I am going to be buying a VV/VW mod/apv soon. I will be going 18650. This will be my "at home" device... the one I am proud to look at, excited to vape on, and want the best performance from. My Vision Spinner 1300mAh and Vision Nova's will be following me to work as they are working very well for that. With that said, I am VERY pleased with Vision brand products, so of course I searched for a Vision VV device. This is the device I found. The price is good I think. Other than this device, what would have these features in this price range? I want to make sure I look at everything before I make a purchase. I am also going to be diving into rebuildable atomizers (genesis) style and silica wick style.

I like the look of this device... chrome, simple and clean. Not sure I want or need a ProVari or even an eVic. So, that's it... What do you all think? If you have links or pics of your suggestions, please post them. Thanks everyone.

That is called a VAMO. Its a great device. Its a very long device in 18650 mode.
It is variable voltage and variable wattage and it produces a great vapor. Good device.
It is too long for me, but I am a very short stature guy. I would feel like I was vaping from a baton.

I have provari + evic for my vv devices. Both suit me well. The Vamo would probably impress you a lot.
Especially if you've only been using egos thus far. You'll probably enjoy it very much.
If you want your vamo to be shorter, it has an 18350 tube option. Which is great... If thats what you need.
To me, its way too long in its 18350 mode to sacrifice the battery life.

Other than that... Build quality is not bad. What you would expect from a china made device.
I believe there are stainless steel versions of the vamo (they will not say chrome or black chrome in descript)
I would recommend you find a stainless steel version personally. Resistant to drops, which, can happen.

I would say the VAMO is as good as it gets in its price range (40-50USD). If you go up to 50-100 then there are lots more options. If you go above that then things change some more.

What do you mean "there are lots more options"? Reading over the specs on the VAMO, it seems like it does everything say a "ProVari" does... just in a slightly different way. What other option should I look for?

I don't think he meant options as in features, the Vamo pretty much has it all in that regard unless you want to go to something like the Evic that can use computer software to set it up but that really doesn't effect operation.

IMO the Vamo is the way to go in that price range, I would however look for the stainless version as the finish seems to wear better. The gun metal finish doesn't wear well at all and starts fading and shows scratches easily, both it and the chrome version are finger print magnets but that doesn't effect operation. You an pick up a stainless version around the same price as the one you linked or less if you want to wait for China shipping.
