Soon to be (hopefully) new mini 2.1 owner with some questions

[heath]

Hi guys. I pulled the trigger on a mini 2.1 yesterday, based on the rave reviews on this forum and youtube. I have a few questions for those in the know:

1: what is the turn around on shipping out an order after it's been put in? (paid for, item in stock)(and I realize there are always variables)

2: A couple of the video reviews mention the battery/juice "door" can be a bit easy to come loose if slid downward (a magnet thing?). Is this an annoying and frequent issue?

3: I ordered a few different types of atomizers and tips, a rebuild kit, spare 3 ml bottle-all from the ReoMods site, a couple of the recommended batteries and a charger... is there anything esle i need?

4: What the hell is a squonk?

i realize that most of these answers are here somewhere, and I am using the search button, but I figured this would be a way to say hi to this sub-forum as well...

Thank ya'll in advance!
Heath

Normally very fast (3/4 days)

you can just add a little tape on the battery to make it tighter.
3: I ordered a few different types of atomizers and tips, a rebuild kit, spare 3 ml bottle-all from the reomods site, a couple of the recommended batteries and a charger... Is there anything esle i need?
some juice to vape! i would buy a rba... But will be your next step!
4: What the hell is a squonk?
trough the little window on the side of the reo you can feed your atty when needed.. Squeeze or, in reo world..squonk!

Usually it will ship quick, in a day or two. You will get an email from PayPal with tracking. Don't see it by tomorrow check your spam folder! It will need a signature for delivery.

2: A couple of the video reviews mention the battery/juice "door" can be a bit easy to come loose if slid downward (a magnet thing?). Is this an annoying and frequent issue?
If you notice the door slides a little to easy you can put a rubber band around your battery to hold it a little. Here are some more suggestions: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/285947-loose-door-new-mini.html

3: I ordered a few different types of atomizers and tips, a rebuild kit, spare 3 ml bottle-all from the ReoMods site, a couple of the recommended batteries and a charger... is there anything esle i need?
Nothing else that I see. You might want to pick up a spare spring sometime. Just in case there is a short and it collapses. You can easily replace it yourself.

4: What the hell is a squonk?

Squonk is what we call pressing the bottle to get juice to move up to the atty! Squonking is fun, and very simple!

Hi Heath! Congrats on your purchase! You are in for a heck of a discovery using the best PV out there! Your a Reonaut now, welcome to the family!

Re: #2
I don't have any problem with my door. Had my REO Mini 2.0 since December.

You're gonna love it!
What color are you getting, heath?

 

[nerak]

FIRST!

Congratulations! I tried!!!! You done good too!

 

[heath]

Thanks for the replies and info! I will look into the rubberband or tape fix, if the issue is there. I already have juice, so hopefully it will work ok with the mini. I got the black wrinkle/metallic red color scheme, which i believe is black with the red door. Atlanta Falcons fan here, so i was happy to see that model was available.

Heath, I'm checkin in from Canton GA. Good to have ya almost aboard. I see that others have answered your questions, so i wont replicate, but I will add that you are making the right choice, especialy suited to the outdoor lifestyle that us Georgians enjoy.

A REO is a bullet proof solution to the problem of a hassle free vape. Not only do they provide all day action with possibly only a battery change and adding a little more juice to the bottle but they are a hell of a lot more manly that a big old tube.

No way I would roll around these parts (or anywhere else for that matter) hittin off a tube.

 

[heath]

and i'm currently vaping with an joyetech eroll(which I like enough), so i'm guessing this is gonna be a pretty nice step up...

haha well i'm rollin' with just about the most petite tube there is right now, so I'm glad to be finally steppin' up my game...

i have been around a while. Started with your typical mall vendor ripoff vape... I've used Totally Wicked (can't remember model#s), Joyetech eGo (loved them,except for those leaking tanks), and had been using the truck driver specials from Pilot before I sprung for the eRoll a couple of months back. Hopefully this will be the "go to" vaporizer that will stick. I am in Newnan. Good to see some other Georgians around!

Just look how right at home and bad ... a REO looks sitting on top of a toolbox next to a dirt bike.

So you stuck with vaping for like 4 years? Damn that's awesome, especially considering the equipment that was available initially? That REO is going to knock your socks off boss.

i gotta admit, the looks are a good part of what sold me on ReosMods. Though at least one of my rides ain't quite as manly haha

That is definitely a falconmobile! It IS tiny. What is it a scion?

nah, just a smart fortwo. 3 cylinders and 71 raging horses under that hood... in the back... My f-250 diesel was killing me on my 90 mile roundtrip everyday. I'm secure in my manhood (and also enough of a cheapskate) to not have a problem driving it. It's averaging over 40 mpg and being in it feels like playing real life Mario Kart, especially on the interstate.

If the door is a bit loose, or even if it's not, I would suggest putting a strip of ribbon behind it. Tightens up the fit and makes the battery much easier to pop out.

Like so:

Oh if you haven't already, be sure to get some of the AW IMR batteries that Rob recommends. They really DO make a significant difference.

Welcome to the REO family!

 

[rickyshuman]

The service from Robert is excellent, I ordered 2- 2.1mini's yesterday and have my shipping notice this morning. Received a Reo Grand late last month and believe I had it at the door 4 days after the order was placed.
The doors on my original mini's firm up nicely when I use a label maker and date the 14500 batteries with a wrap.
Your going to enjoy the convenience and reliability of the Reo

My new mini 2.1 was just delivered! I don't forsee the door being an issue. It seems pretty tight to me. Great looking piece of hardware. I forgot to get the proper tips to some of the atomizers I ordered, but thankfully got that right on some of the others. Very cool so far...
