Goog morning Guys!

I did a tune up on my grand last night and learned the importance of Noalox. My Reo was having a tough time firing, so I cleaned my contacts with a q-tip and alcohol, then put a dab of Noalox on the the positive tab and.... it works perfectly again! I got so nervous that my Grand was broken I almost had a panic attack. I absolutely love this thing!

Rob, if you're reading this, I bought a Delron button cover that now slips too far down on the button to fire. It's my fault because I think I was pushing the button too hard when my Grand started acting up. Anything I can do to salvage my button cover, maybe put something between the button and cover to "shim" it?

you might try putting something like a little piece of paper in the button mod to keep it from going all the way down

Thanks, Karen :wub:
You're right. I'm just glad that my nausea has subsided. I'm still shaking and I can't feel my hands or feet, but all in all, I feel 90% better than I did 2 hours ago. Now I just need to shake the weepies....I'm on the verge of tears. :cry:

YAY....i got my vv woodvil today:toast:...it is more beautiful in person then the pics...love love love it....i was worried about squonking(?) but all is going like a charm....great vape, great flavor...feels awesome in my hand...i have one question...i like using a drip shield and it says in the manual not to use an adapter because it will void out the warranty...i put a 510 to 510 unsealed adapter on it and i got nothing...doesn't fire...i am not used to atties as on my provari, i just used cartos with a tank....so maybe i just need to buy longer atties so that the drip shield will fit?? sorry for being so ignorant....but hey...i am a REOnaut now officially...pics tomorrow... i am also hoping that the REOnaut that does the bannana dance will do one for me
This definitely calls for a banana dance

you've probably bent the firing pin you might want to consider rebuiding it the kit it only like $16-18 and takes only a few minutes to do


Good morning Reonuts:)
