Happen to know any where to buy an authentic?

I got mine from Vapinart. But I see they are currently listed as out of stock.

 

[Vapefiend]

I see that as well. oh well.

The divo does look enticing so does the graal. As for the viper and no fear I don't think I'd like them.

Of the two, I think the edge goes to the graal. It has afc and a more versatile build deck. Awesome flavour atty.

The divo is good, too. I just find it a tad restrictive.

 

[Vapefiend]

I can't wait to try the cyclone I should have it tomorrow or Thursday I wonder how long it will take to ship to Tom and get back.

Having said all that, it's a personal peccadillo of mine, I freely admit

it works for you, that's what counts!

It was beautiful, truth be told, especially since it was a novelty.

Driving in a city with people who have no clue how to deal with it, however, is another story.

wow that first photo was gorgeous. We don't have super pretty things like that much in Texas. We do have pretty things, but that just looks like old timey England to me.

I bought a couple of the ss bottles from Rob. Is there a trick to getting them to squonk? There seems to be an air leak.

What others have said is great advice. I personally find that it's easier to take the whole tube off the Reo when I refill than it is to try to screw it back on with the tube still attached. The tube is difficult to get on the first few times, but it will go, after that it loosens up a bit. I've only ever had one problematic bottle. I fill the bottle about to where the the bend is at the top, or just below that. Put the cap on, making sure to not cross thread, that's easy to do with these. Pinch the tube and squeeze the bottle each time I fill it up. Put it back on the Reo. Other than one problematic bottle, I've never had an issue with any leaking at all by doing the pinch squeeze each time I fill it.

HRH and i moved house last year and i threw away a load of clothes @Papa_Lazarou.

But best of all was an entertaining legal situation i had with my ex-apartment managing company as they tried to screw me for being a smoker and claiming cleaning costs, in particular an ozone cleaner!

They went after my credit record and all that guff (hey, i have the house and the car, so i don't give a stuff!) until i wrote this - at which point they said there had been an error and everything was paid. Here's an excerpt -

"However, the most disturbing part of the alleged bill is a charge for $280.00 for 'Ozone machine use for cigarette smell'. This fictitious charge is only $20 different from your total demanded and so the major issue here.

There's no indication how this charge was arrived at and my own research indicates that one can buy such a machine for less money than this and rent one for 7 days for under $99.

You'll notice that there is no insinuation that my wife and I left the apartment in disrepair or dirty and in fact we went to great lengths to leave it clean and presentable. To my knowledge the only smoker in the block was the elderly lady that lived above us.

If you had a copy of the lease from back in 2007 when I moved in, you would see that at that time I was indeed a smoker and it was rented to me as such. What [name of ........s] never realised is that my wife and I both stopped smoking in 2012! Else they would never have tried such a ruse.

So, I put it to you very simply, that if you think you can walk into a house where nobody has smoked for 4 years and detect a cigarette smell that requires the use of the most expensive type of machine of its kind ever made, then I urge you to tell it to a judge."

Good on ya for tellin em off. It's amazing what companies try to get away with. I had a lady hit me in a parking lot one time. The rear quarter panel was peeled and kinda rolled up on my van. She had about 1.5 inch smudge on her fender that looked like someone just ran an eraser through slightly went paint on it. Her ins co wrote me, billing me for 359.00 damage, (this was late 80's) and said if they didn't get payment by xxx they start proceedings to take away my driver's license etc. I wrote em and told em that first of all, no way would that cost that much to fix, 2nd, I was not cited as being at fault, 3rd, there are no right of way laws in a parking lot, which is WHY no one was cited as being at fault. Described the damage to my van, told em if her smudge would cost that much, my van would cost 3-4 times more at least.......and if they ever bothered me again, they could pay for my van! Never heard from em again. But I'm sure a lotta folks just get scared and buckle under threats like that and pay em. Makes me so angry when companies try to intimidate folks that don't know better.

Going to Mexico, Cancun, for a month in March. Never been before when I vaped and have a question. If Mexican customs will be concerned about my ejuice. I plan on bringing 1 litre with 500 ml in it and 2 smaller plastic bottles with 100 ml in each. I was told never to fill the bottles up. I am also going to make up a small tool box and cotton/coil, pre-made. Just want to be prepared. Any advise would be appreciated.

Sounds like you've gotten good advice. I don't know nuttin about, so will just wish you a safe fun trip!!

