Reo Lounge Part V

[Debadoo]

My next purchase will probably be more kanthal and the easy diy kit my local B&M sells. I think with the REO coming tomorrow, I'll probably go through a little more juice than with my tanks, and at $10.60 a pop for a 33ml bottle, I think I'd rather start some diy and get use to it before getting stronger nic and making juice that way. I'm kinda looking forward to it...not as much as landing in REOville tomorrow, but still! lol

Kewl. What kinda stuff is in the kit? Sometimes those kits are a good deal, sometimes, they have stuff you'll never use, and cost way too much.

I knew I wasn't my normal chipper self for a while now, went to the Dr. today and found out I have a bit of walking pneumonia!

I don't know how i got it cuz i haven't walked anywhere since last fall

P.S. I'm currently in negotiations with JWraps for an Elvis profile on the front of a Grand and blue suede shoes on the back.... THAT"LL cheer me up!

I been wonderin bout you.......a few of us have. sorry to hear you're sick. Hope you get better real soon! Jwraps is a good idea, probably a lot less than engraving! Plus you can change it if you want. Good to see you hun. Hope you're feeling much better real soon!

Howdy y'all!!!

They do an 'easy Nic base' which is like 9mg, 16mg, etc (odd numbers) so all you have to do is add flavoring and a little pg/vg to get to your target Nic level. You get some vg, pg, some flavoring (I think), syringes, bottles, a notepad, pencil, and one or two other things all in a toolbox for like $60 or so. Their flavoring isn't priced too bad either, so for someone just starting out and starting to experiment with mixing, it's not over the top. They're super nice people, so I don't mind buying from them.

well the first part of the day stinks......glad you'll have some Reo bliss for after!!

Be sure to cut an inverted V in the bottom of the tube, so it don't suction to the bottle. There is a vid on this if you haven't seen it done. Also, I would do your build in whatever before hand, so that will be ready, if you haven't already.

whatchya up to tonite scott?

not much just chillin and hurtin my back the other day

 

[Paramaniac413]

Yea, morning is definitely going to suck.
I did see the 'v' thing. I ordered an RM2, so that's coming in the box. I was thinking about starting out with a 1.5 Ohm coil with some 28g (I've got 26g and 28g here at the house right now...might pick up some 30 though). I was going to practice on my Mutation X v3 earlier, but I got involved in a project for the Undergraduate Research Fair. I graduated in December, but my advisor (she's only a year older than me, but we've totally become friends - go figure) talked me into putting together this poster. Totally cut into my "OMG I'M GETTINN A REO" time. LOL

that stinks, I knew you weren't around too much the last day or so, but am sorry you hurt your back, how'd you do that?

I got the RM2 built last night, and like it, but am still deciding if I prefer a smaller atty or being able to do lung hits. I'd never done those before, but am kinda liking them now. The RM2 is a bit more airy than I thought it would be. Thought it would be super tight, but it's not. Not quite airy enough for a lung hit, but looser than most MTL type atties. Just getting used to it. Did you vape coffee in this though? Getting a lot of that still. Will maybe soak it in some baking soda/water later on. Built my coil too high. Started out ok, but in tightening it went back up to about 1.7, was aiming for 1.3

You'll have the RM2 built in a couple minutes. Super easy. Jup, wrap a couple coils to have em ready to go unless you're a fast coil wrapper. If you have some deoxit, put some on your batt ends, and on the top of the spring, and the bottom of the + contact, if not use the noalox that comes with it. I'd give the atty, bottle, tube etc a quick wash, and vinegar soak but that's me. wet the tube to get it back on the 510 easier. uhmmm..... what else scott???

 

[Paramaniac413]

You put the noalox on the battery ends as well as the contacts? I've never used the stuff before - what does it do? Washing is a given for me (thankfully - I actually did get an education at PSU! Lol...Mom thinks I went to college agin just to beat her at Words with Friends!) - bacteria is one thing (I love microbes!), but machine oil and packing dirt is another (wasn't so fond of chemistry!). lol

Only thing I can think of to add is take the required pic before you take the first hit...Once you hit it you won't want to set it down

 

[Debadoo]

uhmmmm......ok, I know you do with the deoxit (put on both batt ends as well as contacts) not sure about the noalox. Maybe just on the contacts is enough, it's thicker and ickier. Basically it keeps oxidation from building up, so it makes a better connection. You really should be talkin to someone who knows for sure what they're doin help me out here scott!! lol

 

[Mrs C]

Scott I'm with you in the back pain dept tonight. It's raining here and even the meds are not helping much.

 

[Debadoo]

and some folks who vape higher ohms, don't use the noalox at all.

sorry to hear that hun......I do the same thing. My back, hips and knees are way more accurate than any meteorologist. Took me a long time to figure out that's why I would hurt sooooo much more at certain times. If there is only one rain system, as soon as it starts raining, the pain will ease up a bit. But usually we have more systems right behind it.

So sorry hun........hope both of ya's are doin way better quickly!! Constant pain is NO fun!!
