Got mine today. The chrome one is fine and finishes match on it. The stainless steel one has the battery tube in chrome instead of ss. Oh well. It's not that noticeable.

Last night I ordered the v8 Gripper from Vaporbreak for 21 bucks shipped, lol. Love their prices and i'm in no hurry so if it takes a month from China so be it. If i didnt already have 2 Vamos, i would have grabbed another. The Vamo is 39 for body only.
I've been using a Ovale v8 Mod for about 9 months and I still like it. I have the first version which has some issues, but it has still worked well for me. Its a cool looking little mod. Not so good for large tanks cause it will tip over. They are great if you keep from dropping them too much. I do like my new Vamo's though.
I just got my chrome Vamo today. I would have had it two days ago if I'd been home to sign for the package. I ordered on April 6.
No tracking updates between China and my local post office.
Love it so far. I see VB stocks the Lava Tube now, so I'm tempted to try one of those next. Unless I decide to just get a 2nd Vamo for backup instead.
I got my batteries from FastTech, the Pany CGR18650CH.

I wouldn't bother with a lava tube, you would be going backwards getting one of them.
I'd get a second vamo or something else, but not a lava tube, you wouldn't be happy with one, I had one for about 2 weeks and was nearly ready to give up as it really wasn't good at all, till I got my Vamo then things starting being great
Second this. There's no greater feeling than holding two Vamos aloft in each hand and screaming to the heavens that analogs can suck it. Feels good, man.
I ordered two Vamo Kits on April 11, tracking says they are out for delivery today, 4/22 in Florida. Can't wait to try them out, eleven days is not that bad for delivery time from China.
Nice find...bookmarked for future use!!
My Vamo from Vapor Break had the 0.0 ohm reading and didn't work. I tried the #60 o-rings for the 510 connector pin, but they weren't good enough and only worked part of the time. Now I have Avid Vapors insulators and put one in. Seems to be working better now. These insulators fit inside over the edge of the hole so the pin won't touch and short again.

That's about what mine took and am hoping the order for the other 2 and the separate order for the 3 RBAs get here in comparable time. Hadn't planned on checking the status for a couple more days, but...
Mine arrived 10 days after I ordered it, but it took me four days to get it from my local P.O. I wasn't there to sign for mine, either, and they wouldn't leave it even after I signed the delivery notice and left it on the mailbox. I had to go to the local branch, where it took visits to two different people before they finally found it.
The box is slightly smashed, but the Vamo inside looks good. No scratches, fingerprints and the buttons look good. Of course, I had to run off to work, so I haven't fired it up yet. (This will be my backup Vamo.)

We got ours and OMG! It's incredible! All my flavors have come to life! My eVods are eMaxed, my Protanks are awesome and my stardusts are so much better!
Mine came as kits with trustfire batteries, out of the box ready to go, going to run them down before recharging.
I wouldn't hesitate to order from vaporbreak, they did right by me, no problems, just great vapor an flavor!
What am I going to do with all my other batteries? HaHa

Just an update on my situation...
I bought four Vamo's from vaporbreak.com. Two were defective. I submitted a ticket on the website. It took forever for them to respond. They asked for video of one unit and a picture of the other. I (stupidly) took the time to make a video and take a picture. I emailed both to the oceanheart1988 email address along with my order number, just as requested. That was 13 days ago. I have not received an update or reply of any kind. I'll post again if anything happens, which I doubt.

After I made that last post, I sent VB an email asking what was up. They replied 25 minutes later. Why did my previous email go unanswered for 13 days? Here is what the latest email said:
This sounds like something they send out to anyone who reports "problems" with their vamo order. It doesn't address the issues with my defective units and there is no mention of the refund/replacement that was promised if I sent a video and pictures.
I wouldn't have been too upset about losing the $60 if they had said "tough luck" in the beginning. Now that I've taken all of this extra time to make a video and take pictures, it's a different story. I filed a Paypal dispute immediately and I encourage anyone else with problems to do the same. They will only waste your time until the Paypal dispute window closes.
DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!
Wow. Vaporbreak denied my Paypal claim within the time it took me to write that last post. It takes weeks for them to respond when you contact them about order problems but they respond to Paypal claims in under 5 minutes. This place does not deserve to be in business.
That sucks, man. Sorry they didn't get back to you. I've been one of the lucky ones, I guess. Ordered two Vamos and various other bits and pieces and both orders arrived just fine. Already have another one in for a Did clone so I can experiment with RBAs without destroying my bank account. Wish you had gotten the same experience as me.
Good luck to you on getting restitution. If you find anybody better, be sure to let us know.
And when they did get back to me they totally ignored one of the bad units (cross threaded bottom cap) and give me tips on how to operate the other bad one. Uh...hello! I ordered four of these and have been using the working ones for a month. I know how to operate them.
Their latest story is that I am pressing multiple buttons in the video and that's why it's reading "no connection."
DiscountVapers is an outstanding company. I wish I would have ordered there.
Trying to understand the tracking process with vaporbreak coming from China, it's driving me nuts I tell ya!
I went for China post, cheapest shipping.
Has been saying this since Monday on USPS tracking site: Origin Post is Preparing Shipment. We have received notice that the originating post is preparing to dispatch this mail piece.

It's normal that no one knows how to interpret this? Or normal as in: Be patient, cross your fingers, and hope it gets here soon because you won't be able to know where it is? Sorry, first time ordering from China and I'm excitedUnfortunately, COMPLETELY NORMAL.
