    Vamo voltage drop issue

    Good review for the tech part. 5:15 starts on the numbers.

    Would stacked 18350s prolong the life of the Vamo?

    Can't remember where I read it but it was designed to run 3.7v and 7.4v, so if it was designed to handle it I don't think either one would really increase/decrease it's lifespan, it's chinese electronics, I expect mine to last 1-2 yrs of heavy use. Same as my Lavatube, it lasted about a year.

    Volts/watts sweet spots??

    depends... 3 ohm carto tank: 5-6w 1.2 ohm wrap on Z-Atty U: 9-10w

    Vamo voltage drop issue

    it's counting total volts, 3.7v x 2 = 7.4v

    Vamo voltage drop issue

    I vape at high voltages so I usually change out around 3.7, but yeah at that point I would probably go ahead and change batts, .3v will probably only get you about another 30m or so on a 18350

    Vamo voltage drop issue

    It's normal considering at that point the battery is basically dead, it will give "Lo" warnings for the battery at 3.2v, but it depends on what you're vaping, if you're vaping a 1.5ohm carto at 3.5v then it wouldn't drop off much, but if you got a 3 ohm and trying to vape at 5.5v it just ain't...

    The future of vaping?

    At this point we're at kind of a peak as far as options go, really VW is the latest innovation, really anything new now is mainly cosmetic. I really don't see anything new come out as far as delivery after the ceramic wicks make it into production. Now I think it will start focusing more on...

    What are you waiting for in the mail?

    Not yet, but it can happen, I've also seen lazy postal workers not scan an item at all and show no movement until it's delivered. Recently had one sit in Hawaii for 2 weeks going by the scan until I got it, then showed all the scans afterward. So just give it some time.

    RBA might not be for me = (

    I will say I never could get one to work on my aga-t, it found it's way into the bottom of the lake behind my house and ordered a z atty u and never had a problem.

    ah can't really tell by the pics but they look different. i'll look at the hardware store, or maybe send zen a messg and see if he can sell me something or point me in the right direction.

    Finally Got Genesis Style Rebuildable Working!

    they each have their ups and downs, when I get the ea I'll have to get a kick for it, i don't like the idea of the vape diminishing as the battery drains down, but I figured will have a ele and mech mod so can see which direction to go from there. will be my first mech. but i think i'll like it...

    Finally Got Genesis Style Rebuildable Working!

    Yeah never really had a prob with carto's, just after getting a rba the flavor is just nothing in a carto, got an ea mod in the works (gg clone) and will be getting a z atty g to go on it, and will keep this z atty u on my vamo, I just wish you could lay these z attys down, kinda hard to keep it...

    Finally Got Genesis Style Rebuildable Working!

    Yeah I stopped watching after 35-0 just wasn't a point anymore. They really need a playoff system in place, glad they won. But I want to see a game, not one side playing while the other is playing tiddly winks or something.

    Finally Got Genesis Style Rebuildable Working!

    if it's close you can just burn off, I've went from straight tobacco flavor to gorilla juice with just dry burn, but if you got something with some strong flavor like cinnamon I really don't know, my palette is pretty limited. I read someone putting in some everclear in the tank and letting it...

    Finally Got Genesis Style Rebuildable Working!

    I changed it a couple times just to see how fast I can do it, plus the first one got a little overcooked when first adjusting, I got it down now, bottom isn't even burned, just where it goes through the atty and the wrap. this one should last me a long time, they say a month or better, probably...

    replacement screw for z atty u?

    I ordered the replacement o ring kit from provape cause I know the new z attys have one allen wrench for both screws, but apparently the neg one is smaller all the way and too small to thread in the hole on mine. I don't know if that's just the design of the zap or all new z attys. Anyone know...

    Finally Got Genesis Style Rebuildable Working!

    grats, took me about 2 weeks, but I started with nichrome which I still can't get to work, took that 2 weeks to figure out it was the wire, after I got the kanthal got one going in 10 min, now can roll a wick, burn, wrap and vaping in like 2 min. didn't take long once i got the problem sorted out.

    The future of vaping?

    I see the future going back to the cigarette look, but better, science is working fast, as they get closer to nano batteries I can see a batt like the blu reg lasting weeks, among other tech being worked on. and I'm sure juices and delivery will advance, probably slower burning juices that last...
