Well I have gotten a Reo Grand about a month ago and have not smoked for a month before that!

I have had my RM2 either stolen or lost, I think it was stolen yesterday at my local vape store witch also does not carry any sort of rebuildable vape products yet and I am way to poor to be ordering anything else

I hear the Odin is the BEST addy you can get but that thing is WAY to expensive and they are NEVER in stock!

But for now it looks like the Reo will have to be sold and back to the dirty cigs!

Moving out of Reoville :(

I'm sorry that your rebuildable got stolen. Here is my suggestion to you:

I'd say to get a carto or an atomizer or a tank system or something to hold you over until you can get another rebuildable. Going back to cigarettes should not be an option. You'll hate yourself when you wake up the next day with a heavy chest.

Nooooooo! I only have one rm2 or else I'd send you one! I use LR attys (could either use a 510 or a 306 - just make sure it's open bottom) and I still just love the vape and flavor. Yeah, it's a little old school. But it works. And they are only like 5.99. I understand being a broke vaper. Please stay in reoville with us!

I'm not trying to come off as rude here but it seems you are looking for an excuse to smoke again. If that's what you want to do, I'm not going to tell you not too but I will say you will regret it down the road.

As far as not having money to invest in a new atty, are you getting free cigs? I don't know about your neck of the woods but here 2 weeks of pack a day would pay for an Odin.

A REO can be used with cartos and as already mentioned there are others that want to see you succeed and have been known to PIF items when needed. If you want to quit the cigs, were here to help, if not I hope you find what you are looking for.

Its a LP Grand and I just cannot go back to a tank and carto set up after using the Reo, using those is just like using corner store ecig after getting in bed with the Reo.

I hustle and struggle to come up with the money for an Odin and EVERY TIME like 5-6 times now I go to order and nope sold out! Was going to spend every cent I had and just order one this morning after checking if they were there last night...

I also agree that going back to smoking is not the option but I am just to ...... off at vaping period, anything I need or want has to be shipped and is madly expensive, the availability and low costs of cigarettes is what I like and what makes me want to go back!!!

I have to agree with B2L on this one... You obviously have a local vape shop and I'm sure they sell 510 atty's to get you by till you can get a new BF atty. I have an Atomic I modded but don't use anymore and would be more than happy to PIF it if the shipping is not too costly. PM me your info and I'll head down to the PO today and get a rate... There is "NO" need to be going backwards here!!!

A box of 510 cartomizers or atomizers should get you through short term. Any vape shop should have those.

I know money can be tight, I've been there myself but an Odin costs the same as about 10-11 days worth of smokes for most pack a day smokers and a new Rm2 costs the same as about 6-7 packs. That's like 3 days worth of cigs for me when I was smoking. Vaping almost pays for itself compared to smoking.

Low cost? Are you kidding? Unless you are smoking $10 a carton reservation smokes, smokes in Ontario are hardly cheap. Take a look at my sig banner.

Sorry I don't have another extra atomizer to send you. I understand your fustration, but selling your Reo for a week or two worth of smokes is hardly the answer, There are other vape shops around southern Ontario, even if you get a cheap igo dripper for now and use it as a straight dripper for the time being. The peeps here might even be able to talk you through slotting an insulator to make it bottom fed.

Come on dude, don't give up so easy!

First Class International Package is about $8 and 7 days. Any bubble type envelope works. Don't let the post office bamboozle you into any sort of flat rate box.

Don't mean to be crass, but Music I think you are wasting your time with CL. He wants to smoke cigs. You remember what that feels like. If he has the funds for an Odin, he could easily replace his RM2 for much less. Just saying!!

I see where your coming from here, but I don't view it as a waste of time. We all need to at least try to do something. I was once curious, but fortunately never had the desire to go back, even when I was using a cigalike... Seems like it was sooooooo long ago.

Clwebb, sorry to read of your situation.

Moving forward, you have been given viable options. I trust that you take the said advice and remain smoke free.

Regardless of whether an Odin is readily available to you or not, it appears that the claws of the Nails are still deeply rooted in you, as you would quickly retreat and return to the dark ways. For that, I sympathize with your plight.

Please, attempt to remain smoke free.

That's the feeling I get and I think we've all been there at one time or another. Vaping isn't a magic bullet that makes someone quit but a powerful tool for someone that wants to. If you really want to quit a bump in the road, or a roadblock for that matter, won't stop you. If you don't want to, any excuse to smoke again will suffice.

The only person that can help CL is CL. After 60 years of smoking cigs, I like you, put them down and have never even thought of going back. As a matter of fact, I still have 7 packs in my garage that are 10 months old.

CL, please do what you have to do to stay off the analogs!! We are all begging you.
