Ok I have a stupid question like always :D

I've wanted a reo since I started vaping and now have the money to get one...but still can't force myself to justify the price tag...
but that aside...

What really is the difference, other than namesake, between a reo and a bottom feeder?
I want to get into dripping and love the idea of what's it called squanking?
Want something that takes an 18650 battery and can use 510/ego devices
another stupid question...if so wanted to could use normal tank systems on it?

am I totally off base but is it really just like a mech type box mod?

And with such device how much is or isn't vv important? I like my vv lol but with dripping would this really be needed/wanted?

Thanks for any and all info....
if i'm gonna spend that much money on a device imma make sure it's exactly what I want and worth the price tag.....
i know i don't need it for dripping but as said I like the convenience of the idea of the bottle being built in so no dripping to drip lol

They are tough as nails, you can get parts if something does fail, after sales service is great and they work extremely well.

The Reo is a bottom feeder. It has the battery and a juice bottle inside it. You screw a atty onto it that allows juice to flow up into it from the juice bottle, hence 'bottom fed'. Squeezing the bottle is called squonking (hope I spelled that right ;)).

You can get a Reo that takes 18650s and 510 devices. For eGo you would need to use a 510 to eGo connector.

Correct, though you can get them with VV.

That depends on you. I would get one without VV and get a RM2 RDA for it, but I am used to RDAs in mechanical mods and like that experience. Many people set them up this way. OTOH, there is nothing wrong with going the VV route. You can put any tank on these devices, but IMO it would be a waste to use a device you can't bottom feed on a bottom feeder.

If I were you I would check out the Reos Mods forum here. They are a real friendly bunch and will be able to answer all your questions much better than I can.

Good luck with it :thumb:
