Yep, got the Black on Black Grand today.

[The_Hypnotist]

Hey everybody, i finally got a second to pop in here. I had to stop reading and replying to post in the car, too many mistakes, don't want to make enemies due to my own stupidity. Anywaaaaay, I am super excited, got the black Grand today but my batteries haven't arrived yet . The red and black mini has found a new home and to be honest, I miss it soooo much. The mini was so perfect in every way but since it was glued to my lips all day, I had to change the battery every 3 hours which drove me nuts. So I have the grand, the transaction with the mini went smoothly, and I now have money in my PayPal for a....Drum roll........MINI WOODVIL 18490. Is anyone else excited as I am about the metal mini 18490? I miss my mini so much but hated those 14500 batteries for a chain vapor. Another question: Has anyone else ever got rid of their mini and immediately regretted it within seconds? I feel like I just sold my child, LoL. Hope everyone is well.
Sending Peace, Love & Light to everyone and wishing you all continued Success, Luck, and Prosperity.

Once you get that Grand fired up, losing your Mini won't sting so much. Good score on the black/black - it's what I got as well, and it goes with everything. Vapes like a monster at 5v, my 18650's sit forlorn and unused on my charging shelf.

Morning Hypnotist I wouldn't let getting rid of the mini bother you .We have mini folk and grand folk I have a feeling once you get your batteries for your grand you wont be missing your mini . Chain vapers and 14500 mods not such a great mix

Up late

Ya...you won't miss your mini as soon as you got your Grand running. well....maybe you will. But if so...there are plenty of minis to go around. I can't wait to hear what you think!

Hi Rob

Hello Lisa

 

[mlinky]

One of the great things that Robert does is take care of all of his customers! I'm a Mini gal, and even though he prefers using the bigger REOs, he is always thinking of new products and improvements for us "little people"

 

[washvap]

Glad that you finally got the mod that you wanted and congrats!! Great choice going with a Black on Black Grand.

 

[pmoraldo]

Have to agree with davelog I love my grand at 5v especially if you chain vape or hyper vape I like to call it

Hi, Congrats on your GRAND! I have both the Grand and the Mini -- and I know I would miss my mini if I didn't have it -- those 14500s can be a nuisance to switch all day long, but for a short trip here and there, they fit the occasion quite nicely! And if you're in a pinch somewhere, it's a great stealth vape. The wonder of it is that although it is a mini, the vape is not! I sold a backup GRAND several months ago and regretted it almost immediately - I righted that wrong last month by getting a new backup Grand I'd get a backup REO as soon as I could if I were you

Welcome to the Grand side of the family! I've never missed my mini--- but I've never had a mini to miss. (except my cutie patootie OG). I change out my battery every day and refill my bottle every other day. Life is grand.

 

[rtrain99]

The grand at 6v just killer. Pair that with an HH atty and some Boba or Gorilla, awesome.

FINALLY!!!!!!! No disrespect to the employees, but USPS SUCKS!!!!! Would you guys believe that I just received my batteries. The worst part is, I ordered the batteries 2 days "BEFORE" I ordered the Grand. I have been trying to be good and stay away from the forum until I could come back with a review of the "Grand Experience" and have been frustrated to say the least. This is in no way the fault of the online store. Don't know if I can mention their name here but they are a great mom and pop company I heard of on ecf, and I received my 14500's from them in 3 days with a hand written thank you note.
Whoo, ok, got that out.... Now, the Grand....... WoW!!!
I know a lot of people say there is no difference in the hit @ 3.7 between the mini and grand, but i definitely feel a difference. Maybe it's just in my head because the grand is bigger, I don't know LoL. Rob you're right about chain vaping on a 14500, there is a considerable difference in the 18650 and I'm Luvin' it. It's also a pleasure filling the bottle every other day, Nice!
I also wanted to say that I believe everyone was put here to make a difference in the life of someone else. Whether we realize it or not. And we don't even have to know "when" we touch or make that difference, as long as someone was affected by our actions in a positive way. That's what made me take hypnosis seriously. I used to just do party stuff, no therapy. At the end of the show I would always give the person I was working with positive suggestions to make them feel better, sleep better, confidence or whatever. Sort of a parting gift that I didn't think twice about until I started receiving tons of phone calls and emails from people saying how much it helped them. So here I am today, a master hypnotist making a difference everyday. A couple of years ago I was a New York security guard doing hypnosis for fun. Sorry for rambling on and on, my point is, I wonder if Rob realizes what a special human being he is. A few years ago he was a Cig smoker like the rest of us, and today he touches and helps to save lives across the globe. We all have that quality, we just don't know when it's going to show itself or in what way. None of us were born to just grow up, get a job and pay taxes. We all have a higher purpose and a spiritual reason for being here.
Sorry guys. You learn a lot communicating with people's unconscious minds and higher selves and the Reo Grand has me on a serious nicotine buzz that just took me somewhere else. Sorry bout that
Sidebar: can anyone tell me how long a 18490 will last me chain vaping? I was getting 3 hours out of the 14500 if that helps. Thanks.

CONGRATULATIONS Hypnotist!! USPS does suck. I hate them from time to time myself but, at least the order comes through LOL I agree that there is a little bit of a difference between the Grand and a mini. Did a test on it myself when I tested each under load with my volt indicator with a 1.5 ohm 306. Here's a few pics of my findings:

Grand

Mini

Anyways, it's great that you take so much pride and satisfaction from your job. It's well deserved and a great success story as well. Agree with your message and the effect that Rob has with making REO's that DO effect people's lives in many ways. Really glad that you like your Grand.

The 18490's are a 1100 mah and so, that will last about 8 - 12 hrs depending on how heavy you vape. So, there isn't going to be that much difference from the battery life you get from your Grand.

 

[The_Hypnotist]

@washvap: thanks for confirming the difference for me, wasn't sure if I was bugging out or not since they are both 3.7 volts. I see there isn't much difference in the 18490 battery now you really got me rubbing my hands together in anticipation of the mini woodie. Thank you.

 

[washvap]

No problem, had the same feeling and performed this test to satisfy my curiosity. Did you check out the thread yet? The batch that is coming out is NIIIICCCEEEE! Wanna get a few of them myself.

 

[The_Hypnotist]

Oh yeah, did I ever. Too bad I can only afford one
