On stockpiling after FDA deeming regulations

[justinjj1280]

There are other mechs, but honestly, for longevity, if it's affordable for you, I'd get a reo or two and a couple Rm2 atomizers. You don't have to drip with a Reo, there is a bottle inside the mod, you squeeze the bottle, and juice feeds up into the atomizer from the bottom. Since you're a tootle puffer, the Rm2 would suit you fine, and you can't hardly find an atomizer that is easier to build on. I would also suggest getting a coil master V3 coil jig, makes a beautiful coil, and it couldn't be easier. Turn a knob, that's it once you get used to the amt of pressure or lack of it that you need to apply. You can't destroy a Reo. They've been run over by giant logging trucks, run over by cars, lawn mowers etc and they still vape if you put a new atty on.........cuz the atty does get destroyed with that kind of abuse lol Watch a couple vids on reos, and maybe visit reosmods.com or the lounge The Reonauts new lounge there are plenty of folks that are more than willing to help. Someone saw your post, and posted in the Reo lounge for someone to come help ya. Any questions, you can always pm me or I'll even volunteer Enaud lol

So, the Reo's were easy to find. But, I can't find this RM2 atomizer anywhere. Does it go by a different name?

I just wanted to put this out here because I know Heartland Vapes has been rumored to have declined in quality recently.
I bought a liter of 100mg/ml from them which cost me $44.99 (which came to $53.50 including shipping to NY).
It came in an opaque plastic bottle, but I will be transferring it to glass asap.

The liter I received is crystal clear, colorless, odorless and has no peppery taste whatsoever - I'm very pleased with it.

I mixed up some 12mg unflavored last night as a test, and am vaping it now.
To me at least, it is indistinguishable from the sample of 100mg/ml that I received from Nude Nicotine, which I tested under identical conditions (unflavored at 12mg with identical dilutants, same tank/mod/coil setup).

I agree.It has been a little over a year since i ordered from them,and it sounds like they change the bottle,mine was a black plastic jug,but i have several liters from them,and it has all been very good.

Unfortunately this doesn't align with my Lazy Factor.

I hear you. Because for a long time it Wasn't aligned with mine either.

I mean, why go thru all that Bother when I can just build something in the Ballpark and the Fine Tune using the Up/Down button on VV/VW Mod?

But then the DripBox hit. And for the price I Couldn't pass it up. I Really liked the Hit I got from a RDA. But there was No Way I was going to sit there and Drip into an RDA every 4 or 5 Hits.

The DripBox forced me to do Precise builds for voltages that Didn't change all that much. And Blam-O! Another RTA user crossed over into the Squonking Universe.

BTW - Something I should have Mentioned Earlier.

ANYONE who is considering using a Mech, No Matter how long they have been a Vaper, should Know and Understand how to Calculate the Amperage Demands that an given Build is going to place on a Battery. And should Only consider using Batteries with a High Amp Constant Discharge Rate that were purchased from a Very Reputable Retailer.

Wonder if Reos is going to release any more P67's?

 

[chanelvaps]

Are any of the just plain bases good at Fasttech for the STM? Ones that you would use to put a bellcap on?

Oh, I feel ya. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on how one looks at it, I won't be home from work until 9PM. I kind of want one, but I don't really need one. Glad I'm working though. The decision has been made for me. It's a smaller run. Won't last til I'm home.

Jup the link woofer put under your post is the one. RM stands for Reomizer. There are standard ones and low profile ones. If you get a low profile Reo, you'll want the low profile RM 2, and you definitely want the low profile LP Reo. Depending on your budget, they have some clearance, and low budget ones, and he will have another run set for tomorrow of P-67's. Very nice and with a side button.

As far as I'm concerned, mechs ARE the Mercedes type things.
I have recently bought six King v1 clones, and they are unbelievably good quality.
They may have only cost $9 and change, but the machining is absolutely first class and they look expensive.
They are also extremely robust in design - I have disassembled one completely, and there are no obvious points of failure.
If I ever have to use more than one of my six, it will be because I lost one, not broke one.

Yep mech's are mostly like military tanks, takes something serious to wreck them LOL

Bad, very very bad

Actually this is the worst time to begin using a mech. If you're ever going to use them, you need to do it when you have plenty of other mods to vape with. It's not something you just slap together in a hurry when you're jones'ing for a nic hit. You definitely need to make sure that you know how to use it safely. I am probably considered a "fan girl" and I suppose I am, but it's with good reason. For someone who has an intermediate knowledge (me) I believe Reos are the safest mech there is. Yes they're expensive, but as the poster I quoted below said, you can buy a lot of cheaper things that may or may not last, or one or two quality items that literally will still be going after we're all dead. There is a lot to be said for community also. I wouldn't have attempted all that I have as far as mechs, coil building, DIY etc without the folks to guide me, teach me, and sometimes save me from myself that I found in the Reo threads, and the porch.
I'm not kidding when I say you can't kill them. For those who are considering one, or have just bought one, here's a tidbit for ya to feel great about your purchase, or possible future purchase. This pic doesn't do the size of this machine justice, but considering that the claw is holding probably 6 or 8 trees, I would imagine the tires on this thing are about as tall as a man.
View attachment 569813
Picture this beast with chains on the tires. One of our Reonauts dropped his Reo grand, and this machine ran it plumb over. He pried/dug it out of the rock road. The atty was snapped. He got a carto out of his truck, screwed it on the 510 and vaped the rest of the day on it!! show me a tube mech or any other mod that can do that!


Precisely! Sometimes there are great deals, and sometimes a really expensive item is garbage, but for the most part you get what you pay for.

I didn't mean to barge in with Reo talk, but someone saw Justin's post about mechs and asked one of us to come tell him about Reos. I was the first one who saw it. I'm gonna go back to my corners of ECF now, but if anyone has questions about Reos, feel free to PM me, or come visit us at the Reo lounge
The Reonauts new lounge

Yep I can believe it! The Reos remind me of the toughness of my GLV's, you really can't destroy these mech's they are tough!

 

[bnrkwest]

I just realized that most of my stash is USA made. Provari's, Reo and GLV's. I got a nemesis too but didn't get a chance to check it out yet. I had to go shopping for food today and only vape stuff I bought were more plastic containers! LOL

You might be Surprised.

There is (to Me) something Very Cool about the inherent Simplicity of a Well Made Mechanical Mod. Something of a Purity of Function.

There is also Satisfaction from getting the Exact hit you want on a Mech for a given Atomizer. Because the Hit you get is Completely dependent the Build you put in an Atomizer.

This, though, is kinda a Double Edged Sword. Especially when you are Relatively new to Building Coils. Because you can fine tune the hit on Regulated Mod by changing the Output Voltage / Resultant Wattage. Something that Can't be done with a Mech. So a Mech can be Frustrating if one Doesn't have some experience with Building Coils and Wicking.

But without Dark there can be No Light.

And getting a Mech to hit the way you want it to is Part of the Cool Factor.

I know everything there is to know about building, and I'm a master build craftsman (*)

When I'm in a bar I stealth vape my masterful builds at 20W. I might go out and get some fresh air, turning it up to 30-35W. Then back down when I go back inside. I really do this in a variety of situations.

Explain how I do that with a mech...

* - not really but I hope you get my point...

Bad, very very bad

Tell me about it.

I saw this coming a few years ago and have been on the dtumbeat to prep since joining ECF 7/4/2015.

I don't know about Prohibited? Because I haven't followed Utah like some of the other State Legislation(s).

But I believe that GG was referring to Utah HB-415
