Hello, I just want to check if I have understood the difference between twist and spinner on their vv function:
On a twist voltage can be modified gradually from 3.2 to 4.8v and each step you can go 0.2v up, it means you can get 3.2 3.4 3.6...till 4.8
On the other hand, on spinner, you can only get 3.3 3.8 4.3 and 4.8, no other option.

Is this right or not??

Well, those are the markings. You can get any voltage between the markings as well. The Spinner is way easier to read the markings for me, though my daughter reads the Twist like it was written on the blackboard or something. There are other slight differences including battery life, but they are very similar and both do an excellent job. Great for both a starting point, backup and "out and about" device. Many enjoy it as a primary device. I started there, still use it when out, and use it almost daily for one thing or another.

I agree.
Perfect balance of reliability, cost effectiveness and size for an out and about device.
Cheap enough that you are not heart broken if you break or lose one.
Dependable enough that you will not be without a vape.
Small enough that you can drop 2 or 3 in your shirt pocket to ensure you have a variety of flavours with you at all times.

I went from small 808 type batteries right to an iTaste MVP and a Tesla, but I got a chance to use a twist for a few days when I was setting up a kit for one of my co-workers... It's a great little battery! They are hard to read, however. From what I hear, the Spinners are just as good, and much easier to see what you're setting them at.

Can also adjust the Spinner in .1 increments the same as the Twist.
I own both and prefer the Spinner because:
- is 1 mm wider but shorter than the Twist.
- has a wider knurled voltage dial= easier to turn
- has visible voltage markings

I have both twists and spinners. They both perform well but I prefer the spinner. The 1300mAh is a little fatter but shorter than the 1100mAh twist. It fits better in my pocket and the extra 2 hrs lasts me from morning to bed time...

Edit. I put a little nail polish at voltage points I use a lot on my twists. Makes them a lot easier to find.

Seems I was wrong about spinner.
Found it on their chinese online shop for like 10euros each, going to get 2 or 3 to give it a try.
I like the size of these things, carring a vamo during smoking break is a little "high key"

You'll find most of us that own both the Twist and Spinner prefer the latter. Just be very careful about buying knockoffs. The Twist is by JoyeTech and the Spinner by Vision

I use my Vamo for at home and Spinners for out and about.
Best of Luck.

Thanks for the heads up. The one I found on the chinese site seems to be genuine and very cheap(98rmb = 16usd = 12eur) :)
