i got one of these in a trade a while ago, looks a lovely bit of kit but i'm not keen on it tbh. I've only used it in dripping mode but it gives no flavour on the inhale because of the cold vape. for dripping i much prefer the A7/ SS pheonix from safercigs/vapingthings.

The section under the screen can be removed its just a push fit. The vamo in 18650 is in 5 seperate parts. Top cap, screen housing tube, upper battery tube, lower battery tube and the end cap. The only bits that are screw fit is the lower battery tube and the battery end cap, the rest is push/interference fit.

If you have an ipad checknout i-display. Uses your ipad as a second monitor using your wifi connection.

If you are really not fussed about size, how about something serious which has proper short protection? Lavatube, Garry Dibley mod? Cost a bit more now, but should be cheaper in the long run because of battery life. What d'you reckon to initial outlay? Something simple which over a few months might work out cheaper than endless heads. My re-coils vape well on a little more than 3.7, just the risk is stressing me out....1  can't beat the Vamo for a cheap VV/VW mod. allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=shopping&action=display&thread=15113 |

I recoiled 6 heads today but never used the no-resistance wire. Just used 0.15 nichrome and recoiled as normal. seems to be working ok.

100%  being me , that's probably about right  Wouldn't a short mean a lower resistance? Electricity travelling the path of least resistance and all that... Still... That is really unlucky, you should definitely let the vendor know before somebody with little or no ability to fix the problem ends up with the same thing. I'm no leccy just assuming they where shorting. when i moved the coil about in the head the resistance would drop a bit, a bit more wiggling the coil holding the wicks it would change again so just assumed the coil was shorting on the heads casing. but yeah thinking about it , it could have been a case of the coil tails not making good contact with either the positive or negative side of the head. yeah , I have let the vendor know he might have a dodgy batch. |

I received today a 3.5ml nova stv kit and a mini nova kit. In total they included 6 atomizer heads from a uk vendor.
Excitedly i put the stv on the vamo to check it's resistance....7 ohms....hmmmm
ok got one of the other heads out and fitted it to the nova..5.4ohms....hmmmm
This went on for all 6 heads, resistance from 5 ohms up to 9..
So i dug out my mulitmeter to check for shorts on the nova assembly ( positive to negative pins ) and that was fine. I even attached to heads to the mini nova assembly with the same results.
Checked each heads resistance with the mulitmeter and all where way off 5ohms up to 20 ohms or so..they where all shorting.
Now, I know the Chinese QC isnt the best but seriously this was ridiculous...
After a marathon recoiling stint I've managed to get them all into the working 1.8-2.2 ohm range ( though the resistance markings on them are moot now)
but what are the odds of that......

I think most batts will fit the vamo V2 now they've addresses the spring length. If it's got metal buttons it's a v2. I just thought it was the V1 with rubber buttons had the battery length issue..
