Also make sure that you hold the - button down for approx 10 seconds until no2 shows on the display, as this will then put it into RMS mode, something I only discovered last night, although I've only had it a day so I'm prepared to let myself off.

Explanation:
ukvapers.org/Thread-Vamo
The Vamo runs in both V(avg) mode and V(rms) mode. (Average and Root Mean Square). Basically, it's the way the output voltage is approximated using PWM (pulse width modulation). To put it simply, V(avg) mode delivers a vape which is way more powerful than it supposed to be, especially at low voltages. A 3V setting in V(avg) mode is more like 4.3V in reality. V(rms) mode gives a more accurate output.

To change the mode (ALWAYS run it in V(rms) mode) hold down either the plus (+) or minus (-) key for at least 10 seconds until either "NO1" or "NO2" is shown on the display. The one you want is "NO2".

I bought one of these, body only, from 2Smok a couple of months ago as they were selling them for £15 and it was too good a price to miss.

The build quality is crap and I wasn't expecting otherwise, but in fairness it has performed well with a decent amount of usage.

Maybe I've been lucky, or Ratty's been unlucky, but if they are knowingly selling sub-standard goods then they should be advertising them as such. On the other hand, if this was just one dodgy one in the batch then the vendor should be prepared to listen to customers and deal with any issues accordingly, as I'm sure the vast majority of vendors who advertise on the board would.

I can understand what Izan is saying, the phrase "I don't have enough money to buy cheap" comes to mind, and if mine gave up the ghost tomorrow after a couple of months I'd almost certainly write it off, but a couple of weeks is just plain shoddy.

Go with the Paypal dispute as they almost always give the benefit to the buyer, and you have nothing to lose.

Sounds like shabby treatment, though, maybe you could invite them to state their case on the forum as they're 'active' members, or at least they are most Friday evenings.

I've got five of the flavours on the list, either in my cupboard or on order, which dismays me a little.

However, this whole "safe to vape" thing is very ambiguous, as Frogster says.

Who says so? Who's done the studies? Why can't we vape oil-based flavours if it's ok to mix them with aromatherapy oils and heat them in burners for making our houses smell nice as surely we're still inhaling them? (obviously I don't personally do this as I'm a bloke and would rather my house smelt of curry and pizza)

Obviously I'm not going to vape a flavour that's been mixed with anything that's been proven to be detrimental to my health, but with the lack of any long-term studies do we know that inhaling PG won't be proven to be a dangerous pursuit over a prolonged period of time?

No conclusive evidence is available, as this is still very much in its infancy, so as with everything else in grown-up world, each individual is responsible for his/her own decisions as to what is safe or not.

I'll vape the flavours I've purchased as I don't make cupcakes and don't want to waste them, and can't see that they'll do me any more harm than a packet of Marlboro will.

I will, however, look for PG-based flavours in future, as I neglected to do this with my last orders, at least until we're told that PG shouldn't be inhaled.

The Nitecore charger will charge pretty much anything you can throw in it.

No spacers required.

Edit - just seen your last post.

Cheers Perps.

Those percentages make me laugh, as when I first started mixing I used 'suggested' percentages like 5% and I might as well have added water for the effect they had on juice flavour.

Like you, I don't do subtle 'hints of' flavours and I want them in my face shouting what they are or what's the point?

Ta, might well give that a go.
