OMG! They blow everything I thought I knew about vaping away! I mean all this time I've been vaping I never truly tasted flavor like I have now! Flavors that I was going to give away, I now am going to keep! The coil; as some of you know, I sent out an emergency help cry. The 510 attys were not working right for me, so last night I bit the bullet and built my first coil. It's no Super_X spec coil, but it worked and came in at 2.0. It was then that I realized after talking to JC Okie, these coils teamed up with the REO are the best combination possible! I won't have to worry about running out of coil, when I can just build it myself! Further more, I went ahead and ordered two more and in the future, when I order more REOs I'll order a RBA to go with it!
I truly love these things, I've been just dripping with the other two with the attys on them. I don't want to mess up the bottles yet, as I plan which units will contain groups of flavor. I mean like one for menthol, one for baked and coffee flavors and one for citrus. Since I lot even more variety, I'm just going to have to get more REOs.
Also, my meter came in today, and I'm going to order some more coil building material (I never thought I would say that). I really do love these things and I am truly thankful to each and everyone of you. I've got a lot to learn. Hopefully my other RBAs get here by the weekend, I want to start micro coiling soon! After tasting the RBA, I'm not sure I should have ordered so many CARTOs, but then again, that's the beauty of the REO; I can do what I want! I mean, like I said, I'm dripping in the 510 attys and loving it! Thanks a million to you all! 20130709_222754.jpg20130708_234522.jpg

YAY!!!! And....beautiful coil right there! I'm so glad to hear you're cooking with gas....and those other REOs are just beautiful. My next REO is going to be either all Copper vein or partly copper vein. I love that color.

It's exciting to hear you so excited. Congratulations on all your new toys....and to the ones yet to come!!!

Nice work bro :). The coil and wick look awesome. I wish i picked it up that quick. Ok, now that you have all 3, which one is standing out as your favorite in hand?

Super_X, I gotta be honest with you; the mini does fit good, but the grand is so close in size (as you stated) that for the power it may well do. Having said that, I work in a hospital and really can't vape there anyway. So long lasting is not a very important requirement, but I will want more Grands than minis! Kind of liking the VV thing, but remembering what you said "just build the coil for the device", is beginning to make sense, but there all my kids so I'll try to love them the same.

Super_X, wife and kids loose my tools, so had to use a toothpick (couldn't find the 1/16 drill) but slid the toothpick in the hole and it is about 1/16 inch, but I'm sure you already knew that!

Perfect mcguyver type solution bro. I am so lucky that my wife and kids stay out of my vape supply file cabinet. Everything's right where I think I left it.

Your picking this up very quickly. I vaped cartos on my REOs and loved it for at least 6 months before I grew sac enough to try an RBA.

There are so many people here willing to help us get the most out of our vape, We're spoiled.

Congratulations, Navy4life :) I'm so happy you got them and that you get it. To be honest with you, the VV fits my lazy needs...and its kinda nice to dial a juice to a different taste if needed. Stronger vape in the morning, cooler in the evening. But I still hoard my minis with great passion. :laugh::facepalm: I'm sure like many of us, you'll find uses for all 3.

Must say, your new avatar gave me a giggle. Please don't say someone found the old "disruptive".

I like my Grand better than my Mini. I am getting another Grand soon.My next one should be a Silver vein since i already have the Copper Vein.

Good setup -- I also keep about 3 REOs locked and loaded with different flavors (fruit, coffee/sweets, cinnamon red hots) and just wanted to comment that you don't need to obsess about which device to use for which flavors; you can easily make changes in the future as your tastes or preferences change.

Make it easy on yourself by buying a bunch of spare bottles, and keep some vodka/Everclear handy -- I store mine in an empty 30ml juice bottle. Drip the alcohol down through the tubing (and in your atty(s)) until it runs clear, air/blow/burn dry, and you'll be good to go with a new flavor. Even setups using the very potent cinnamon and menthol flavors can be switched to new flavors without residual taste lingering if your REO cleaning technique is thorough.

As much as we all love our mods, it is hard to justify buying 20 of them just because there 20 flavors you might cycle through.
