    Vamo V5 in short mode - battery or not meant to be?

    I didn't even really know the difference, but glad to know that having just RMS is a perk. Thanks for all your info, edlyle. You are a gentleman and a scholar. :D No more separating and then stacking same batteries ... yeah. Error code: n00b

    Vamo V5 in short mode - battery or not meant to be?

    Thank you!!! I believe I'll be investing in some purple ones. I think I've possibly screwed these red ones, judging by what edlyle's said. Live and learn, eh? I did read something about the changing modes, but apparently the newer ones don't switch between modes, according to my reading. They're...

    Vamo V5 in short mode - battery or not meant to be?

    Ooohh no ... well I guess I screwed that up. I did fully charge them before first use. I just checked separately. One at 3.8v (the one that was on top), other is at 3.9v.

    Vamo V5 in short mode - battery or not meant to be?

    I'd say it's about 5-6 hours of medium to heavy vaping between when I put in a fully charged battery and when it gets to 80% and the device kinda stops hitting. When I put it in the charger at that point, the charger readout says it's at 3.8v. Given the large capacity (3200mAh), I guess I was...

    Vamo V5 in short mode - battery or not meant to be?

    I agree, Andria. I have to turn my Vamos up higher than I normally do on other devices as well. Unfortunately, with this V5, it's definitely a battery issue. I turned that thing up as high as it would go and nothin'. At least, not with one battery. Seems to work great with stacked. I'm a bit...

    Vamo V5 in short mode - battery or not meant to be?

    I'm definitely questioning the vendor, at this point. I'm having some similar sort of issues with the other batteries I got from them as well (Panasonic NCR18650BD). I use those in my V8 35, and it works great when the batteries are at 100%, but as soon as it gets down to about 80%, the device...

    Vamo V5 in short mode - battery or not meant to be?

    Batteries are brand spankin' new. First time they were ever used was in this device yesterday. The voltage does seem to drop very quickly, but then goes back up. (Is that a good thing or bad thing?) This was while stacked, I didn't test them while using individually. I'm afraid to use them...

    Vamo V5 in short mode - battery or not meant to be?

    Good to know, thanks. I actually haven't even tried a 18650 in the V5, since the ones I have are too fat to fit in it.

    Vamo V5 in short mode - battery or not meant to be?

    Must be the difference between the purple and the red. I believe the purple have higher amperage, so that would make sense. The red is supposed to be 6A, which should be enough, but there's just no possible way that's accurate. Not with the way they're performing with this device. What do you...

    Vamo V5 in short mode - battery or not meant to be?

    So, I got a Vamo V5 primarily for use as a "traveling device". I have a Vamo V8 (or Vamo 35 depending on who you ask) that I use primarily, but it's heavy and big. I wanted something a bit more portable for taking places, so enter the V5. Really the only reason I bought this thing is because it...

    In Memoriam: MBV's Key Lime

    Sad, sad day. I just found out that Mt. Baker Vapor has discontinued their Key Lime flavor. Oh, Key Lime. You were too young and too delicious to meet such a fate. You were beautiful and juicy and limey; though you were wonderful on your own, you could be mixed with anything. You were always...

    All Mt Baker Vapor juices damage plastic tanks?

    Thanks! Yeah, I thought the same thing. That they were just putting that on everything they had received a report on for safety's sake. I shouldn't have said ALL flavors, I didn't look at all of them, but I did look at the bulk of them and it was on all the ones I looked at. I know that some...

    All Mt Baker Vapor juices damage plastic tanks?

    My tank thing is mainly due to my battery. I have an Innokin MVP 2.0 and I've had a hell of a time finding tanks that will fire with it. I bought two new tanks when I bought the MVP (one was a Protank 3) and neither of them works well with it. The only tank I've tried that works properly with it...

    All Mt Baker Vapor juices damage plastic tanks?

    Hellooooo! So I was just checking out Mount Baker Vapor's site, I figured I would give their juices a try after hearing so many good things about them here at ECF. All of their flavors say "Warning: This flavor has been reported to damage plastic tanks." Not just some of them, all of them. So...

    Boba's Bounty...too harsh?!

    Hm, strange. Maybe you just got a bad bottle? I'd try contacting their customer service and explaining what's going on, maybe they'll send you a new bottle.

    Boba's Bounty...too harsh?!

    Are you super duper triple sure you got it from Alien Visions? There's a knockoff company called Alien Vapor that also has a juice called Boba's Bounty, and from what I hear, their juices are horrible. You wouldn't be the first person to get the nasty knockoff by mistake, it's unfortunately very...

    What's Your Favorite "Tobacco" Flavor And Why?

    I want to add, don't pigeonhole yourself with flavors. I felt the same way as you when I first started, I figured I would only like tobacco juices because I thought the only other options were sweet and/or fruity flavors, which I really didn't like and still don't. There are endless options when...

    What's Your Favorite "Tobacco" Flavor And Why?

    Welcome to the wide world of vaping, prepare to be overwhelmed! :p I like tobacco juices too, but they're definitely very hit or miss! I don't know why, but it seems like they can go wrong easily. There are a lot of yuck ones out there! My personal favorite tobacco flavor, and the first one I...

    Who makes this juice?

    A vape shop that doesn't know where their juice comes from? That sounds ... strange. Kinda shady. Don't know that I'd go back there if I were you!

    NicQuid from Altsmoke - YUCK!

    No, I know they're not affiliated with Altsmoke, I just threw that in there because that's where I bought it. At first glance, I thought you were saying 7.5 volts and I was like WHOA! Haha, then I realized you were saying watts. I guess I'm at about 9 watts, at 3.8 volts with a coil that's...
