The REO Lounge (was...The REO grand opening sale)

I just added a few menthol drops to a 3 mil bottle of Havana Gold. Not bad. With the menthol drops, the throat hit seems a lot stronger (better for me), but the flavor is just not as good as Havana Gold straight up. I'm a menthol man, so -- coming from me -- that's strong praise for the Havana Gold.

C.J,

You just wait until you mix the BB with that H/Gold and then you come back here and post and let us know what that combo is like, hahaha it rocks man and itrs strong with TH t boot

WOO HOO!! Just placed my first order with Alien Visions E-Juice ! I can't wait to try it now that I've been reading all your rave reviews!

What did you order? I hope some Boba's Bounty. I just got some today and it's fabulous!

The 18650 AW batteries are protected. Will those fit the GrandE? I need to order two more now that I'm getting a second GrandE for DH. Think I'll order two Ultrafire and not let DH know his GrandE has arrived. Ultrafire is what I usually use.

BTW..... they are coming from Oklahoma.

Oh S*HT, Jack and Man. I just lost a huge bla bla about migraines and acetomycin and aspirin.... Never mind.

Man, thanks for the recommendation. I'll check to see if it is available for Kindle. Much easier to read Kindle without getting neck strain.

I love my Kindle, but it is kind of hard for me to read at night. I bought a "Kindle Kandle" light for it and am not terribly impressed. It lights up the top part of the screen, but there's just not enough light for me at the bottom. Yesterday I got a new light and as soon as I can remember to buy some AAA batteries, I'll give it a try. On the whole, though, I much prefer reading my Kindle than paper paged books.

Alice, I'm guessing the AWs will work. According to Sterno's measurements, I don't expect there to be a problem. The difference in width is almost negligible. The length of the AW is only roughly .6 mm shorter, and I'm willing to bet the battery spring will be long enough to compensate for that slight difference. I'm hoping to find out for sure next week.

I don't know what I was thinking. I ordered two AW batteries; way too expensive. They will fit in the GrandE won't they?

Will do! I can't wait to try that out, mwa!

Thanks MX. I'm feeling more confident about the AWs now.

I think the AW's are a bit shorter and will work fine. I have some IMR 14500 that are the same size as the AW's and they work in the Mini so it should work.

 

[CJLite]

Cool! I plan to try out my BB tomorrow too. I'm gonna' also try what mwa suggested and do a 50/50 mix of BB and HG. Tomorrow is gonna' be BB day.

I got some BB I will give that a try tomorow.

I agree wholeheartedly, bro. It's making me want to try out his fruit flavors too. I saw a video review of Smokey trying out Porphy's Strawberry Cooler, and Smokey could barely contain the excitement. He looked like a little kid in a candy shop. lol.

I love Porphy's strawberry cooler. It's been my #1 juice now since he first started in business. That said, my 3rd favorite choice (behind the strawberry cooler and the blueberry (All VG) has been his banana slurry. Well, when I tried the banana with the Reo Mini, it tasted so wonderful that it has at least for now tied strawberry for 1st place. The banana slurry tasted "nice" on the 510 and the eGo and the mini vapestack; but on the Reo, it Shines! Great stuff!

What did you order? I hope some Boba's Bounty. I just got some today and it's fabulous!

Caramel, Strawberry, Butter Rum, and Havana Gold. MX has some BB...I'll give that a try tomorrow. Not a big fan of tobacco flavors now that I'm not smoking....go figure...lol.

Ok I see quite a few want black with a different color door. Save me a Black on Black ok?

I have the Kindle 3G and bought a cover for it with a built-in light. It totally rocks. It is a bit brighter at the top than at the bottom, but not enough to distract me or keep me from reading the bottom of the page in the dark. I love it. And same here: it's Kindle all the way for me. Now I'm spoiled by the built-in dictionary and all that jazz. I don't wanna' read books made out of paper anymore. lol.

EDIT: Plus it's just plain cool being able to carry around about 3,500 books in a gadget that's about the same size as a paperback. lol.

I did a lot of research about the light. I've got a drawer full of book lights going way back. I read on Amazon that the people were getting better light putting in the spare batteries that came with it. Mine is fine although it could be a little brighter towards the bottom. I do strain a bit last couple of lines. Any brighter though and it may be too bright. I think they need to improve a lens covering the LED. As long as I'm in my recliner I use my regular light but when DH is trying to go to sleep I use the Kandle. I ordered extra batteries when I bought my Kindle. I think around $5 for 6.

DH got his Kindle a few months ago. He never can make it through books but is finishing books and journals now that he has the Kindle. He just had cataract surgery on one eye (the other was 10 years ago). He reads the Kandle more easily than computer or paper, less eye strain.

We agreed that I didn't "need" a Kindle although I read a lot of books and I get hand and neck pain reading so much. I sneaked and ordered a white one (his is black). The day it came in, I was picking him up at the airport and he said, "I know what we agreed but I think you should order a Kindle." Whew..... I didn't have to hide it from him.

We both have been obsessive book collectors all our lives. A couple of years ago we cleared out many, probably tons. We only saved a few cookbooks, that we both collect but who needs cookbooks much, any more, with Internet. DH did just comment, the other night, that he wished he had his mother's venison recipes. She would be 105 now. I think I still have here recipe box and may go see if it's in there to surprise him.

We are down to only a few hundred books now and I so look forward to getting rid of many more. I have many of Terry Pratchett's books, paperback, but from here on out it will be Kindle for as many as are available. And I'll lean towards Kindle available books for most reading. DH gets the NYTimes and doesn't have to be near a computer to read it.

So many wonderful things about the Kindle. Love the dictionary too.

Ours are the 3G, too. Free cell signal delivery just about anywhere. And the battery just keeps going and going and going ...... as long as you turn the wireless off.

I'm waiting on a case until further notice. DH doesn't clasp his Kindle to the leather case; rather takes it out and reads it bare. I think I prefer that and that's the main reason I didn't order the leather lighted but it sounds great. From what I have read, there are cons to just about every book light.

Hahahahahaha!!!

Hey, you reminded of something else about the Kindle cover with built-in light. You don't need any batteries for the light. The power for the light comes from the Kindle itself, and it doesn't drain the Kindle batteries enough to make a significant difference in battery life.

I read on Amazon that the people were getting better light putting in the spare batteries that came with it. Mine is fine although it could be a little brighter towards the bottom.

Hey got a technical q for Wooden REO owners, which 801 atty are you using?

And has anybody punched a hole into one of them yet? I've blown 3 so far and would like recommendations on where to buy them.

So far only tried LR 801's and find the draw way too tight (wondering if thats a LR issue).

Thanks all.

 

[banjo]

Received a package from Robert today. No! not a REO. One of my Mini orders was short an atty, and he sent it out by itself - now that is service. Thank You Robert!

Polished for me. When I get it I'll make it brushed.
