Tam Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Of course you need it! A wise-beyond-his-years 5 year old once told me, "I need what I want." kitsune 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willmon22 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Seems like an expensive mod. Let us know how it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffb Posted November 27, 2012 Author Share Posted November 27, 2012 It was only $59. definitely not an expensive mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uma Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I so want one! The menu is great, nice KISS modes. Looking forward to hearing your take on it Jeffb. Especially the connection.. is it sealed, press fitted, soldered, you know the drill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rixter Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) Is it just my imagination, or is the Vamo APV the same exact thing as the eGo APV for $20 more? Have a close look at the links. Edited November 27, 2012 by Rixter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rixter Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) ...or is it the same thing and Health Cabin just sells them cheaper because they're in China? *UPDATE* $14.50 for shipping from Health Cabin to the U.S. makes it close to the same price as the Vamo.

Jeffb Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 Yeah same things I assume. I just like the name Vamo better than eGo VvVmApv2 kitsune 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffb Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 I'll use the Vamo for a little while then maybe get that new Evic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willmon22 Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Yeah anything over 35 is expensive for me. I can't really afford to just keep getting new things for even higher prices. Really wish I could but I am just having job issues. Anyways I like my ego-vv more than enough to not think about getting a new battery for awhile.

Jeffb Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 Yeah the job market pretty much sucks out there. I would hate to be job hunting in this market. I've been blessed with my job and thank God every morning for it on the way to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffb Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 The Vamo has an extension for using an 18650 or (2) 18350's. Without the extension it uses a single 18350. I've been using it all weekend and I am impressed with it. It is about an inch longer and is heavier than the Provari. I should receive my Lvatube 2.0 tomorrow.

danpio1217 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Now i'm torn between the iTaste MVP and this vamo contraption. I've been wanting to try out variable power for awhile now, and this looks like a nice mod, really like the multiple battery and size capability, Jeff, if you had to choose which you do like better?

I new I new mod bit don't know what to get. Have had a lavatube and a lavatube mini. The reviews and people I have talked to seem to like the new Lava Tube 2 a lot. Much improved over the old one in every aspect. Uma 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having used both now. I would choose the Vamo over the MVP. The MVP worked well but the batts are non replaceable and in the future when the batts go out, you basically have a useless box unless you tear it open and mod it.The Vamo also has better functions IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danpio1217 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 That's sorta the way i was leanin, thanks jeff! I really like the idea of multiple battery combos, and the variable wattage is a big plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danpio1217 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Between the stainless and the gunmetal which is less fingerprint/scratch prone? My Young June tube is great but damn does it mark up easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffb Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 I would think the gun metal one would be less finger print prone, although it is a shiny gun metal and you will get finger prints, just not as noticeable as the chrome one. I did see a post on another forum where a guy had the gun metal one and the gun metal coating was wearing off. I have not had that issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rixter Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Hey jeffb...I'm going to be ordering a Sigelei ZMAX this weekend and was doing a little studying up on them over at tasteyourjuice.com. According to pbusardo's video on them (and the original Smoktech ZMAX), they use PWM at 33.3hz, which sounds like a rattlesnake when firing cartos. I was wondering if your new Vamo makes that sound as well, and if so, is it very irritating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
