The Vamo as mentioned in the introduction is a very versatile variable voltage, variable wattage / power electronic cigarette. Very affordable too compared to other mods in this league.
Other similar vapour cigarettes are more than twice its price and more complex to work with.
Where the Vamo wins is in its simplicity. 3 buttons in all to allow for far more logical operation of the standard settings that many people will use.

The Vamo
2 small buttons that are used to increase or decrease the voltage.In the meantime when you press and hold each of them, will give you a different reading.
Press and hold the right button for 3 seconds as you are looking at the screen which will give you the atomizer resistance. Very handy when you are re-wicking or rebuilding your own atomizers.
Press and hold the left button for 3 seconds and you will get a reading indicating how much power is left in the battery before it needs recharging.
Press and hold the 2 small buttons together for again 3 seconds and you can switch the device from variable volatge to variable wattage / power
Can't be any simpler for such an advanced device.

Vamo's clear LCD screen
The large button is used for your usual vaping and also to switch the device on/off through 5 click function.
Other devices in its league (well to me at least) are more complex and more tedious to work with such as the Vmax, Zmax and the much more expensive Provari which is way out of my budget. I personally cannot see myself paying over $200 for a vapour cigarette where others are far less. Yes, the Provari is very well made no doubt about it, functionality to me is a bit of a let down specially after the introduction of the Vamo. Why you may ask? I will explain.
The Zmax, Vmax and Provari all work with one button that does all the functions which means that you will be forever pressing the button on average about 7 or 8 times to just change a setting like voltage up by one notch or down.
First you have to press the button 3 times to get into the menu, then another time to reach the particular menu you want. So say you want to change power. 3 times to get to the menu, 3 times to get to the 4th menu then another few times to change the voltage up or down. Each press on the voltage menu will increase the voltage by 0.1v at a time. So if you want to increase the voltage by 0.1, you will have to press the button a further 4 times to reach it. You can do the maths and see what i mean.

The Zmax has i think around 8 menus while the Vmax has 6.
As opposed to the Vamo, all you have to do is press the small button and with each click you will increase the voltage by 0.1v or 0.5w at a time.

The Vamo has a 510 fitting which as many of you know will fit a host of atomizers such as a native 510, eGo, eGo-T, eGo-C, Vision eternity, Venus eternity, Cobra, Genesis, CE4, CE5, the list goes on and on.
It also has a deep drip well to catch any leakage that comes off some atomizers, cartomizers, etc...

Another big adavantage of the Vamo is you can configure it to 2 sizes. A standar size at 135mm and shorter version at 105mm.
At the standard size you can use the Vamo with 1x 18650 battery or 2x 18350. On the shorter version you can use 1x 18350 batteries. Another advantage that no other Mod will offer currently on the market today. I must admit the Vamo is a heavy piece of equipment but you will soon get used to it.

Vamo short version
The Vamo also works very well with the Vision or Venus eternity which are rebuildable atomizers. The fact that the Vamo has the facility to detect atomizer resistance which means you can build the atomizer and test the resistance and make changes before you finish the atomizer off.
The Vamo allows the user to alternate methods used internally to calculate the voltage output. The default and recommended setting is RMS. RMS provides a more accurate voltage output. The Vamo may also run in Average (or Mean) mode. Average mode may result in output voltages than displayed. To switch modes, hold either the power up or power down button for 10 seconds. The display screen will display N01 for AVG mode or N02 for RMS mode. To change the mode, release the adjustment button then press and hold for an additional 10 seconds to change to the alternate mode.
The downside of the Vamo i'ld say is its size. It is not a small item and neither it is light to carry around but soon you get used to it and makes an ego 900mAh ecig feel like feather in your hand.
In conclusion i personally think the Vamo is excellent value for money given the facilities it offers and the 2 variety of sizes.
Vape on!
A standard Vamo kit comes with the device itself, 2x 18350 batteries and a twin charger that will charge either 2x 18650 or 2x 18350 batteries or a combination of both. Great value for money.
The Vamo is available at quite a few websites including vapourettes.com
