that I can't open until Friday! It's my birthday present from my husband, but the deal was that I could not open it early. It's a green/green VV Grand. My first Reo, my first feeder mod, my first premium mod. Oh, the anticipation.

Stalking the mailman and obsessively tracking your packages, that's child's play. Being in possession of, but unable to open, is the ultimate torture.

You try getting the dog to rip it open accidentally (he wouldn't cooperate, btw). It's too sturdy, running it over with the vacuum had no effect.

ahhhh, well...it's only 4 days. It will be well worth the wait!

Congrats! You should spend the days to do some reading on the REO's! I hope you have the batteries and charger all ready!

Come visit the REO forum. There are many Reonauts there to help with any concerns.:
Reos Mods

Here is the index, lots of things to learn! : http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/270331-free-reo-forum-thread-index.html

Nerak, I've got 2 sets. Marked as pairs, charged and waiting. The *free* thread index (cute name, useful list) has been my reading material since last week. :)

I've been lusting after a Reo since my first month. Then I got a couple eGo Twists and realized that the 4.2 to 4.4 range was a really nice place to be. I set aside the Reo idea for a bit.

This was fate. I don't stalk the site, I have no idea when the new batch was put up. I hadn't checked on it in months. My husband said he just didn't know what to buy me this year and he wanted me to show him a few of my dream items. First stop was Reo and there was a VV version...excellent....wait, they're in stock? That can't be right. "Buy Now." That was last Friday. It shipped on Saturday. and the Reo site has been down since. I must have gotten in just under the wire.

I'm feeling kind of blessed, an awesome husband and an awesome gift... I can stare at a box for a few more days. :)

A couple years ago it was tough to get any REO. Robert pushed himself and got to the point that the metals are now kept on site. There is not a sale night like way back when! Only new versions and the wood REO's are eagerly anticipated as they go from development to the big sale.

I think you will be very pleased with the VV Grand. It is a powerhouse and delivers a massive vaping experience!!

Your hubby did well and you will know awesome when you get it running! LOL!

Keep an eye on the Reo site as a Mini 2.0 is coming that will be able to use the RBA. That is straight from Rob. Think that could be my next 1.
Also if you really want a steam machine then order a RBA & make a 28 ga coil using cheesecloth for wick, but be advised it takes 6 full wraps to get down to 1.5 ohms. Vapes great.

WOW, those Reos are down right sexy... Never seen them before.

Candi, which model do you have sitting in front of you with drool all over the wrapping paper?

It looks like a VV grand.

Pictures do no justice to the fit and finish of a REO, except the one that Bydus posted in another thread.

My biggest torture is actually having bought, opened and held the REO I want to start using but had to stash until I can get my SHCW's permission to use.

For now I am stuck using my other REO.

I googled the acronym SHCW, because I had no idea what it could stand for. Here's what came up:

8 SHCW Acronym Definitions
By Popularity / Alphabetical
See Harrison County Week
Second Hand Cars Websites
Second Hand Clothing Wholesalers
Second Human Civil War
Société d'Histoire de Comines-Warneton
Southern Heritage Championship Wrestling
Southern Highlands Country Weddings
Super Hand Car Wash

As you can see, none of these seem to fit. LOL
