Man everyone is sold on this Pico. Gonna have to get one, and see if it's what I want to purchase 10 of. So far I don't really have anything I'm too crazy about. Like my vaporesso Tarot not sure if anyone else does, RX200 is real nice but the 510 connect has me thinking not long term, iSticks are a year old, NEbox is an NEbox, Encom Voidray I actually like a lot and it can be run over by a car... but no one else really has them. And I haven't opened my two Authentic Toptank kits yet.
i have 4 kangertech product-2 nebox +2 topboxs (they are ok),, i also have 4 pico's,,,,,,,,i love the pico's. i have 2 mechs never used.. dreading the day i have to use them,,, and i bet i love them the next day.

Business ventures abound!

Actually, I know no vapers in my area. I get the same response from ALL my smoking friends here when they see me vaping, "Those things are SO bad for you!" I feel compelled to nicely set them straight with the facts but it gets frustrating. They only do it once, but still, I don't rag on them for smoking!
dont you just hate the ignorance of the people educate by 24 year old media brats just trying to make rent with crappy research/plagiarism of obsolete data

Yeah, I just ordered 4 more gallons, one PG and 3 VG just for the price cost before midnight tonight when it goes up by 30% due to many people buying at Essential Depot. Nic is on my next list, at least 2 more liters of 100mg. As far as mods and tanks, none are new and enclosed but 2 have been tested and sitting on the side as back ups (mods). I have 4 RTAs and 2 RDAs. Maybe a couple more to be purchased. Sorry I am not as extreme as one the OP is looking for but hey, it's a start. ;)

I am about to order a Pico. What is the best brand of battery to go with it. I an new at this and have never used a mod with removable batteries.

Thanks

The LG HG2 is a good choice. I'm not good at linking but here is an article about them

I have no unopened mods. It makes no sense not to inspect & test mods when you receive them.

I have a few never been christened mods lying around for later on when I want something new. They're all mechs though. So if for some bizarre reason one doesn't work when I take it out, I can fix it. :)

Well, I just ordered a bunch more nic. I am no where near as prepared as most of you but I am doing what I can. I haven´t had a cig in 10 weeks after 40 years and I don´t care to go back. :pervy:
With enough nic, you're at least 90% of the way there. :thumb:

I'm set for the long haul. 20+ years of nic, 7ish years of PG/VG, about thirty provari's and 10 REOs mods, 5+ years of disposable coils and a lifetime supply of RDA and RBA's, flavor for years and years. Even have a five year or so supply of batteries. That thirteen Grand that I stopped spending on smokes went into durable and expendable goods for my future vape needs, and trust me, I'm still ahead of the game at this point in time even considering my stockpile. Vaping for me going forward is absolutely free as far as I am concerned. If my chest freezer goes belly up and I don't have the cash to immediately replace it, I'll buy a block of dry ice every other week or so...chest freezers are incredibly efficient due to the insulation properties of them, generator is not essential for backup plan there...

    I've been true Vapocalypse vaping for 2 years, when I found what worked perfect for me to stay off smokes ... since then, I've been totally prepared for nothing to be available (no eLiquid, nicotine, mods, tanks, or coils). I knew BG was going to Hijack Vaping to protect BT and BP :glare:

    Batteries, Cotton, Kanthal, PG/VG and food flavouring will always be available ... I'm not worried about the freezer either :cool:

    I've even saved money since quitting smoking ... vaping has become cheaper than a daily cup of coffee for me :blink:

    Wow! You could start a Provari lending library!

    I have 3, and I'm looking for a 4th in the right color. These are all 2.5 minis, so maybe a P3 eventually. And I thought that was a lot!
    Truth be told, four is a lot, me, I guess it's an obsession. I started adopting used ones a couple years ago, and when they started selling them super low priced blems, I just went a lil' cra' cra' :lol:

    Great thread! @WillyZee that provari photo makes me feel better about the 4 minis I recently bought for the dark ages. Until I read all these posts I kept asking myself if I was overdoing it having just finished stocking everything I need for 10 years (except PG/VG of which I only have enough for a few). But then I decided nah! I don't trust ANYONE in government because if they can find a way to screw people they will.

    Besides, when I showed hubby those pictures he stopped bugging me about my stash and all the money I spent.

    I was happy with my three used ones last fall, then caught the same virus.
    A device you truly enjoy, discontinued and available at a blowout price? Irresistible.
    I don't know if there's a cure. I keep checking the specials page for no good reason!
