So I've only had my Vamo for a little less than a week, and I absolutely love it. I use it so much, I thought it would be good to have some back up batteries, so I ordered 2 2600mah 18650 batts that are due to arrive in the next day or two. The kit I started with came with 2 18350 batts, and I assumed (apparently incorrectly) that the 18650s would be the same size. But now that I'm looking at my manual, it shows the configuration with 2 18650s as even bigger than the full size I have.

Are there extensions I can buy so I can use 2 18650 batts at the same time? I haven't seen anything like this available from any of the vendors I use regularly. Furthermore, is there any real benefit to using 2 18650s at once? Thanks in advance for your patience and your help.

Please Use only ONE 18650 battery in you Vamo. As mentioned in the post above.

To answer your question about the benefits of using two 18650's......There is no benefit. You're gonna break your ecig. And besides that, it won't fit.

Using ONE fully charged 18650 the voltage in your Vamo should read 4.2 and recharge and/or replace the battery when the voltage get's down to 3.3 But I like to replace my battery when it's around 3.4, 3.5 But the Vamo has safety built in so it shouldn't let you drain the battery all the way. It should stop working at around 3.3 volts.

Using one battery is different than using two so the voltage is going to read differently.

What kind of chemistry 18650 batteries did you buy? Hopefully they are IMR.
