Rob, I think the problem is you don't sleep. The Grand is simply that.....Grand. Happy Holidays to you and yours my friend.
For anyone that may need a charger, someone on the other REO site found a decent charger on ebay. The seller has a "make an offer" listing. Right now he's asking $10.79, but I offered $8.99 and they accepted.
The listing is at:
Ultrafire Charger WF-139 14500 17670 18650 Battery new - eBay (item 180588301493 end time Dec-15-10 23:20:54 PST)

Heads up for Mini and grand owners, Rob put replacement parts on his website in case you are out and something goes, great insurance and cheap. Tubing, switches, and springs
That is the best charger out there for the money. I've had one for several months & it works great.
Rob, When you put the Mini's up on your site how are you planning to list them, for instance several colors each time or all one color for each time you put up a new listing?
Will you be announcing, in advance, what colors will be listed?
That might keep down the traffic some if people know what is going to be available. For instance, I would love to have a red but if I know there will be some more reds coming in future listings I won't be shoving my way onto the site the first few times. That way some of us with multiple Reos already can step back and let some new people get their first Reos. Sorry if I'm not explaining this very well but I think you will understand what I'm trying to say.
Thanks, Alice

We've had one of these for years. It is solid, charges to capacity, and does have dual channel charging so if one battery gets finished it will keep charging the one that needs more.
I haven't mixed different types on it but I'm not sure it is rated for that; it may be but don't know. We haven't had the instructions for years.

Good news and bad. My fibromyalgia was bothering my hands badly today. So I got a chance to see how the smooth and polished mini felt compared to the much more squared off grand. Bad news is that its still uncomfortable. Good news is that its way better than the grand. Between the extra weight and the harder edges the grand truly hurts to use. In comparison the mini is uncomfortable. I looked at the mini. If you look at it from the front it is not box-y but more like the letter U since the edges on the bottom are rounded. But the bottom corners still bother me. I looked more. If you look at it from the side it does not look like a U since the bottom edges are not rounded. Tomorrow if my hands feel better I'm going to dremel the front and back bottom edges to make them rounded like the sides are now then wait til my hands bother me again and see how it feels with more rounding.
Regardless, I do appreciate the chance to get a polished mini to see if it was better for me on bad days and it is. Enough typing for today, just wanted to provide quick feedback.

Bsoplinger, thanks for the report. Hopefully you'll find a solution for yourself. Hang in there!!!
I wonder if a layer of rubber coating would help your hands when there flaring up.I am sure it could be done.
I was thinking the same thing.I would give it a shot.Might not be pretty but comfort comes first to me
Some kind of skin like you can get for readers, phones, etc. They are flexible and rubbery. Perhaps find one that has similar dementions of Reo and mod it to make a small bottom cup for the reo to fit in.
The Mini corner makes my palm sore. I don't think the woodie will do that or the GtandE as they will extend below my palm.
This is the kind of stuff I'm referring to. We have these for our kndle 3s, mostly to protect the Kindles but they sure feel good and make the kindle less slppery to hold. There are kazllions of silicone skins for all types of devices.

Love this stuff; been using it for years. I'll bet a mold, made out of heavy aluminim foil, would be good for making a bottom cup.

Alice, that's brilliant! I just went upstairs and tried the Wii skin. Same opaque white (semi-clear) as the kindle skin. It even has a hole in the top that allows clearance for the atomizer and button (have to wiggle it a bit to get the fit), and then there's a band that comes right down to the bottom of the grand, leaving the bottle hole clear!!!! Wow, almost (sort of kind of) a perfect fit. Then you could cut off the bottom excess.

If you look at the picture, where the bottom of the skins is in the picture, would be the top on the Grand, and the atomizer and button fits in that open slot.
