If it was $75 id still have a hard time buying one, considering its size. I like the idea behind it though and China can make one for $20. Id buy two. But when you consider that a pack of carto's will last me maybe a week, then even $150 makes it seem like a smart buy.

For sure. Until I get my hands on one of those, I'll have to keep on buying my Boges. Funny thing I came across though is, under the Co-Op section, it seems a group of people are all chipping in on the Boge carto's. And the leader is ordering from Heaven Gifts. I cant understand why they just dont go to Boge direct? Hell, thats what I did: (e-mail from Boge)

After $82.00 in shipping, it works out to be $0.66 per carto. A far cry better than their Heaven Gift purchase. I figure 500 carto's at $0.66 is not bad, and should last a few years......

I'm glad I'm going to have both the provari and the pro. It's like choosing a resteraunt one day you want Italian the other Chinese. I can pick the one I want to use at any given time.

I heard that. Truth be known, A ProV is on my Horizon...It will have to wait till X-Mas probably...The Wife will never allow it until then :(

Ya I looked into that also. Just not a fan of the carto anymore. Im into ce2 types now and where a carto left me with 6-24 hours of vape time the Vision Stone 3 has been going strong and the vapor production is hard to beat. Plus no more metal taste. Sorry for hijacking your thread OP.


No Problem...Good conversation is always welcome !!

I seen it. I have all the parts as of today to make my own VV PV. Really want a Z Standard and use the home made one as a back up. Then sell the Provari. I have spent 3x's what I spent on the Provari just to vape it, not including the DIY juice products. Im just not happy with most everything ive tried and I cant keep buying things, so down grading the PV with a 510 connection. Its just not worth it anymore. Ive been on the vape for 5 months and already spent over a grand. Time to take a step back and reevaluate. I spent under $50 a month on the analogs.

I can relate. This is getting expensive. Between me and the wife, we were spending $60 every 5 days on a carton. The math told us over $3,000.00 a year. We both started to Vape March 2nd and we both have not had an analog since then, but the learning curve has not been cheap. It's really hard not to try all the different paraphernalia out there, trying to find whats right both in terms of the perfect vape and cost efficiency. The way I see it, the disposable Carto/Attie situation is the weak link.

Reading all these forum posts and watching YouTube videos, aint helping the situation any. I love my Boges 2.0 on a simple eGO batt. Cheap but effective. I'm so cheap, I'm trying to clean my Boge's. A funny thing happended the other day, and led me to purchase the Buzz. I was vaping my eGo, on a juice that is really not that great, and after hitting it on a super hot battery, it tasted REALLY good? So I thought to myself...HIGHER voltage must be the key? That little discovery led me to drop $175.00 on a new rig. Geeze I hope the light at the end of the tunnel is near...

Always use the coupon code "ECF Buzzkill", 2 words. Still valid as far as I know.

Over time it really does get better. I've been running about $2/day since last February, buying an original Infinity, Buzz Pro, M1A1 tank, 3 sets of batts for each, cartos. I DIY, but vape 6.5 ml/day, my eliquid cost is included in that $2/day. The base hardware is $0.8 - $1/day, and the cartos/eliquid have run $1 - $1.2/day total. Even vaping purely vendor eliquid, say $2.50/day, carto brings it to $3/day (4 days on a carto), long term cost is about $4/day.

(Yes, DIY eliquid really is that much cheaper -- not for everyone, but if you have the knack/interest it really cuts running cost.)

Much thax, I did...ordered on the 10th

Waiting on that all important "Your order has shipped" e-mail !!!

I am going to go the DYI juice really soon. I am lucky to have a DYI supplier near by, so I dont have to pay shipping cost. I'm vaping around the same amount as you. It's still way cheaper than old school granted. My wife is a bit more picky about what she will vape than me, and that's my biggest hurdle...

Good diy is as good as anything commercial, it is just whether you have the patience/desire to pick it up. A lot of us post recipes, in part to help others pick particular flavors that have a good chance of working well.

Good tobacco DIY has been hard for me to come up with... Fruits and pies... easy. Tobaccos, I cannot find the right ingredients I guess. I read alot about several additives, but they never produce the results that I want.

I DIY and have been using ikenvape atomizers since last November. I can't remember the last time I've spent a penny on vaping. DIY juice is super cheap (plus you know exactly what you're putting in to your lungs) and ikenvape attys last forever.
