Ive bounced around on here and online and just finding this info simply put is becoming irritating hunting it down. I know some of you reo guys can answer this quickly and more efficiantly than my searching. What are the advantages to the REO simple and factual please. Can you use other atomizers or is it propriatary. How does it stack up vs "traditional" rba etc. Ive seen them around here on ECF for forever, always been curious, but now really tempted to buy one.

Some rebuildables are bottom fed. There's a hole through the connector and the deck that allows juice to be squeezed up from the bottle through the bottom of the atty saturating your wick and coil.

You can indeed use non-bottom fed attys. It is a 510 connector, so tanks and drippers can be used just as if they were on a tube mod... but you can't use the on board juice supply without a bottom fed atty. REO has several choices for excellent bottom fed rebuildables. I use RM2s, but hear great things about the RM3, RM4, and RM5.

It's like dripping but you just "squonk" the box to feed the juice into the atomizer which makes everything more convenient and less messy. Also, they're a quality product. Reos are very durable and, if you look at any of the video reviews for other bottom feeders, you'll realize how difficult it is to get the bottom-feeding thing right in the way that they have.

here's the link to the REO forum: Reos Mods

Yes you can use a number of different types of atomizers. However, whichever you use must be a bottom fed atomizer, meaning it has a hole through the bottom so eliquid can go up into it from below. There are a number of compatible atomizers listed on the REO forum & there are several new ones added to the site.

If you go to the Reo Sub forum, you'll see the overwhelming Reo love and then you'll get it.

That first squonk, that first vape from your RM2, you will NEVER want or need anything else. EVER! PERIOD

Maybe they will be kind enough to send me one to trial out :p I don't know, I think I am going to shelve the REO up on to the "once all my other expensive projects are finished, imma buy that" shelf

All the benefits of dripping with none of the hassle, bullet proof, reliable, excellent conductivity, the best customer support around from Rob (the owner/designer/creator/builder/modfather) a great group for support and encouragement in the Ville, numerous color and door options and then there's the little issue of being the best vaping device out there.

OK, that last part is opinion but the rest are cold, hard facts.

I dont find dripping a hassle at all, at least not enough to warrent that kind of price tag though. Unless they have gone down since I last looked. A local B&M has them for around 180.00

More Reo love over here.

I know the price tag may make it seem "high end", but trust me it's not a "trendy" purchase or device. The thing has been around for 4+ years for a solid reason.

Cheers

Oh I have zero doubt to the quality of the product, Ive seen everyone on ECF dripping over those things since there inception. Im just not entirely sure it fits into my lifestyle at the moment.

My hands shake so for me dripping is more of a huge mess but I understand not everyone has that issue or feels the same. Mine go with me everywhere which entails a lot of driving. Dripping while driving is a disaster waiting to happen.

One of my purchases was a blem from Rob, I couldn't tell what the blemish was until he pointed it, and I believe it was $125 or right around there. It is, in fact the one that Izan posted above. First run mods from the site are between $145 and $165. Not cheap but a great value.

Like DC2 said, they're not right for everyone but they are for an awful lot.

If you decide to try one, I think you'll really like it. If not, I hope you get maximum enjoyment from what your using. Vape on :)

A fair perspective.

We do, however, encourage you to do a bit of reading over in the reo sub to understand what you need/want to know. You'd get a sense of what the reo has done for a very wide range of people - probably many just like you.

With very few exceptions, we've all gone down the RDA/mech/shiny road to get where we are. In my own case, this means that I can truly appreciate what the reo has and does.

If it's not for you, so be it.

Oh, and also note that they resell in the classies for just about full price in minutes, so anything you put into it could be recouped plus or minus should you want to walk away.

When the beetle is finished I guess I will have to give the reo a trial run, along with a pro-vari. You zealots talk me into everything on here. (truth be told though the little reo may benifit my wife with her dripping)
