I'm with Taki. Digg'in the AFC Cyclones but, the Reactor is showing a lot of love right now........( duals built to 0.6 with Cotton Bacon)
I've been reading all the stuff about rayon, KGD, Cotton Bacon, etc. I've been using cotton balls (and am happy with them), but the thought occurred to me that anything with 'Bacon' in the name can't be all bad!

Mmmmmm, Bacon.

That is all.

try it - I haven't, but if it's as good or better than KGD it's worth a shot even if you're perfectly happy with cotton balls. I was too, but after trying KGD once I can't see myself using a cotton ball again. simply because it wicks so much better and it's easier to work with, and no break in period either :)

Anyone use a kayfun prior to reo? Curious as to who has switched and why. I don't see how it could get any better, but I am very new to vaping, but was lucky to start out the right way with proper training. I started with a kayfun thanks to my friend who taught me everything I needed to know in regards to building and ohms law. I have a svoemesto kayfun lite plus v2, stingray x, kayfun lite plus clone and a stingray clone with two sony vtc5's. Throw some organic cotton between my .8-1 ohm coil and it's heaven. I have a origen v2 dripper and a 3rd kayfun lite on the way as well, but this forum is always talking about Reo. Why should I consider a reo? Not knocking it at all just want to know the pros and why so many swear by it.

haha :D

I bought a REO because I was so sick of fiddling with the Kayfun and tanks in general. They're a subpar vape that takes a lot of luck and/or practice to get the wicking right, no leaks, no dry hits. Now, if somebody isn't having an issue and is content with their vape, do I encourage them to get a REO? No but many would. I won't. Whatever keeps you off cigs is the key - stick with it. Only move to other devices if you want to. You, in no way, need to. I needed to. And the REO took 5 minutes to transform my view of vaping.

There is nothing easier. You get the superior flavor of dripping, without having to drip. No need to drip. You squeeze a 6ml bottle, it feeds juice through a tube up into your atomizer and saturates the wick and coil. Vape, vape, vape. Squonk (squeeze) the bottle again. Vape, vape, vape.

Better flavor - better vapor - better nicotine delivery - and it is a different paradigm of vaping. No tanks - no dripping - but a fresh hit everytime.

Mechanical - no wires - very little to go wrong. Virtually indestructible units. Battery goes dead? No need to buy a new pro thingy - buy a new $10 battery good to go.

REO is simple. I will never vape anything other than bottom feeders, ever again.

But that's me - I have the biggest case of Reoitis of 2014. Others will confirm that :D

again - you like your Kayfun? stick with it. I'll even send you mine.

The Sloth mans trials and tribulations with the KF are well documented within the Nicoticket archives. LOL

With that being said, A well built Kayfun can be a mighty fine vape and I still rotate and use all of mine on a daily basis. While dripping is the best in terms of versatility of the build along with the best of flavors and vapor production, for some, the act of dripping can be a PITA especially while on the run. For me, and the reason I finally decided to go with a Reo (actually now four! :?:) is that it allows me to enjoy the best of both worlds and much like the Kayfuns, I can just load it and go. The units are very well made and most durable and the flavors are amazing. The Reo just flat out supplys the best of both worlds.

When I leave the house, I do so with a Provari/ Kayfun in one hand and a Reo in the other...........;)


P.S If you are thinking Reo, think dripping from the bottom!

Where'd you get that dt? I must have one.

The original TOBH tips have gone the way of the unicorn but Vaping Tech carries a 3 piece clone set (which I have as well) and I can honestly say that I can not tell the difference between the two but unfortunately they are currently sold out. In my opinion, the TOBH is the best non- drip tip out there. It only has a 2mm reduction and there is plenty of room to punch it out .80 mm more.

Thank you both. Just watched a couple reviews on you tube and understand the way the device functions a lot more. I am very intrigued and based on my current vaping spending spree, will probably end up with one , two, or three of them :). The only thing that I might not like would be the size with drip tip. I don't see myself using a 357ish cartomizer and will definitely be using a bottom feeding rebuilable atomizer like the cyclone. The reviews I watched talked about the heat from a smaller drip tip, so a longer one has me thinking about how it would travel in my pocket. While my kayfun with 18650 is large, it is not uncomfortable in my pocket. Wearing shorts with it is a whole different story but still manageable. Thanks again Sloth and distortoblotto. When is the anticipated latest model coming out?

LOL! :D

I have a tru-stone driptip from driptipdesignz on one REO, and actually a KFL driptip on the other. I like both but the tru-stone cools the vape down more because it's longer and I really prefer that - will order a second one soon for Raekavik (the other REO - yes I name them)

I might add with one hand and no unscrewing of bottles.

And yet again another hint on something else I will end up buying. Mother of pearl black looks good :) go away Sloth!

That's the one I gots! LOVE it! Looks great on Gothics.

LOL I know how you feel brother. Merely mentioning it to you got me to thinking about a new one for Raekavik, so I'm looking through them now...actually intrigued by some of the Resin driptips they've got. A couple of those would look great on Raekavik - anyone ever used a Resin driptip, how does it feel?

I like longer drip tips 3/4" plus and even the Reo Grand with a RM4 is less than 5.5 inches tall, very pocket friendly.

The resin is very smooth and hangs well on the lip.


Did someone say Mother of Pearl?........;)

Great minds, simply great minds! :toast:

Awesome I may just do it!! Like the sound of "resin" anyway ;)

Wondering one other thing - do tru-stone and/or resin get cold like metal? no way I can use anything that gets super cold during the winter here :(
