Stupid noob question

[Merum]

See the title for descriptor... sorry if this has been explained in depth before.

Are these bottom feed mods similar to dripping, in the sense that squeezing the reservoir bottle supplies the "dripping"? If I'm off the mark here, can somebody relate it to a more "traditional" (i.e. off the shelf) vaping experience?

TIA!

Yes, sort of. The juice feeds into the bottom ("bottom feeder" ) of the atomizer. It is, therefore, easy to keep the atty wet, and it maintains flavor like dripping. Does that help?

 

[Merum]

It does, thanks. I'm sure this varies from user to user, but can anybody give me an idea of how many "vapes" one might get from a squeeze?

Reason for the questions is trying to decide between a bottom feed mod like this or some sort of MAP tank thingy. Thanks again!

Think of it like a bottom dripper. LOL

Think of it as when you are digging a hole in the ground and the hole starts to fill up with water.... lol

Merum I have not had mine for very long but I can tell you its seems to me at least to be the most simplest to use. Personally I have been in vape heaven sense I got mine. I vape about 5-6 times and squeeze and I am good to go. Hope this helps.

Here are some pictures:

This is what the inside looks like.

Up close, you see that the bottle has a tube the runs from the bottle up to a fixed tube that connects to the atomizer connector.

Once the atomizer is connected, you squeeze the bottle, through the door (see last picture) and juice will be pushed up the tube and into the atomizer. You'll see the little holes there at the base of the atomizer. Once you see juice appear there, you're done squeezing.

The atomizer (or cartomizer) is powered by this little tab of metal that makes contact with the positive end of the battery when pushed down by the button/switch (upper right hand area...I know its hard to see

By the way...its not a stupid question. I was going to try to relate it to a "normal" vaping experience, but found I had a hard time with that. I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have more questions.

Wow....so this took a totally different turn than I anticipated... Ah, well....I get about 5-6 drags per squeeze, but its different with every kind of juice and atomizer set up you use. I also prefer to keep my atty almost flooded to avoid the dreaded burny dry atty taste that I so loathe.

Let me put it to you another way...

Buy the Reo mod of your choice, AW IMR batteries to match, charger for said batteries if you don't have one already, LR 510 and/or 306 attys from avidvaper.com or ikenvape.com, and juice from avejuice.com. Once you receive everything, prime your attys with the juice you're gonna use, charge your batteries, and fill your Reo's bottle.

Vape. Enjoy. Take pictures and post here.

If you are new to vaping and trying to quit smoking, the above items will be worth every single penny you spend. If you give the Reo a thorough test-drive and decide that it's just not the mod for you, you can recoup the majority, if not all, of your investment by reselling the above items as a Reo Starter Kit in the ECF classifieds section.

Good luck to ya.

Edit: A drip tip or two to go with your attys would be advised as well.

The REO is easier than smoking. I don't know of any other mod that can claim that.

Merum, I've been vaping for 9 months, and have (do) owned lots of pvs. I have NOT used a MAP tank, but I've used a Vapemate, the eGo tanks, and every other eGo set-up (mega attys, mega cartos, etc.), and I also own a GGTB and a little box mod. I just got a REO Mini about a month ago. I can tell you that out of ALL the pvs I've used and owned, THIS is it. This is the only and last pv you'll ever need to own. It is by far the easiest most fail-safe mod there is in my opinion. I'm sure I'll never NEED another pv. HOWEVER, I'm getting another REO because I want the REO Grand (besides the Mini I have.) I want the 6ml juice bottle and the bigger (18650) battery. The Mini does it for me, but I just want more of the best thing I've discovered in my 9 months.

Welcome to the forum Merum There are no stupid ?s feel free to ask away

I get about 5-7 drags before squonking the bottle again. I find that my Reo Grand uses less juice than dripping on my eGo with the same atty (2ohm Cisco 510).

I use more juice on the Mini, but only because I use a LR306 on it. The Woodvil uses a little more than the Grand with same atty, imo. I love them all for different reasons.

There are no stupid questions, only stupid people.
