Name: Kanger Hypertank
Description: Bottom Coil Clearomiser 5ml
Price: 10-20 but coming down as this is getting on
Other Costs (Postage): yes
Comments: Like the Evod - they take the same Coils. Glass tank, so no need to fear tank cracker liquids. Single Coil head screws in from the bottom and is replaceable. Coils can be 'dry burned' to increase service life. Keep the base, and top, replace the coil.
Where to buy: Lots of places

Name: Vamo V5
Description: VW/VV Mod, Ego and 510 threads
Price: 25-50 depending on copy or not, bare unit or incl batteriess, charger, presentation case, a couple of clearos etc
Other Costs (Postage): Yep
Comments: A very popular beginner VV/VW mod. personal choice is the stainless, as it will not scratch like the chrome or black chrome. Wraps are available. Takes 18650 batteries, or the shorter 18350 by removing one section of tube. Has short circuit protection, measures resistance and displays battery remaining voltage. Uses Pulse Width Modulation to average the firing voltage to desired level. Will not fire below 1.2ohm. Fires from 3V to 6V in .5v increments. OLED display, blue. has 2 firing modes - RMS and AVG. Newer units have a better insulated 510 connector. 510 threads can be a problem sometimes. Overall, great budget unit. Can double as a police baton. Replacement PCB's available for $12 from FT - easy repair if it goes US.
Where to buy: everywhere. lookout in the classies for a cheap one.

Name: E-Holly 7-35W Variable Wattage APV Mod
Description: A Vamo for grown ups LOL
Price: US$45
Other Costs (Postage):included
Comments:
The Vamo has brought his bigger brother out to play !!!

Manufactured by the original maker of the Vamo series Shenzhen Kangside Technology Co. Ltd
A good quality brushed SS 26mm mod with a proprietary Yihi SX-300 chip and display Let down a little by the odd diameter sizing which means a lack of flush fitting atties , hopefully Kangside have a plan for 26mm tanks to suit at some stage ... VERY robust , good machining ... a bottom contact spring that is HUGE and wouldn't be out of place on a DC electric locomotive
Chip has performed flawlessly .... top SS b.comty cap can spin off to reveal an ego fitting as well ... nifty if that's your thing !
I have always thought Vamos provided great little entry level mods with more bang for buck than most , this continues the trend into 30 Watt territory for a bit more versatility

I like it
