The Noob Guide to purchasing a REO mod, Batteries, Charger & Accessoies

[super_X_drifter]

I get many questions asked on "what do I recommend to get started with a REO". This segment will cover the REO, REO Accessories, batteries, Chargers and Metering devices in a video tutorial as I take you to the websites and describe what _X_ recommends.

I will shoot a future segment on rba recommendations, and the small kit of tools, wire & wick needed to pull off solid builds time after time.

Good job X. Should help a lot of new Reonaughts

 

[JC Okie]

Good, good, good job, super_X. This needs to be stickied.

 

[Rat2chat2]

as always

Another "must watch" for folks just getting started! Great job, dude

 

[Papa_Lazarou]

This soooo has to be stickied. Great job, as usual, supe.

Just a rule of thumb I call "Unsure's Law" Always have batts/charger, juice, attys etc. in house prior to receiving your REO. I can't imagine anything worse that staring at a brand new REO and not being able to use it.

Thanks ya'll. that one was different / fun

Just curious, Russ,but you seemed concerned about how the video of the screen would turn out, does your camera (or ANY camera) have an HDMI input, so you could feed the screen directly to it?

 

[Fishcakes]

Very cool x. Should help alot of people out

 

[resqx]

That's a killer idea my man I do believe there is a HDMI style connector interface on my rig.

It's too bad I already shot the RBA supplies part just like I did the REO part though. I plan to mix it in with the studio portion I'll shoot tomorrow night once Mrs _X_ and I are needing nothing more from each other that can't wait until morning

You know, though, I can't have my vids coming off too overproduced and professional - that just ain't me . People'd rebel

Thanks for the suggestion my man AP. How's that whistling atty working out bro?

Turns out, the whistle was just because I was being too gentle with it, having been a diehard MTL'er. I just needed to vape it like I MEAN it, and the whistle goes away.

And you're right, you don't want to come off TOO polished in those vids, it would detract from the "real" atmosphere.

Ever thought about making a video on how to make a video? (just kidding, but keep em coming, young man, you're doing a GREAT service to REOville)

Nice work X.

Another great vid Russ thank you for sharing and helping the green folks out

 

[mommabird62]

Great vid SXD! Much needed for new REO owners. Only reason that I didn't screw up my first grand order was a phone call to Rob bugging him [emoji6] I was completely confused and he graciously took time to guide me through my first one.

This video should eliminate that. I agree that it should be stickied [emoji1]
