Tell me About The REO's

[Lo0nyt0on]

So I posted this then was Redirected to this Sub forum...

And ive been told time and time again "BUY A REO"

And im tempted......

But Why..... WHY A REO.... no Question..i love the look.....

But Why? I Love the Big Vape I get From Mechs...but I also want something I can Use without Rebuilding coils And Dripping ever 4 Drags.... And I want a battery To Last me longer then 2 Hour.

Im a cloud Chaser.. But I want something that Gives me more....My Nicotine..


So here I am... staring at the REO's online...tempted to buy....

But Befor I Decide to Go with it..... Please... tell me the Pro's and Cons...

Should I Go VV or Mech


I hate carrying Napkins, a ton of extra E juice,Dripper, Extra Wick & Wire, Clippers,
I hate Dripping ever 4 Drags....

I want Simple, good vapor, Durable, EASE OF USE,




I wish I could buy a Wood version but Are the Metal Versions Just as good?

I like the reo Grand's...not the Mini Size is not an Issue so it it will get me long battery life throughout the day I am fine with the bigger Mods.



But before I decide..... Why should I Drop 150 on a Reo Rather then a Magneto,Zen,GMS,Evic, ect ect


im a 18650 Lover Btw...so that's another reason the reo has Shown up


So to you REO Lovers and Know it all's

Show me the Way! and tell me the Reason!



WHY A REO!



Ps: I currently Vape a K100 With a IGO-w and Carry 3 extra betteries,wire,wick,siccors,cippers,extra juice, hypodermic needle, battery charger, napkins, plyers, and im tierd of doing so.......



Gracias!

No one owns stock in REOs so the answer to why so many people suggest REOs should be obvious...they are that good. A Grand will get you a 6ml juice bottle and a big 18650 batt for all day use. Btw they work great with regular attys...no cons IMO.

You can run over a reo with a truck and it'll still work, literally. You won't have to drip every 4 pulls but you will have to squonk. You're gonna have to build coils no matter what mech you get but I can build a coil with 28ga kanthal and it'll last at least two weeks if you not abusing it. I change my cotton wicks every day sometimes twice a day just cause I like a fresh wick. Takes less than 5 mins unless I decide to give it a bath then it'll take, oh, about 6 mins.

Reomizer 2 is the easiest atty I've ever put a coil on. You can get as big or as little a vape as you want depending on how you set it up.

Reos feel good in the hand and they turn heads at the vape shops. Sometimes I don't even pull it out when I'm in a vape shop cause I know I'll have to explain all about it cause there is always somebody gonna ask and sometimes I just want to get in and out of there.

Be careful cause if you don't watch it, the reo'll nic buzz yo' azz quick.

If you read back through your own post you will have your question answered. It is what you are seeking.

This following snip from your post sums it up though...

I want Simple, good vapor, Durable, EASE OF USE

This is every bit of vaping gear I leave the house with every day. No backups, no extra supplies, no bottles of juice.. nothing. Just a REO Grand with a full bottle and a full battery. Period.

The REO is consistent and reliable. If you spend time commuting, the REO is ideal -- no napkins, no dripping. The construction is top notch -- if you drop it on concrete (which I've done), it will survive AND continue to work flawlessly. With a Grand and an 18650, you will vape all day without switching out batteries.

While there are many MOD options currently on the market, the REO offers the gold standard in vaping.

This is so true. It's so comforting to know you don't need a bag full of accessories when you walk out the door. Grab the Grand and go.

What kind of build are you vaping, Loon? Sub? Micro?

 

[Xobeloot]

I started vaping back in 2008, went back to smoking, and went back to vaping May of this year. I was so happy that I wasn't smoking that I started spending all my cigarette money on "high-end" mods. I have a juggernaut, a tsunami, an Ibaloi, a legacy, a paps lux, a nemesis... blah blah blah.

I finally caved and bought a reo. Within a couple days I had sold my paps lux and nemesis and bought a second reo. I am selling off the rest of my tubes one by one. I'll be buying a VV reo shortly to add to my two grands.

You want simple, durable, ease of use... I am military, and other than my Legacy, I was always scared to bring my mods to work. God forbid they got scratched or dented or any of that other namby-pamby BS.

