Read these instructions before operating your Vamo
What is the Vamo?
The Vamo is an electronic cigarette, with advanced functions. It allows for the use of multiple battery configurations, and can be adjusted in size. It is an all metal construction, with a bright LCD display. The Vamo allows its voltage, or its power level output to be adjusted. It will also accept most atomizers fitted with a 510 and/or eGo threading.

Voltage vs. Wattage:
Electronic Cigarettes create vapor by heating a juice. The heat is created with a resistance wire. The amount of voltage being applied to the wire, and the amount of resistance of the wire, are what decide the amount of heat used to produce vapor.
When setting the unit to voltage adjustment, you start at the lowest voltage setting, and increase until you reach the desired amount of heat. Different atomizers may require different voltages, due to their level of resistance. Different atomizers may be preferred at different heat levels.
When setting the unit to wattage adjustment, you start at the lowest wattage setting, and increase until you reach the desired amount of heat. The unit will automatically adjust the voltage to reach the power level you set. atomizer may be preferred at different power levels.
VAVG vs VRMS:
When activating an atomizers attached to your device, voltage is sent to the atomizers. Higher currents than set are pulsed to the device during this process. The duration of these pulses, and the amount of rest in-between, are how the unit matches the desired setting. There are two ways of reaching the setting. VAVG, is the average time of pulsing and rest. VRMS is a calculation which is understood to be a more accurate representation of how a continual voltage would work with an Electronic Cigarette. VAVG may also damage your atomizer. While VRMS is the recommended setting, VAVG is the default. Please use caution when using the VAVG setting.
Getting Started: Caution:
While the device will allow for multiple batteries to be used at one time, we strongly discourage this. If a battery failure were to occur, this would increase the danger associate with battery failure.
Due to the thin insulation in the battery compartment, we recommend only using batteries with a button top. If your buttery has a larger, defined protrusion at its positive (+) end, you will likely have a button top battery. If your battery has a slight, flat protrusion at its positive (+) end, you have a flat top battery. If you are unsure, please contact your battery supplier.
Battery Configurations:
The Vamo comes with an 18650 battery extension tube. This tube is shipped attached to the Vamo unit. The tube extends the size of the Vamo unit, and is easily removed by turning it counter-clockwise until it releases from the unit.
Remove this tube if you would like to use a single 18350 battery in your Vamo. Attach the tube for use with 18650 batteries. Note: Most 18650 batteries will last double, or longer, than an 18350 battery.
Inserting the batteries:
Turn the Vamo upside-down, and remove the battery cover. Insert the with battery's positive (+) side being inserted into the tube. Then replace the battery cover.
Usage:
Turning On/Off:
To turn on the Vamo, quickly press the large Activation Button 5 times. Repeat this to turn it off.
Setting Voltage or Wattage:
Press both the small Adjustment Buttons, just below the display, and hold for 3 seconds. The right-most side of the display will either have a W, for wattage, or V for voltage.
Adjusting the Voltage or Wattage:
Use the small Adjustment Buttons below the LCD display to adjust your voltage or wattage. Use the left button to decrease, and the right button to increase. Voltage adjusts between 3 to 6 volts, in .1 increments. Wattage adjusts between 3 and 15 watts, in .5 increments. If you reach the highest, or lowest setting, and press again, the setting will go to the lowest, or highest setting, respectively.
Adjusting VAVG or VRMS:
Pressing and holding either small Adjustment Button for 10 seconds will switch the device between NO1 (VAVG) and NO2 (VRMS).
Battery Remaining:
Press and hold the right small Adjustment Button for 2 seconds, and the LCD display will output the remaining voltage of the battery.
Ohm Check:
Press and hold the left small Adjustment Button for 2 second, and the LCD will display the ohms of resistance, of any attached atomizer. If the display reads 99, the device isn't able to read that there is an attached atomizer.
Important:
Product Notes:
The device will stop activation after 10 seconds of continual usage.
The device will not allow atomizers under 1.3 ohms to be used. The display will read LO Ω if one is detected. When the battery has below 3.2 volts remaining, the device will not activate. The display will read LO v.
If the atomizer used is shorting, the device will not activate. The display will read LO v.
The unit is protected if the battery is inserted backwards.
