I assumed that it would be clear that I was speaking about a VV REO. As I said, it was wired.
If it wasnt, I apologise.
However, I never said anything about the reliability of a REO, yet that was brought up in response to my posts as well.
Heck, I even said that they were reliable.
Its interesting to me that folks get so wrapped up in their mods, to the point of defending that which was not attacked, and resorting to personal attacks.
Nothing is perfect, REOs included, and while squonking is great, it is also more restrictive than something like a vapor flask.
But if you bring that or any other point up in a thread where its "Should I get a REO or xxxx", woe betide anyone who says they are anything less than completely enamoured with the REO, seemingly to the exclusion of anything else.
It borders on fanaticism, and that is never good, regardless of the subject.
To recap:
The REO is a great device, and like anything else it has its faults.
Personally, I find that one of them is that the finish isnt up to what other devices in the same price range offer.
If v drop has been improved, great! Now I know, and thats the point of disussions.
By its nature, squonking, regardless of what mod it is done on, introduces limitations that either restrict atty choice, or requires modifications.
This is not the case on a standard 510 style atty, and its a valid point.
The fact that the mech REO's are reliable is one heck of a low bar. A switch works when you press it? Wow. Plenty of $20 clones work every time.
Still, never did I say that its a bad product.
Sheesh
