Well done Davey, £8 FOR 40, should last ya a year. why can't I think that far ahead

Well when Robby first put me onto the prices of the Vamo in China, i missed the part where the prices goes down on VaporBreak after you register.
I ended up ordering from Zany..No biggie, still a bargain. Robbie then mentioned the ready made wicks and these

I couldnt resist....and it seem pointless only ordering 10

Any chance you can do a picture tutorial Robby. I have my cheque book at the ready to pay for my lesson

[robby]

You can spend an awful lot of money on this stuff if you really get into it like I have, but at prices like vaporbreaks etc, it doesnt have to cost a lot

Cheers Rob, fully understood your post. I did see a picture somewhere of a double coil. will have to try and find it.
Liking the sound of 2 coils parallel, I must make sure that I am sitting down when vaping, don't fancy fallen flat on my face.

It can be a hard one to get your head round, if you think of the coils as hose pipes supplying current instead of water, two coils (hose pipes) are going to let twice as much current (water) through.

All I did when I did my double coil was to twist the two wires together on each side taking care to have one coil physically above the other with a small gap, a bit like bunk beds, you dont want the actual coils touching each other, and dont forget to test the resistance before you hit the fire button 

Awesome timing.. I was just about to ask if there was a technique for this method

Twisting the wires together may seem unnecessary, but it is best if you do that to keep the coils slightly apart.

I'm right in assuming that the premade wicks will have no bearing on a nova heads quoted resistance ?

You have a link for them Robby ?

I've got a mini nova so can recoil them too.

No,it doesnt matter what the resistance was, you will be replacing it, here`s the link

www.vaporbreak.com/en/ego-ufo/166-atomzier-wick-for-ego-ufo-.html

the shipping on that will be $4, it`s best to see if you need anything else and spread the $4 over a few items, yes, you should be able to do the mini nova, I dont have one myself but it should be okay.

Vamo Kit + Vivi Nova + Wick/Coils , man I'm gonna be in trouble.

There a good guide for VV/VW noobs on the forum ?

Just to let anyone else who has ordered a vamo or anything else from Zainy or VapourBreak. They are definitely both having some time off for the Chinese holidays and who can blame them.I read on Zainy that the cut off point was the 3rd and Vapourbreak from the 7th. So if you ordered after these dates (like me) dont expect anything to happen til the 13th from Vapour Break and the 18th from Zainy and even then expect the built up orders to be processed in sequence.
No big deal at all to me... because i do love a bargain

I actually posted this earlier while I was at work.. Just got home and realised I posted it in the wrong thread.. Seems more relevant here, but apologies to those who have already seen it.

I don't mind a little wait, my Riva's are only 10 days old lol.

I'm still intrigued as to battery performance. Hoping to keep it mini when out and about, but if better full size should I be stacking 18350 or 1 x 18650 ?

Try and get yourself 1 or 2 18650s. You will never get the capacity with 2 18350s that you will with one reasonable capacity 18650

you shouldn't be stacking batteries! The vamo takes either a 18650 in full mode or a 18350 in mini mode. the 18650 in large mode will last a lot longer than mini mode!

You can get round this by carrying a couple of spare 18350s for out and about, do carry the spares though in a battery box to prevent damaging them or them shorting out when in contact with something metal such as keys!

Hi Mono.. Have a look on the last couple of pages here. Robby and others explain exactly that in more detail

Bed time for me.. Early start

Check these out, they are £3-99 for two 2600mah shipped from UK, refurbished, usually means ex equipment stripped out. I have bought two like this before and they work A1. They claim to be Sonys. Personally I would buy them if I needed some today, but I have loads of 18650s. They appear to have the right number on them. Each one of them will give you more capacity than 2 18350s.
