lol correct your are. I need to memorize those tables :facepalm: BTW how much more was V2 than V1?

I've got on of each. I think the V2 was priced the same as the V1. Never bothered to send the V1 back for an upgrade. I think they're charge $25 to get the V2 board.

I have RDAs, but have not squonked yet. Those Reo guys swear by them. I get the fresh juice thing, SS and ceramic can bake your juice in the tank from heat sink. Maybe next on the list..... are you going down that road?

going to give it a go for sure. never liked dripping at all, but maybe something like the reo would be kind of cool. was going to set-up the agi as a dripper the other day, I even got some xc 116 but then realized that I drilled out the wick hole to 1/8, which was a threaded hole in which you have to plug up when using as a dripper, so much for that. anyways shopping for a good rda at the moment. doubt that it will ever replace my gennys w/ ceramic but its something new and will be able to use some of those broken fc's. I did try using some of that xc stuff, what a pita.

I've been using did clones with ceramic wicks for some time now and I always had to tilt my PV to get a good vape. I recently got an AGA-t and I no longer have to tilt. It works great without any tilting at all. Whats up with that???

Same size wick hole? Same size wick?

never liked the did clones personally, always had wicking issues. i tossed it a few days later, maybe if i gave it more time it could of been a good device but being that i had a read did i just thought it was a piece of shtt. i do believe the aga is a better device. it could be a lot of different reasons that one works better then another, i think the airflow in the aga is just better.

AGA-W. same as AGI, but dripper only. Bit bigger then the igo-l. I have a few fasttech drippers, so impressed with the 2 i got. Have 4 more coming for friends, coworkers n me. https://www.fasttech.com/products/1363601

thanks for that crss, will look into the fastech & agw. the fasttech looks pretty nice for the price

Funny how one man's trash is another's treasure. I have 4 of the DID clones and really like them. They're small, light weight, and have a screw on top. They're my favorite out-and-about genny. I like my AGA's too but they are much heavier.

I recently got a Vamo and i like it better than my Provari. It's built really strong too. I did not think it was going to be this nice for only 33 bucks.

+1 on the Vamo....one of the best bangs-for-the-buck in the Vaping World at the moment. I have two of them, and they are my workhorses. Tough little suckers to boot. Can't break them (though I've sure tried) ... they just flat work, and keep working.

Yepper! Mine even took a quick swim in a stream once when I was fishing and survived. My one dislike is how easy it is to inadvertently change the VV/VW setting. Can tell ya how many times I've taken it out of my pocket and had to reset it. Wished there was a way to 'lock' the setting.

Agreed, word for word. I have 2 of the Vamo V2, no problems so far. But I did have to fix one for a friend...the center pin insulators sometimes fail. I replaced it, and it works good as new again.

Yep...that's their one weak spot, but the problem is usually caused by attys with a long positive pin & people over-tightening them on the Vamo. If you adjust the center pins on your attys so they are just flush, or only protrude by less than 1mm or so, you will never have that issue.

The did clone had better air flow than my AGA. I like the screw on caps too. The air hole is on the opposite side of the wick and it works great. That puzzles me.

I thought you said you didn't have to tilt with the aga compared to the did clone? if so the wicking capabilities of the aga is better if all things being equal, this to me sounds like it is better, better wicking better flavor and more vapor.
