I have been making my atomizer coils in the 1.8 to 3 Ohm range. So they should be OK.

Hi Micgyver,
While you wait - there's a Vamo V2 manual here:
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/vamo/359600-vamo-vv-vw-v2-user-manual-download.html
Might be of some use.
I read something a while back that said if you use higher resistance coils and a higher voltage then it will take less current and therefor extend your battery life. Sounds plausible to me since batteries are rated in MAH. Any observations about this?

Thank you so much for that link kiwivape I'll definitely check it out.
BTW... lovin your blog!

Awesome. Thanks for all of the info, you guys. I'll be ordering a vamo Friday after next. Probably going to go with the V2, since the V3 is SUPER ugly. the only thing that I favor the v3 for is the ability to go with one battery instead of two, just to lessen the footprint of the device, but it's not that big of a deal.
Thanks again, everybody!

Make sure you use the Vamo V2 in RMS (N02) mode and adjust your power in watts. Second, the V2 can use one 18650, two 18350 or can be made smaller and use just one 18350.
AFAIK Higher res and higher volts will drain your batteries faster.
Yes, in theory this is true - and I think it holds true overall. We've seen some debates on it here though.
Its about the amps really.
Lets take a simple example - lets say we want to vape at 9 watts since we have a vw device that will adjust volts for us.
We put on low res carto - 1.7 ohms, and then more standard res carto at 3.0 ohms. Staying at 9 watts:
Here are the figures.
1. 1.7 ohms at 9 watts is using 3.9 volts. Amps = 2.3
2. 3.0 ohms at 9 watts is using 5.19 volts. Amps = 1.73
So you can see that at 8 watts the low res attachments is draining the battery more than the 3 ohm attachment. The 3 ohm attachment is using more volts - but creating less drain.
Low resistance cartomizers really came about so that people using ego batteries could get a warmer vape. With pvs that have batteries capable of more power LR isn't really necessary - you can use standard resistance attachments and use the power output for the vape you want.

Wattage is more a set and forget type of thing. Much less fiddling and math than with Variable Voltage. Both accomplish the same thing however, wattage just does so with less tinkering.
After spending a few hours (had nothing to do I enjoyed more) looking at the matter of less battery draw with higher resistance and voltage I eventually came across a post on ECF (sorry I cant remember who posted it) that said that the theory was good as to ohms law but anything you gain would be used up in the regulation of the device, otherwise you have perpetual motion in action. That sounds plausible also as it was explained.

There is no difference between a VV eGo and a Vamo.
However.
VW is useful if you mess around with lots of atomizers....and certain tanks/clearomisers do look much better!

I couldn't seem to edit my post so I am adding that the information is explained in Rader2146 blog if anyone wants to check it out. Many thanks to Rader2146 for his expertise on this .
I have a 1300 mah Spinner and a V2 Vamo, both work good for me.
If I switch toppers between the two and use the same voltage, I don't notice a difference, others say they do. I do agree with the points about battery life, battery cost, VW, amp limit. Both devices have their place in my vaping world.

The vw aspect of vaping is just easier, you don't have to spend as much time worrying about ohms and resistance. I consider vw set it and forget it. It just works on most of my juices and attys. After awhile you get used to what you like. Sometimes up .5 or lower .5 for a juice but that is about it. In the beginning most don't consider the benefits of rechargeable batteries but once you spend quite a bit of money on the latest and greatest you realize that maybe you are wasting money chasing the latest fad.
it's are so very subjective, just like juice, hard to take some ones review and apply it to yourself, but for the money it is hard to go wrong with a vamo, plus I don't mind taking my vamo to work, on the lake etc, opposed to the likes of a provari or an expensive mech.
Is this because of the assumed lifespan of those devices? In theory or in practice? I am wondering what expected lifes are on the various devices, I guess the ProVaris are supposed to last for years instead of months. Is that a fair assessment?
