I gotta say, even though I am not shopping for a mod at this point (happy with my eGo and my 510s), this has been a terrific review. I really like that there has been no spillage inside the unit; it would be a shame to have nic juice leak on that beautiful piece of work! Also I appreciate the frequent updates over time with the mod. Almost makes me want to order one!
Great job, clumsy! And lovely workmanship, redeye!

Thanks so much :) I've really enjoyed doing this review.

Honestly, I have no idea of the costs...RedEyeDancer will have to address that when they become available.

This box mod is still going strong. No leakage...I honestly have nothing bad to report at this time.

It's flavor is better than the first one..i think it must be due to the new updated tubing. It seems a much richer flavor that it's putting out.


To be continued....

Great job on this clumsy and Rey. Question--on another bottom fed mod there was chatter about yucky dark stuff going back into the bottle. Is that the case here?

Thanks

Not the case here at all.

This one pushes so little back up onto the atty, im not sure much even goes back into the tubing...but the answer to your question is Definately Not.

And...I havent mentioned before...Red boils all of the brass fittings and washes everything with a scrub brush before installing them.

And..there is no epoxy, flux or any of that crap to make contact with the juice at all.

I can say that my juice has not changed color or taste since using this mod. ANd...although i initially changed out juices in it...for right now..it holds the peppermint and its a clear juice....still clear.

One thing is certainly clear with my contact with RedEyeDancer....he wants this thing to be perfect. He doesnt want to send out something that people later on find problems with. That's why myself and Clyde are testing them so long before he even puts them up for sale.

I think he has others testing them....as well.

I'll be glad to answer any more questions. I honestly cant think of anything else that i need to mention that i havent talked about.

I'm taking it with me today on my errand run...and It's easy to be on the go with. You dont have to worry about taking a bottle of juice, batteries...I just grab it and go.

I'm still using it on the 801 atty...and i do have some of the LR 801 attys enroute....so im curious to see how those work on this. Also have a 510 LR atty...but i think i'll save them for when that 801 comes in...Id like to compare the two.

So far...I prefer the 801 or 901 atty on the Reo. I think they are my attys of choice and the 901 has been for awhile . I know people love the 510...and believe me..i have some and they do work well.....I just prefer the flavor out of the other two. Just a personal preference.

But this mod takes all, so that's not a issue.


ANyways..have a great weekend all. I'll check back in periodically to let you know how the Reo is working....and to answer any questions.


Thanks :)

Nice review!

I've had my cherry reo for a couple of days now, and redeyedancer is upping the game on craftsmanship, even compared to my clyde2801 oak box. The thing looks like it would be at home on top of a ceo's desk.

I'm with you on the 801 and 901 on this mod. The 510 works, but the taste is lacking. It was also kind of 'meh' on another mod I've tried; I don't think this atty lends itself well to bottom juicing.

But it's the 801 that I just effin' love on this mod. The vape and especially the taste when using a pg or pg/vg blend is astounding. I honestly think this is a dead heat with the homemade atty on the CarlosJuiceBox (CJB). Reo has denser vape and greater taste, the only thing is doesn't have is the CJB's mugger-punching-you-in-the-throat-and-leaving-you-to-die-in-an-alley throat hit.

In terms of durability, build quality, and especially aesthetics the Reo comes out on top.

Do you have a CJB, Clumsy? And if so, how would you compare the two?

I do have the CJB as well...It's retired. It was wonderful for awhile, but I couldnt keep it unflooded. I'm keeping it for my son who loved it. He has alot more patience than me.

I loved the CJB for a long time and its still an awesome invention.....but i have to say...the Reo is definately my favorite now between the two...because of the less problems. And..its clean inside...none of that crap and wires hanging everywhere.. ANd..its just plain purty !! And, the flavor is just the same in my opinion..which was always a big plus with CJB.

My opinion for what its worth.

Carlos tinkered with and revamped my atty on my CJB. Airy draw and lighter vape, but the flooding issue is almost non existent when vaping in the horizontal position.

But make no mistake about it, the reo will probably be alive and kicking like a mule long after my CJB dies. Clyde2801 and oak reo have withstood extended periods of my (ab)use, and other modders have called me the modbuster.

Much like how everyone was killing themselves to get a CJB at the beginning of the year, I can see a lot of people going ga-ga over the reo.

Yep.....If people don't want this...their screws are loose...Red is picky over every little thing..he wants it to be absolutely perfect. I think I almost sent him into stroke mode when i told him i was using dimes as spacers to keep that first Reo battery in....he wanted it shipped back immediately, and had me another overnighted to me. I've never heard of anyone else doing that when a problem was found.

The Reo is still vaping up a storm. My allergies are up and I cant vape alot today, So the peppermint is exactly what i need. Seems like peppermint vape soothes me for some reason....it has this calming effect or maybe i just think it does ! lol

Happy Mother's Day Everyone....If possible, Hug your mom today..and tell her that you remember her hugging you as a child and you just wanted to hug her today. That will be the best present you could ever give :)

Day 10 " The Reo "

The Reo is still vaping like a dream. I tried Clyde's suggestion of filling the juice bottle all the way full and it actually does self juice a little bit. You definately don't need to push the "pusher" as much if the bottle is full. Not that you have to push it that much anyways, but it does let off the juicing slightly.

I went out today running errands, tomorrow i work 12 hours..so today was my " running " day. Took the Reo with me....no worries of anything else having to be trugged along in my purse with me. That in itself is a significant plus to this mod.

The 801 atty is still going strong...and i do hope to get those LR 801 attys soon..I desperately want to try those LR attys on this mod.

Until then..im vaping away on peppermint in the Reo..

I also want to mention that the vapor production in this Reo is as much as my 5v mods. Not sure why..but it is.

Now..thats a definate Plus !

To be continued in the next few days on the LR attys that are enroute.....

Day 11 " The Reo "

It's day eleven with the Reo and it's still going strong. I have been using this mod for eleven days and I have to say it's one of my favorite mod's to date.

Still waiting on the LR attys to try on it...and I will post then what I think when i try them.

I shared this mod with a friend of mine today and i think he's sold on ordering one as soon as Redeyedancer gets his supplier status activated which I think should be any day now.

To be continued....

This is the website for " The Reo ".

Redeyedancer is now in the supplier status on Ecf...and is going to be selling these mod's. They are hand made by him and each and every one is unique.

I think for the price and what you are getting...it's a great mod. Its a tad more expensive than some of the juice mods sold , however, you are getting a mod that is hand made, beautifully designed and totally clean of all the gunk you see on other mods. Plus...they vape up a storm !! And....not to mention the 18650 battery that is the Bomb !

Plus you get all the adaptors that will fit any of the 901/510 attys....and the 801 that its made for.


REOS Custom Mods

I also want to add that Redeyedancer is very concerned about making people happy. He definately has revamped this mod to make it a perfect vaping machine.

You will not be unhappy with this purchase if you decide to get one.

This pretty much concludes my review..but later on i do want to add the experience I have with the LR attys....i have some being shipped and hopefully they will arrive this week :)

Happy vaping everyone

I endorse this heavily. I have been using a LR 801 on my reo since monday, and it's seriously everything I ever hoped a personal vaporizer could be. I change the battery every 2 days, the flavor and throat hit, and vapor production, are all in line with a real ....ing cigarette, and I have to change the juice bottle MAYBE once a day, if I go heavy. It's a .......ned miracle.
