Well I got my order of parts tonight. I started by doing a check on each one, first by just the ones I could recognize visually. (They were not labeled) I got every thing sorted out and put in baggies and labeled. Then I got to the small baggie that had all the tiny screws in it. The grub screws were easy to pick out, but the other 2 were tough ones. Spring screws for metal REO's, and spring screws for P67's. I actually had to take a screw out of my P67, and look at them with a magnifying glass, in order to see the difference. Once I got that done, I had ordered a few springs for my woodvil's, and thought I had ordered the screws as well. Well they just were not there, so I called and left a message about them missing. I was about to send them a e-mail about it as well. While I was looking at the invoice for the order number, I realized that I never ordered them. I had plenty of the screws, but was short on the springs. I called them back and left another message saying I had everything. I really felt like a more on having to call them back, but all is good. :)

No mods on this order, just parts to keep the ones I have going. :|

I found one that fit. It's a bit of a squeeze but worth it.
Hard to ID, since I just had it in a box full-0-bottles, but I THINK it might be a "small" from I'M, which I found for like $10 at both Enushi and Vapinart.
So I ordered one of those...and might just grab another mini...lol, I'm hopeless.


Has anybody found a softer bottle for a Reo Mini?
I know people used the little square "soy sauce" style - I had and hated one of those.
I'm wondering if there's a short enough silicone type...

Those look a bit like the "soy sauce" style - are they kinda stiff? Square is nice, if they squonk good too, they'd be good.
For $2, I'll probably throw em in a cart and check...

they are silicone, but thicker than some others

also these https://www.fasttech.com/p/9615735

both the same, and both silicone, despite listing saying PE

or mine were

I bought a 10 ml needle tip,, its softer yet still firm.. I will need to get a flat cap to make it fit or create a silicone plug. Meantime I am shopping a few bottles suggested by others


10ml Dropper Bottle w/ Needle Tip

S'cuse me Reonauts, there is something I must do...

@KentA @beckdg @Debadoo

I've been missing you...I hope you're out there, I hope all is well.
You are so thoughtful! I’ve been thinking about some of our earlier Reonauts too. Thank you!

Too funny that we are also talking about soft bottles. I have a fee for my Grands and P-67’s and was wondering where I got them......more pondering.......
Great to see you @Vapefiend!

Hey sorry I’ve been gone guys. Been house hunting it’s a nightmare. Lease is up at condo, the owner wants to sell. Dealing with showing my place, looking for houses, working, parenting, not going crazy..:confused: It’s been super stressful lately.

I guess my love for guitars keeps me sane. Here’s the beauty that kept me busy for a while and I finally finished restoring.

We’ve missed you but know how life gets “lifey” at times. Hope things come together soon for you. Keeping a good thought. If you need to rest on some shoulders, we’ve got a few here for you. Wow!! What a gorgeous instrument! Good job!

Hi gang, Tis that time of year for me to get new batteries for my Grands and P-67’s. The last time I went with Samsung 30Q (pink) and had no difficulty with firing. I had typically done the AW’s but they were out of stock (fire in factory).
Just checking if there’s another type I should consider. I typically run my coils only as low as .7 or .8.
One would think i would understand mahs etc by now but Ive come to rely on your brilliance instead. :)

I'm also really due for new batts as well.. been a couple of years and I've found myself needing to sand the tops of the batts this week due to putting from arcing. Terrible low hits on a newer reo! Hah . All from the batts.

your 30q's are rated as 15Amp constant discharge, 3000mAh, 0.7ohms gives 6Amp discharge, 0.8ohm = 5.25Amp
I use LG HG2 rated as 20Amp constant discharge, 3000mAh,
I believe you are good to go with the 30Q's, I just always give myself as much headroom as I can.
Prices are about even although you may prefer pink to brown !
Ohm's law | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators is a good calculator, input 4.2volts, your coil resistance and it will calculate the current.