It just shipped I'm so lucky for once in my life lol

yea!

I've been interested in an 0-16 and have heard of the divo also vicious ant? I will check those out! I feel like an o-16might be my next quest

I would definitely recommend the O16. I have a clone, they are 9.02 at FT. It's amazing. I always loved my derringer clones (rm8) but had to build dual coils on them. I didn't think the O16 would have enough air for me, but with both of the largest holes open and angled at the coil, it does. That angling was very important to me. Really opened up the airflow. One reason I'd highly recommend it is because you can shut it down to nearly nuthin as far as airflow, or open it up quite a bit if you vaping style ever changes. I never thought I'd like DL vaping, but once I got used to it, I loved it. The O16 with a single Z coil has so much throat hit and flavor, it just made my beloved derringers seem anemic!

What's the benefit of using the metal top reo bottles vs plastic?

Those are the ones we were talking about pinching and squeezing with. I love em! So much easier to squonk than the 6 ml bottles. I have hand issues sometimes. I used one of OB's p-67 for a week when we were in florida. It had a 6 ml bottle in it and I couldn't get it off to put my bottle on without fear of ripping the tube or something, so I just used her bottle. But after using the easy squeeze (FIB = fancy italian bottle) it was soooooo hard for me to squonk the 6 ml bottles. I so wish they made these for the minis!

 

[Vapefiend]

I've never had a problem squonking the 6ml bottles. I actually just keep two in rotation and they've gotten really soft. Maybe I'll try the ones you speak of.

Just rewicked* my chalice III. Here's a pic.. always wondered if anyone had a better way or suggestions.

24g 8wrap I just dryburned its resistance is around .65 lol I'm lazy today. Cotton bacon as always.

 

[Danrogers]

I broke it up into three bottles, 2 have 200ml and 1 has 100ml. I spoke the owner of DYI Ejuice and he told me he would cap the bottles put childproof tops on and then vacuum pack them, no charge I might add, just a service he provides to his customers. Luckily I live just 5 minutes from the warehouse. I feel much more confident about traveling with the Ejuice in my luggage, yes I am bringing 200 more mls than I might need but I am sure I will be fine with Mexican customs. Mexico here I come!!!

What's the ramp-up time on that? Seems it'd be a bit with a single battery mod. i go more for 26g on a Reo for that reason, but there's nothing wrong with it and it's a nice looking build.

It fires instantly I have no problems, maybe a 1-2 second at most. I like a cool vape. 26g is alright but gets too hot for me when I chain vape.

Goodnight everyone!

DIY is an awesome company. I get all my juice hardware and flavourings from them. Free shipping and I get it in 24 hours.

When are you making the move to the Island, BTW?

 

[PapawBrett]

Good Morning Reonauts. My new (to me) Chalice III arrived yesterday, thanks JetKnight. I have a P67 that will call it home soon. For a Renaissance Vapor like myself, nothing better then the Chalice III.
I'll try to catch up later, time to suit up and show up.

Have a Safe and Blessed Day

A little tip I thought was worth sharing.
I've been converting all my REOs lately to the soft bottles from Rob's site.
The one annoying issue I've noticed with them is that it's hard to get a good enough grip on the stainless cap to get it tight; especially if you have a little juice on your fingers. I don't pull the tube to refill. I just unscrew the bottle, and leave the tube and cap in place.
What I found helpful was to use a little electric engraving tool, to put some score marks or lines on the cap. Mine is a Dremel; and they can be found at Lowes or HD for $15 - $18; probably even cheaper on Amazon. When I was working, tool room guys used to use them all the time to mark tools. You can make lines, or even draw little designs, if you wish. It only takes a couple minutes to mark up a cap; and it greatly improves your grip.

Good idea!

 

[TwistedThrottle]

Another trick I like with the soft bottles is to tip them upside down. Fill it up, start threading the cap with the tube pinched and flip it over, that way when your squeezing the bottle to thread it on the cap, the tube will transfer air instead of liquid and less is spilled (as long as the cap is started on the threads). Then I do the pressure thing and use flat tweezers to install it back in the mod (fat fingers). This works with the super duper soft sunbox bottles too.

I have a Chalice III on a Grand. They are a great atty for us tootle puffin flavor hounds. I have another Chalice that is unfortunately inoperable due to a missing post screw. I haven't found any replacement for it, so be very careful.
