Here's what I just did with my SS Vamo V2, since I absolutely could not stand the slipperiness any more. I used the fourth and fifth finger of a disposable glove. Makes all the difference in the world grip-wise. I have SS Vision Spinners too, but no such problem with them because of the smaller diameter and lower weight. I'm pretty sure the Spinners have a less polished, less slippery surface too.
After 48 hours the sleeves made from the fingers of nitrile gloves were sliding so much that they were useless. It was pretty good for the first 24 hours.

I have the SS V2 Vamo and find that if you use a stainless steel cleaner spray, it not only cleans and polishes the surface, it makes it slightly tacky, not sticky. I never did find the stainless particularly slippery, but I grip mine with my whole hand and fire with my thumb.

Good tip on the stainless cleaner spray, never thought of it.

I took some 220 grit sandpaper to my SS Vamo on the lower tube sections and on the backside, opposite the big button, where my thumb rests. LOTS more grip. I may or may not put some time in to do a neater job. Function is really all that matters to me.

I like the new look but yes I agree some engraving instead would have been nicer.
I will get it when it comes out because sure its just a metal cylinder but at least it has something on it, lol. The Tesla performs like a champ I'm sure but it looked too marital - aid - ish for me, lol
What I don't like is I heard a single 18350 can't be used with it anymore.
If so, that sucks

so, i guess this thing is real. Lord Davon got one and did a little testing.

Pros:
Tuned to RMS only.
Screen is better then the older version
Buttons are metal
Same solid construction

Cons:
Can no longer use a single 18350, but you can stack them.
Stacked 18350's pumped out almost 18 Watts and popped his coi


ps: got this info from vapor joe's site

strange that he's says one of the pros is "metal buttons" since both of my v2's have metal buttons. I would actually like a v2 with plastic buttons for a change. But everytime i see a plastic button one for sale i'm worried it will end up being a v1.

and not being able to use one 18350 sucks!!! I love the vamo in small mode.

What the hell???? You can't use a single 18350. I just got my v2 this week and I've been running it in short mode the whole time. That was one of the features that attracted me to this. It's big, but not too big for my tastes. Hopefully by the time I need a new one, they add that feature back in.

Where would we let the manufacturer know this?

No where, China didn't listed to anyone.... makes you wonder who they got testing these things. Our anything for that matter

I sent a message here cherryluo@szxp88.com This is an email address for complaints.

Hello,

I just received a Vamo this week and I have to say that it is an amazing product. I didn't expect it to improve my vaping experience as much as it did. The price and performance cannot be beat!

However, I have come to the understanding version 3 does not have the option to use a single 18350 battery. I ask that you please reconsider this change and not take away the option. Having the ability to use this device in a shortened state was one of the features that prompted me to order it. I believe you might lose out on a number of sales if this feature is excluded in future incarnations.

Thank you for your time.

-Charlie

Not sure if Shenzhen is the actual manufacturer though.
