I wanted to thank you all.
My journey:
I started on this long trip to here on 4/30 when I received my 510 kit in the mail. I bought it mostly because I wanted to start off cheap before I dived in with hundreds not knowing if this was for me. It worked so I knew there was more to be had so after much research I decided I wanted to try 3.7 and after much more research I went with a Silver Bullet. Wow!!! 510 in the back seat.
Was going on vacation, 10 hour car trip. I love dripping and didn't want to drip and drive that far so I bought some Iken cart's. Worked but it's no dripping. I also drive 55 miles each way to work and the dripping and driving was starting to worry me. Back to research. Bottom feeder is what I was going to try I decided.
About the same time I decided to make my 1st post on the forum. Mentioned I might be interested in a Reo and the last post was from mlinky inviting to stop by the REO forum with a link to there.
Mlinky, I thank you.
I thank the rest of you for all the info I got from there. For the loyalty you all show to this wonderful creation and for each other. I grew up in a small coal mining town where loyalty,hard work,honesty, and just plain respect for your fellow human being means everything. You all seem like a family. That is something missing from most of this country anymore. With that said, you all made me decide to finally spend my hard earned money on a REO. In fact it seemed to be a no brainer. I did look at others.
On the 10th I ordered a black body/blue door mini. Really wanted a black and gold,but none available
Knew where I was going to order my bats and what kind from all of your recommendations to everyone else over the past year. So off to Super T and ordered 3 AW IMR 14500's and another charger so I could have a backup.
Got confirmation my mini shipped Saturday. Wow!!! Rob ships that quick!!
Will I have my batteries in time????? Panic by Monday afternoon. No email yet. Monday night I jump on the Reo forum and saw someone recommended RTD vapor. Pa based. Great. Close,in stock, seemed like they ship quick so I jump on 2. Lucky I panicked. Got an email on Tuesday from Super T, out of stock on the bats.
The bats get here on Wednesday from RTD along with a note that my REO was at the PO. I charge the bats and tell the boss on Thursday I'm leaving early so I can get to the PO before it closes. He'll be all right.
Got it !!!!!
Don't have to tell you all how it is.
Thank you all again and Rob for making these.
I'm still new to all this so I hope you all don't mind if I ask a question every now and again.

This is a family, and, like you already found out, the REO is a fabulous
