    Which APV To Get???

    I have a stainless VAMO and I'm happy with it. I also have a Zmax that I'm happy with. I would buy the Sigelei Zmax today vs. the Smoktech I have for a couple of reasons. I might pick up a kicked telescope at some point but I prefer to have my controls out where I can get to them. I...

    Resistance-No Resistance wire welder

    LOL, Tickle. I grew up in Climax VA and lived there as an adult before moving to Hampton Roads VA. Actually, Climax VA is in Pittsylvania County and not Franklin County. I enjoyed my wasted youth.... :)

    Resistance-No Resistance wire welder

    I get mine back around Franklin County VA but they don't call it "EverClear". :blink:

    Thinking about getting a Vamo but...

    I would like to see the T3 just offered in both eGo and 510 native and then you wouldn't have a problem.

    Thinking about getting a Vamo but...

    I've been using a T3 all week on my VAMO with a 510-eGo adapter. No problems and it easily comes off of both the T3 and the VAMO. It would be cool for the T3 to fit in the well but its not a big deal to me.

    smoketek or segelie

    If I were to buy a new one I'd be buying the Segeile. I prefer the screen and build of it better. There's my opinion.

    How do you carry your VAMO?

    I will need to come up with a proper way to carry mine while riding my motorcycles. None of my jackets have a pocket at the appropriate place. I'll probably build a harness of some sort to keep it convenient for a vape while riding. I just put it in my pocket when I'm out and about and try...

    Problem with my newer stainless VAMO compared to my older gunmetal one?

    This spring works perfectly and the batteries seem secure enough to me though I haven't really shook the crap out of it. AvidVaper Helix Hot Spring You will need to tweak the first round of the spring out a bit to make it snug in a v2 cap but after that it works a charm.

    VAMO has died , less than 30 days .

    Thanks for the followup! It may be the "2nd Spring" which has been reported in some instances to have too high a resistance is causing damage to the circuitry. Your issue here sounds like a short circuit on the board or the fire button. At the rate these things are selling they may have...

    VAMO has died , less than 30 days .

    Sorry to hear about the problem. Do you know which generation the unit is? What do you use as a head typically? Wattage/Voltage? Have you had any accidents with it or shocks to the system? Which battery spring was in it? I don't know if you used a light to see but you could also check...

    VAMO and Kangers?

    I picked up an adapter when I bought my Kanger T3 and it works well on the VAMO. There is a small gap but it works very very well. As it stands I'm sold on the Kanger T3 for my to-go tank. BTW, I screw the adapter into the T3 and then attach it to the VAMO and just use my judgment (though some...

    Thanks but Im in trouble !

    First off, you took the correct route. It is always easier to gain forgiveness than it is to get permission. If I get a kitchen pass I'm up for a road trip with ya to the vapemeet. I don't know who's going to drive back though, it is a bar......

    Got my first vamo question

    Simple fix if you wish to do so. I might return it as this may indicate some other trauma the device suffered. If you wish to fix it you would need a block of wood, a shop cloth, and a rubber mallet. Remove all heads and remove the lower barrel. Place the Vamo with the top down on the...

    Vamo First Impressions

    Crazy talk I tell ya! Man you don't waste time on collecting equipment. I am using the VAMO exclusively right now and haven't found fault with it.

    2nd broken one in less than a month!!!

    There are meters that can accurately measure the voltage. I have one. My Fluke is true RMS so it can measure these. The better measure is to test while under load though so either you have to build a rig to do that or you purchase a e-cig meter.

    The big 2.5 letdown

    I have a SS VAMO and haven't dropped I doubt it would have any problem at all with a drop of significant height. I have a SS Zmax and did toss it off the roof of my car into the road and there's not a scratch on it. The drip tip is still missing in action though. I've read posts about the...

    Flashlight? No really.

    Good catch Buzzsaw! I hadn't even thought about that point.

    Flashlight? No really.

    Yes sir, I had seen that one and I may get one but its not a variable volt high-output LED. I suppose I could buy one of those and put the guts in it that I want. I would prefer something based on a CREE with a focus ring but hey, you can't always get what you want right?

    Flashlight? No really.

    I have been considering buying a flashlight that would take a 18350 or 18650 just to have and use with batteries that aren't in top shape for vaping. But having a screw on with something like a CREE high-output LED accepting variable volts would rock on a 510 connector. I wish I still had...

    Looking for a small mechanical Mod i can run a kicked 18350 in.

    I looked at doing that and went with a VAMO in 18350 mode. It is 4 inches in that mode and has both 510 and ego threads though it won't allow a Kanger T3. If you find something you like I hope you post it as I didn't find anything suitable to me so I'd be interested in your finds.
