I bought a sigelei z max for less than 80 bucks. I just think the vamo is hideous or I would have picked it up.

I would skip the kits, especially from exhalevapors, it seems like the pack ins would be crap.

The forty percent seems great except they are charging 20 bucks for the unprotected Samsung ICR 2600mah that gets packed in with the eVic, I haven't seen it above 12 bucks (which is still overpriced) anywhere else. They are charging 23 bucks for a Trustifire TR-001 which is a 12 dollar item everywhere else. It's also an extra 11 bucks for a stainless vamo.

Something ain't right. Maybe get your vamo their and everything else from somewhere else.

You can go to smoktek and get a stainless vamo, trustfire and a quality (panasonic or efest) battery for 80 dollars.

Best value for a box mod - including batteries and a charger - in that price range? My vote would be a VariCool: SmokBox Custom Mods - 3.7v, 5v, Linear and Switching Variable Voltage

This isn't a cheap box mod. High efficiency regulator, long battery run times, solid build, can actually run all the way up to 6 volts - if you ever desire to actually go there. You won't outgrow it.

Hi Darkhood. For what it is worth, I am going to agree with Rickajho. I Know without question that the evercool mods are one of the most reliable vape machines available without question. I own a few twists, both long and short lavatube and many other pieces of gear in addition to four evercool mods that I built. My wife is the pickiest vaper you could possibly ever meet. She will only vape her 14500 evercool boxmod. The evercool mod vapes better for me at any voltage when compared to the same voltage on any other device and with anything attached to it. I built one mod for myself and immediately it was relinquished from my personal use. I could easily pick up a vamo for the cost of the parts in my evercool mods. I would readily spend the time and money to opt to build the evercool, even to this day. Just my two pennies.... Good Luck. Happy Vaping.

is that site for real? Found a one post for review...that's it...not convinced...
Darkhood,
I ordered from him 2 days ago. I first called Abe with some questions and he was extremely nice and helpful.

According to USPS my package left my local post office this am for delivery. If there are any problems I will post it. Shipping times obviously will not be a problem.
 
How much better is the vamo then a twist? Looking into getting one & have been using the twist.. What are the + about the vamo that the twist does not have?

Variable wattage, which is always nice but not necessary. The Vamo will display your battery voltage so you can get an idea of how much life is left in it (Li-ion and LiPo voltage being kind of flat, this is tough, but at least you can tell if you're running close to 3.2 volts and shut off).

You can test the ohms resistance of your current device. And the battery can be changed and charged outside the unit so, with two batteries, you should never be down. Since the battery is removable, a dead battery also doesn't mean a dead device. Just toss the old batt and put in a new one.

So can anyone tell me, is this a Vamo - eGo Bamboo APV V2 (Stainless Body) [D-B4 APV Stainless] - $43.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

Looks like the same thing and I read somewhere that a lot of suppliers get their stuff from healthcabin...this would be the same cost as buying a vamo from that guy w/ the 40% of coupon so whoever said he's selling them at cost to get business is probably right. Just want confirmation if possible that is in fact the same thing as a Vamo (though I'm 99% sure it is). Thx

Update - I've decided not to mess around and am just gonna save up and get a Provari. My spinner is completely fine for now so I'm good waiting another few weeks to have enough spare cash to just get the best there is. I figure I'll eventually get one anyway so why not skip the intermediate stuff and just get the best when I can afford it.

Done deal, thx for everyone's input, much appreciated.

Awesome, thanks for the info...
