Supposed to delivered today.I have to gone when mail runs,but I live in a very small rural area,no one would mess with package
If package fits in mail-box it'll be here when I get home.
I've heard nothing but good things from M & P's and if Li-Ion are like Li-Po's there are no brand names,just different wrapper on each cell.
Before I start worrying about cells,just use the ones I got.I'm sure they'll work fine.
I'm sure M & P's know how to get the good cells.

I got a defective Vamo.
None of my new 510 cartomizers,Sub tanks,mini sub-tanks,or older Vivi Nova fit my new Vamo.They fit all my 6 of my Ego 510's great.
The threads are not straight up and down,like this (|) but at a slight angle,like this (\) on Vamo.Not so steep but enough to not allow carts to screw.I'm 98% sure that is the problem.
I'm using sub on ego 510 and no problem,these tanks work great I'm fogging up room and no dry hits using just an Ego 510 650's, but it won't fit on Vamo.All my new carts and assembled tanks fit Ego 510's but not new Vamo.

Mom and Pop's sent me all kinds if extra batteries,stuff I would have needed to fill tanks but didn't know to order,samples,etc...
Just a quality control issue.My other tanks that fit lower threads and 510 threads aren't in line.

My dad has a hardheaded miniture donkey,male of course.He likes to get out and electric fence had a weak spot.Was in middle of that and etc....


The small positive button inside female 510 connection is too high,so I may be wrong about slanted threads.It takes 2-3 turns and all my new carts,old vivi's,just are not getting enough threads to hold cart in place.It's hard to put in words but once I had more time and compared Ego 510 to Vamo.
I think 2-3 threads just isn't enough to hold sub tanks in place.
My ego 510 takes 9-10 turns until cart gets tight or hit positive button inside female 510 connection and all the new tanks,carts and old vivi's fit fine.Really great tanks,especially 1.7ohms on 510 650.fog up room.
Mom and Pop are taking care of it.
I've read great things about Mom and Pops for 3 years solid,just got frustrated chasing donkey and wanted to make sure I got issue reported.
Mom and pop's will take care of it.

That's the problem with not having an adjustable center pin--between the manufacturers all having slightly different lengths and tolerances and the boom in vaping (and price wars) making quality control slip more and more it doesn't take very much for something to be so "out of spec" that it is unusable. Two or three threads isn't enough to hold any 'mizer in place adequately, adding a tank just changes "adequately" to "at all." The problem a lot of people run into with that is that they'll just go ahead and screw it down tighter until it feels solid--and the 'mizer is shorted by that point.

I've never had a Vamo, but I've not heard of this being a recurring issue, so hopefully now that Pop will feel compelled to check all the ones they have in stock it won't take him too long and he won't find any other ones ;)

Mom and Pop are taking care of it.

Oh yeah, reporting problems here is fine. That's just one of the things that make them so wondrous in this day and age--they would rather have problems reported publicly than not reported at all. They're just so busy that they don't always get to log on here every day and their normal email channels are so clogged with spam that legitimate emails sometimes get lost in the flood, so the quickest way to make sure they know about the problem is through the website (I believe they have an "alarm" set up to notify them every time the Contact Us page is used). You seemed to be quite excited about getting the Vamo so I just wanted to make sure there was no delay in getting your defective one taken care of :)

The Vamo is built like a tank.
I do like this better,Sigelei Zmax Telescope V3 VV/VW now that I really have time to look.
I'm a vendor on ebay,changing an order in the middle or after it's all packaged up can be a pain in the donkey.
Had to throw that one in.
:laugh:

We need a picture of Shrek's Donkey,I have not a clue how to do that.

donkey joke:

Z-Max was travelling down a country road in his native Yorkshire, England when he saw a crowd of people gathering outside a farmhouse.
It was a cold November afternoon, so he stopped and asked Farmer Ellis why such a large crowd of men was gathered there.
The farmer replied, 'Jo's donkey kicked his mother-in-law and she died.'
'Well, 'replied the man, 'She must have had a lot of friends.'

'Nope, 'said Farmer Ellis.' We all just want to buy his donkey.:ohmy:
