A year is a long time to be dealing with that frustration.. i say it so often.. but the evod is amazing.. it doesn't hold much juice but it's consistent.. i have burnt everything.. cartos.. atomizers.. kanger t2.. my first week i almost gave up and the vendor gave me an evod and that's all i use at work because i don't have to worry (even tho i bring a backup head just in case). I've heard great things about the protank but can't speak to it as i haven't tried it yet.. don't give up!!



I didn't even read any responses in this thread yet, before I offered my advice above. This post is practically giving the same device on the delivery systems I suggested.

Once again, go order 1 EVOD, and 1 Kanger Pro tank RIGHT NOW. You will thank me later :)

1 Evod runs about $6-8, and 1 Pro tank , with 1-2 replacement coils, runs about $18-20. Add 2 coils for the EVOD @ $1-2 each.....and your total will be: $26-32. Best $26-32 you'll ever spend on vaping :)

I have no advice here, I gave up on cartos in or out of tanks a long time ago, don't use too high of VG but I do use and LOVE a very dark coffee flavor. Lucky to get half a day out of them.

Not sure what's wrong but I hope you get a workable solution soon, a year is too long to struggle then just give up!

You need to treat yourself to Vamo from Fasttech for $27 and try the Kanger Tanks as folks have mentioned above. It will take your vaping experience to a whole new level.

How long have you had the Vamo. I got one to augment my Provari and to see what the vw was like. It vapes fine but the minus button began having problems within a week or two. Sometimes I have to click it 4 or 5 times to get it to respond.

Nope. I also have a Zmax and LT and the Vamo has a much better hit. The Vamo has a 5 amp limit, the Z has a 4 amp limit and the LT has a 2.5 amp limit. There is nothing even close to a Vamo in the vape experience. I have many, many friends that will tell you the same :) JMHO

O.P. stated chooses to set at 1.7 amps max.

I hope I'm not out of line here cause I'm a relatively new vaper and don't really know hardware at all. But, I am familiar with ECBlend juice. You don't say if you order it with sweetener, or extra sweetener, or if ECB automatically sweetens the blends you order. If any of the above, be aware that the sweetener they use is ethol maltol, and EM gunks up coils in nothing flat. I had that problem, and solved it by only using sucralose to sweeten my juice. Have not had a "gunking" problem since switching to sucralose.

Just a thought. Something to add to the equation...

Ecblend liquids ALWAYS caked up on me, i ditched them pretty quick...

This is interesting. Anyone else have this experience?

I <3 the Zmax. I want one to be the sister to my CVI. My life would then be complete. Unless Provari adds vw ... then I'll have to have one of those too. :D

I don't get the big deal with vw. I have the Provari and have had it for over a year and it still performs well. I got a Vamo just to try the vw but I still have to change the setting depending on what I'm using on top of it. Also my Vamo began experiencing problems with the minus button within 1 or 2 weeks. All in all the Vamo was a waste of my money and now pretty much sits on the shelf gathering dust. I'll use it again when my Provari has to go in for service which I know as inevitable as nothing mechanical lasts forever.

I tried vw on a friend's Vamo too and wasn't impressed. It was buggy and wouldn't hold settings during battery change. Then I fell in love with the look of the Anyvape CVI and got one for my birthday. Night and day difference with the vw. Love it! Much smoother for me and auto adjusts resistance. Just works out better for me. Others may not care.

Love the durability and craftsmanship of the Provari, just prefer vw devices for my usage. If they ever implement that, I'm sure it'll blow the rest of the vw devices out of the water. At that time, I'll own one in a heartbeat.

I have had my first one for a little more than 3 months now. I am not a HV vaper but, for some reason these vape better and give a more powerful consistant hit than any of my other mods. Someone mentioned to me that it might be the firmware. IDK I am a heavy vaper and not only have I not found anything that I like better than the Vamo, I have at least 10 friends that feel the same. I have not had any problems at all with my SS Vamo.

The LT is junk IMO with very little power. The Zmax has center post issues that have been reported by many plus, I despise using the same button to activate and change menu items.. IMO, the Vamo is the best bang for the buck.

The OP asked for help and opinions and that is just what I gave to him.
