My first Reo!! Silver Vein Grand topped with A7 rba from Empiremods. I tried a couple attys laying around (some 306, 510 bridgeless hybrid), then after a few minutes, I just remember why I don't use attys anymore (I'll try the Reo with a carto sometime). The A7, luckily, arrived at the same time as the Reo today. The stock coil on the A7 was pretty bad, and it stayed there for the whole 5 minutes of trying before I ripped it out. Not my first go around with these phoenix type rebuildables, so I made a new 10 strands of 100% cotton yarn, 5/4 wrap with 32g kanthal, and it metered at 2.01 ohm. I'm just running it at 3.7V currently. Thinking of adding the kick in there sometime.

This is my first bottom feeder, so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I'm liking my Reo so far. Gotta get used to the squonking, but the A7 is pretty forgiving to my oversquonking (especially with the extra strands of cotton). I keep getting the gurgly first draw, but I adapt. I take a few sharp draws w/o power to clear the air passage. Haven't had any leaking from the catch cup, which was my number one worry, but so far so good :)

Karen is that not one but TWO ebony with quilted maple i see there??? Hands down my favorite REO. Was the first woodvil I saw and forever in my mind as just the way it should be. Ahhh....someday. Someday.

I only have one Bloodwood/Quilted Maple. I had wanted a Quilted Maple for a long time. I do have a all Ebony and a Utile/Ebony. I do agree the Ebony/Quilted Maple is beautiful!

I've tried to think of something funny and brattie to say about your collection Good Twin but can't come up with anything. So I'll give my honest opinion. Beautiful Collection!!!!!! Thanks for sharing. I know how much time and effort it takes to arrange "the family" for photos and I really appreciate your effort and results!!!!

Hugs and love, The Other Twin

those are ERA attys, the tips are cheapies I got form madvapes or super T I don't remember which they match pretty good

They look great. I may need one :)

Super T is "local" so I have been looking for a reason to support them. Love the p+, just not sure I want one for me.

Just how I've been carrying it around the past couple days. The A7, while shiny and works well, is a little too flashy ;). The donut shaped trippy tips did solve ALL of my splatter problem with the A7, atomizers, and the shorty cartos.

All in all, still very pleased with my first REO!!

Edit: How does one score an ERA/Chalice these days :)

ERA's are only sold thru group buys/coop's and the Chalice should be back in stock soon or watch the classifieds:)
