Ok my one year smoke free coming up so want to treat myself and move up a scale.

Have been reading about the vamo kit from fastech which you all pont to being a good kit. I started with Skycig, then to Riva 1100 then on to my spinners which I love. ( the others don't do it for me now ) although I have read this forum extensively, I am still not sure what extra the vamo will give me to the spinners. Also do I just pop in the two batteries, fill up the clearo and go? Don't think I could get into recoiling etc, does any clearo fit it? Have read something about springs and magnets?
Second question, as mentioned I love my spinners but they are a bit large to take out. Does anyone know of a smaller vv battery?

Just want something that is better than a spinner but is easy to use. Many thanks.

Hi Padiho,

I was exactly in the same scenario as yourself, I was using an ECO C Twist, and I contemplated upgrading to the Vamo.

So, I took the plunge, and I couldnt believe the difference, it was a massive difference, I vape at 7.5 watts, using wattage - not power.

My juices taste better, & the vaping experience for myself has improved tenfold.

You wont regret getting a Vamo, - IMO

You lot are just fantastic, thank you so much for all the advice. I have decided to go for the vamo but not get the complete kit from fasttech. So I will scource the charger and batteries from elsewhere then ( are they not safe from fasttech) did I also get it right that its best to only use one battery in it? I.e. in its shortest mode. I will go to torchy and get two batteries and a charger from them.
Giles I think I will also get the 400 spinner from madvapes...it is after all my year anniversary and I think I deserve to have both

I read somewhere that if used in mini mode with just one 18350, there are some limitations as well as wattages you shouldn't set the Vamo to.
Can anyone please shed some light onto this?

robby and i think @simate use batteries frim fasttech and i am pretty sure robby said they do the nitecore i4 which is a great charger. A lot of people use that one on here.
As for batteries it is advised not to stack 18350 batteries so you will need a 18650 battery to use in big mode.
I only use big mode and now have 3 18650 batteries with me at all times and then 2 at home for the evic.

Hi padiho, yes the 18650 batteries are genuine and they sell them at probably the best price on the internet. The Panasonics are particularly good value and quality. Many forum members have bought them, myself included and there is no doubt as to the quality and they are genuine for sure. There is a nitecore charger there for about £13 shipped. It is a great charger.

Great choices mate, you should get a couple more batteries though

You can treat an 18350 battery exactly the same as a 18650 battery, it will just run out of power sooner

Thanks Robby. I thought I had read somewhere you can't it above a certain wattage. I must have been dreaming as it also doesn't make any sense!

[robby]

The only thing they have going for them is the size really lemental, handy for out and about

I use AW's and Efests in mine at the moment. I did have Panasonic cgr18650ch in a Vamo I had last year but sold it all Roscopecotrain

I've just got a couple of Panasonics from Fasttech and they fit a treat, last for almost 2 days of average vaping, and charge up in about 6 hours on my Xtar Mp15(s?)
I would thoroughly recommend the batteries, and at £11.50 including a plastic battery box, you just can't beat that price - see if you can get 2 for that price in the UK and you'll see just what a great deal it is!
