no youtube reviews of clone vs original guys???? are we all worried about takedown notices? Cant find a single video review of a device that must have sold 1000 units by now

thats nice...very nice.,..and a good price too.

my plan for oreo is going to be:
take clone reo , hold to side of bench grinder...wait a small bit.
finish up with a beer and some sandpaper.
chalice is ok, but empties too quickly..prefer something 22mm. Plus, I can stick a chalice back on once oreo has been modded if that ever takes my fancy again.

good to hear...I've been using mine for two days and have noting bad to report, all works as it should.
BUT.
on the owl this morning as felt like having some clouds in the lounge:-)
Wifey dont like the reo, prefers her plastic owl.

Arent you finding the bottle a bit hard in comparison? Thats my only gripe, but they are $0.65 form reosmods (excluding hefty shipping, so maybe we should do a groupbuy...say 6 bottles each type thing)
(reason being: mix, stick into bottles..auto-steep......monday/tuesday/wednesday etc...then just screw in a new bottle everyday, like a pill box)
haha

the original goes up and down too with no atty fitted.
Under correction, but on the LP models a 22mm rda will then overhang the door and prevent it sliding up. (I think). The clone, as best as I can tell, is 1:1 barring some finishing nonsense (I have a small blemish on my door, and a tad too much paint, so slid it up and down 40 times and now it is pukka good)

The *only* exception is the 510 adjuster works in the traditional manner, not reverse threaded (on mine). The first lot of reo featuring this new connector were like that, but it was changed to reverse threaded shortly thereafter. So we can actually "date" when this clone was copied.
As it is, I have the screw all the way in, and a chalice fitted, and no hassles. As I intend to use it with a chalice I'm happy.
I have another one coming from gearbest which will have an rm2 fitted and gifted away, so we will see when that one comes..:-)

I'm overall happy...I am waiting for comparison reviews (no doubt they will come) but I'm confident this is a very good copy. Embarassingly good.

a lot of youtube video watching, and we have some good news...
the "2015" reo features a hoople proof, adjustable 510 connector (hoople appears to be a name that reo people use to refer to idiots who are customers yet still manage to break things.)

it matches this connector that our clone has. The new connector uses the hex adustment, same as this clone..So the clone is of recent model, but features the non-LP body. The upgraded 510 connector is probably the biggest change to the reo line in a long time. The other changes are the optional lower catchcup (LP version), and then the holes and slots made everywhere version (SL - super light)

slight ballache is that the very first of these new 510 had the adjustable bit normal threaded, i.e. clockwise to tighten. We know that what happens is as you screw down your atty, the pin also ends up moving down, defeating the purpose of it being adjustabel. That is why the sig100 had a reverse threaded adjuster.
Reosmods figured this out and quickly swopped the connector to a reverse threaded adjustable one.
Would love to know which variant is on the clone, obviously hoping it is the reverse threaded one, and if it is, please note this when adjusting and have some mechanical sympathy

I could do with one of these if someone wants to sell.
subtank mini + bellcap thing + rba base.
