The fasttech order shows a wall adaptor. This is what it said it comes with:

1*Electronic Cigarette Battery, 1*Battery Charger, 1*Charger Cable, 2*18650 batteries

Do I need something else to charge it??

No the Vamo kit is complete. If also ordering the smaller batteries Vapor Joes - Daily Vaping Deals: LOWER: Smoktech Winder VV Ego 900mAh - $16.14 for out and about (cuz the Vamo is so large) you would need a diff charger.
For the Vamo all you need now is juice and juice delivery devices (holds and vaporizes the juice)- ProTank, Vivi Nova, etc.
Sorry about the confusion.
For now let's just focus on the extra stuff you need for the Vamo- containers that hold and vaporize the juice:
$10.28 Kanger Protank Clearomizer with Pyrex Glass Tank (2.5mL) - silver / 2.4
or
Mini Vision Vivi Nova Tank System 2.0ml
or
Vision Vivi Nova Tank System 3.5ml

OK Im about to order the Winder eGo and a 510 USB charger because it doesn't come with one.....Now are the threads the same on the eGo and the Vamo so I can use the same clearo or atty (ill prob get a slim tank for the eGo anyway tho)? The Smoktech site doesn't say.....and finally clearomizer or atomizer??? I kinda know the difference but not totally. I might get one of each...

MY HEAD IS SPINNING....I need a drink! Wait! Im at work....Dam

In regards to juice here's my experience:
Best to buy samples to find your likes and dislikes. When I first began vaping I bought 30 wide ranging samples. Out of those 30 I liked 10. Immediately ordered another 20 and out of those I liked 10…so out 50 different flavors I enjoyed 20. Months later I tried those 30 samples that I disliked and enjoyed all but one. Whether it was because my tastes had changed or they needed steeping I don’t know. Realize also "same name" juices will vary greatly in taste from vendor to vendor as they all have diff recipes and order ingredients from diff Suppliers.
In regards to testing new juices you may want to purchase a 510 threaded atomizer- very easy to clean if the juice is "yucky"...much easier than cleaning a tank.
Atomizer (Atty)- an element/ coil in a metal tube on to which 3-4 drops of juice is dripped- usually used for testing new juices because attys are easy to clean. There are some diehard Atty users because it’s the best vape possible but very time consuming.
Seeing as you have a B&M nearby might be a good idea to take your PV there and test some juices.

I'm very impressed. Yes both the Vamo and Winder have 510 and eGo threading.

An atomizer is an element in a metal tube- drip 2-3 drops on it and vape.
Clearomizer (includes the Stardust and the Vivi Nova)- a plastic or metal tank with a replaceable head which contains a wick and element. Contains NO stuffing. The rebuildable clearos come with heads (coil+ wick) that can be cheaply ($2.00) and easily (10 secs) replaced. When the head burns out simply unscrew the old head out and screw in new head- takes 10 secs. My Vivi Nova heads are lasting about 10+ weeks BUT I wash the heads every few days. I've found the Vivi Nova to give the best draw.

The Kanger ProTank and the Mini Vivi Nova both come with drip tips. All you need is a plain atomizer. The attys you're referring to are the heads (contains wick+ element). The Vendor that sells the Winder doesn't have attys. Perhaps your local Vendor would have some- just plain 510 atomizer. With the atomizer you would need a drip tip. It looks like this with no stuffing:

VERY, VERY well done. While it may seem confusing right now I can almost guarantee when you have everything in hand it will make sense. I have faith in you.

Yes and you have to pat yourself on the back. I do :thumbs: If these types of PVs were around when I began vaping your choices would've been exactly what I would've purchased. And can't complain about the prices...more loot for juice :D
And now the wait begins. Shipping from FT is quick cuz it goes through the less busier Hong Kong terminal. My 4 orders took: 11 days, 9 days, 8 days and 8 days.
Best of Luck...don't forget that drink when you get home...you deserve it :D

Okay, now you're making me miss Lafayette!

I was in New Orleans for THAT and got driven back to Texas... sigh. Would much rather have ended up in Lafayette. Love that town!

Also... Laissez les bons temps rouler!

A little late to this party, but I thought I'd toss these out there...

1) Watch a bunch of YouTube videos...
PBusardo's Vaping Reviews - YouTube
Todd ecigreviews - YouTube
GrimmGreen - YouTube
David Solomon - YouTube
E-Cig-Reviews.com - YouTube
JC WEST - YouTube
Duane Greene - YouTube
These guys will cover the spectrum from high end mechanical & regulated mods to egos & cig-a-likes

Watch this one FIRST! An Introduction to Electronic Cigarettes - YouTube

2) Look for product reviews...
Google whatever item you're interested in. Be sure to stick ecig or mod in the search string to eliminate a lot of the unrelated stuff. Be sure to read a BUNCH of them, because some reviews are products being pimped by people with a vested interest in the product's sale.

3) Ask LOTS of questions in the various forums. Aside from the occasional snarky comment from the few a-holes that reside on every board, you'll get lots of good commentary on devices from firsthand experience.

I see you're in Laffy, I'm in New Iberia. I hope you made it to Vapor Gras in NOLA on the 20th. A good time was had by all.

Any questions about, or if you need clarification on, something, feel free to PM me. :)
