Hey guys, I have been doing a ton of homework on what my next set up will be. I recently got introduced to the reo's and have watched plenty of YT vids. It seems almost unbelievable that the things are THIS great. However I won't say that they aren't, as I have never vaped one.
Some of the cons of the Reo that I can see from afar would be basically 3 things: 1) The shape of them. They do not seem as sleek/slender as a lot of mechs. 2) Before I give the second reason I want to make it clear that I am not bad mouthing the maker of these (I know he frequents this board); but these things are flat out ugly IMO. I have not found a color combo that I honestly think I could spend $140 on. They make look different in person, but between the texture, colors, and color combos, I honestly have no attraction to these mods. Again, I am NOT trying to be disrespectful as I know how much time and effort goes into making these things, not to mention looks and taste are obviously subjective. 3) The price. I work in an industry where I order/price out a wide variety of different types of steel/aluminum etc. I also own 2 high speed CNC's, along with a floor full of surface grinders, mills, lathes, CNC EDM machines etc. i have no clue why a small piece of aluminum with some really basic machining costs $140. I could be missing something here, but there isn't any fancy mechanisms or features on the Reo, is there? Just a piece of alum. milled out with a fire button, and a alum door with 2 magnets?
I recently bought a Chi You clone for 60$. No, it's not made in the US, but it's brass with silver contacts, looks beautiful and hits like a beast. My only problem is that I am not a big fan of genny atty's and am looking for something that produces a drip like vape, without having to actually drip all day. So essentially I could buy a kayfun Lite, slap it on my Chi and have what I am looking for (or, maybe not?), all while looking really nice, and staying right around the same price as a Reo with a RM2 and a few extra bottles, posts etc.
Keep in mind I am playing a bit of devils advocate here, and am honestly trying to get sold on these Reo's, but I just do not see the hype. I don't understand how a 1.3-8ohm micro coil can vape as good as a .4-.5ohm dual coil build on a traditional mech/atty. What am I missing here? Or am I? lol..Maybe it's the great community you guys have here? I don't know, but honestly want to find out.
Thanks for any and all responses and PLEASE, nobody take offense as again, I am playing more of a devils advocate here
Happy vaping..
