Planning my trip to REOville

[RuDawg7890]

If you're seeing specific voltages quoted, chances are they're using a charger (e.g., xtar) that has a meter. I can't imagine anyone religiously checking bats with a mm every time they swap one.

I get that you have some slight trepidation regarding mechs and battery use, but in a very short time you, too, will be able to estimate your battery's charge just from the vape quality. It's really not a huge deal and using the "diet" method (changing the bat out according to the amount of juice consumed) is a good discipline while you develop your battery-fu skillz.

Congrats on both making the decision to enter Reoville and for the vapeversary. If you've been reading in here, you know that we have a tradition - pics when she arrives or it did not happen.

That's pretty much what I was thinking, thanks for confirming.
Thanks!!
I'll will surely post pics when she arrives. Maybe even pics of me stalking the mailman!
Pretty much just waiting to decide which one I want. The LP/SL black wrinkle with tumbled door really has my attention at the moment!!

Black wrinkles are just so classic and, IMHO, provide the best base for any door - nothing looks bad paired with it. The TRA's have, again IMHO, the best feel in the hand. That said, there's no such thing as a non-awesome reo.

Ok REOnauts, here I come! One LP Black Wrinkle w/Tumbled SL door + some pieces parts just ordered!!!!

Had a bit of a panic, as I proceeded to checkout @ RTD for the new AW 18650's, and they are out of stock!!! I really wanted that new 20A limit. Quick google search, and a quick ECF search led me to Lighthound, 2 of the new AW 18650's on order.

Ahhhh I'm super excited.

So when should expect to be able to stalk the mailman?!

You just ordered today? It will probably ship tomorrow, and expect in two to three days. Every time I order from Rob, I'm in Georgia and I get my orders two days later.

Just minutes before my last post. Awesome, thank you.
Should be just in time to break it in right before my 1 year vaperversary.

Nice choice, and welcome. You'll more than likely get it either Friday or Saturday. It will come "signature required," so make sure there is someone to sign for it.

 

[RuDawg7890]

Woooooohoooooo!
Batteries coming tomorrow.
REO arriving Friday.
PERFECT! Was really hoping the REO didn't come before the batteries, that would have driven my nutz!

Now I just have to figure out a way to be home to stalk the mailman on Friday!!

Congrats, Ill be awaiting pics for this.

If you can't be home, just drop by the post office around 4-5ish, the carrier will probably have returned with it by then.

Thanks! If my Zenith threads on her, pics will be up immediately.
I will most likely have to run to the Post Office. As I learned when I received my ProVari, the mail man doesn't arrive at his normal time when a MOD is on the way!!

Congrats. Look forward to hearing your thoughts on the awesomeness that only a REO grand can bring to ones vape life

Oh hell yeah. It's on like donkey kong

 

[RuDawg7890]

Here she is!
I can't believe how small this thing is!! Minis must be super tiny.
Bad news, my Zenith doesn't thread on her. I'm super bummed about that. I have a tap and die set, but don't have the right die, so I'll have to find the right one.
Good news. A few minutes in the shop on the drill press, and the IGO-W I had laying around is now a bottom feeder!!
Built a .5 ohm dragon coil just for the heck of it. Not my favorite build, just wanted to give it a shot with this setup. Missing the flavor the Zenith gives.
I'm going to build a standard dual micro coil and try again. I prefer larger coils anyway.

Doesn't it feel great in the hand the first time you hold a Reo. You can feel the workmanship and it is solid.

Enjoy you new Reo.

Size wise, yes, wonderful initial feel. I did feel a little awkward until I figured out how I wanted to hold it, to make it easy to fire & squonk with shifting around. That took all of about 3 seconds. Now, it just feels so natural.
It makes my 18490 Provari w/KFL look like a giant!

Thanks, enjoying the hell out of it already!

 

[Papa_Lazarou]

Woot - another convert!

Within a week, you'll .... your head like a questioning dog at tube devices, thinking "how did I ever?"

 

[RuDawg7890]

On my second build already!
.5ohm dual coil build again, this time six wraps each of 26ga on a 14ga needle. Wicked with Japanese cotton.
Now we are talking!!!
Flavor isn't quite as dense as with the Zenith, but this will definitely hold me over until I either re-thread the Zenith or get a new BF RDA.

I'm loving this squonking thing! Sure beats dripping for sure.
