Stacy....after uploading your photo to Photobucket click on your picture, then go to 'Editor' and do a 'Resize'. Put 600 in the left box and the other box will automatically adjust to whatever is good. I find that to be a good size for posting on the forum. Then look at all those links down on the right side of the page after you've resized the photo and choose 'IMG' and just Copy/Paste that link to the page here.

Yes I did. I'm still not getting to enjoy my new reo like I should though. After all the anticipation from reading everyone's raves about their reo, it seemed like it took forever to get here. ( It didn't. Shipping was actually super fast) It just seemed like a long time. Then it arrived but my batteries didnt. More waiting. Today my batteries came in, I had my rm2 built and ready to go, filled my bottle with my favorite juice, checked the charge on the battery (was good), loaded everything up, squonked and fired. After a few second draw, I exhaled and vapor was everywhere, but I didnt taste a thing! At first I thought maybe it was addy but I grabbed my 134 with a kayfun and hit it and still nothing. Ive had a head cold for about a week and today of all dang days has to be the day that my taste buds quit on me. WTH!!?? I JUST WANT TO ENJOY MY NEW TOY!! Im goung through the motions anyway, and I love how it fits hand, I love the amount of vapor I'm getting and I can already see me ordering a mini for work. Maybe tomorrow I'll get some flavor

 

[Rickajho]

Awwww.... pook.

Feel better ASAP kiddo.

 

[mommabird62]

Awwww....bummer in the cold Stacy! Hope you feel better soon and can enjoy your new toy

Thanks I also received my two 30ml bottles of complimentary quick nic juice from the football contest today. So many new things lol. If I wake up in the morning with sense of taste, it's going to be like Christmas around here

Why not stop in your local vape shop to see if they carry the battery. Having an extra never hurts. Great looking Reo. I have had mine for about a week and love it.

 

[Stacy1]

Yours looks awesome Rourke! I have batteries now. They came in the mail today!

 

[Stacy1]

How hard are you guys having to squeeze your bottle to get juice? I can't taste flavor so I wasn't aware that something was wrong until my vapor production all of a sudden went to nothing. I removed my drip tip and watched the juice enter the atty on my first few squonks to get an idea of how fast it feeds. I didn't have to squeeze hard at all to get good flow. When I took a draw and didn't get any vapor, I looked and my wick was completely dry, and I've been squonking every other draw. I did it again with the drip tip off, and I'm having to squeeze the bottle so hard I'm worried it's gonna bust! What have I got wrong?

Cut an inverted V in the bottom of the tube it can suction to the bottle. For a full bottle I need about a 3 seconds and 1/2 bottle about 5 seconds and 1/4 bottle about 7 seconds. As it the bottle gets lower same pressure just for a longer duration.

 

[Rourke]

I am new but I don't have to squeeze or squank too hard. But one thing that I have noticed is that it helps to hold it squeezed for a few seconds before releasing. You may have something stuck in the tube and it might need a good rinse to get it out. Good luck.

Thanks. One of my favorite things about have the SL is that I can see the juice go up the tube when I squonk. I am also paranoid about juice leaking into my Reo, so I like being able to see what is going on inside. I have yet to cut the inverted V in the tube and mine is working fine. Let us know if you try it and it helps.

 

[JC Okie]

Stacy, it shouldn't be very hard...especially with a full bottle. Remove the atty and squonk and watch that the juice is flowing freely up through the connector. That's the first place to start tracing the path of the juice. Sometimes you need to unscrew the bottle cap, then screw it back. And.....to make sure that the tube is not suctioning itself to the side/bottom of the bottle, clip an inverted 'v" in the bottom of the tube. Or cut it at a 45 degree angle.

 

[Stacy1]

Thanks guys! I did it and it worked. My tube was completely on the bottom of the bottle and couldn't get flow. My "v" doesn't look as good as the pic beast posted lol but thanks to the pic I was able to get something like an inverted v.

Mine tend to look more like a script "m", but hey, whatever works to keep it from suctioning to the bottle
