It's just a pity reos are hard to come by in these parts and are slightly expensive due to our crap exchange rate

FWIW, it works both ways across the pond. Back in my tube mod days I bought a lot of gear from Greece, the UK, etc (VapourArt GP, By Leo, Kir Fanis, Senio and other Euro gear) when the USD was weak against the EUR. The EUR was like 30 +/- percent stronger against the USD then than it was last year. So what I bought for high cost back then has been at far less cost since if it was still being made. The up side if there is one is the unicorns I got that were only available for a few minutes, hour or a day back then. IE a GP PAPS TiX with the lowest serial number available outside of company ties on sale day from a very small one time run that sold out within minutes (it's still brand new, unused... I started using Reos instead of tube mods right after I got it).
Hi @Spydro
Thanks for the explanations. Lovely to read
I wish I could have more hours in the day
Still busy with so many things on the day job and the forum duties that I often go for a week or two with very little time to do pitstops.
But i know exactly what you mean about dedicating a juice to a particular device and atty.
I have the same thing but with far less devices than you
Makes it simple
But the desire to try new things (juice and gear wise) does get the better of me on occasion, which then upsets the harmony i had going. Lol
I'm sure you guys have noticed that not only does Spydro have an awesome, gorgeous collection of REOs, but he has mad photography skills! He could make an eGo Spinner look desirable.....

I don't k now about that gal pal. You have more Reos than I do. As for the pics, sometimes I do get lucky and get a few truly great pictures. But most of them are just so-so. I do still have a lot of very high end camera gear from the film camera days, but haven't used any of it for many years. And one of my digital SLR camera's was the highest end one available at one time (also way out dated). I just use the cheapest one of the 3 digi's I still have for these pictures. A little 10MP Canon PowerShot A495 that is way, way, way out dated. Composition, angles, lighting and backgrounds (the fluff) are help cheats with vape gear. Folks tend to notice them more than your failures in other elements of the picture.

Spydro's pics and stories of his collection are legendary. This from a man who came to reoville and announced that he "wasn't going to go crazy" with the reos. That was 18 months and a bazillion mods ago. Do the math, people.
Hahaha. This is so true. Back in the beginning I had one little REO Mini (14500) and thought that was all I would ever need. For months and months it never occurred to me that I'd want or need another one. Besides, back then they were NOT easy to get. He'd make them up in batches of 15-20 at a time and they'd be gone the minute they hit the site. There was no such thing as inventory. Somewhere between then and now my entire mindset did a 180. He started adding colors, making different sizes, then making LP models, then SL doors and bodies, then adding the low-ohms contacts...then the new 510....and he started having REOs on the site --- INVENTORY --- just sitting there saying "buy me!" So what could I do? I had to buy.Spydro's pics and stories of his collection are legendary. This from a man who came to reoville and announced that he "wasn't going to go crazy" with the reos.

Yeah right, like neither of you two had anything to do with it (the old forums card carrying front runner Reo enabler and the sneaky one in the background).
As a wood kind of guy it was tough enough when I started too... Woodvil's were pretty hard to get and sold for top dollar. Same with my OG VVG. Was real happy to get an original VVG in pristine condition other than the Silver Vein had darkened some.
Running a drilled out IGO-S on it now days...

@Spydro, now you must stop posting your pics, I am on and off Reomods the whole night "instead of sleeping like normal people, looking for another P67, damn, these Reo's are soooooo addictive.Yeah right, like neither of you two had anything to do with it (the old forums card carrying front runner Reo enabler and the sneaky one in the background).

Hahaha, @Petrus! Addictive indeed. And his pictures are so pretty.
Wow, Spydro...your OG VV even has the very first original button. Neat. He ended up replacing those for anyone who wanted him to. I ended up having mine replaced because it went out, but I loved that first little button and would have kept it if it hadn't gone out.Yeah right, like neither of you two had anything to do with it (the old forums card carrying front runner Reo enabler and the sneaky one in the background).

Life is too short to waste time sleeping. I went through my life with my hair on fire trying to do it all while I still could. So I've never slept like "normal" folks (unless when I was a baby... too far back to remember). The closer to the end of the road I get the more adamant I am about not wasting the time doing it. In time you'll see that I'll post here at any hour of the day or night. I run my errands in the wee hours of the night, catch a short nap now and then only when I do get tired enough anytime day or night that it happens on it's own.
This OG VVG was taken care of, but I sent it back to the spa anyway and had Rob check it out completely. It vapes like a dream. I only use it as a special treat Reo with a pipe tobacco NET in the wee hours of the night when I can sit and ponder old memories with it. I did similar all the years I smoked pipes.

Thank you
This is my collection.
In daily use for 2 months short of 2 years.
All raw tumbled just with different doors so I know who's who
On the left is REO Blue and REO Red with Nuppins. Mainly fruity menthols in there. For lung hits.
Then the RM2 family for mouth to lung and accurate flavor.
REO Black is for tobaccoes. Usually Blackbird.
REO Silver is for any other juice and typically serves as a juice review device. Currently in there is World Wonders Table Mountain.
And then REO Mini which is my portable that has only one juice in it and goes with me wherever I go. VM Choc Mint with extra coffee concentrate.
12mg in the Nuppins and 18mg in the RM2s. Good throat hit and great flavour.
The family has given me so much pleasure and so many flavour filled vapes. They have also travelled with me on various trips. Such a solid dependable bunch.

Those are so cool looking all standing at attention. The tumbled bodies really make the doors pop. Isn't it funny how they each take on a personality.....like members of the family. I tell ya, we're a bunch of crazy (but happy) people.....
Okay, so here's a clutch (gaggle? murder? pride?) of the metals (there are more but they're too shy).....
A couple of VVG's (one OG button, one not), a couple of mini 2.1's, and a smattering of grands (mixture of SL's, LP's, and not eithers).
Here's another shot with them at muster to show the atties a tad better (each one gets a unique one, the spoiled little brats)....

Nice. Very, very nice.
My gosh @Papa_Lazarou - that is a fine "clutch" indeed!
Marvellous!!
Marvellous!!
You are so right - they do take on a particular personality
Also owing to the juices that get put in.
So for example, Reo Black is affectionately known by me as "thumper" because it always has a bold strong juice and a good strong build. This is the "mascot pic" for Reo Black. Haha.
So....REO Black's mascot pic is a big PINK bunny......Hmmmm. Maybe you should get that P67 with the hot pink door.... It could have a big, black bear as a mascot....
^^^ this, exactly.
Each of mine has a character. Some wake me up, some calm me down, some are mischievous, some are very wise and conciliatory. As Spydro lives by, the marriage of atty, build, and juice is a delicate interplay which, when dialled in, are as well drawn as any protagonist in a play.
I've named them all, as silly as that sounds (although Ruprecht is not at all happy with his name and insists the others call him "Beau" - such a poser, and sooooo Ruprecht).
I wouldn't want to arm wrestle that bunny for rights to the top bunk.
Ha. Too true.
