yay! vamo purchase

[cherrycakes]

They make fake 3000mah and 4000mah batteries that are really something like 1000mah. But if you know you're getting lower capacity batteries than advertised, they're not bad.... at least, I haven't had any issues with them, but I'm only on my third set. However, you may be right about them not being good for the Vamo, because I use them in a Vape-Pro, but as far as I know both devices have the exact same features in regards to power regulation. BTW, these have been lasting me about 1-2 days before a recharge is necessary... the 2200mah batteries last about 3-4 days. So, if you're willing to make the compromise, it's not like they're going to fail on you within a few hours like those little 510 disposable auto batteries do. However, DO go with better quality batteries if you can. The only reason I'm even running them is because I just want to find out if they at least work decently as 1000mah batteries.

If they work I wouldn't go buy more but I don't know I saw someone on facebook complaining that their batteries sucked

Users have reported problems using Trustfire protected batteries with their Vamos.
I would cancel the order if it's not too late.

If they dont work ill use em in my bike light i guess, that is using trustfires already, but ill need to order 2 more in that case. I looked and i think youre right though, those cells have a protected cut off so will probably just deny me when i try to hit them with a high drain coil. I only run about 6W tops so its really a toss up. I have a scope and id like to run some tests on the batteries, but i need to get my hands on a probe

stay away from any battery that ends with the word FIRE...nuff said.

You may be ok at 6W.
Speculation was that the boost circuit was causing problems with the TF's protection.

Some testing would be great to see.
I can say that I've run some TF 14500's with one of my AGA'T's using a 1.1 ohm coil in a mech mod.
I had no issues in that case.
