All Things Reo

Seeing we have so many Reo's in South africa, can't we have a REO-Army section under the General forums?
Everytime I want to post something reo related, I need to search for this thread.
Just a question. Will make life a bit easier.

I agree. I'm also convinced that the numbers will grow as soon as Reo's are available locally.

Reoville will work perfectly.
Done. Please let me know if there are any more threads to be moved.
 
Ok, so I filed the mini and noaloxed it and it hits like a beast again.
I think the Grand and mini is pretty much the same. Bit of a premature judgement on my side guys. Sorry.
Keep the contacts clean, even if it doesn't look dirty!
Got 33g twisted coils on both and I am in love!
I will not return to anything else!
I love Spongebob and Patrick!!!!
 
Send them my regards @TylerD
Happy for you -
 
Good to know that I'm not missing out on too much @TylerD. My next buy is going to be some thinner kanthal for twisted coils.
 
I assume you need to order Button Covers if you want it to look kewl?

So, seems the Reo Woodvils were all sold in a flash and the new low sub-ohm kits should be available by around 20 March.

Would it make sense to hang on for this @Matthee!

Wow this is a first for me... doing a little research before diving in head first! :p
 
What is Noalox and what do you use it for?
It is an anti-oxidizing paste. You get some with your Reo.
From ECF. From Lisafo1

"I often get asked questions about Noalox and why it's so beneficial to use it on our mechanical mods.
Virtually every well-known mechanical mod manufacturer recommends it and many even ship their mods with Noalox pre-applied to various parts of the unit.

Here's why:

In a mechanical mod, the current is having to "jump" from one part of the mod to another.

Oftentimes, no matter how carefully you clean your equipment, some invisible oxidation or particles can remain on the contact points that interfere with the full current flow, or indeed, on the battery contact points themselves.

Noalox is a substance that contains zinc particles which conduct electricity. Using it on the contact points of your mod, bridges any miniscule gaps that may be caused by oxidation or dirt, or just a battery that's not as flat as it could be on its contact areas.

Additionally, the current must flow up the main tube, so any threaded joins that you have in the unit, can benefit from Noalox, both to keep the threads working nicely, and to ensure contact is maintained all throughout the threads.

I have seen some people talking about using petroleum-based products, however, this is a bad idea, and here's why:

Petroleum based products are non-conductive, so whilst they may make your threads operate all nice and smoothly, they may actually impede current flow. However, if you have threaded parts on your mod that frequently come into contact with juice, (such as within a juice feeding tank), petroleum jelly is the better product to use here to keep threads flowing freely, but only in an area where current is not expected to flow.

Hope that helps explain the situation."

Lol, Yes, it probably would...but it did not stop me from getting my Mini. Problem is, no longer 20 March, more like end of April - the manufacturer did not deliver as promised.
 
So by reading a couple of posts here today, it seems as if some new and ex-Reo owners, might just be awaiting some Reomail with clenched buttocks and ragged fingernails.

I figured it was a good time to come clean and finally admit, that I too, have received Reomail from near Maine a few weeks ago. My Reo Mini in blue & black wrinkle arrived the last week of Feb. Since then some more serious life matters have unfortunatly come up, and I guess I just wasnt much in the right frame of mind for "show & tell", if you guys can accept that as a mitigating factor.

My Mini has been close to my side however, and now that things seem a bit calmer, I just thought I should share.

I will sing the Reo's praises by pointing you to every current/previous Reo owner's posts on here, because everyting they said, is undoubtebly true. It is an awesome device, a lung punching, cloud breathing, flavor spewing juicemonster.

Below is a picture for the thread (learning the camera on my new phone, proves a bit more tricky than the Reo itself was to learn, it seems)

So hello Reoville, thank you for having me......

Awesome stuff. Most welcome to this outpost of Reoville. Thought I saw a reference to your Reo in a post you made here on the forum somewhere, then thought maybe you were joking. Anyhow, glad things are back to less serious. Now we need to get you registered on ECF. Are you a member there? If not, no problem - I can get your name on the list - let me know please.

Thank you so much Mayor @Matthee ! Appreciate your words and guidance through your posts on here, it has made both the process of getting, and the learning so much easier!

Yes I think I made an offhand comment in one of the battery threads, no one called me on it though. I have actually registered on ECF not many days ago yes (my post will be under name McJuicebottle) and they have allready updated the households list.

Which by the way shows we are now on 18 households (?) and have thus passed the French *spit* and are now 4th on the rest of the world list.

Been waiting patiently to purchase my Reo. Was hoping to get the upgraded subohm kit, but now that it has been delayed I think I may actually fire off an order and then upgrade when it launches.

Hopefully we will be at 20 Reonauts soon
