REO Grand Coming (I hope)

[kickdastiks]

I managed to get on reosmods quick enough after I got the e-mail notification this time. Brand new REO Grand on the way!

Now the tricky part, do I....
1. Wait till it arrives in my mailbox (is there a chance it will get turned around at the border? They wouldn't do that to me would they?)
2. Order batteries & charger
3. Wait longer
4. Bottom feed vape!

or...

1. Order batteries & charger
2. Hope the REO arrives in my mailbox
3. Bottom feed vape!

Opinions?

Either way... is there a Canadian supplier for the batts?

As long as he's not sending you Juice with the mod you'll be fine to get everything.

I'm not sure what batteries they take, so I don't know if there is a Canadian vendor, but HappyVaper has some 18650s I believe..

You're gonna love the Grand. It's been perfect for me in the car. Squonking is the shizznit.

Jack from HappyVaper carries the AW-2900's locally. I use those and a mix of Trustfires I had ordered from overseas for my Grand and Omega (at home).

What colour did you get?

Oh, and welcome to the ReoNauts!!

I just got one as well and am loving it but it was second hand but not used and came with the cheaper 18650 batts and I already had a bunch of 3v from my homemade mods and sb but I ordered a bunch of aw's from litehound and also some from wonderlite here on the forums as the prices here in Canada for them is. You can compare just search the forum for aw battery importers or here I'll try and put the link: NEW *AW Battery Importers & Exporters of America* (Shipping Worldwide)

The third time and It works now.

 

[MikeDeason]

electroniccigz.com is Canadian and they sell the UF 18650's.

or you can order the better AW 18650's from Super T.

 

[VapourGuy]

Super T's charges $29.99 for shipping here and I think its to make it cost the same as buying from happy vaper for his products but I could be wrong.

 

[Switched]

He never used to charge that much?? But it wouldn't surprise me that he has changed his shipping rate.

 

[kickdastiks]

Thanks for all of the help. I can't remember ever being this excited waiting to get a carton of analogs before! I couldn't be picky about the colour, but I'm happy with the blue/silver I got.

I've got some decisions to make about how to get the batteries & charger. Wonderlite looks o.k. I think, but what an ordering system (a combination of thread posts, PMs and Paypal). I'm no MBA, but paying a 14 yr. old to build you a website might bring in even more business from people like me, no?

I don't dare put one of theose "I've been vaping for... & I've saved $xxx ...", my # would definetly not be in the black! We all know it's not just about the $ though.

 

[MikeDeason]

Super T charged me like $3 to ship the AW 18650 batts. Just pm or email him for rates.

The HappyVaper prices are ridiculous.

 

[Kempton]

got mine no trouble, best PV yet! also got a journeyman no trouble, trouble started as it fell apart rather quickly.

 

[kickdastiks]

I ended up ordering from Wonderlite. $59 US for 2x 2900 batts, the intelligent charger & shipping is a great price. I ordered Fri night and he shipped Sat a.m.

Hopefully it all works out.

That's one thing about Happy Vaper, there is no question about how long parcels will take to arrive after you order from him... a day, 2 days max. Also, I know I could have easily sent him an email saying "I just got a REO, set me up with the right batteries & charger", he would have told me what I needed & saved me the research. I just happened to have a long weekend to burn anyway!

Rtdvapor also has the batts you need he just set up his site to accept orders from us up here. Ordered last week and they are at border already long weekend has slowed things down some. But good prices and supposedly he will soon have a sale on aw imr 18650 batts. Don't worry bout these at the border they are just flashlight batts. An I have my woodvil here already and a grand at the border. It's just the juice that's an issue.
