After much (MUCH) review, I've decided against the Apollo Ego VV, and now I'm trying to decide between the Vamo and the Tesla...both seem to be getting pretty solid reviews, and both seem to be geared toward beginners like myself who want to "step into the paint". What do you guys think is the better buy?

Personally, I'd go with a Provari. Tasteyourjuice.com did a review on both the Tesla and Vamo. Check them both out. He also did one on the Provari.
I would go with the Vamo, I don't know a lot about the Tesla. However for the best buy factor I don't think the Vamo can be beaten. Now that a lot of vendors have the updated spring, switch it to No2 mode and you're good to go. Variable Wattage isn't too shabby either,
I think I'd be doing you an injustice if I didn't mention that if something happens to any of the above mentioned devices they are not really repairable. The Provari has a year warranty and you can purchase a second year. Even if it's out of warranty, Provape will repair it for a nominal cost. My Vamo is on it's last leg. My Provaris are perfect.
The VAMO is tried and true.
Its price is fantastic, and eventhough its not as bulletproof as the Provari, it is a small enough investment that you dont feel bad leaving it behind to step into mech world. I got 2 mechs on the way and combined with my current VAMO i still spent less than a Provari. Go figure.
I should mention that if there comes an FDA ban on ecigs and Provaris cant get repaired any more, mechs will survive. If it comes to a vaping apocalypse like that, a couple of mechs mounted with rebuildables will last longer than a bunker.

VAMO v2 looks fine. Especially with an AGA+ on top.
V3 is worthless. I dont care if it has more features. I dont care if it can launch a darn rocket. Something that looks like that belongs in the trash for me.

Awwe I got a Tesla, I love the name and I think it's rather unique. Although I won't be vaping it in public. I wouldn't buy it if it were to be my ONLY device. My ONLY device would be a Provari... oh wait, that IS my only device! I just bought a Tesla as my second and backup device, something to play around with that's VW.
Perhaps I should have mentioned that my wife would beat me severely if I spent "Provari" kind of money

Tell her it'll save you money in the long run. Or save $40 a month. That's what I did.
Just to update (for anybody that's interested), due to losing my job, I settled for an L-Rider Robust...let me just say, it's nothing to write home about...as soon as I start back working, I'm going for the Vamo (thanks to the folks at Electronic Stix here in Utah for talking me into it!) 
I recommend the Telsa My friend, it's output is amazing, I've had it for over 2-3 months and haven't had a single problem...the feature I love the most about my telsa, the spring loaded post, which is where the current goes through to your piece of equipment ie; tanks, clearomizers etc.
I think the Vamo v2 is a heck of a buy ($40 bucks at many places).
Edit: Just looked at the v3 and can only conclude the designer has sustained a recent head injury...

Hope you get back to work soon
. It's funny, I went in to estix planning to get a vamo and they sold me on a Tesla lol. I do think that the spring loaded center post is nice, I think that the finish is more durable on the Tesla as well.- Status
