Looks like I should,laundry in between posts,get ready to go grocery shopping-if everyone would stop eating for a week I'd get my reo!!!Thanks for all the input from you guys.I think a reo is on the horizon for me,but for right now I'm waiting to get my peanut butter cookie from the vapor room and reclean some cartos in hope of saving for the reo. Now will it be the reo grand or the mini-goodness.

jweavers, I vaped a month longer than you, but much less sophisticated, just getting a Riva 510. Light up an analog out of frustration? Been there! The longer I vape, the less I like the analogs, but they're still my go-to stress reliever for those hair pulling moments.

I have hardware to the left of me, bottles to the right (Stuck in the Middle With You?). Took a strip of wood and drilled a bunch of holes for my 510 batts, attys and carts. Next to them is the trusty paper towel, paper clip and tweezers. I'm worse than you, still on carts, fill out 10 at a time, have to do it at least twice a day. Dry burn attys once a day. I don't know what I would do when I visit with family.

Analogs were much simpler, but I ain't going back. See you at the crossroads! :)

As a preface, I didn't read the responses posted before me. If this has been said before, it bears repeating.

Get a Reo Grand. The 18650 battery lasts me a day and a half, a bottle of juice lasts two days. The thing I love about it is that I don't have to screw with it. I've got an extra debridged 306 inside it, an extra battery in my pocket and I don't have to go fuss with my mod for a couple days.

It gave me my freedom back.

I didn't read though all the posts but I'll chime in and say that I LOVE my Reo Grand. I was in a similar boat to you. Always fiddling with stuff and had a mess on my desk all the time. At first I loved the tinkering but after a while I longed for something that just worked without all the fuss. I've been using my grand exclusively for almost 6 weeks now and it has been such a joy! The 6ml bottle lasts me 2 days easily. It can use atties and cartos. The big 18650 battery gives me solid power for the entire day (i vape 2-3ml on a 306 LR atty per day). So my routine is now change the battery only once in the morning and change the bottle every other day. Thats pretty much it except for cleaning the atty (if I even bother).

If you want to try a bottom feeder on the cheap check out oldgoat's mods. I picked up a 3.7v 3ml one that uses 14500 batts for around 30 bucks. It was a great way to try the bottom feeder without dropping a lot of cash. It worked very well for a little plastic mod and now its tucked away as my backup. Good luck!

Edit: Oldgoat 3.7v bottom feeders are still 30 bucks. Just in case you were interested: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...at-mods-original-3-7-bottomfeeder-sale-5.html

I've got an old goat bottom feeder and I do like it but it seems to take more of a learning curve than I realized. With a LR atty, I seemed to flood it and juice leaked out the bottom and the on/off switch. But with the LR atty, I always felt that I had to squeeze more cause it always tasted burnt or hot. But with a higher resistance atty, I didn't feel that I was getting the "power" that I wanted. And I agree, sometimes it does seem like I'm taking a baby out! My fav setup is a ego/riva batt with a boge 2.0 carto. All the fiddling is def worth it cause I don't stink any more! I can't imagine going back to cigarettes!

It sounds like you need a reo grand! Just be patient with the learning curve!

While I wait on a reo ,probably Christmas for me,that's okay,will a map tank work on a kr-808?I mean,sure it might look silly,but will it work?And what is a GP-SSR?
I am still thinking on the old goat bottom feeder also,just to see if I like bottom feeders.That is the other thing though,will his work with a cartomizer as well as an atty set-up?I only ask this as I've never dripped on an atty per say,a naked atty.I do of course drip all day into my cartomizers and fluxomizers!
Sounds like alot of us newbies who want to keep vaping with less mess are out there.All of us with similar messy set-ups!In the first few days I really made a big effort to be so organized.Moved all my make-up out of its drawer to move in all my juices and equipment so it could be nicely stored.That's all to hell in a hand basket now.
I even saw a tutorial on the site that had a way to make your own little mod on the cheap.If I had time,maybe.I really thought,foolishly,when my kids got older,well...that I would have more time.
