I also have the V2 for over a year now with no problems and yes it is built to last IMO. I received 2 'V5' duds so far and I am in the midst of waiting for the 3rd replacement.

Mine keeps it's settings but it is a KSD. The shutting off randomly does not sound good. I don't know anything about the knock off Vamos but I soon will. I could not pass up the 17.10 Ali express deal so I ordered a SS unit from that site last week. Fast tech was not cheap enough to tempt me. I mean heck, they are only 34 bucks for a KSD from an authorized seller on eBay.
Mine, also a KSD, keeps it's settings, doesn't randomly shut off, nice unit...
Yeah, I'd contact FT for a swap or refund. Sounds like a bad board or solder connection.

So I have a question guys. My kit came with 2 flat top trust fire 1200 mah batteries are these safe? I already had to send it back to the vender as something went pear shaped from one of the free clearos it came with using a hobby grade charger I get them to 4.1 each.the charger it came with was crap and not worth the weight sending back. Please let me know as I hope to have a replacement saturday . if needs be I will go to the vape shop and snake something better.
Batteries with "fire" in the name don't have a real good reputation in these parts... Flat top is fine, though 
"Hobby grade" charger? I suppose it might depend on what the hobby is, but a good charger is worth the minor investment. As are good batteries.
I'm guessing the ones provided are 18500? I've not seen any 18350s in that rating, although I've not looked at that size in some time. But if they are 18350, I wouldn't recommend stacking them. What info is on the label? I.e. size and type?

It is bad, can conflict with the units protections.
I just bought another set of the Efest purple IMR 18350's this morning. Same seller but this time they come with a carry case for 11.95 or something for a pair, shipped. I really like the ones I already have and found I much prefer the Vamo in the shorter mode.
Will see what the vender says as they should get it today. I miss it a standard ego sux so bad after.
After reading all 15 pages of this thread it seems to me the vamo v5 is crap. Cheap 510 threading and goofy pin that you have to use a gasket and paper clip to fix.. Thanks for deterring me from buying a paper weight.
Lots of 'em out there, and like anything else, the ones who are perfectly happy don't feel a need to post.
First time I have seen this
My Vamo reads both OHMs (right button shows 1.7) and Power (left button shows 4.0v) but when I hit the fire button it shows 0.1s and goes to 0.2s, 0.3s, on and on and on will go to 3.0s and maybe even higher but I stopped. Has anybody ever heard of that?

It's a counter,it shows you how many seconds you hold the fire button.You can hold both small buttons for like 3 seconds to get to the menu,then you can choose what it shows when you press the fire button.
Oh alright. Not sure how I got it there but finally got it off.
thanks
thanks
I apologize if my post is offtopic to this thread:
I am thinking about getting one of those vamos ($22.25 Vamo V5 Variable Voltage / Wattage Mod - aluminum / 3.0-6.0V / 3.0W-15.0W / black at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping) as I am a fan of black tube mods. I plan to use ot as my primary mod (I am still using a lavatube in 2014).
Does anyone have any experience with those? I have also read that I need to get an adapter to protect the threads. Does it add too much length (I use 18650s)? And could anyone please recommend one?

I have two of them and have never had problems with the threads. One was bought at Fasttech. Others might know more
