Just wondering if there are any users of both, liquinator is a tank that has a boge or dual coil carto that is cut to feed the foam inside. Many say its really nice, personally i think Reo is a better solution with bottom feed but never tried liquinator so I cant compare. Any thoughts on this from fellow Reo addicts? ;D

I have both and I find the REO better for my taste.

I keep the carto really really wet. I think the best tasting hits are the two right after a tiny squonk of the bottle.
So I often give a tiny squonk every two hits :)

The liquinator works perfect IMO if your used to "regular" carto usage ... it just always feels a touch dry and weak to me.

Just another one of the hundreds of ways are REO can spoil you !!!

two different animals, i have both. The REO is pocket friendly and more durable basically more fool proof. The liquinator is nice as well but it kinda slides around on the carto and can be pulled off fairly easily. I like both a lot. I just ordered a J tank as well. Interested to compare it to the liquinator.

Got a J tank on the way too :) I finally got a provari so I need some tank mods for that bad boy.

REO's are bottom fed and liquinator is top fed. 2 different animals. i loved bottom fed and had 3 reo's but now i love top fed! the flavor never decreases due to it running dry, requiring more "squonking" of the bottom feeder. top feeder take a few minutes to fill compared to the bottom feed bottle but worth it.

I have and use both. Personally they are both great. If you like the lower maintenance of having cartos, then the liquinator is your best bet. Just fill and vape. I am using the 5.5 ml "phat" on my silver bullet. No leaks. No gurgle. No hassle with messing with juice bottles or having to check the carto to make sure it is wet. You still have the chance of the carto going bum on you and becoming a straw for the tank. ;)

In comparison, my reo mini has better flavor with an atty. Cartos in general mute the flavor a bit regardless of how full you keep them. The reo gives me a little more hassle with fidgeting with the bottle and paying more attention to the juice to avoid flooding. However the flavor is quite a bit better. It is exactly like direct dripping without the mess and having to have a bottle of juice to fidget with.

Vapor production is about the same using lr cartos with the liquinator / lr attys on my mini.

So for me, less flavor but less hassle with my liquinator. Better flavor a tad bit more hassle with my reo.

Both are good devices for what they are made for.

Well the liguinator is not really top fed in the true sense.

Its still feeding juice to the carto below the coil.

All tank mods are still bottom fed ... just they sit on top of the device.

very slim pickens for true top fed devices.

I'm sure there are a couple more.
