Vamo Setup (Ohms and Wattage)

[robby]

All`s well that ends well ;-)

If you press on the possessive button for about ten seconds the display will read NO1 or NO2.
NO1 is a fluctuating mode, and NO2 is the precise mode, NO2 setting is the one you want. Or so Ive been told.

Watched Busardo doing a review on the Vamo, he said it sometimes shuts itself off for no reason, but also reckons with a 350 battery you should get about 6 hrs vape(dependant on use) I am not a heavy vaper.

It is impossible to put an accurate time on any battery as it depends on the mah of the battery, the ohms of the atty used, the voltage/wattage set on the device and how much the person vapes. You got 4 hours from an 18350 which is fine.

[robby]

Yes,4 hours is good for a 900mah (claimed) battery. 900mahs are just the same in one of these batteries as they are in an ego type battery. The trouble is, this kind of mod attracts a better atty etc so the run time could end up less.

The problem of it switching itself off was found to be the spring in the base......but I think Jason has sorted that with his.

Robby, I have only had it a day , so I don't really know a lot about setting it, but it was fine vaping on 7.ow but now it is saying lov and I don't what I have done to change it,only changed the juice in my nova?
I have put it away now I am so disappointed and frustrated. This Twist I am using is like going back to SDK.

Where did you purchase it?

That is correct and it is the one I put it on .

I don't think there is anything wrong with it, it just needed the battery changing. This Vamo is a learning curve for me.


Spoke too soon, it's gone again, back to LOv. Without the battery it is reading 1.1. resistance 3.Ov. With battery 3.5W LOv GRRRRRR

What brand of batteries are you using?

If the 1.1 is the attis resistance I think thats your problem try an atti 2.5ohms.

The torpedo/lavatube rebrand is a similar class and it recognises if the atti is to low and shuts down.

Im not 100% sure on this but is worth a read 

Short
Circuit/Atomizer Protection. The TORPEDO VVV can recognize an atomizer
that has too low resistance for the current voltage setting, and will
drop the voltage to 3.7v to protect both the battery and atomizer. If
the atomizer is low resistance or shorted out, the TORPEDO VVV will shut
off power to the device to protect it from being damaged. www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk/products/variable-voltage-devices/kits/torpedo-chrome-vvv-kit-product.html

I didn't understand ths bit "Without the battery it is reading 1.1. resistance 3.Ov. With battery 3.5W LOv "

I couldn't work out the without battery bit cos it wouldn't work without a battery lol.

Agreed if the atty is 1.1ohms then it will not work with ohms that low, 1.3ohms seems to be the lowest it will accept as I discovered Wednesday night when I recoiled my Aga-T2+

Just interested to know what setup people use on their Vamo. Resistance of atty vs wattage/voltage.

Mono

With a Vivi Nova 2.8ohm I find the optimum is around the 7W mark.
VN @ 1.8ohm, 5W
DCT @ 1.5ohm, 7W.

The more I read the more I see these devices are built to work best on bigger ohms.

It makes perfect sens when you think who wants atties over 2.3

Ive small atties on order from the town market vender (3 weeks and still waitin of china delivery) He was selling in hes words 'I think there 2.8'

I cant see myself using the ego batterys so much now so I wont be taking many of the small one of his hands 

Ill have to go and buy a collar so the ego tanks fit Ive a few with the 'I think there 2.8' atties
