i can get about 8 hours if i'm working, if not then 4-5, I did happen to check my batteries one day and found them to be between 2.8 and 3.2v when i finally had to change them so i've started changing them a bit sooner.

On another note I just ordered my metallic blue VVG(Rob's awesome customer service at it again) which will match nicely to my serenity blue holster.

Awesome, thanks for the responses. I usually go through 3ml a day give or take with the kick set at 8.5-9 watts so I should be ok for now with two pairs 18350. Too bad there's no low battery indication, seeing as it has such a wide input voltage range. Gonna have to craft a mini tester to keep with it.

By the way, did anyone ever find a bigger bottle that works with the VVG?

I've been using the bottles for quite a while in my VVG and Woodvil. About the only downside is filling them, the very small mouth requires the tedious task of filling with an eyedropper or a much faster method of using a syringe, Other than that they work great, drilling out the cap just takes several seconds. Haven't had any leaks at all.

you can also fill them by sticking the nipple of the filling bottle in the opening of the bottle being filled and squeeze the empty bottle and then let the bottle fill as it expanse back and this works well with the bottle on top being upside down and the empty bottle on bottom hope this makes sense

I just received my metallic blue VVG and it is a beauty, the larger button is nice and I like that the voltage wheel is a bit stiffer than on my black wrinkle.

That's 3 reo's i own now, and when i started i though i'd never own a bottom feeder.

Rob does an awesome job as always>

Need pics please in pic thread!:D

I've officially saved up enough for my VV Reo! Now to decide whether to wait for the Woodville. Who am I kidding? Now to see whether I can flex some very underdeveloped patience muscles...

Robert has not let us know yet which wood REO he will be building. There was only one run done of the VV Woodvil, & Woodvil 18490. Last ones done were some Woodvils and the VV Woodvils. Whatever he does I am sure there will be lots of people ready to grab some wood!

Forgive me turning a mod into some sort of town ("Woodville"). And this after I've checked on their availability, oh, a million or so times:oops:!

No apology needed! You are not the first and will not be the last to alter a REO name! We know what you are talking about and that is all that really matters!!!

I just drilled out the Vapage 9ml bottle top. http://www.vapage.com/product_p/vpa-065.htm#
I got two bottles in my order but one does not work well- the cap screws on ....-eyed, so only one is operational. My drill bit was a bit too small to feed the feeder tube through so I just took the end of my needle nose pliers and reamed her out a bit more and it worked- then the lid would not seal. The lip of the bottle has a place that meets up with the lip inside of the cap and drilling and reaming it pushed out out so it does not mate right. I took an exacto knife and did surgery to the lip of the bottle and all is well- seems there is a tight seal. We'll see if it leaks or not. If not, it's a keeper- if it does, the Reo bottle is going back on!
