Hi all
My Vamo is playing up - as soon as a battery gets down to 3.8v my Vamo displays an 02 fault. It doesn't matter what carto, tank, clearo etc is on top the fault happens each time a battery hits 3.8v. As soon as I change the battery for a fully charged one the fault clears.
Any ideas/suggestions on how to stop this happening please?
(Oh I think its a V2 Vamo)
Thanks!

Have a look at the body of the vamo, is the press fit section misaligned at all?

just remove the battery from the device and give the bottom a gentle but firm push back up you may find it will pop back into place.

Robby started a thread on this a while back. He took a couple apart and the had bad connections in the earth screw on the head iirc. I will see if I can find it when Iget 5 mins.

They can suffer a large voltage drop under load through poor connectivity between The tubes as well as the earth wire under the top cap. If you feel it getting hot around any of the joints in the body then tht is where the problem lies. They are press fitted together and quite easily pulled apart to clean up the inside faces of Any suspect joints.
