Stay FAR, FAR way from Volcano. I'm on my fourth defective Lavatube V2 and I'm getting ready to return it and get my money back. Dealing with Volcano is the worst experience I've had to date with any e-cigarette company.
My SS Vamo has been spectacular. I've got a Provari on the way so we'll see about that one. I have no doubt the Provari will prove to be all it's been touted to be but I won't fault the Vamo one bit. The variable wattage option is nice.
I really love the way a provari fits and hits..i really hate the menu and cant see myself getting use to it..maybe im wrong
Wats the price difference?
Wats the price difference?
The reasons I went with Vamo is because it's cheaper, it's not as thick (diameter), and it can be used with 18350 (short mode). Other than that, I know people completely happy with their Volcano V2 also. There are fan-boys of both!
Definitely the Vamo over the volcano. Vamo is a power regulated variable wattage PV with a 5 amp switch. Volcano can't match the Vamo's spec's and the Vamo is all of $40.
That $160 difference is a killer tho...is it as hardy as the provari..or does it have cheap plastic feel to it?
Vamo is as solid as they come and have some weight to them, very nice looking and feel IMHO. I've got 2 of them now.
Vamo is stainless steel and feels substantial to me. It probably is not as sturdy as the Provari. I've been using mine continuously for 2 months without a problem. But considering you can get 4 Vamo's for the price of a provari, does it matter.
I'm fixing to pull the trigger on a vamo. Where is the best price for a complete kit, charger, batteries .... I need it all because all I've used untill now is the Ego style batts with clearos.
I got my batteries separately because they were Efest batteries, which are high quality, the price was good plus free shipping. So since the shipping was free I didn't see the need to get the batteries where I got the Vamo. Here is the sites for both the Vamo and the batteries (you can get a Trustfire charger at CCV also):
VAMO Variable Volt/Watt APV V2
Efest IMR 18350 800mAh 3.7V LiMn Battery Flat Top or Nipple Tops (2PCS)
Provari is the way to go, worth every penny in my opinion.
The Vamo is a good mod for the money but not half as reliable, I do repair work for a local vendor - it's mainly Twists damaged by people sitting down with their ecig in their pocket, a few Evics with broken top caps/electronics failure.
There is a pile of broken Vamo's - all board failures.
The last batch turned up displaying the "Lo" error message, every single one of them - not good.
Provari's very,very rarely screw up, they last for years thus saving money in the long run.
