Who officially manufactures these?

[brekehan]

Is there an official manufacturer?
Is there official venders?

There is so much copy catting going on in the ecig world, I want to make sure I am buying what I think I am buying.

Vamo VV Mod, eGo Variable volt/watt APV - HOT Sale e-cigarettes - Product Catalog - Shenzhen RainbowHeaven Technology Co., Ltd--electronic cigarette, e-cigarette, electronic cigarette suppliers

Wow, that is some real Chinese to English!
Ok, now I know who makes them, but who is a good trusted vender that sells the latest revision?

Try Exhale Vapers. Vapor Joe posted a good deal on VAMOs at Exhale today. They've been selling a ton of VAMOs at low prices so what they have should be the latest version.

Tried that site.

It doesn't say whether or not it comes with the cap to fit the 18650.
So, I try to order a cap with it and it won't let me complete the order, because it wants you to choose a color, but the drop down box has no contents. Bad web programmers.

I'll try calling them. They are in my city too if their about is is accurate.

Off topic but on topic at the same time; is the one located at VV650 VAMO V2 (body only) eGo APV - VaporBreak an actual Vamo or knock off? Figure this would be a good spot for this question considering almost same question is being asked.

All VAMOs come configured to be able to use a single 18350 or 18650 as well as stacked 18350s. However, some button top 18350s will not allow the battery cap to screw on all the way when used stacked. It's hard to know whether that is because small differences in the size of the VAMO tubes or that some button top 18350s are larger than others. Flat top Efest 18350s will stack and allow the battery cap to be screwed on all the way.

I've got two from exhale vapors, no battery rattle, fits 18350, 18350x2 and 18650 batteries.

Does the one from Exhale Vapors come with a battery of any kind or sold separately? Their site has so little info about what's included. Also, should I buy a protected or unprotected battery? Protected sounds safer, but I don't know if that interferes with the "high discharge" requirement.

Unprotected IMR high-output. And it is the body only - to get battery, charger etc you should look for a vamo 'kit'.

Yes this is the real deal and the last 2 I got were the V2. You have to sign up to get the best price, $26.99 plus ship for the chrome $29.99 for SS. Direct from China so you'll have a wait and customer service is not the best but seems to be getting better.

 

[brekehan]

Well, it is ordered. No going back now. Next step is googling for a site that sells the IMR 2000mah batteries and a respectable charger.

EDIT: Ok, bought these. Hope this is correct -
High Drain Panasonic CGR18650CH 10A 18650 Rechargeable Battery Cell IMR

I have Panasonic CGR'CH's they are fantastic batteries. I don't own a Nitecore but have read many positive comments about them. Well done, Excellent choices.

As far as VapourBreak goes, they're good if you don't ever intend to return or have problems with a device, if you purchase liquids with your order expect delays. Packages with liquids will be held up by Chinese Customs. None of the Vamo's currently on the market can be accused as being Knock Offs yet. They can however be Old Stock.

Sometimes the Vendors do not check the items before sending them out, for instance some members have reported their Vamo's being squiff or 510 connectors being out of center, buttons that aren't seated correctly. But most Vamo's now have the red insulator and correct spring - a new lower resistance spring.

The Bamboo sold by HealthCabin has a Hot spring. If you want added security, hot springs for Silver Bullets and Omega's are compatible for use in Vamo's. These pretty much guarantee your Vamo works brilliantly straight off the bat. Note: These are not a necessity unless you get the Wimpy spring. Other than that, enjoy your Vamo even with some minor quirks it's still an excellent device.

I am also waiting on a Vamo from Health Cabin among MANY other things from various venders... when does the money saving begin?
