It's been 6 years since I last had a REO, loved it with cartos, I wasn't much of a rebuilder back then. Left it behind when tanks showed up!

I recall when the REO had a cult like following.. They sold for top $$$ used. Are they no longer in the mod game? I was never a squonker so never had one (or any squonk for that matter) but I recall the REO being top squonk dawg back in the day...

Do you use all VG or mix with PG ?
I do my regular 70/30 by the liter, and instead of adding to the final mix the flavor (that is usually PG) I add straight PG to make it the final blend and let it steep like any other flavor for the PG to escape. It's ready to vape long before, but I do it anyway. Specially when I can't buy any flavorings (outrageously expensive here). I prefer unflavored to menthol crystals.

I just don't know... Search the forum! There are less expensive things nowadays.

Never had one, never had any interest in one just haven't seen any postings of the REO lately so I wondered if they went belly up like most of the other older high end manufacturers...

RIP some of the old skewl top dogs: Super T, GG, Provari, Caravella, GP ect.... REO too?

Thanks! Good to see an old school manufacturer still alive and kicking, even if on life support.....

Indestructible except for the positive contact that cracks after a few weeks. And customer service that points fingers and calls you a button masher instead of making the product better

Never had such problems from a REOS. Those two literally have over a half million miles in a Freightliner over the last five year without any trouble.
And I never had a trouble with customer service when Rob was running the place. I once bought an RBA with buggered threads from his website, and he just sent another. Didn't even ask for the defective one to be returned.
About the new owner .... wouldn't know. I just know he's not Rob.

It's been a strange few weeks. Minus a day I've been off the stinkies again for 4 weeks now and I decided to go for the POD and nicsalts thing. Never really liked anything above 6mg free base, ended up at 3mg, but went back to smoking during a bad period(yuck!). I now have an Aspire Nautilus AIO and I walk around with 2 extra pods, 1 with 20mg and 2 with 10mg nicsalt liquids. Changing flavors happens sorta intuitively. I don't think about it, but just suddenly do it. The craziest thing is that at the end of the day I'll have gone through a bit over half of the 1000mah battery. In the last 4 weeks I've vaped about 15mls, which is a crazy low amount.

2 days ago I decided to build up my Kayfun Prime and I stuck it on my JacV sB75. I just use it at home at the moment, so liquid usage has gone up a bit, but still, crazy low.

How do you choose what are you going to vape?

I don't choose the mod, the mod chose me. :cool:

Do you vape it all day long, until the battery dies, until the tank is empty?

I primarily use mech devices. I never wait until the battery dies as it's bad on the cell and may cause longevity, performance, charging, and other issues down the line. Regulated you should be fine. I always keep 4 fully charged batteries on me in case I have to leave or be somewhere, I'm set. I use dual battery mechs which I can sub ohm all day long without a change. But most of the time, I use single battery tube mechs with an RDA on top, which will require more changing. And my rotation varies, sometimes it's by what's built and what's not, sometimes it's by oldest to newest, sometimes it's just aesthetics. Just like food, if my eyes are pleased and think it looks good, it'll vape better. IK. I'm weird like that.

I'm weird like that.

I have three mods sitting next to me right now, each tank filled with a different juice. Sometimes my choice of which to vape is determined not by flavor but by a desire to hold a particular mod in my hand.

In sum, we're all weird.

I have around 6 or so mods that work well but I'll only use one for months on end (a 75 watt Pico right now)I always have three tanks on the go.A Kayfun lite with a 2.4 ohm kanthal coil,a Berserker with a 1.2 ohm stainless steel coil and a Kanger subtank mini with a 1.4 ohm stainless steel coil.

Two I use in temp mode (6.5 watt 410 deg.F.)and the Kayfun in watt mode (6.2 watts).One tank will always have unflavoured in it the other two will be with a hint of flavour (usually a coffee or tobacco) everything @60%pg,40%vg/6mg.nic.The morning starts with the unflavoured and after about my third mug of coffee I'll start hitting the hint of flavours.

My tanks all get a dryburn/cleaning once a week,I'll switch coils around every few months when they start looking rough and I'll switch to a different mod....whenever it suits me as they all work reasonably well for my vaping style. :)
