Just ordered a Vamo.

[Ewol]

Just ordered the SS one from vaporbreak.

It's massive, it's ugly, but I still wanted one. Everyone seems to have one these days so I wanted one too. :-[

Now I just need some recommendations for batteries? If you don't mind.

Hi, these are excellent value,

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2x-PANASONIC-NCR-18650-A-Li-Ion-3100mAh-3-6V-Rechargeable-Lithium-BATTERY-18700-/360578113006?pt=UK_ConsumerElectronics_Batteries_SM&hash=item53f4215dee

They are 3100mah Panasonics, I use 3400mah Panasonics, but the extra cost isnt really justified. I get two days from the 3400 ones on my Vamo

These are the 3400mah ones I bought -

There is a steady stream of new vapers buying Vamo's, could be a plan for a group buy of decent 18650's.

The thing with batteries is that cheap ones will not only under perform but also be quite dangerous - it is best to buy high quality from reputable vendors - the same goes for chargers.

Skimp on whatever you like but not the batts!!

Tom, do those 3400mAh fit the vamo ok?, tight fit or?


edited to add, 4 for £25 here, bargain no?

Bargain? Yes . The price of the 3400s is starting to creep down slowly now . I would describe them as a "good" fit, not tight, but no rattle either.

A vamo doesn't need to be wand like with an 18650 all the time, it can be used in a far more sensible 18350 size
NEVER skimp on batteries, always buy from a trusted source so that you know that you are getting a genuine item and not a dangerous fake.

Great batteries Blakey, the Effests are a bit too wide being almost 19mm in diameter, Vapeescape recommend not using them in the Vamo

That's the big 3400mah 18650s rob, the 18350s are perfect as are the 2000mah 18650s

[Super-Shiny]

I use the 18650 (2000mah) from VE and they are great, never had a wobble or anything

[robby]

It`s a pity these are tabbed, Panasonic IMR allegedly, 2250mah for £8 shipped. I have a couple of Sanyo tabbed batteries that I use, I just cut off the tabs, they work in my Vamo fine. A trusted vender too.

Wow, these look good, Panasonic Hybrid IMRs, 2250mah for £5-95 each free shipping (I think), currently £2 off each. Apolloecigs. They claim they outperform AWs.
