The extra squishy (silicone) bottles have put my P67s over the moon. If there's a better vape somewhere, I don't care. I've found my sweet spot in every way possible. I knew you'd love these bottles, Deb. Anybody who has arthritis or trouble squonking...these are great. My niece switched her Grande over to one and mentioned that she loved them because of her long fingernails. All kinda reasons to switch...and so far I haven't found a down side.

Hey GalPal.

I still have never felt the need for the silicone bottles as the standard bottles work very well for me, are easy to refill, don't leak, etc. But then with strong hands and living in an "endless summer" environment they work just fine year round. Despite having a ton of spare Reo bottles on hand I've never had to replace a single one yet in 3 years of vaping Reos.

More than performance, I think it's a matter of design preference. I have both.
If you prefer a side-button for firing, then the P67 has an advantage.
If you use larger atties, the P67 has a flat top - I think 22's look better, and definitely 24mm looks better. They'll still make the door slide down instead of up, but they look good. On a grand, they both will overhand the "landing deck" surrounding the 510. So I like 18mm RDA's on my Grand.
They lock different, but both lock...

Personally, I LOVE my grand, but it's mostly sentimental - first squonker, been through a lot with me, taken a lot of abuse and never failed. But I kind of like the shape-in-hand and aesthetics of the P67 a bit more and if I was buying something new, it'd probably be that.

The early OG Reos, the 2015 Mech Woodvil's, the P67's and the fine man behind them define what Reo excellence is to me.

The P67 was my end game as soon as I got 4 of them from the first run of them. They even semi-retired my 4 2015 Mech Woodvils that were my favorite Reos before the P67's came out. Of the 5 P67's, the newest custom colored one is my Reo#1, my all time mod #1 and the one that will never be unseated from the top of the pile by anything else. With several black BF atty's for it (from 18mm-24mm sizes) it's my top looker Reo P67 as well. I don't add bling to my Reos, but I do try to give them some matchy-matchy eye appeal. So I just got some IMR battery wraps to make it's batteries matchy-matchy as well. Note that the SNEF DIY I always run in it also matches (that was just luck though).

While I'm getting pretty close to being an intractable Septuagenarian, I still have a little class left.

Thanks! I promise to look after her and love and cherish her! She will be well looked after. She is very happy with her Armor and new Silk Bottle.

Yip it was a complete fluke! I looked at my drip tips and thought... Mmmm... found one and it looks like it was made from the same block of wood! But it's acrylic.

How cool! So glad you like it

Does a p67 perform better than a grand? I was under the impression it was different only in appearance.

Also it does seem that I'm finding I can vape a bit longer on each battery than I could with my grand before getting a weaker vape

My niece switched her Grande over to one and mentioned that she loved them because of her long fingernails.

Jup there is that also. Even with the italian bottles, sometimes my nails got in the way and I was afraid I'd poke a hole in the bottle. Not an issue with these.

They're great in cold weather too. When its below freezing

I don't have to deal with that thankfully.

Yeh, refilling is the only thing about these silicone bottles that I've found the least bit challenging. I've learned that I don't need to screw the cap down too tight. If I don't, it's much easier to get started (unscrewing) when I need to refill. This is a problem I'm willing to deal with. I love these bottles.

I just put a folded paper towel over the top so if a tiny bit of juice squeezes out while I'm putting the cap back on, it's no big deal. I still remove the bottle and tube from the mod, but the tube is much easier to get back on the mod than the italian bottles!

One of my favorite ADVs used to be Blueberry Graham Waffle from www.vaporrenu.com. I finally got tired of it, but for a long time that graham cracker flavor had me hooked

That sounds really yummy. I've not yet been brave enough to get a graham cracker flavoring. I think I'm afraid I'd be too heavy handed with it. But this is a great idea to get a flavoring that already has it in there with other stuff, so I can taste how strong it should be to be balanced.

Wow that is a really gorgeous color!

Beautiful! and jup, that DT does match really well.

Uuuugh! I am so done with this freaky smoke.

We have wildfires running rampant in our province (126 of them, currently) and, while they are a hundred kilometres away or more, the smoke from them has settled in on the coast.

Here's a before/after sample of the fun...

Here's NASA's view of it...

If you squint, you can see me in the middle of it, flipping the bird.

Boy that sure looks bad, real bad.

My my I discovered cheesecake graham crust today. What a great flavor profile.

Add a little blueberry jam to that.....

A friend who lives in Spokane is getting a lot of smoke from those also. Be careful hun

Where you live is really no different from California it would seem!! Every year there are "wild fires" and then of course what follows that are "mudslides"!! I'm so glad I am in rural America now...

Yep - this year is the worst since 1958, apparently. 4000+ square km lost and counting.

Papa, it is hard for me to like your recent posts.

Is AZ gonna come early this year ?

Where are people getting the silicone bottles? I've been using the soft bottles from the REO site. But I'm curious about the silicone. But not curious enough to spend $25 or $30 per bottle, when I have about 15 mods.

$16.28 Free Shipping YFTK Replacement Dropper Bottle for SVA 75W Style BF Squonk Box Mod (5-Pack) (Silicone + SS, 5-Pack) at m.FastTech.com

These are the ones I got, but I have since seen at least one other one (similar but more expensive) using the same basic design. I think bottle makers of the world have finally caught on. Anyway, I'm really, really loving them. I started with a five pack and have reordered....

Edit: That $16 price is for a five pack.

Heh - that would literally be out of the fire and into the frying pan. We normally make a sojourn this time of year but we're so busy getting our property into shape to be able to get away (anybody wanna come help put up some deer fencing?).

As a Pollyanna thought, the sunsets are awesome...

ok........got sidetracked by nanaimo bars........

a super sweet reonaut who requested to not make a big deal over it...... recently pm'd me for my addy, cuz she wanted to send me some wire. (she included a few other surprise goodies) She also said she wanted to send me a bottle she found at FT that is so super soft and squonky that you just look at it and think squonk......it does it! Well, she wuzn't kiddin! Before I forget, here's the link

Not only are these much softer than the fib's, you seriously need to readjust squonking to the lightest touch ever. but also, I am certain they are bigger, need to see what they hold. but a metal cap screws onto metal threads......and the whole top of the bottle is thicker silicone (or whatever) so it acts like a gasket! The tube is also a lot softer, so easier to pinch for the bottle squeeze. No real need for that though, cuz you know if it's not screwed on right, and if it is.....not air escapes, so no leakage. They're a lil higher than I would expect from FT, but cheaper than fib's, and I think a far superior bottle!! I highly recommend them!

@Rule62, here's @Debadoo's post about the silicone bottles from earlier in this thread. They really are nice. Waaaay softer even than the Italian bottles on the REO site.

I can agree that there is a valid place for soft bottles for the ladies and boys, but...
