REO Grand First Impressions

[proficio]

Been lurking on the forums for a couple of months now, vaping for the same. I own a DSE 901, 510, laser pointer mod and 14500 mod box(many of each).

So I got my new REO Grand in 24 hours ago and I have to say............seriously!!!!!!! If you haven't got your hands on one of these yet you need to with a quickness. Ive been vaping strong since yesterday at 7pm(about 2ml's usage) and my battery is still at 3.78 volts. The throat hit is awesome, vapor production and volume is amazing and its sooooooooo easy!!!! I love this thing, Im buying a REO Mini as soon as he gets some in.

Welcome to the REO fold! I got my first Mini back in September, and it has been a constant companion. I've gotten another Mini, a Grand and a Woodvil since then - all excellent mods. Best of luck, hope you are able to get your Mini!

Welcome new REOnaut!!

LOL, Im a Reonaut!!!! Sweet!!!!

Ill get a mini for sure, ill be posted up, android and credit card in hand 24 hours prior to the next release pushing the sync button on my hotmail inbox........hehe.

As for the Woodvil, im actually from Woodville, TX plus im a woodworker so I think it would only be appropriate that I make my own wooden mod box.

Hey proficio...new here as well. I've been using the eGo tank system (inferno) for 2 months now. It's OK but I just don't get very good taste out of it at all. I picked up a couple of Cisco 306 1.5 atomizers for dripping and the taste is like, "Whoa! What a difference!" I'm hoping to pick up a Reo during the next sale with the hope that the taste will be far breetter than the Tank.

Can I ask: What atomizer (s) you're using and if you're happy with the taste?

As for the next sale: Buena Suerte!

Yea my sister has an Ego Tank. I really like it but I it seems like theres a lot of maintanence on it. Seems like she's always having to clean and blow out her atomizer to keep it vaping well. Im also a little concerned about battery longevity. In my little group of vapors we have been through probable 15 batteries in 2 months until we started making our on mods using protected cell lithiums.

As for me and attys, I prefer the 1.5 ohm SLB 510 atty's. I unscrewed my 510 from my best vaping custom mod box(14500) and screwed it straight on my REO after unpacking. Using the same juice as the custom mod box there was a definite difference in flavor, throat hit and volume. Im a hard dragger and have never once got choked up on juice until I got the REO...........lol.

Ive been thinking about trying a 306 atty, its 510 threaded right?

 

[pianoguy]

Yes, the 306 has the same threading as a 510 - I use Cisco LR 306's from avidvaper.com and have had good luck with them. They come in 1.5, 1.8 and 2.0 ohm. I'd recommend a longer drip tip, like the ones sold on the reosmods.com site.

Thanks Pianoguy. I guess some of us are lucky to have discovered the Cisco attys so early in the game. Can I ask what regular LR 510 attys you like? The reason I ask: I hope to pick up a Reo Mini during the next sale but I'm also thinking of buying a VaporMate (VapeMate?) top feeding device from SuperT. It appears from the info and video on their site that 306's can't be used with that particular device. Looks like I will need a 510 atty. The 510 attys I've used so far (from Volcano) have not been all that great. Ok, but not great. I don't think Cisco makes a LR regualr 510, does he?

Well, I didn't get the Cisco. I was ordering some mod parts from madvapes so I went ahead and got a 1.5 306 from them. I'll see how it compares to my SLB 1.5 510's.

Cisco has 510's, too. Ikenvape also has very good 510 and 306 atty's. I personally am not a big fan of the 510 - I find the draw a bit airy, so I prefer the 306, and the 306 seems to run a bit hotter as well. I have seen a lot of folks say that GreenhouseOne has good LR510's at a reasonable price if you order in quantity.

 

[proficio]

I guess if I like the 306 from madvapes I'll have to bite the bullet and order a couple of Cisco's. Usually when I purchase stuff I do it in bulk since I buy for like 7 people........LOL......I've kinda become my own local distributer and promoter for e cigs.......LOL

LOL. I know what you mean. I work at a large postal facility and we're up to 12 vapers. I was the first and they look to me to buy things in bulk so that they can try them out!

Thanks for starting this thread by introducing yourself. And thanks to veterans like pianoguy for stopping by to help us noobs out. We really appreciate it.

Glad to be of help - like I have said a number of times, I don't ever remember being this enthusiastic about Marlboros ;-)

I would imagine the Madvapes 306's probably come with primer fluid in them, so you'll need to blow them out. That's one nice feature of the Cisco's - they don't have primer in them. On the Cisco's, they recommend dripping 7-8 drops of liquid in a new atty and letting it sit for 5-10 minutes - this is probably a good practice for any brand. Even doing this, I sometimes get a burnt taste, and in that case I de-wick the atty (no real need for a wick with a bottom feeder). It is simple to do on a 306 - just push the wick material out to one side from under the bridge with a toothpick or paper clip, grab the wick material with a tweezers and gently pull it out.
