I believe my VAMO has ss threads. I haven't used it in a very long time. But it's old and I got it from Tropical Vapors. Like lots of stuff these days, a name doesn't mean much. A VAMO has been copied by a million different places these days.

FYI-my sister's SVD from fasttech still has not shipped. Ordered last Sunday. Doesn't show backorder on the site, but does on my order when I checked it.
Slowtech drives me crazy! I wouldn't order a chia pet from them. Just me.
I cancelled the amazon order for her charger (and a couple non-vape items) also. If they can't ship out in less than a week, forget it.
Agree. That's crazy. You can buy a Porsche in less than a week. A flimsy battery charger? I don't think so.
It's mostly KSD these days and I'm seeing the same complaint about their E-Huge , they built the mod like a tank and topped it off with soft threads , go figger .
Get on their case Bridget , open a ticket and bug the crap out of'em .
I have no idea what version VAMO they're up to these days. I think mine was a V2. It's old and I cannot speak to the newer versions one iota.
I googled amazon shipping too slow (or something like that) and there's a whole lotta complaints.. So I'll just take my business elsewhere.
Vamo V3, - V5 have the plated brass tops... not sure about V1 and V2. There is a V5 in the B&M and its SS body but brass threads
Yup , it's the weekend but if you don't hear from them by tomorrow I'd be a bit nastier when you do contact them .
you NEED a lanyard/neckstrap...
ayup, ayup, yup, I do.
I have one that holds a ProVari, but that is one dangerous contraption when the boat starts a rockin'!
An Idea!! get some of that pipe insulation stuff ( the black foam tube) for 3/4" pipe, attach lanyard, Vape safe!!
At one time, I used a piece of a swimming noodle in the cup holder in my car. For the boat, I think I'll get another non roly-poly mod.
have you looked into the ELVT thingie.. silicone coated water "proof"...
Okayyy... been using the Hades by hCigar for a couple of days now...
Initial view... shiny and smooth, threads are nice. The spring that is installed is quite stiff... you need a strong finger to activate it. What is nice tho is the mod comes with a magnet set to replace the spring, suggest using the magnets, they are still a bit stiff due to the shear size ( dia.) of the magnets..
Since the finish is so smooth, damp palms make gripping it a challenge when trying to activate the switch.
The push button needed some "adjustment" to the plunger part. It seems that during the machining process, they cut the top of the switch flat and sharp to the cylinder sides. The adjustment made was a rounding of the sharp edge, The interior of the switch housing ( female part) isnt finished as smooth as it should be, causes a gritty push, rounding the sharp edge of the button reduced the "snag a bility" quite a bit... to finish off the smoothness a copper based never seeze with dry graphite paste was inserted into the switch base to aide in the smoothness factor. A couple of days use has "polished" the interior of the switch housing and no longer is crunchy/grabby.

Yea, I was looking into that a while ago. I remember not liking something about it, though I don't recall what it was. Then p.opus posted http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...-not-close-being-waterproof-mod-part-1-a.html
Funny thread, but it convinced me not to get one.
Ordered my sister's charger from an ebay seller this morning. Got shipping notification this evening. It's coming from Austin TX so hopefully it will be here Wednesday or so.
ETA: still no word from slowtech on the SVD.
