Anyone selling the battery extension tube for Dual 18650's

[BrokenLung]

I have seen these offered in packages on websites but I was wondering if anyone knows of a website selling the battery tube extension by itself.

Thanks!

I am yet to find the extensions. I search regularly and still nothing.

After searching everywhere I could, this is the only place I could find it...looks to be chrome and the vendor is in Germany, I think...Vamo VV/VW Extension, chrome - CV-Tech e-smoking and more

These sure are a hard item to find...

Edited to add: If you check that site they also offer the extension in stainless and "gun", which I can only think means "gun metal" or actually black chrome...

I just sent a message to VB, waiting for their answer, I want the BIG WAND to take to VapeFest! They have been very helpful in my inquiries before...

the ego 18650 mod tubes fit, but you need a longer spring or longer than usual 18650's, or a spacer of some sort..it ends up being a tad long..they do thread perfectly though..

Well, I'll be damned...I tried it and it does fit. Not sure about trying to rig it with 2 18650's though....it sounds like it could get ugly....it it even safe to do?

well stacking is not as safe as single.. stacking with a spacer adds more chances of something going bad..as long as the spacer is properly done I don't see a problem with it..xtar charger spacer might do the trick..i've been stacking li-ions in flashlights for years (2x18650 and 3x18650) and never had any issues..common sense wins the battle lol

i haven't heard back from VB, could I get a link to the 18650 ego mod tubes and perhaps a proper spacer? I don't have problems stacking two 18650's with a good spacer my instruction manual came with a photo illustrating the two 18650 stacked mode, that makes it OK, right? I mean, evryone knows if theres a picture of it it's a good to go...

Is this still an open topic?
I´m stacking 2x 18650 in half a dozen Vamos V2 and V3 chrome and stainless for half a year now, never had any problems, I just follow a few basic rules.

Use batteries always in pairs, buy them as a pair, mark them as a pair, never split them, charge them together in the same charger, never use them for anything else.
If you use old batteries together with new ones or fully charged ones together with empty ones, you will FOR SURE run into problems.

I had some contact problems with flat top batteries, so I use these:
$15.99 Panasonic NCR18650B 18650 3.7V 3400mAh Rechargeable Li-ion Batteries (2-Pack) 2-pack - button top / 55mohm internal resistance at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Button top grants good contact, but makes them about 2mm longer, gets tight in the tube, you have to squeeze the bottom cap of the Vamo a bit to close it, it does fit but only just so.
(Protected batteries are another 2mm longer and do not fit into the tube)

The extensions are available all over the place:
evape.de Liquid Shop
Vamo Extension Tube
Vamo V2 extension, 4,90 €
even for the V3
Vamo V3 extension, 4,90 €

You need two of them to extend a Vamo to 2x 18650.
