    My impressions of the VAMO variable volt, variable watt, multi size MOD. This mod will work with one or 2-18350 or 1-18650 batteries. I intend to use it mostly with 1-18350 but it will not work with non-IMR protected batteries, which is all I have. I have orderded IMR batteries. My 18650's are...

    I discovered that my 18650 batts are IMR and my 18350's are not. The first response I got from the vendor said it won't work with some batteries. I supspect that means non-IMR protected ones. My + post up inside is dead center and about 0.2" in diameter. There is a paper? donut outboard of...

    Ordered VAMO on Monday and rec'd it this AM. Unfortunately, it won't fire. It does everything it's supposed to do except work...lol. When I push the button it shuts itself off. I suspect a short but I will wait to hear from the vendor. :( FWIW, it is very well made and surprisingly heavy. Of...

    tx...I went with black...that's what I was having such a hard time finding. Not only .10/pack, but the Chesterfields in C-rations were free :laugh: I can't believe I was so desparate for a smoke. No colds?? That's 'cause we're so old we've had 'em all :vapor:

    Thank you tx. Ordered. I've been looking and looking and missing out on the co-ops. Vaping is an interesting activity compared to smoking. I would stick with the same brand of cigarettes for years and not even think about switching. Now, everytime a new PV or whatevermizer comes out, I feel...

    TW65...glad you're here. I am still amazed how easily I stopped smoking after 50 yrs. In my opinion, spend some money on quality vaping gear and some time here learning the ropes. Just think...no more exhorbitant taxes going to the sanctimoneous #@!&%$#'s that raised them so high as soon as we...

    I came here to request a black VAMO but I might settle for gun metal.

    From the FWIW department: I try to not leave batteries in the charger unattended but I'm getting older and more forgetful and I'm between the house and the shop a lot. Sometimes I go out there to get something, forget what it was, and end up working on some projectf for a couple hours...

    I'm using the T3 with an XL3 VV mod. The 1.8 T3 works very well on "low" which meters at 2.98 volts on my XL3. The 2.5 T3 works well at a metered voltage of 3.68.

    That's what I'm talkin' about!! I looked and looked and couldn't find a convertible 18650/18350 VV, VW in black. Just yesterday I told myself: "Self, be patient. The market will insist on it and you shall prevail". If you see the coop notification, please let us know. Thanks.

    How long did you smoke, and why did you quit?

    50 yr. smoker...65 y/o...1-2ppd. Started with Apollo Extreme Kit in March by leaving my cigs in the shop. I would only smoke when I really wanted to. Throughout March, I smoked 2.5 packs and gave the remaining 1/2 pack to LOML. I started with 24mg juice but I'm a heavy hitter and would get the...

    I use DIY menthol/mint juice and I think the flavor with the T3 is "clearer" and they vape cooler for me...I'm a heavy vaper when I'm vaping. I haven't cleaned any T3 coils yet but will probably try what works well for the T2's. Soak in denatured alcohol then rinse under hot tap water...shake...

    I have a big trash can next to my desk and I shake 'em like a thermometer. I think it's condensation as much as anything. I've used a T3 constantly for 5 days without any gurgling or leaking....hurrayyyyy!! And I bought 10 units and 20 coils in the recent coop. Should be good for awhile. :vapor:

    Hey NGIB, good to see you. I, too, am still a T-2 fan but you gotta try a Kanger T3 Rebuildable Clearomizer - Clear. They hold a bit more juice, bottom coil makes them a bit cooler when vaping hard and the one I'm using right now has lasted me 3 days with no change in performance.

    Even though my phone has a flashlight app, I still reach for my Bic when I enter a dark space. I'm glad it's not there.

    Hi hr...I was smoking 1.5ppd when I found vaping. Menthol light 100's. I started at 24mg of nic but was soon down to 18 because I hit it hard and heavy. In less than one month I stopped using tobacco. It wasn't long before I started making my own juice and I'm making it 12mg now. I still vape a...
