For my first 2 years of vaping (in Feb 2015 it will be 3, yaay!) i kept looking for new vaping stuff, checking out new mods, clearos, cartos, batteries, etc. Checking out new stuff to buy and try out. Kept buying stuff but shortly after each buy even though i (most of the time) liked what i got, was allready planning on buying something else. It was as if deep inside i wasnt satisfied with what i got.
Then a few months ago, i just stopped.
I dint noticed at the time, but somehow i wasnt so interested anymore in watching reviews for new gear or going thru all the pages in fasttech looking for "cool stuff".

Then a few days ago it "hit me".
I am happy & satisfied with what i got now.
I no longer feel the "need" or even curiosity to search for new gear because i really dont need anything else. And i dont feel it can get much better than this. No matter what else i buy. And besides, unless i wanted to get into cloud chasing (wich i certainly dont), there isnt really something "radically" diferent (e.g. like switching from clearos to rebuildables) for me to try.
Now, i have said this before!, but this time its been a while now (months) that i havent buyed nor do i plan to buy anything else (other than liquids, wick and kanthal of course) so i think this time is for real.

Anyone else reach that point yet?

Yes I am completely satisfied with the gear I have. I even have to much and plan of giving some away to new vapors, stuff I no longer use.

I have a provari and an Innokin iTaste VV V3. Several kayfun lite + V2's and both size Nautilus tanks with the BVC.

So I will be give away 2 eGo batteries, one Vision Spinner 2, 4 Aspire ET tanks and 2 Kanger Mini Pro tank 3's.

I also plan on quitting vaping as soon as I can. Sometime around your 3rd anniversary.

I'm not there but I've only been vaping for 2 months. I have some nice regulated mods, tanks and a Kayfun LP V2 but I don't have a Reo mod yet and expect my equipment desires will end there. The search for the perfect ejuice will always continue and I'm 2 weeks into DIY and always thinking about flavor combos.

I find I am already becoming a bit picky about what I will actually buy... but I am not "there" yet.

I really want to venture into the pipe-mod world as those around me think it would be more fitting (who cares what they think though ;), more importantly I think it will be more my style. For so long I have been one of those guys with 'a cig on the lip' and I work with both hands quite often... so what I wat is a pipe mod that auto fires. I don't mind if I have to draw a little longer or do a prime hit... but I want something that can hang OR be held, replaceable battery, variable wattage, etc... oh and since I am just dreaming... bluetooth connectivity would be an unnecessary plus that I would accept.

So many things to try though and going in different directions... extractions, mixology, coils, mods, etc,... that a lot of stuff to tinker with... and tinker might as well be my first name.

I'm not quite 5 months in. started with an EVOD kit , then went to a provari mini kit-

>Russian 91%
> 1 nautilus mini
> 2 nautilus fullsize
> Magma dripper

on a VS rDNA30 (the provari kit is for sale right now- the rdna30 is superior in many ways IMO). I primarily vape VCV tobacco caramel and VCV lemon raspberry. I use the dripper for tasting new flavors and weekends after a few cocktails (Rye Manhattans and Castle long are really nice in the magma)

Honestly I think I've got all my bases covered. Never had much interest in a mech so I doubt I'll get one. Started with 18mg, now at 12mg. If I really want to get a good nic zap I just turn up the watts on the magma.

I plan on vaping for another year or so... I like it, like being able to do it inside the house. I don't vape at work, don't even take gear with me to the office. I've gone a couple of days without vaping a handful of times since starting. I was never even that much of a smoker- liked keeping control of it instead of the other way around. I like the synergy of nicotine and alcohol. But since I'm not getting loaded all the time, I never feel like I need to be vaping all the time.
