best vamo v5 deal

Status
Not open for further replies.
I am looking to purchase two vamo v5 kits including in each 2 18650 batteries, one charger, and a kanger protank 2. A quick google search found nothing under $60 and fasttech has the tank and battery for $50 but I am unsure about batteries from them. Any website suggestions or anyone know somewhere to get the full kits for cheap?

I bought the Vamo V5 from fasttech, but the batteries & protank from US based sites. It will ship much faster without the batts. Right now fasttech is saying "5 days to ship" on the Vamo so it's going to take an additional 5 days before they will even ship. Can't beat the price but you can not be in a hurry. If you want it in less than 3 weeks (might come sooner or take longer) then check stateside. There are some pretty good deals on the Vamo's online.

I think the fasttech price for the kit isn't much less than buying them separately(at fasttech). I think it was $3 savings on the V3.
If you buy fasttech I'd get the batteries in the us. rtd vapor is recommended often. $20-$25 after shipping for a pair of quality 18650's
For batteries. You need 18650 IMR or hybrid batteries. Baditude has a good blog about them for more info http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blogs/baditude/4848-9-battery-basics-mods-imr-protected.html
The three most recommended batteries for a regulated mod:
AW IMR 18650 2000 mAh
Batteries : Panasonic Hybrid/IMR CGR18650CH
Batteries : Panasonic High Drain NCR18650PD Hybrid 2900mAh Flat Top


I ordered an SVD and the nitecore i2 charger from fasttech and plan on getting the panisonic 29000 mAh batteries from rtd

Efest work just fine...I have been rocking these in my Vamo V3 for a few months...its the "cheap" bulk batteries that are the ones to look out for...great for flashlights...not good for high drain mods!

I read a ton on batteries and I am currently running a sigelei zmax v2 with a couple 18650's. There is a store here llocally that sells efest 2200 mah for 7.99 a piece and a xtar for 10.99 so ill probably just pick that up
Oh yeah..if you can get them locally without a huge vendor markup...do it!
