i had a good play with my v3 just now. where they have cut the spiral into it, is fairly sharp edging.. the top cap comes off and its not diamontes on it but little incuts which kind of sparkle. the led plate isnt as secure on as it could be. all in all i still reckon its worth the money (fasttech) A few good improvements on V2, better screen, 2 seperate tubes so when in 18650 mode no join half way up, wider hole at top so will take Evods etc without airflow issues, removeable top ring so it will take other wide ar*ed attys. All in all better performance but still not sold on the swirly design, as you say it's cut quite deep and the tube look like a similar guage metal as V2 so Imagine it must affect the strength of it and could damage easier. Overall I quite liked it and it's a good cheap step up from ego's etc but OH's friend liked it more so it now stays across the street  .... I've got to many mods anyway plus another couple on route  Agree it is very much improved, I was thinking about getting a carbon fibre j wrap but im a bit concerned it won't seat correcty with the swirly design :S |

I have the flat top panasonic 3400mAh batteries - www.fasttech.com/products/1420/10001980/1141100They fit my Vamo V2 perfectly well, From what I can see from it the nippled ones should fit as well as the flat tops don't seem to compress the spring too much. Verey says that they do Bernard.  Oh yes, thank you Perpetua seemed to have missed that one :/ Thank you for the link vereybowring, I'll be going with those Thanks guys, been a big help! |

No idea about the technicalities of it, but I wouldn't stack batteries period . . . I rather like my head being attached to my shoulders. Stick to the one 18350 until you get some other batteries ordered Bernard, the performance you'll get with that is more than adequate. Thanks advice taken |

as Super-Shiny said the igo-L is a great dripping atomizer! at a great price (picked up one myself last week and haven't put it down) The octopus is a cool looking RDA but is a little small. The nimbus is another great RDA with holes in the centre posts for the wires to go through making re-wicking that little bit easier Thanks B. |

Haha I get what you mean, I am using efest imr 800mah 18350's which are pretty universal quite happy using it in 18350 single mode atm till I get some 18650s Are they the nipple top or flat top, just thinking that if they are nipple top when the bottom cap is screwed on they are a tad to long and shorting out on the bottom cap as they are compressing the spring too much, just thinking outside the box Yes they are the nipple top, thats is what must be happening screwed down all the way the spring is very compressed. |

You was spot on +1, it was too tight, loosen it up a bit and works fine, it appears that the vamo v3 doesn't like stacked 18350's jeffc thanks will bare that in mind will order a couple of 18650's ASAP Thank you Its the other way round - your batteries are too big, not all batteries are exactly the same size. You will probably find if you had a different brand they would be on the loose side. So please don't make the mistake of blaming the poor old vamo.

If you want a good throat hit with plenty of flavour I would recommend the cool vapes USA red mix or the Virginia 18mg, for some reason it is very strong and gives a huge throat hit, the USA mix has a slightly smoother nutty tastes but is not as harsh, I didn't like the Virginia it has a very strong tobacco taste, almost knocked me backwards lol coolvape.co.uk/coolvape-original/59-virginia.html£2.49 - excluding delivery |

0.00 normally indicates a short, is your battery cap tight? It may be the batteries are a little too big and they are pushing something up inside. You could try it with the cap half unscrewed to check. You was spot on +1, it was too tight, loosen it up a bit and works fine, it appears that the vamo v3 doesn't like stacked 18350's jeffc thanks will bare that in mind will order a couple of 18650's ASAP Thank you |

Hi guys Got my lovely new vamo v3 black chrome in the post today, I have a slight issue. When I put 2x 18350s in it, it gives me low load, the battery's are fully charged and it also gives me a 0.0ohms reading But when I put in 1 x 18350 in, it works fine and reads my igo-L at 2.4ohms I don't quite understand what the problem could be, I have no 18650's at the moment but it has been advertised as working with two 18350s Thanks in advance |

I traded 30ml of GVC for what I was told was Alien Visions Bobas. When it arrived it was Alien Vapor's Bobas which is a copy. I've got about 20mls of it left and have no idea if it tastes anything like the proper Bobas but it's not for me. PM me if you're interested. Oh, I registered on the alien vapors site but realised it wasn't the real deal so never went back. Looking to try the real BB Thanks anyway |

Placing an order for one soon nearly had second thoughts for a micro second, phew! Yeah they should put the fire button on the side or top maybe Edit: with a separate LED obviously |

Tell a lie, i did tamper with the o-rings, had to put tooth floss under the o-rings to make them stick out more as the top cap was too loose after awhile. I did hear they replaced the O rings with stronger black ones because of the issue the red ones were causing After attaching the battery a few drops of juice in and it vapes like a charm. |
