Every year on my "stop-smoking" anniversary I decide to purchase a mod (sometimes two). Well, it was that time of year again, and I had many choices (price was not an option).
I thought about what I liked and disliked about vaping. Well, I truly enjoy vaping at various volts with various types of atty's. I disliked carto's, however, the dual coils have softened me a bit...they actually work! I knew I liked bottom feeders; the Ali'i I purchased last year is simply a stunning exotic wood mod that works very well. However, what I disliked was the fragility of the Ali'i (after 4 drops it was time to take the wood glue out). Then theres the VV Mods, which have come a long way. The Darwin and Provari seem to be the class of the pack...and I could easily use a "tank" to accommodate more juice. However, what I didn't like about the Darwin and Provari was the aesthetic look of the PV with a tank on it...also, I'm not very careful with my PV's, and chances are the tank would crack in my pocket at work while Im in a meeting.
After doing much research on various forums (including this one), and watching many videos, the only choice for "my" vaping needs was the REO Grand by reosmods.com
It has similar features (batts/bottles/attys) as the Ali'i, but its made out of aircraft aluminum (so my ceramic/wood floors may get a beating from it). I've used it for 3 days now, on various combinations of volts/attys/juices, and it hits like a champ (the all mechanical/conductivity is awesome) The biggest surprise was that the REO Grand is smaller than the Ali'i, so if size is a concern, you can also look at the REO Mini. The only draw back is it's heavier and the button needs some getting used too (just different spot than the Ali'i).
What ever you decide, make certain you think about what your vaping needs are first, dont let vendors or so called celebrity e-cig personalities sway you.
Good luck
Btw if your considering any type of REO mod, have a look at their sub-forum here great group of people, with many tips/trips.
