Emotionally attached and sentimental value

[Clouds4Days]

Good day fellow vapors.
Here is one too talk about.
Everyday I seen new adds in the classifieds people flogging vape goodies.
My question is what piece of hardware are you attached to that no matter what you will never flog it, and if possible give a reason?

Guess I created this thread so I should start.
Well off the bat I'm new to vaping so my gear is all pretty new but if I had to pick one piece of hardware it would be my rx200.
Purley because at low watts it has good battery life and if I wanna crank it up it can handle that too. It's basically all round dam good.

Vape on...

My cloupor Gt cause it is a performer, it never let's me down and also it is the mod I won in a competition

My Vtc mini, small lightweight and packs a huge punch for a single 18650. My go to mod for any situation

 

[Rob Fisher]

I have a few... will do some pics and come back and post...

My one and only Reo Grand.

My one and only Reo Grand.

And why?... I know it's a Reo but maybe there is more to it?

 

[rogue zombie]

And why?... I know it's a Reo but maybe there is more to it?

Basically, because I basically killed it (abused it, shorted it)... Then rebuilt it and renewed it.
I have therefore formed a massive attachment to it because of this - I usually just break things, and they stay broken.

This, and because I know EXACTLY how it ticks, and can diagnose any few issues that may arise.

Well, I have lots of mods that I'll keep for as long as they function due to practical reasons (most are mechs, all are squonkers).

But the OP title asks for those with emotional value and sentimental attachment, so here's mine...



As a REO grand, it will function long after civilization as we know it collapses and I will be able to trade REO's for land.

This one, however, is my "special" mod - a devil may care companion that's been with me through some very intense moments travelling abroad (anyone else ever lost your wife in a spice bazaar in Old Delhi or been given the ol' "you must buy this carpet" shakedown in a back room in Cairo?). The stories he could tell you would curdle your milk (or have you spitting it out through your nose from laughter).

This mod knows me better than any other one I've every owned.

I also have to say my Reo I know its only been like a month or so but if you ever looked at that car you know that special one you know you cant afford but still would love one. Well that was a Reo grand from me. Then in a trade a Reo in my life became a reality.
In the short time I have had it the I have grown so close to it its scary. One thing I can assure you the fun has just begun

Probably the device I am most emotionally attached to has to be original Avril the REO Grand engraved all over by Jacques Herbst (aka Hands). She started out as a SL/LP REO with an engraved door... when I first saw the door finished I know we would need an all over engraving job and ordered a Tumbled LP from Rob... and it went straight to @hands when it arrived...

 

[Rob Fisher]

Two more REO's that will never be sold or leave the Vape Cave are my two modified and stabilised wood inlay REO Grands done by John Bensley (aka @Genosmate).



Added to the no sale list are my Wood JB mods and Casper also by John...

 

[BumbleBee]

I'm hanging on to this piece of garbage because it's what got me started. Those cigalikes before it were just toys, they don't count

 

[Pixstar]

My Subox Mini, my first device. Still use it, although not as often. Also my first Goblin Mini.

And this is what finally broke my 3 pack a day habit, this bad boy I will never let go of, it has a very special place in my heart.

Damn those are nice!!!

 

[Rob Fisher]

I have owned a few REO Woodvils in my time and have been cajoled and nagged into selling them... and only two remain... both are stabilsed... the Salmon coloured one I bought off the Reosmods web site in one of the famous sales... and the other was quite special in that the wood was procured by a mate on ECF by the name of Gil (and sometimes pops in here to ecigssa to say hello - aka @Unsure). He sent the wood to Rob and I asked Rob if he would make me a special Woodvil which graciously agreed to do. And that's the blue one!

I have been tempted to sell the Salmon coloured one but everytime I get her to take picture a for an advert I can't quite do it.

 

[Rob Fisher]

Maria the 91% Russian authentic and the Sigelei 20W was my first real vape love!

 

[Clouds4Days]

Nice equipment my vaping family. Wow and here I'm ranting and raving about my ol common rx200. Hahaha
But this is what I like. Digging in that bottom draw and pulling out all those old faithful.

 

[Rob Fisher]

Two of my most expensive mods I have battled to "bond" with... they are both fantastic performers... but they just haven't really worked their way into my heart... the Custom Classic (Cee Cee) Mod and the Lil Pinch.

 

[Clouds4Days]

@Rob Fisher Now I know why rob from Reo mods got tired and retired. He couldn't keep up with all your orders. Hahahaha

 

[kyle_redbull]

Wow some stunning Reo's... @Rob Fisher just wow. I've heard vaping a Reo versus anything else is just not the same and once you've tried it you will never go back to a normal mod? Is this correct?

And two REO Grands that I would never sell are my SL/LP's that have probably seen more service than all my other mods and devices put together! These two are family!

While that would have been true a while ago it's no longer true... back in the days when tanks leaked, were a hassle to build and get right, didn't have the power and so on there was no really good vape like a REO... but today we have tanks and mods that give a fantastic vape.

The bottom line is I am never ever with a REO... and I mean never... I always have one with a fresh rayon wick in a Divo (BF Atty) on top of a REO Grand with an Italian Bottle filled with Vapour Mountain Tropical Ice 9mg and a full battery. And if I could only have one setup this would be it.

But I am loving the Target and Gemini tanks with cCell ceramic coils on top of Snow Wolf Mini's, Minikin and Presa mods... I have different juices (mainly Vapour Mountain XXX) in 5 of them and they have just really outstanding lung hitting flavour.

 

[Clouds4Days]

And I'm sure the reliability on these regulated mods now are much better than what they used to be. Which is why Reo also has such a great name. (Just don't drop your regulated mod cause they all made from plastic)

Very nice thanks Rob. Maybe one day when I get more experience and an understanding of how drippers and Reo's work I'll look at getting one. I just love the look of the woodvils just beautiful.
