I have a Trustfire TR-001 it was my first charger the thing I notice when I first got the pila is how much faster it charged batteries then the Trustfire I also think Xtar MP2 II is a good charger option I have the 6 bay version and although the little springs on the 6 bay version kind of drive me bonkers it works really well and it's nice to be able to charge 18350s, 18490s and 18650s at the same time and get everything charged at once and with the 6 bay I can set the spacers and leave them in place

Thanks folks! The 2000 are not for a Reo.


Well, yes and no. You can use a 2000 in the Grand/standard Woodvil, but you won't see much benefit. The bulk of that extra mah is available after the voltage has dropped enough to where most REO users have swapped out the battery already.

It won't hurt, but it probably won't help. They're ideally suited for VV devices that use an 18650.

For you folks needing a new or back up charger, my first charger, the Tenergy branded TR-001 has never let me down. Everything fits and it's held up well. I have no idea if there is any difference between this charger and the Trustfire branded TR-001, but it has served me well. Sometimes, batteries will come off it charged up to 4.22 or 4.23 volts, but that's not a huge concern for me. It's very inexpensive, too.

I like mine, but the Pila charges sooooo much faster! It takes me forever at home if I use that one. Heck I am charging batteries for 9 Reo's in that! I keep it going for hours. The Pila I have here at work charges fast. Love that! I do have another Pila at home but it is put up as a back-up. Might get that out and use it there.

Good morning to you too Karen! Last nights conversation about first times has me thinking of great, happy memories.


Love this song

'morning reonuts!
I think tomorrow morn i'll talk first..by the time I catch up it's just about noon!:laugh:
Anyway, I have a Robism ( that's probably already been heard,lol)
I'd emailed him last nite about possibly having ANY sorta wood mod with the side button and he responded,
" I might have, if your game."
WELLLL,you KNOW where my brain went with that! So I called him to set up a date....kiddin'!

He's such a friendly man...and a TALKER!!! He told me about his Youtube videos, we watched the video ( not together in the same room, sillies!) of his pet porcupine...I now have a totally different attitude about them, thanks to him.He plays frisbee with wild foxes?!!

And I've saved the best part for last ( sorta like you gotta eat your dinner 'fore you can have dessert)

A Reo Woodvil Cocobola will soon be MINE!! ( I have issues with my arthritic hands so I think I'll do better with a side button,
so I think he took pity on me,lol) And he also suggested that i contact Davelog about getting a cover for my grand and a thick, soft cover also for the button.

No wonder you guys think so highly of the man!:D

I wore myself out typing so much, I need to rest....:closedeyes:

Congratulations!!! Don't forget the Howards wax stuff! I'm glad I asked Alice about it because I never would have thought about it. It makes the Wood look so refreshed and pretty.

I heard that song on the radio while driving to work Monday morning! Funny she would post it! I like it too!

Howard's is the best! It will restore a shine on the older wood REO's too!
