Vamo disappointment

[quickload187]

I called a couple people trolls, not too sorry about it, but I'll try to rise above other people's ignorance and what seems like flaming. Hard to do when they do it on your home turf, but I hope OP can figure it out and learn how to get a great vape like a lot of us have.

Threads that start with dissatisfaction titles about a product usually draw people who like the product and want to see what the complaints are about. It then turns into an "is/is not" battle.

You either like or you don't. Productive discussion can be good if it's comprehensive and helpful. Lots of problems turn out to be fixable when the limitations are understood. Most products hit the market with early revisions and problems that are fixed later on in the product cycle. That's why ECF is such a valuable resource. You find out what works and when to buy based on the evolution of hardware.

Ok, We have all voiced our thoughts on proper communication, the OP was frustrated and vented poorly. Moving past that, if he knew what we do he wouldn't have posted in the way he did. I see him as lashing out inappropriately, but in genuine need of wisdom.

Setting aside egos and emotions, have we addressed a solution to your problem? Have you tried a different carto (or what ever you use)?
What is the resistance that you are using?
Do you want help figuring out the issue or have you decided it is not worth your time?

I believe it's been posted several times that the possible culprit is his/her delivery device, and not the Vamo. I haven't seen the OP make any replies as to what he is using. Maybe we scarred him off, I don't know. I can set voltage to say 4.0 v on a eGo Twist and get the same vapor as I can with a Evic at 4.0 v. Most of us already know that. The only other solution is he actually has a defective Vamo.

I fell bad about using the "T" word...
I'll go sit in the corner and make clouds of vapor with my Vamo and T3

If vapor production is your goal, I think your looking at it the wrong way. Buying a vamo wont bring you that, the tank/carto/rba you attach to the vamo is what will give you your vapor production. Also 100%vg or high vg % juice as well. gluck man

There is a difference in the way a Provari and a Vamo fire the atomizer. I have both. I would have been happy with the Vamo had it not been my second one and started giving me flaky problems. (pushing the button 3-5 times to get it to fire) I did a comparison on an Oscope of the two.

There is the comparison thread.

The Provari produces a smoother vape. Had I not noticed this I would not have done the comparison. I have no vapor production problems with the Vamo. Its just cheaply made with quality control issues and short longevity.

This has been asked already, and apart form listing some attachments and saying he expected it to perform better than the twist, no further info has been given. There hasn't been a lack of help offered either here or in the other thread where OP requested ideas for a pv purchase.
Considering he named about three different attachments, the answer could be as simple as turning up the watts. I assisted some-one yesterday by PM who had just that problem - being a new vaper he was not familiar with his equipment. He asked for help because he didn't understand what was happening. That's all it takes.

Ok. Speaking for myself, apology accepted. And congrats on getting the AGA-T working. I know how fiddly those can be. Great when they work though. The clearos probably need a clean if you can. Some people have success with cleaning them - I've always found them difficult once they went gunky. Except vivi nova tanks which I clean and dryburn all the time.

If you get the carto tank worked out you may find 8-9 watts a good spot. Depending on the juice. And if you haven't found it there is a forum for tanks where people troubleshoot the kind of issue you've had, here:
Tanks

People here may be able to help too. I just talked to some-one yesterday who got a carto tank going on his Vamo and with everything working he said it was awesome. Hopefully you can experience that too.

I use a Tripple V carto tank on my Vamo all the time. It has a 3ohm Boge in it. It works very well. One of my favorites.

Ditto for me excalibrate! Glad to hear you are willing to listen to some of the advice here. I'm sure that with a little work and understanding, youllatthe very least find the Vamo to be a pretty decent device.

I am glad that you are at a point in the game where we can be of help to you. Rough start behind us, I have hopes for your success with both the vamo and the AGA-T. The AGA-T can be challenging at first but the tools to conquer it are here.

I have become quite an iclear fanboy over the past week after recieving an iclear 16 for my Vamo. I understand your frustration, when I first got my vamo I didn't have a delivery system I liked and was kind of disappointed myself.

I highly suggest iclear 16 or 30 for your vamo for when you don't feel like messing with the aga T. They work awesome, dual coil, and the 16 doesn't need an adapter like most replacable core clearomizers on the vamo. Outperforming my ego passthrough easily now. If I could change one thing about them it would be that they unscrew at the bottom to change the core instead of the top like some of the CE5s I have, have to be careful on the vamo with it because the grips are down in the well. Other than that, I can't say enough good things about them.

 

[Clearo-Mizer]

Ditto to all the other posts ...no worries bro ..I also love my i30...it like a dual coil vv nova...works and looks excellent atop the vamo

 

[donesmokin]

Frustration reared its ugly head? Been there, done that many times...LOL! Keep at it and use the resources here on ECF.

Gotta love a happy ending!

 

[Vaptor]

Ehm.....Vamo, Provary or what ever doesn't make the vapor. Device you stick on it makes the vapor. You can get HUGE amount of vapor out of tiny 3.2V battery if you use the right atty.

i received my vamo the other day...i was almost better off with my ego twist..it does not produce any more vapor ,which is what i wanted ..what a burn ,,i waited 24 days for this??i guess now i will save up for a provari..i hope it is better than this piece of crap..total waste of money..thank you to all the people who seem to like this thing ..i will not listen to you again..who has the VAMO ,,AND THE PROVARI??..please give me a run down on the two side by side..does the provari produce more vapor??i hope so

What are you using for attys? Thats where the vapor is produced........ How about an HH357...that will kick it up.....
