REO - The Basics

[Alex]

Hi @Alex I'm in Kempton Park not far to Benoni ......... I'll bring m'bucket
Dave

Sure thing @DaveH, pull in anytime. This week I'm home alone

Some are powder coated, as far as I know, my white reo is powder coated.

A couple are also anodised (there is a black version, and as far as I know, the gold is also anodised)

Thanks @KB_314 I saw the black anodized, I couldn't find anything about whether they were powder coated or painted.
I'm just nosey plus I like the idea of having different colours.

You mean like this one on the right

 

[DaveH]

Sort of ........... but without all those holes.

Just like that one! I have been after one for a while - not too optimistic about getting hold of a P67... if I can't, I'll def be on the pre-order list for a black anodised sl just like that

Same here, I was planing on another SL but I want to see about another O16 first. The SL will always be there for me and the P67 looks promising but I'd like to see one first.

Cost about R37.00 incl VAT for a 1Kg tin if I recall from my last purchase.

Sorry to jump on an old thread but I'm awaiting delivery on my P67 and would really like to have everything on hand before she arrives, can you tell me how I can purchase this? On the website i don't see any purchase options, are they wholesale only and if so who stocks it retail? Do I need any other maintenance goodies?
So far I have the
White eraser,
A box of isopropyl alcohol (70% isopropyl alcohol)swabs they use before injections,they're nice and thin and should be very convenient to just open 1 and run over contacts,
A thin brush,
Contemplating getting an ultrasonic cleaner to make life a little easier.
Any input and advice would be appreciated

I purchased this as a cash sale at the counter.

Try to get yourself a service kit for the P67, and a extra hot spring. The Ultrasonic works like a charm.

Very nice thread Mathee.
Some questions because I am interested about.
1) Differences between SL- GrandGrand on Bats and Juice bottle?
2) Any idea about when some models will be back in stock?

Didn't see any service kits on the site but I did order an extra hot spring and positive contact

The Grand LP is the 1 you would want, it's the low profile version, so you can use a variety of atomizers, SL is the 1s with the cutouts, just makes it lighter in weight. There are plenty of Grand LPs in Stock on www.reosmods.com, if you are ordering read the 1st post in this thread as a guide to what to get

 

[Petrus]

@Moey_Ismail, my apologies, I just see that no service kit is available for the P67. The hotspring and the positive contact is good to have spare. If you take well care of your mod and take note of your builds, I can't see any problems soon.

As @Moey_Ismail said, no difference between the LP (low profile) Grand and the SL (superlight) LP Grand, other than the cutouts in the SL and the price - same bottles and batteries. The modmaster is in semi-retirement so only batches of the P67 is made from time to time. And sold out very quickly.

No worries man, other than the above I did order a couple extra magnets and 5 Italian bottles with feeding tubes. I think it would have been wise to get an extra delrin cover screw, spring screw,510 center post amd maybe even the 510 adjusting grub screw but a little too late for that idea now

Spot on @Andre, and to note again... Robert has around a 1000 new Reos in stock from his other latest product lines. So mostly it's only the P67 and Woodvil's that are in short supply.

@Moey_Ismail, if you want to order again, keep me in mind I want some spares as well

Will definitely do so. I got a great deal on shipping this time round as my wife's an air hostess and had layover in New York so I got it shipped to her hotel @$9, when she has New York again I'll tell you in advance with the hotel details if you don't mind waiting to get your order when she's home for her monthly visit

I don't mind at all, last time my order were shipped via USPS and I waited almost three months.

So I spoke to Rob from reosmods and he said it will be a couple of months until there are more P67's, i'm not sure I can wait that long
I came up with this, is there anything I don't need or something I have left out? What is a reducer tube? I just put them in incase it's needed.
Also, I found a Cyclone available in SA, would this be ideal for MTL? The Reo site doesn't have stock of the RM2 atty.
Just a few more deciding factors before I pull the trigger

Seeing that you are getting the 8.5ml Italian bottles you don't have to get the 6ml ones.But it is up to you.You will only be using the 8.5ml bottles.

You don't need the reducer tubes.

And it works out cheaper to just get a repair kit.It includes the spring,contact leaf.Basically everything you need.

Shipping will be $55.
