I save my "bleh" flavors to try again at a later date. I've read in several different threads that our tastes will change over time after quitting analogues completely. I figure if I never like the taste, I will at least have some back up juice for nic fixes to hold me over till a new order can arrive.
Redeyedancer made a statement on the never ending thread that there's a couple of hundred minis that should be coming out within the next week or two. Should make it a bit easier to get your hands on one.
Might want to let them sit for a week or two, and try them again. Many of the juices are mixed to order, and need some time for the flavor to develop.
+1 jsado, I think he's hoping to put up the next batch the end of next week.
Do you have batteries and a charger ordered too? I ask, because my Grand arrived 5 days before my batts & charger, and man did that suck.
Yay congrats jsado. Don't be a stranger on the big thread if you have any more questions. Make sure you get those batts and chargers already if you don't have them. It's no fun having a REO you can't use. Well just looking at them is pretty entertaining too
Great color combination Black/Gold, it looks sooo nice (just like mine).
WOW, it sure does seem to be easier to get a REO lately.
I'm glad, because after months of research and finally getting one, IMO its the most practical, functional, durable, well designed and made juice box mod out there.
People should be able to get one.
And it looks pretty damn snappy too!
Nice choice.
You will like it.

I don't have anything for it yet. What does it even come with?????? Can somebody recommend batteries and a charger that won't be too expensive. I'm brand new to vaping (1 week in) and I feel like I've been spending too much! As far as PV's go, I should be done though. Now I have the LF Riva kit, which after adding another cone is now 2 complete units, and a Grand on its way.
Also, I've learned that I really like my drip tip better than filling carts.

REO Grand comes with:
1) Little zip bag of Noalox
2) Spare 6ml bottle
3) Drip tip
4) Short piece of thin tubing to restrict thin juices (when inserted into the main feed tube)
5) If you are real real lucky and your Biorhythms are peaking, you may even get a LR-510 atomizer.
But don't get your hopes up too high on that last one.

Choose whichever vendor and brand of batteries and charger you prefer, but here are some links to what you'll need:
For 3.7 volt (Protected batteries only are strongly recommended. Order at least 2)
For 6 volt Li-ion or 6 volt LiFePO4 (use 2 at a time, no LR attys)
For 7.2 volt (use 2 at a time, no LR attys, probably best to use HV attys here)
This charger can charge all of the above

These are the battery's Rob recommended and that I use in my Grand
Protected 18650 Battery, 3000 mah
Here is a charger that will get you started, there are better chargers out there. but this will get you started.
BR-1206W Lithium Ion Battery Charger
Standard Attys will work on the Grand so you should be good to go for start up.
I and many use a LR atty on the REO's but each is there own.
Hope this info was of some help.
Thanks mudflap you beat me to it. What is the shipping time at dealextreme.
From what I understand, it varies from "that didn't take so long, considering it came from China" to "OMG! It's been months since I ordered! Where's my stuff!"
I haven't used them, myself. But the reviews are all over the place.
Also, I edited my post to provided better info on the 6 volt option.
If its any help jsado:
I went to visit my Mom yesterday and showed her my new REO Grand.
She said "Now you've got enough".
And she's no chimp when it comes to thinking.
I'm just glad I never showed her the Phidias I bought in November.
But then, that ones not for vapn', its for lookn'.
If the REOs hadn't been so hard to get, I probably wouldn't have my Phidias or my Omega.
Worked out nice for me in the end anyway, I love all three of them (their like my kids).
I think you are pretty much set with suggestion on what else to get. Being only one week in your are lucky you ordered the REO so early in your vaping life
Once you get a REO, IMO its a good time to at least take a little break from mod buying.
Ok, what about this? I did a little research and read some reviews about the UltraFire 18650, 3000 mah. They didn't exactly get outstanding reviews. There are tons of them available on eBay at great prices, but none are shipped from the U.S. They all seem to be shipping from Hong Kong and China. I like to at least ATTEMPT to support my country. So, these are built and shipped from the USA. They're (real)rated at 2800 mah. The UltraFires supposedly real-rate at 2500. Help me out!

If it were me I would send the link to Rob and see what he thinks of the battery. I have never seen it or heard of one being used in mods. if you wold like I can send the link for you and try to get his feed back.
