VV REO Grand III

[FeistyAlice]

My sister-in-law, God bless her, lived in the Cleveland area and had a Browns shrine in her living room. She also had a sign that said "My two favorite teams are the Cleveland Browns and anyone that beats the Pittsburgh Steelers." I don't know if that rivalry still exists, but back in the 60's I remember each city would send bus loads of fans to the other city when the two teams played each other. I heard it was around 20 buses. It was (or still is) a great rivalry. The trip was less than 3 hours and enough for everyone to get soused.

When the Bengals were first formed I watched one of the very first games, Bengals/Browns played, from a building on the UofC (Cincinnati) campus, played at University Field. I don't remember who won but sure had loads of fun and lots of beer. (It was late 60's)

Once again I find myself trying to climb out of the bottomless pit of depression. I staked out the mailboxes for over three hours this afternoon waiting on the mail lady. As my target came into range I shed my Gillie suit, which had kept me invisible to the human eye since I closely resembled a clump of dried native grasses, and swooped down on her like a buzzard on a gut wagon.

After performing CPR to revive her from the near fatal shock I held my hand out expecting a priority box containing my brand new, GLOW IN THE DARK, SALMON COLORED VV GRAND REO. I was the recipient of a stare akin to someone who had just seen Sasquatch. No package... just bills.

It has been a week now that I have been expecting my custom made, one of a kind VV Grand but as of yet, no joy. I'm starting to think that the mail lady has appropriated it for her own use... there is no other plausible explanation.

Sent from my pea sized iPad while my MacBook is being held hostage for 48 hours to replace a one screw secured TrackPad.

You got your tracking number right? If you do it will show out for delivery when it is on it's way.

I'm guessing I'll have to wait until Rob invents it before I get a tracking number... but it doesn't hurt to be optimistic.

Mr Rob is the MAN!!

He's going to hold a blue metallic VV grand for me till Wed.! ( I just came from the site and he did, in fact, remove it!)

Then i pushed my luck and asked him to hold the purple vv grand till Wed.!!!!

Hey lovie. Yes, Teak arrived safely. What batteries are you using? I haven't carried my VVG around a whole lot but imagine the 18xxx are going to be a little tighter than the 16xxx that the Buzz Pro uses. I'm using 18xxx in VVG. Seems like someone said something about using a business card insert to keep batteries in line but can't remember who and for what. I'm sure someone will answer with better info.

Love you, Alice

Oh my gosh! I just realized how much I flipping miss you!!!! I miss our PMs.
I am using the 18350s. Cheers to fine cheese Alice! love love love you

 

[kabonk]

I must say this mod is awesome I mean I knew it would be but its really nice i don't know what it is the shape of it, the yellowness of it I guess I didn't realize how much I missed my Grands and maybe I'll be needing another something sparkly

I received my black/red metallic VV Grand today and it was love at first vape!!! Currently I'm running it full tilt at 5.6V with a 2.8ohm Boge on top and it's fantastic. Many thanks to Rob for building such an amazing device. I'll try to get some pics up tomorrow. I need to put this thing down long enough to take a couple pictures

 

[juicejunky]

Awwwww! You still have my first REO!!! I'm so happy to see it is in good hands

I love my REO. It's so cute. The pink is perfect. I still need to get my lazy .... to take pictures. The shape of a REO, the vape from a REO, priceless.

In reference to my earlier question, I got a yellow, red, and green Sharpie paint pen from Michaels. I copied the Buzz Pro's set up exactly. The wheel turned out awesome. I will take pictures as soon as someone does it for me. Just kidding. Bad joke......sleep time for me

Question. Is anyone else having an issue with the batteries not staying stacked straight? My batteries start to topple over to the left.

Can't wait for the photo since I have never seen a Buzz Pro.

For your battery question, mine doesn't fire sometimes because the batteries are leaning. I cut a 1/4 inch strip the length of the compartment off an old black spongy type mouse pad to put between the bottle and the batteries. Seems to be working and I have the rest of the mouse pad to replace it as it gets old. Some one else was using a popsicle stick. A business card is probably not thick enough.

Awww shucks... I was gonna keep it and have two of them. Even posted yesterday about my growing little REO family LoL. I love the REO's but I love variety as well and it's weird but I actually did feel kind of guilty having 2 of them when there are so few out there. I hope you love it man, I am sure you will though. The Pink door with black will look great next to your woodie and grand hehe

A business card folded in half and trimmed will work, it is how I have mine set up. I like the popsicle idea the best!

...I actually did feel kind of guilty having 2 of them...

Guilty for having two? I'm contemplating my third! Having two of these is the best decision I've made since I started vaping. I'm not giving you a hard time, please don't take offense. I am more displaying my gratitude and sheer delight with this experience.

Less than a week in and I feel comfortable selling ALL of my other gear. VV Grand and BF-RBAs are, for me anyways, simply the best, most hassle free, most consistently satisfying vape I have every had. I like having two because even though I only use one flavor, I do chain vape and I like splitting my time between the two. It means longer run times, less frequent bottle refills, and I feel my wicks last longer if they get less abuse, plus I haven't had to swap batteries in over two days!

I know we all like to try new 'toys' and I think all the experimentation has kept me preoccupied enough to completely forget about analogs, but this just works for me. I can't promise I'll never buy a different mod again, but I think its gonna be a while before my curiosity gets the better of me.

Robert is making 1000 of them. So two is not too much! Even after the first batch of 1000 is up he will make more. Not a reason to not have more than one!

Well said hildicat, I feel the same way. The BF-RBA's and the VVG is a game changer for me.

I have been vaping 2+ years and this set up by fare is the best I have come across.

[Ratman]

Well i did say it was weird LoL. Maybe it's because I am still fairly new to vaping, coming up on 3 months now. I still really enjoy the variety of delivery methods and devices even though I get the best vape from vv grand. Or maybe it was because I hadn't even broken in my Grand before I suddenly had 2 vv grands in my lap. Just seemed like too much, too fast. /shrug No offense taken at all

Maybe I am just cRaZy!!! hehe

Wayne, you're killin' me! Haha! I've finally happened upon an atty that is giving me decent flavor and vaper, but it has been a struggle lately. Every time you post you are extolling the virtues of RBAs and VVGs being so awesome. Well, my friend, the VVG is here, the ERA is coming. You've got me so excited about putting the two together I can't stand it! Like a Reese's cup of vaper goodness!
