Bought a Reo Mini, couldn't be happier!
Nice! I've had my mini for 10 months today. It has never let me down. I have a couple of tube
mods that are just as durable, but I can honestly say my REO mini is the most reliable PV I own. It has never once failed to fire when I pushed the button. It has taken some abuse (I work with cattle and machinery a lot and climb big comm towers several times a month... but also do lots of other physical stuff that has destroyed many less-well-built PVs). Mine even still looks really good after being in my glove boxes, tool boxes, tool belts, pockets etc etc etc when I'm working.
I also really appreciate how easy it is to clean the REO mini. Take out the bottle and the battery and plop it in a big bowl of warm water and a couple of drops of dish soap. A soft wash cloth will get to all the nooks and crannies. Then just shake the water off, rinse it off with tap water, and give a full-lung blow or two up in to the area where the firing pin is and you're good to go.... a little noalox comes in handy after cleaning by putting a little dab on the firing pin itself where it contacts the top of the battery.
Anyway! Congratulations! You will enjoy that piece of equipment for many years to come.
