Working on putting together my order , I will list some of the available parts that I found , what I don't know is how many or much extra stuff I should put on this order. I have no experience with this product so a bit of guidance here would really be appreciated.

I will be using it all day, it will be carried in a pants or jacket pocket , I will probably DROP it several times, I cannot run out of battery or juice period OR I have to go home . I want to carry the least possible amount of products, and I will not rebuild when out and about .....only at home.

............So here is the Parts list ........So what should I order and how many ?

Reo Grand
Reomizer 2.0
6ml bottles
Reo Grand Repair kit
Spring for Reo Grand
batteries
volt/ohm meter ?

I do not know what extra parts to get for rebuilding the Reomizer 2.0 ...lots of choices.

Basically, I want to get what I need for at least 2 yrs , I already have 2 yrs worth of NIC / VG

I don't care if it costs 500.00 - 600.00 , but if I spend that much, I better not have to spend a dime on any more stuff Period for at least 2 yrs.


Thank You,

Steve -:2cool:

2 grands and 2 Rm2s. Couple of springs, extra atty o-rings, and a few sets of atty screws. Don't really need a rebuild kit IMHO. Some extra bottles. 4 batteries and a good charger - I like the Pila. A roll of Kanthal - 27 or 28 g for optimal .8-1.0 ohm coils from eBay and a box of sterile rolled cotton from CVS or RiteAid.

I run 2 Grands at all times at work or when I'm in my truck. Allows me to switch flavors and not have to switch batteries all day. If I am out on the town or on foot, I just take one, of course.

I will end up getting a third Reo eventually, but I think 2 is a good working combo for hard day to day use like you describe.

edit - your coils will run as long as you want between recoils. They don't really go bad. Just take a chunk of cotton with you and re wick every couple of days. Takes 2 minutes.

No problem. You sound like you have a job like mine where you are out for extended periods of time.

I have a bag that I carry in my truck at work that has my laptop, other work gear in it. I have a little side pocket that I carry a couple of bottles of whatever 2 flavors I am running, a tiny plastic bag with a chunk of sterile cotton, a mini Phillips driver for tightening atty screws, and some small scissors for trimming wicks. The entire kit could easily fit in the smallest pocket you can find and handles all day to day maintenance.

The durability, reliability, and vape quality of the Reo will change your world. The RM2 is cake to build and that box of cotton you buy will last you your entire life. You will love it. Make sure to watch Super_X_Drifter's coil video to see how to make a coil. It's basically foolproof and the results are bonkers.

Well I am in the Casino Playing for 8-14 hrs at a time and I sometimes chain vape and other times forget that I vape......lol

So I just do not want to HAVE to go home .......Do to an equipment failure.

Steve -

hold'em?

if you can hang 8-14 hours regularly in a casino, then doubling the quantities of everything previously said is a positive expectation bet...

Since you say you will not want to spend any more money for 2 years, include a file for the firing pin. You will need to use that probably once a month or so. (Rob says 2 weeks.) Course, that may be unnecessary once the mod kit that Rob is working on is completed.

from REOSmods

Reo Grand
6ml bottles
Reo Grand Repair kit
Spring for Reo Grand TWO

Atomizer, EM-LR 510 1.5 ohm, TWO or more these are quick backup for entire RM2, and good for testing juices

Reomizer 2.0
Spare Post Screws for RM2, pair
o ring bottom fed rba 1mm X 10mm, TWO
o ring bottom fed rba 1.5mm X 10mm, TWO
2 mm silica wick 3 ft (in case you don't like cotton)
Kanthal A1 resistance wire 28 gauge 3 ft
Kanthal A1 resistance wire 30 gauge 3 ft
once you figure out which gauge works best for you, you can order a 100 foot spool for $8 with free shipping from Temco, either on their web page or eBay store



from RTDvapor.com

Batteries, AW IMR 18650 1600 mAH THREE
NiteCore Intellicharger i2, one plus backup
Clear 18650-18350-CR123 Case, two plus two backups - spare battery on one side, 6 ml juice bottle on the other, bit of cotton above it.
(hinges eventually wear out)
Luer Lock Needles, one 16G plus spare for wrapping coils
Drip Tip, Black Delrin easier on teeth or
Drip Tip, Chrome more formal/snazzier
Keychain Screwdriver
510 to 510 Sealed Post Shorty for tasting juices with a disposable atty without getting them into your tube or bottle


Others have pointed to a source for an ohms checker. I have an older version of the Cen-Tech multimeter at RTD, but at least one other who has the current auto-zero model reports it doesn't do ohms checking anywhere near accurately. If you've always wanted a REO-class multimeter for other uses as well, you'll pay for it, and I recommend this one (overkill for vaping). I don't have experience with any other in the lower price ranges.

edit to add: the Nitecore chargers cost a bit more from RTD but are listed as coming with a 12VDC power cord which lets you charge from your vehicle, boat, or RV. Those from cheaper sources don't include this.

All good advice above, but I'd add, if you want to go THAT long without spending anything, maybe consider getting 6 AW IMR 18650 batteries. You may also want to investigate ordering your ejuice in litres, I get mine from Myfreedomsmokes here. I use the unflavored, but you can add your own flavorings to taste.

Good idea.

This is exactly what I do and MFS is also my source. Good stuff from a consistently reliable vendor. The amber glass bottle is sealed under the cap, the cap screwed on tight and shrink wrapped in place, it's professionally labeled, wrapped in bubble wrap and placed inside one heavy duty zip lock bag inside another heavy-duty zip lock bag, packed well, and shipped FedEx. Since I vape 24 mg 50/50, I've gotten some of the liter bottles AP linked to and just add flavoring. But I've also bought some 100 mg (all VG) wholesale quantity and paid $5/liter extra to get that in glass bottles. Worth it to me.

I have 2000 ml of VG / Nic which I get from Wizard Labs, plus enough Menthol flavoring for a 20 % Mix if I wanted to go that high, right now it is 10 % flavoring..

I am just tired of having to buy stuff that's all , I want to go a "significant: amount of time where I do NOT have to even think about placing an order.

I know extra attys have been mentioned but for me I carry with me a spare batt 10 extra mil of juice and an extra RBA all st up read just in case. It all fits in a 2x2x1/2 inch zipper case I think I got it from rtd I think a18650 batt will fit I use my 18490 for work and 2 batts easily last 10 + hours.
