Im torn between an itaste mvp and a vamp v5. I know the mvp will last some time with the battery life. Not really sure about the vamo with the replaceable batteries. I know a lot of people are really happy with the vamo's, I just want some batteries that will last. I work long shifts and don't have access to charge until I get home.
wanting to get a vv mod, want some more info.

How long the Vamo lasts depends on what battery you put in it.
The MVP 2.0 is using a 2600 mAh battery. You can get a 2900 mAh battery for the Vamo which would probably last a little longer.
The upside to the Vamo is you can get more than one battery and swap them out while you recharge. With the MVP you can use passthrough recharging so you can continue to use it while it recharges, but that means you're also tethered to your USB port while you're charging it, and a 2600 mAh battery takes a LONG time to recharge. The downside to the Vamo is it's not as portable as the MVP.

I personally use the MVP at work and have never had any problems with it dying. I have actually had the charge last almost 2 days (just wanted to see) before I needed to charge it. The main problem with the MVP, as I understand it, is that once the battery is used up, it becomes a really nice paperweight. And the Vamo has replaceable batteries.
I have both.
Seen as a medium term solution, the MVP is superb. How long it lasts is hard to say, but even as a sole device it's got to do a year's (?) worth of charging.
People "rate" certain batteries/mods as being able to do x amount of charges. For example, a VV eGo battery should manage 300, but at what point does the battery start to show deterioration? For my needs, a Twist or Spinner shows loss of performance after even 100 charges.
The best thing about an external battery mod is having a pair (or three) batteries in rotation. I'm coming up to 1 year now on my 3 x 18650s and they are almost perfect. I wouldn't imagine that would be the case for an MVP. Much cheaper to buy some new batteries than a new mod, but hey.... MVP is $40 (?), even 6-8 months is less cost than all the other vaping purchases.

Hmmm. I seem to remember reading somewhere to back up your back ups. 
I have a MVP and it lasts me about 2+ days. Died on me last night at work about 2 hours before I went home. Held down my paper schedules well. Pulled out the ole v3 and was good until I got there. It takes about 5 hours to charge the MVP.
Good luck and Happy Vaping!!

I have both. IMO when I'm going to be out for the day, I take the Vamo with an 18650 battery, and just in case a back up 18650. That way I KNOW I'm good. The MVP does last me about a day and a half, but idk I just feel safer with a back up battery, ya never know?
Greetings, welcome to the forum.
Keep in mind that if you get the Vamo, you'll also need to get the batteries and a charger. The MVP battery is built-in, and can be recharged via USB. I don't have an MVP, but I've read that when they're fully charged, they'll give even a heavy vaper well over a day in battery life.
I don't taken my Vamo (V3) out of my home anymore, but when I did, I always needed to carry a spare fresh 18650 with me if I was out for the entire day.

iTaste MVP will last you all day. Though I don't personally own one, my co-worker does and he vapes on it throughout the day and it never dies. We work very long hours (14+) so it can go for a while.
