Silica Wick & Kanthal Wire guide/starter kit suggestions..??

I don't know about the vamo because i've not had one but most rda's sit flush when 510 mounted. As for looks, they come second place with me, practicalities first, get a good vape. Looking at images of the vamo v5 it looks to me like the igo w-4 or other similar atty would sit flush on the outer wall/ring on the top.

Nah.. its one of them school of crap design thingys lol.. the 501 threaded post bit in the center of the Vamo5 sits a good 2mm higher than the top ring thingy (beauty ring..??) and even though the Vamo is 22mm diameter the top of the ring tapers in to about 20mm.. a Protank3 is only 18mm diameter and sits 2/3mm-ish off the top.. it all works well but just looks a bit shite compared to mechanical mods I have seen..

Stealth vape do an OCD ring which is basically a 22mm diameter St/St washer to fill the gap, works on earlier Vamos without the taper but would not sit neat with the taper and an 18mm tank.. heres a link so you can see what I am trying (badly) to explain..

So I need a 22mm RDA and a OCD ring or the perfect solution for ALL V5 owners would be if somebody sold an untapered 22mm top collar/ring thing that was 2mm taller with an inner shoulder & all tanks would fit loads neater..


If only I could use a lathe.. this time next year I could be a millionaire lol.. ;)
 
Damn yeah, that atty without the collar sits bad, I wouldn't like mine that way, looks like it could break. On the other hand, an RDA is not very big or clumsy so probably not altogether a bad choice to put on there, compared to something with a tank which has a lot more weight above the thread. If that collar/ring fits your device you would do well to get if only to support what you have sitting on top, even it's not the prettiest.
Why can't they get these things right ? I have the itaste mvp & almost none of my attys will make contact with the centre pin. I have to use an ego thread To 510 adapter which makes the whole thing way clumsy. I'll get round to remedying it some time. I prefer my mech !

If all else fails, get a nemesis, a pair of decent 18650 batts & a good charger. End of issue.
 
I have 2 x 18350 and a charger already.. so that may be the way I will in the not to distant future..
 
The Vamo collar u can just stick an Oring under and tanks suit flush regarding wire to start off .2 .25 and .3 will get you going and once start getting the hang of it flat kanthal is good to play with and I go with the eqivelant of the prior mentioned.
