Did I go overboard on my first setup?

[Completely Average]

So I decided on a whim to finaly dive in. Smoked a pack every 2 days. I picked up my setup 2 days ago and tried to smoke analog this morning and it tasted gross. So I think its working. Everyone I have recently talked to and the shops I visit are astounded at my first set up. They are like wow you jumped in head first.

Did I really go in to deep right off the bat? I ended up dropping around $420 cdn on everything. I was worried that the wife would give me hell but she said even if you spent a grand I dont care as long as you are trying to quit.

So today I ended up buying a Maganus b/ Id like to be able to swith eliquid easily.

Am I going OVERBOARD for being 2 days in? LOL

NO.

I can almost assure you that instead of going overboard you've just saved yourself a ton of money.

The vast majority of us started with either cigalikes or pen-style ego systems. Then went up to some low powered mods. Then went up to higher powered mods. Then moved in to the more expensive mods. At the same time we also went through the same process with tanks. A steady stream of upgrades, with more money spent each time. You went right for the setup most of us took a year or more of gradual upgrades to reach, so while it was a big up-front investment, in the long run you'll probably save hundreds of dollars by not buying a whole bunch of lower-tier stuff along the way.


Now, allow me to give you some advice on that Maganus you just purchased.

There is a company called Freemax that makes the Starre. The Starre and the Maganus are the exact same tanks.

The reason I'm telling you this is because Freemax is releasing Ni200 coils for the Starre that should start showing up in shops either this week or next. You can use these same Ni200 coils in your Maganus as well. You can also use the regular kanthal coils for the Starre in your Maganus, so if you have trouble finding Maganus coils simply look for the Freemax Starre coils instead. The Maganus and Starre coils are far superior to the Atlantis coils.



Now, as for the SnowWolf.

I've got one of those and I absolutely love it. It's small for a dual battery mod, extremely easy to use, and has all of the power you could ever want. Easily the best mod purchase I have ever made.

Well if you have the money to spend, I say you made some great choices. And as others have brought out, this way you don't have to worry about upgrading for a while as what you have are some of the most superior products on the market IMO. I'd say you should be good for a while!

Update

So my 1 month is today. Glad to say I've made it thought the month smoke free but not so much for my wallet. It's still on fire. It was tough at first since I dropped my nic from 6 to 3 after my first week. But dripping and mech/unregulated totally helped. So in my first month this is what I've accumulated not including my vape mail lol. All authentic except the 2 velocity

Start vaping they said. You'll save money they said. All LIES! Lol

Buying good vaping equipment is reinforcing your commitment. You're doing very well so far.

I agree with the above poster, you have actually saved yourself some money.

We've all been in the position of buying something and finding when we get if we are not happy with it. One of the draw-backs about our online age is that products may be immediately accessible to buy, but not to hold or try, and this is especially true of the Vape industry.

As people have said, you may well have saved longer-term because you've not done the constant step-up route that so many of us have - but even if you find you don't get on with the new set-up, or soon start looking for something else, provided that you've learnt from it then you most certainly have gained and not lost.
