as long as I don't 'nod out'.

I can not understand what about your post really got to me. I swear there were tears forming. I think it was the part about Robert posting and thanking you for ordering. Icing on the REO cake so to speak!

There have been many stories about fits with other PV's, tanks, leaking and bad performance. There have been many more about a REO changing all of that!!!!

If I had wealth untold I would put a REO in everyone's hands.

and I might get a "few more" for myself!

 

[Faylool]

That would be very rare indeed. That is a male attribute. Weird.

Ordering REOs is easy - it's trying to hide the box when you're walking down the driveway from the mailbox and smuggling it into the house that requires careful planning and balls of steel.

How about snagging the package from the mailbox, swaggering purposefully down the driveway to the house, going into the kitchen, defiantly plopping the box on the table, shooting a John Wayne look at the Mrs., and saying, "I think I'll have a fresh cup of coffee, before I open my new REO" (Hey, we all have our fantasies, right?)

 

[supertrunker]

Or - as i have told you in the past - get one for her too!

Filling a tank for 1ml of liquid?? pfft - i'd have just drank it! Tanks are a tedious exercise that pits futility against patience.

Learn to make decent coils (this last bit is the really tough part - it really does take practice, i know from my own bitter experience) - SXD runs Sunday schools for such things and then get some decent gear - RM2 and you're cool!

I may have more RM's than anyone, but i put that down to greedy wife and my own laziness. I run a grand daily and HRH uses a mini - they are both indestructible so far and i have been using my grand nonstop all day for about 7 months.

I have not managed to ruin a single RM2 yet either, but i'm on the case!
