70s just now as HRH embarks on her shopping marathon, but likely to be 80s before the day is over. No rain - all the windows open. Not many days a year this happens.

Yard work tomorrow, but to be honest, it takes no time - i bought a new pair of edging shears for my lawn (it's an English thing) and i'm itching to try them out rather than the weedeater stupidity i've endured for a year. Can anyone alive start those things without swearing?

I can start mine. But only because I quit buying those $99 throwaways, and broke down a couple years ago and got a decent one. Mine's a Husqvarna. Starts every time. I also quit using unleaded 'pump' gas, and only use Trufuel. Pricier, but worth it.

Just got some of the soft bottles, to start converting my REOs to them. First day with them. I'm still undecided whether I'm going to like them or not.
Question for those who are using them: are you pulling the tube off the nipple in the mod to fill them? Or are you just unscrewing the cap, like with the smaller stock bottles?
I love mine! I take the tube off the nipple to fill em so that I can do the pinch/squeeze each time before I put it back on, and that eliminates leaking unless there is some sort of deformity with the bottle. I have come across one bottle that doesn't play well with others. It's kinda hard to get the tube back on at first, but it doesn't take long for it to loosen up. I have one bottle that I took off every other day for wow, long dang time, prolly close to year, and have had no issues with tearing or anything, but comes off and goes on quite easily.

Do you vape 24mg or did you break that down? When I first started I vaped 24 mg. I bought a liter of 100 mg nic and immediately broke it down into 120ml glass packer bottles from amazon and then put those in the freezer. To make 24 mg unflavored juice, I'd pull out one, dump it in a jar (after it came to room temp), added my pg and vg, there's my base. Used a glass measuring cup to measure all of it. I'd actually measure 120 mls of nic to go in each bottle rather than just filling it up. I wouldn't have an issue doing this even with a youngin around, just do it in the sink, so any spills go down the drain and do it after kids are in bed and there are no distractions. But that's up to you. I'd make 500 mls of base at a time. Then just pull up my base and flavor it to make ever how much I was gonna make at a time.

he did say that in a couple months, hopefully, the P67s will be regularly stocked on the site, just like Grands are.
really great news!

Whats up fellow Reonauts? Been browsing daily but been very quiet. I have officially made it 30 days now, all is still well, and no one has died as an end result...:banana: :headbang: :rickroll:
that's fantastic hun!!

Anyone interested in a 521 tab.......scott told me earlier that lightning vapes has em for 18.99 LV15 will get you 15% off, and it was 19.47 after shipping, cuz they don't do free shipping anymore. So glad to have one of these on the way!

Good Morning Reonauts ! Twelve hours of blissful sleep ! Musta needed it.
Springlile temps in our area today, already told Mamaw this weekend is all about the yard. Time to get busy around here.

Have a Safe and Blessed Day :)
Kewl, glad you got some good sleep! Beautiful here today too. 75 and not even noon. Love having the windows open yesterday and today. Supposed to reach a high of 81, but gonna be quite a bit cooler tomorrow, in the 50s and 60s.

So I've been using an O16 (clone) for a couple weeks now, thanks to a dear friend who ordered it for me around Christmas time. At first I didn't think it would be enough air, but then I angled the top cap at the coil a little differently and that opened it up more. Wow, I really do love this! Much easier doing the z coil than doing duals in the derringer. Great flavor, really really nice little atty. Been using it exclusively for bout 1.5 weeks. If I stay enamored with it, I'll likely get a couple more of them. Am giving my Pico to a friend though, tomorrow if I see her then. I mostly only use my Reos and I don't need two regulated mods. It was kind of an impulse buy. She and her b/f love Picos, so it will have a good home.

I've had them for a few days now, and getting used to them. I called Rob the other day, to get some tips on using them, and also to find a source for some extra tubing.
I asked him if he fills by pulling the tube off, or just removing the cap?
He told me that before using the bottles for the first time, he just 'dry fits' them, by screwing the cap on and off a few times. After that, he just fills by unscrewing the bottle, and leaving the tube and cap in the REO, because the tube is pretty hard to get on, at first. So far, ive had no problem with leaking, as long as the cap is good and tight, and I don't get juice on my fingers. I just take a new bottle, do the 'pinch-squeeze' thing a few times, install the tube, and cut it to length. From then on, I'm just unscrewing the bottle to fill.
Rob did give me a source for the tubing, and I have a few feet coming, in case I ever need to replace it.

Light summer rain. Mostly passed the heat now. Doubt we'll get more 100s.

I love the rain and the snow!! I know that sounds a little off, but when you spend 30+yrs in a single season part of the country, its nice to have all 4 back and I love the one that is cold and wet... It hit 60° here yesterday and was able to get in the flower beds and clean up the residuals from before winter... Filled up the fire pit, just wish it wasn't half wet so I could've burnt it. Its always nice to get an early start on the year.

Do yourself a favor and go the Home Depot and get yourself an Echo... One of the best trimmers on the market. Be sure to get the straight pole one though, you'll be greatful you did shortly down the road. Mine's going on its 3rd year now and gets used almost daily, (I do landscaping as a side gig through the summer around here), and starts every time 1 pull... You do need to do regular maintenance on them though and they will last as long as 5 of the cheap B&D trimmers for sure...

I went through 3 or 4 Ryobi 'throw aways' before getting my Husqvarna. I would get a year or two out of them, before having trouble. Of course, here in Florida, we use stuff like trimmers year 'round. Echos and Stihls are also good products. Homelite products were also good, years ago. But they seemed to have become focused more lately on the 'homeowner-occasional use' market, rather than 'professional grade'.
