A few people have reported problems with vaporbreak shipping. It's probably all sorted and fine again but it's best to be aware others have had problems with them. Really? I've have a lot of gear from there and always use the cheapest shipping option too. Never had a problem to be fair.

kalbo Works out about the same as fasttech then with delivery but two weeks for delivery is pretty quick from China. Thank you for the link I'll have a nosey around on that site. No probs. still comes in at under £20 with delivery so yeah, not much in it. I'm waiting for my king clone to arrive from there. My buddy got one and it's amazing. The threads are a bit squeaky, but it hits harder than his original king mod that cost him over $200. I can't wait :-)

Thats a couple of mentions of threads in this .... Well, thread. kalbo where can I get a v5 for £15 ? The fasttech ones are about £21 for the stainless steel version. www.vaporbreak.com/en/home/306-vamo-v5-main-body-stainless-steel.htmlObviously the shipping is an extra 7 dollars if my memory serves, but that's the slow boat delivery method. There are other delivery options but they were more than I wanted to pay. Took about 2 weeks to get here when I ordered one for a mate of mine.

chykensa I haven't got £50 it was just the one I was thinking of from fasttech lol. I thought the forum was flooded with vamo owners but some helpful answers all the same, thank you. I might wait until something pops up in the classies. You can get a V5 from china for about £15 if you don't mind waiting a few weeks

Sounds good but I would up the black currant too at least 15% I'd up it to 20% but I like blackcurrant so it's down to taste I guess.

Can't fault the V5 at the minute. Only had it a couple of months so no issues with threads etc. I like it a lot

Personally I'd order more sweetener. That's a lot of concentrate you've got there, I don't think 10ml will go far with all them. Good selection there though, enjoy!

My wife flew back from visiting her parents in the Philippines on November 9th. As her flight was leaving Manila, I was watching the typhoon devastation on tv. All communication was down and I couldn't contact her. Longest 24hrs in my life. Wasn't sure she was safe until she walked through arrivals at Heathrow. Scarey! :-(

Yeah nano dragon coil, it looks a beast doesn't it? I'm gonna give that a try when my mod arrives:-) some of the coils being built for sub ohm vaping really are works of art and the vape production looks tremendous. Yeah thats it, glad you knew name as I would of never found pics again lol. Have you seen the 'show me your coils' thread on ukvapers? I wouldn't be able to make some of that stuff in a million years of trying lol. Here ya go, I love this guy. Check him out he does some unreal builds. He's hilarious too.

If you roll up the cotton and put it through the coils it should be even better. More juice will g to your coils, more hot coil surface making more vapour. Glad you are enjoying it. Vape on Yeah I will try different builds, but as a first set up it's not half bad at all :-)

changed coils to new ones and still the same it is set to No2 the RMS mode What's it actually vaping like? It's got me a bit stumped that it's tasting burnt at 6watts, the only time I get that is when my coils are shot, but if you've changed them it's obviously not that. hmmm hope you get it sorted mate.

So, because I'm a vamo user with a risistance limit of 1.3ohms, I've always given RDA's a bit of a wide birth, thinking they were exclusively the realm of sub ohms mod users. How wrong I was. On the sound advice from a few AAE-C members I got myself an IGO W dripper. I must admit, I didn't hold out much hope of it working too well, but at £12 I was willing to give it a shot. It would always come in handy when my King clone mod finally arives from China.
The Build- All the builds for this device seemed to be by modders using like 0.30 kanthal and ending up with a resistance around 0.5ohms, my vamo wouldn't even fire at that so here's what I did. using 0.20 kanthal, I made 2 micro coils using 10 wraps round a 1.1mm hypodermic needle. Rather than wicking through the coils, I first fired the vamo then tightened the coils up. A quick check and it comes in at spot on 1.3ohms, more by luck than judgement, but anyway it was looking good. To wick it, I laid a tiny piece of cotton wool on the bed, directly underneath both of the coils then added a few drops of juice just to help moulding and tucking it right underneath both coils. So with the cotton in position, it looked good to go. By this point I'm still quite skeptical, but keen to give It a vape. I replaced the cover, carefully lining up the air holes with the 2 coils. It also worth pointing out, that when the IGO W was delivered this morning, the air holes were simply way too small. I instantly drilled them both out to 1.6mm which seemed about right for me. I'm a bit short on drip tips, so I stuck the one from my Kanger aerotank in cranked it up to 12 watts and let it rip with my rhubarb and custard liquid. The flavour is amazing, and for a vamo the vape is plentiful. For a 1st build on a dripper, I'm well happy! Thanks for the heads up to the members who gave me the heads up on this one, much appreciated.
