I have to find him on the forum and ask him i guess :) Thanks for the info, meanwhile i gave rm another chance and now im happy. Still gotta fix wobbly top cap but it performs stellar at .7 Ohm. I get around 5-6 puffs out of each squonk :))
oh glad you got it working well. You can PM him his username is Redeyedancer and his avitar is a porkypine holding a yellow mod I think. The reo certainly looks authentic from the outside, but he can tell ya for sure.

One thing about Reo. Turns out my Reo is a LP Grande, i wasnt looking at the right spot when i was searching for some more info about it :D
Now, the thing i wanted to ask is, are there any stronger magnets available for the doors? I'm not sure is it supposed to be so soft, but every time i put the mod in my pocket, and try to get it out i end up with doors stucked in my pocket.
I've seen od Rob's site some magnets, but not sure if they are stronger and if so, how to change them if i orde a set...

pretty sure they're just the ones that he puts into the REO, did he get back to you yet, to say if that place you bought it is a company he deals with, so you know for sure it's one of his mods? If it's not, they could be stronger, but mostly they're made so that the door comes off somewhat easily, might just try grabbing the sides, but wrapping a finger around to sorta hold the door as well

I take no responsibility if you overdo it but if you lay the door on a counter with half of it over hanging and give it a tiny bend it will snug the door up it only takes a little so don't go too nuts :)

Jup, forgot about this!

Here's Rob's youtube channel, he's got a video on there about this, but again, at your own risk.

I had a chat with him, and he confirmed they bought some of the mods a while ago.
I have inspected the entire mod in details, and everything seems to be fine. All the threads are fine, nothing is stucking , everything works smooth. The thing that woked up my concern was the atty itself, but i guess working woth so small parts increases the chance that something won't work out as planned, and my bad karma got me ending up with one of sucf atty's. Meanwhile i fixed atty up so its ok now. The hole on the post was drilled too deep, so u pushed in some mesh till i get the hex screw stopping as soon as it hits the bottom of the side hole for the wire. As for the loose cap, i used some floss, put couple wraps under the oring and put the oring back and now its ok :)
But yeah, im not sure if the magnets are wearing out if they sit around for extended perion of time, the ones that i have are quite loose. Sometimes i grab the mod, do the squonk, and as im shifting the position of the mod in my hand so i can start vaping, doors move up or down.
I'll prolly order a set of new ones and replace them just in case, its a couple cents anyway :)

Experienced users, a question for you, how long usually the bottle can last you before it cracks open. I use anywhere from 2 to 3 bottles a day (trying to reduce m nicotine at the moment from 6mg down to 4 so juice consumption hase gone up for around 1/3) but i expect in matter of couple week it wont be more than 2 bottles a day.
I will order a bunch of those bottles, i just wanna know how much time i have since got only one bottle with the mod...

not sayin it's never happened, but I've never heard of this with the regular 6 ml bottles. Now with the newer bottles that are easy squeeze, no one knows really, they're supposed to be very sturdy, but they're so new we don't really know. Not sure which ones you're planning to get. If you do get the older ones, some folks soften em up by putting them in some hot water for awhile. Not boiling, I don't think, not really sure.

I'll order both of them, 2 or 3 of each type, and i'm not into bending the doors at least at this point. I think im gonna order some magnets, a spare doors and bottles, and then i'l try playing with the doors if new magnets dont make any difference. For now, id like to have the doors on int rather than brake the ones i have and end up with 3 sided Reo :D

you will likely find the new magnets are about the same especially when the Reo gets broken in and changing magnets isn't the easiest thing lol theres many horror stories from people doing it

NICE!!!! Pretty great of em to put a REO holder in it too!!
I thought about it back in the day when I was hanging on to the last relic of my mispent youth, which was a 2003 BMW 330i (custom dinan-conversion half-way completed) until I sold it to help my soulmate reach her dream by financing her college & univ degrees in early childhood developement/pre-k teacher specializing in special needs children as well.

Well, if i dont try, i'll never know :D Thats why i'm ordering a spare doors. I'll try it on the doors first, and if i succeed ill go for the mod, if not, well, still have the backup :D
Hopefully the new door will fit better, if not you can certainly try it on the old one. Some folks have mentioned heating it to loosen the glue, but I don't know if that could mess up the paint or not. I would definitely start a thread about it first or search if you're able to do that now. If you need help starting a thread, let me know. But definitely like misswish said, call or PM Rob, he don't mind, and if you get his voice mail, he'll call you back.

Hi everyone! Hope you all had a fun and safe New Year's Eve and day. Glad you are getting it all sorted out, mil! Deb is a great Reo ambassador! Don't be afraid to call Rob, he is so nice to work with.
awwwwww thanks hun, but we all are!! Reonauts are amazing folks!! Just like the porches.

Just heard the last magnet in my Reo Door hit the floor on Xmas eve... Found it! Grabbed the super-glue, & it's back in place.. However, it is protruding a bit more than it used-to, which is causing my door to fit more snug than before, NOT an issue, really... Right now my Reo is taken apart, in my rebuild-box, waiting to be put back together. Reason being- it stopped firing & I couldn't figure out why. I THINK (tho im not 100% sure) i THINK that the atty coils were shorting-out, perhaps hitting the base of the atty? IDK. It's either that, or, that screw that keeps the black delrin insert in place, in the Reo, it may have taken-off the paint in the back of the reo, and, idk, maybe it was hitting the firing pin where there's no insulation, causing my mod to short-out? IDK! but it stopped firing! so, it's apart! lol.

cant wait to get her back together though, because, it IS my favorite mod.... looking at clones on fasttech and other sites right now, thinking about pouncing on one in the near future, as a buddy for my genuine. WOULD buy a genuine if i had work, but, i don't. want to stock up b4 the vapocalypse should strike and all mods either raise in value 50%, or, become unavailable, all-together? who knows!

Otherwise having a great night vaping on my subox mini w/smok RDA. feelin the nic right now, actually... wooOOooOoOOooo...