The REO is a tank. I just went through combat trauma lanes on Friday. Dirt, mud, water traps, smoke, etc... When it was done, I took off my nasty sweaty helmet, reached in my shoulder pocket, squonked my grand and vaped away.

I will never buy another tube mod.

 

[Lo0nyt0on]

I build my coils at almost sub ohms... last one i made its was at 1.1

If i have to build i will... i see alot of pics that it has a little bottle in the mod...whats that for? Dose that feed automaticly ti the wick? Or is it for storing.

My build is a k100 with a igo-w with usualy around a 1.1 ohm coil. I use 28Gauge kanthol and 3mm silica.

Im just yierd if dripping all the dam time...i want a simple set up that will last me

I want a mod built like a zippo.. i fill it..throw it in my pocket..and i KNOW it will work when i need it and work well.

Kiss method if u will (keep it simple stupid).

If i could gind a Mech mod...or even a VV that would just let me fill it..leave the house with maby just 1 extra battery (jic) and it be hassle free and qork when i need it...and give me good vape..ill spend $200 if i have to.

Do i have to use an RBA on it..or is there a good alternitive that will give me good vape and be aimple?

 

[supertrunker]

Grand and a Reomiser2 RBA - buy them both at the same time. 5 mins to re-coil. I run mine at about 1Ω coils - i carry with me one spare battery.

You cannot break it (a few of us have really done our best). I use mine all day every day as i have for months. With the most basic of maintenance - it keeps on.
It's possible to use cartos on it - or drippers if you like - but with the onboard bottle, you get that 'just dripped' taste without the need to be constantly messing about.

eVic - wife has one! i worry if that thing hits the carpet!!

The vv is nice for sure (i keep that for use at home) but the grand is a workhorse and a great one at that.

[pdib]

basically, if you take every sentence you've written that has "I want a", and substitute "I've got a"; you've just described you . . . with a REO Grand. You are the perfect vaper for this most excellent device. You can put cartos, classic atties on it; but the RM2 rba is so killer and so easy and fast to build in, that I would have to recommend it.

Your juice is in that bottle. You give it a little squeeze every now and then, and you're carrying 6ml of juice that magically saturates your wick and stays as fresh and delicious as fruit on the tree.

 

[Xobeloot]

There is a small hole in the mod that apply pressure to the bottle (squonk) and it feeds the juice up into the atty or carto.

THe amount of squeeze it needs is based on whether youy are using atty (+wick type, etc) or carto.

I just got the hang of using it w/ a carto today. I was squeezing too hard and flooding the carto. I pretty much alwaus build my own coils, but carto is a completely viable option as well. If using a carto, you just cant go all "mongo SMASH!" on the bottle when you squonk.

 

[Crash Moses]

The little bottle does feed the atty but it's not automatic. You have to squeeze the bottle (they're soft) which forces the liquid up a tube to the atomizer (which has a hole in the bottom specifically for this purpose). It's the convenience of a tank with the flavor and vapor of a dripping atty.

You don't need to use RBAs (although a good micro-coil will last for weeks. You only need to replace the cotton wick every few days. Very easy to do.). You just need a bottom feed atty. Empire Mods sells a 1.5 ohm bottom feed atty that works great with the Reo.

It sounds like what you're looking for is the Reo. But be careful...once you have one...you're going to want two.

Hmmm....never tried the "Loon" build. Sounds interesting!

Well.. there have been subtle improvements Rob has made over the years, to get to the current REO we now know and love. Would it be fair to call the things he changed.................................... ex-cons??

That ^ is the answer!

Seriously afaik there are no cons to buying a Grand or any type/size/color REO for that matter.
The pros are everything the REO does and the way it looks are perfect. imo

 

[Lo0nyt0on]

Nice, glad we were able to sway you to the reasonable side of the fence . Once you have it in hand you'll love it. Even if you don't these things hold their value better than a Honda and sell like hotcakes in the classies.

Keep an eye on Rob's site too, reosmods.com

The blem units he sells (none up right now) are around the price of what you'll normally see used ones in the classies going for, they are brand new, and you don't have to worry about having to clean the last persons juice out of it.. and I hear it is near impossible to find the blemishes on them. I have not bought a blem unit but I did get a used one off the classies and I got pretty lucky with the deal, the last owner treated it very very well and cleaned it just as well before trading it.
