Ever heard Phil Busardo talking about "smoktek, not smoktech" ?
Super different. Though super similar.

As for fasttech vamos, vamo this vamo that rip off whatever, the only product that I truly believe fasttech is good for is the K100 and the revisions of such. Kamry really does sell legit stuff on Fasttech. Other vendors apparently have issues with them undercutting MSRP's and I have heard stories of less than good things coming from fasttech in the past. MVP's in particular.

Several people I know who have ordered vamo's from fasttech have had the protective plastic over the screen fall out, or crack or break or whatever, battery and connector issues, and some with different sized top "rings". Some V2's that will or will not take T3's depending on the model.. who knows.

I bought my vamo from a reputable vendor here in Canada. The girlfriend did the same. They're great little toss around workhorses and the fact that I paid near 70 bucks for a real kit with real batteries and nitecore chargers, does not upset me.

wont buy from anyone over seas for that reason. i am impatient when it comes to getting my stuff. 3 weeks i would have a meltdown. more then happy to support usa vendors and pay the extra $20 and know its coming within 2-4 days (usually). what i dont understand is, vamos were a dime a dozen when they came out like a year ago lol. bought mine here in the usa (forgot the site) for $36. everyone was having a massive sale when they came out. still works perfectly. however i do prefer my svd over the vamo.

Bought my Vamo from fasttech. I love it and I like their prices... Say what you will. It's just vaping. I did the research, my Vamo kit was $53.33, free shipping, Panasonic cgr18650x2, and Nitecore i2 charger... Add all that up separately and you'd be well over $75 from a spot here in the good ole US of A. 9 days shipping from China is worth the $22 and change I saved. Put the time in on shoppin around and save your money. Don't buy on a whim. No buyers remorse here. I also bought The Natural from smoktek, not smoketech. I love those guys too. They have daily and hourly specials.. To the op get yourself a few more posts under your belt and get verified and buy from the classifieds sections here. :)
