The Reo's are nice but to me these look so much nicer and work every bit as good if not better;

Just wondering why you found it necessary to post this in a review of the REO???

Based on the video review of the Kaji Ali there, the panel opposite of the switch comes off to reveal the battery. It is a thin piece of wood and doesn't look too durable. My REO, on the other hand, doesn't seem to have any "weaknesses" that I can see. I'll be vaping my REO til...well, for a REALLY long time!

Review follow up number 2.

The Reo just gets better every day. I fill it with juice and pop in a fresh battery and I'm done messing with it for the day. I get curious questions about it but I've had no problems and I vape it everywhere. I got some furniture polish cloths and gave it a rub down the other day just because I felt like giving it some love. It looks the same and vapes the same as the day I got it.

I've gotten really good at telling from the draw when it needs more juice. I was a bit heavy handed on the juice button at first. I found that it is easier to clear a flooded atty by holding my Reo in my hand and snapping my wrist and any excess juice flies out and then the atty is perfect with no blowing. I got quite accurate with this and could do it neatly onto a paper towel on my patio, but I haven't had to do it as often now. I can keep my atty at the perfect level of juice almost all the time and I rarely flood it or have it too dry.

I didn't intend my review thread to become an Ali vs Reo type thing. I think the Ali is beautifully made and I seriously considered getting one. I still might so I can have two flavors to choose from easily or I might get a mini Reo to switch out.

I love the 6mL juice reservoir on my Reo though. I sometimes work 16 hour days and I've never run out of juice or battery. I don't know if they have been discontinued or not, I'm so glad I was able to get one before he started the mini line.

I found a Crown Royal bag that fits my REo perfectly. I wasn't too keen on the idea of taking it to work with me, and still plan on snagging a mini Reo or the larger aluminum version when I can afford it, but for now, the little CR bag protects it quite nicely. I was an 808 user and the Reo was my first stty experience, so it took me a little while to get really efficient with the pump and not flooding it, but now that I've mastered it I really enjoy it too the fullest. This truly is the perfect vape machine.
