That's a great picture, you got the telephone pole in perfect focus!
I kid because I love
I made my own hex ohm box with the fat daddy 510. not a bad little device
I also find it impossible to believe those people didn't actually know they were clones and were just playing the "stupid" card. everyone knows what legits go for
anyone who buys a clone as a legit clearly has no idea about vaping in general. that's not to say they weren't naïve and placed trust in the wrong person, but that person clearly didn't do his/her homework before making a substantial purchase

I know the guys who set up the Summit don't sell clones in their stores, so I am sure it was not hard for the mod makers to get their attention. I don't think the Reo is worth the money myself. I would take a Hexohm over just about any box mod there is. It never surprises me when I see how much of the Hexohm design other box mod makers implement in their designs.
I don't care one way or the other about the REO. I have not chosen to add one to my collection strictly because there is nothing I think is any more special about it than hundreds of other box mods. When I am asked for a recommendation, I tell people to get the second version of the Hexohm.
I also recommend the Conspiracy Mods nonregulated mod. And if you just got to have the best, buy a Slug if you can find it. I don't claim to be an expert but I will say that the one the thing that is consistent amongst the people that know me is that they often say, "If he don't own it, its not worth owning." I had a Reo at one time, but I did not think enough of it to keep it.

hex ohm design....
it's a Hammond enclosure with an Okr chip
if you want to get technical, hex ohm ripped off the duke, which has been using Hammond enclosures with Okr t10 chips before it was "cool"

Well why not just suggest that someone just find something that works for them and is in their budget? I always find that people who claim they are not an expert, usually try to act like one in the prior or next sentence. See above.
what's so special about conspiracy mods? I mean, if you like their design that's cool I guess
but it's just a Hammond enclosure with a mosfet. It costs about $30 to make an unregulated box mod

I agree with you 100% in most of what you said. Pricing is always a dead give away until someone dishonestly or unknowingly sells a clone for the price of an authentic. Aslo, in researching most people don't have access to the right people who know where the aunthentics are at. Most people get their information from Youtube and forums like this one. The problems with said sources is that often the information they are receiving is not accurate. I have watched many Youtube videos of people lying about the quality of some clones and claiming to be reviewing an authentic when in fact what they were showing was a clone.
When people ask me about buying authentics, I tell everyone the same thing, First, try to talk to the mod maker and make sure the people selling the mod got it from the maker. Second, ask the seller for a copy of the invoice from where they got the mod. Third, throw one and two out the door and deal direct with AG in SO CAL. If you don't know who they are, you probably should stick with the clones!
of course it's possible to be sold a clone as authentic, but any discerning individual would know the differences or know where to get the proper information for knowing for certain.
everyone I've ever knew that thought their kayfun was "authentic" had very little knowledge in regards to the vaping market
I didn't say there was anything special about it. I recommend it strictly for the two things you mentioned. It has Hammond enclosure with a mofset. I may throw in that the only reason I own one is that it was a gift from my son.
nothing wrong with liking them in particular
just wondered why you would recommend theirs
the worst, to me, is charging $130 for a Hammond enclosure and not sanding/grinding the thing so it's level and sits on a table
that and doing dual 18650, unregulated boxes and putting them in a 1590B. that should be illegal

I don't have a REO either, but the thing that's special about them is that they have a plastic tube liquid tank, and when you squeeze it (squonk), it delivers juice to the atty through a bottom feed tube. That means you basically combine the best of both worlds between RDAs and RTAs. You get full RDA performance without the need to drip, and have a good, sealed, juice reservoir. The electronics aren't interesting, and I agree there's nothing special about them compared with other box mods, but the whole squonking thing is a game changer, IMO.
About counterfeits vs. authentics - you'd think I was crazy if you knew how much research I did before buying a $9.00 MNKE 26650 battery to make sure I knew the difference between the real thing and a counterfeit. Just imagine how careful I'd be if $200+ was on the line. YMMV, of course.
Wow I forgot about this part of ecf, whew, flame on people, then realize personal choice is just that, personal, there is no bad or wrong choice with a quality product, we are supposed to be here for one common goal, not to brag, boast, or make others feel inferior... happy vaping, and in the immortal words of rodny king, "can't we all just get along" rant over thanks for your support.....
It shows you understand very little in vaping equipment. I'd ask how old are you, but I am afraid it is against ECF rules.
P.S. I read this thread because I am interested in anthropology.
52, and on a personal note, I did not ask for your input on this thread and wish you would take your veiled insults to a thread where there appreciated. This thread is about the Vape Summit in Houston. If you weren't there are want to talk about other stuff, go elsewhere.
