Must say, I like the look of the anodized Reos. Of course the woods are far more beautiful, but so expensive and so rare!
how much does a new wood cost from reos mods

They cost between $160 and $180 depending on the wood used but they are impossible to buy... they release a couple of hundred every two years and they sell out in an hour or so... the only real chance of getting a Woodvil is to buy one from someone who is prepared to sell it.
 
oh thats not bad at all. how much did your second hand wood cost Rob?

you lucky fish. I thought they would sell at a premium due to scarcity

That one is still around on ebay. Reserve price not met. Highest bid was $250. Includes a Cyclone.

I can't find it? The only one I can find they want $575... also reserve not met at $365... I'm not sure I would pay $500 because that's just profiteering... :(
 
A man on a mission!!

My mission will start in a big way when I get back from the Cape... I will sit and watch the ECF classies everyday till I get one of those full sized ones with the light wood doors! :rock:
 
Don't know if any of you Reonauts have noticed, but mr. PBusardo has completed his Reo Review.



His moaning about the button seems weird to me, why didn't he just get a button cover? I have not even touched a Reo in my life and I know that o_O
 
@Die Kriek, surely by now you know that that is how Mr Busardo operates. He finds something small and niggly and harps on it until you forget about all the good things about the device. I have learnt to take his reviews with a bit of salt and to only watch his review if I am serious about a specific device. He is good at finding the small issues other reviewers will gloss over, but too long-winded for a good overview.

(He gave the MVP2, which I am sure you know is a favourite on these forums, a thumbs down due to the switch for the USB power out not being flush and the mod not being able to fire at or under 1 ohm.)

Well he did give the Reo a thumbs up, but the final half of his talk was almost completely 'button issue' and 'I want a DNA30 one'. Did enjoy the bit about the ProVari 1.75, but hate how he keeps saying 1 'dot' 75. Skipped the MVP vid because of that.

Now back on topic. Button issue aside I'm curious to hear what Reonauts think of his other findings?

To be fair his MVP2 review was of an older edition when it was just released. The button has since been revised. I do agree that he's reviews are too longwinded though.
 
well just watched that review and they're all a lot better on mute, as usual. And now I know how the button works.
Without sounding like...dunno...but it looks easy enough to make yourselves. Anybody had a try at one?
 
Just watched the review (thank you Kriek for posting it here for us!) I feel Phil's review was pretty fair all in all. He is very technically minded yes, and I knew he would say he is more into the regulated vaping. But he gave it a good thumbs up, and more we Reonaughts probably cannot ask for.

The button, wel he did harp on that a bit, but to be fair, without the button cover, VERY regular pushing can perharps cause a bit of a pressure point on your finger. I'm sure if he actually had the button cover, he would have Said: keep the cover on and it would be no big deal.

Liking the mod test he did to show how much better the SO kit performs. Trust me, you can tell it by just that first vape, after you installed the kit.

I just feel he should have given the Reomiser a go atleast, as it is the atty most often found on top the Reo. Since the Cyclone is so hard to get hold of.

My personal opinion, this time I will give Phil a thumbs up.

I agree @Vapey McJuicy. To resolve his regulated argument I would suggest he has numerous Reo's set up with different coils to suit his needs. Come on PBusardo get with the program, who has just 1 Reo these days anyway :p
