Quit on New years eve with one of the "FREE STARTER KIT"- SCAMS.
But it DID keep me going for almost a month :)
Got a Ego set from LF for 40$ last week in January (about 60$ with some juice )
Then bought a PT and more juice--about 60$ order.
Have 2 1000mah batteries and atty's coming -40$ or so order.
Just ordered a Riva kit from LF (30$) + juice = 60$
3 or 4---50$ +or- juice orderers from var. vendors. (Still looking for "THE ONE" )
AND ordered one of Bradsmiths box mods last night with 3 extra jugs of juice 42$.(WHAT A DEAL !!!)
Probably a few i have forgot:(
Guessing close to 500$ to this point.
Spent about 8$ a day on analogs 1 1/2 packs or so.
In the hole a bit at this point VS anlogs--BUT feel better -SMELL better--so worth it so far.
 
I've been using the ego kit for about a week now. I picked it up from GotVapes for the Valentines day sale. I've been vaping for a month and half now and have spent $210 on gear and liquid. I started off with a TigCig 402 kit from bigboxstores.com because it was really cheap, and I decided I liked it. After a week I ordered sample kits from JC and began experimenting with refilling carts and eventually the drip method which I prefer now. I've actually saved $150 so far. I went through 2-3 batteries during a work shift so I bought the ego and am very happy with it. I'm extremely glad that I don't smoke anymore. Health concerns, and at $9.85 a pack it was really hurting my pocket. I like vaping more because of the flavor choices available.

1.How many of you have bought the EGO kit?
- Bought my eGo kit from Puresmoker to have as both a backup PV, and for a "discrete vaping" alternative to my primary PV, an AltSmoke BB.

2.How much money have you spent already for vaping?
- I have no idea about any actual number, but I'm definitely saving a fair amount, monthly.

3.Are you happy that not smoking enymore and instead vaping?
- Without a doubt.

First off, welcome to ECF.

1.How many of you have bought the EGO kit?
I think there are only about 5 or so. But they have a lot of usernames created and are very vocal. :)

2.How much money have you spent already for vaping?
man, I don't even know how to count that one. But probably less than I would have for tobacco.

3.Are you happy that not smoking enymore and instead vaping?
Yes!!! Very.

I bought the batteries and atties separately as I was "upgrading" my 510...I basically paid for separate pieces for what I could've gotten cheaper just buying a kit itself. Still love my purchases though. I've been vaping on an actual eGo setup since October or November of last year. I've spent close to $800 probably since I started vaping last August. Compared to constantly buying cartons of analogs, I've definitely saved. I'm ecstatic about vaping. Can't stand analogs anymore.
 
1.How many of you have bought the EGO kit? I purchased mine Feb 16, 2011
2.How much money have you spent already for vaping? Probably $80 on the eGo and the accessories i got when I bought it. And probably another $30 so far in juice, but I just started this.
3.Are you happy that not smoking enymore and instead vaping? Everyone in my house is glad I quit smoking!


I started with a FUMA given to me by a friend and was on my way to the tobacco shop for refills and found AltSmoke just 4 doors down in the little plaza. Went in and talked to Rob and the crew and tried a few "toys". Went back the next day and bought the ego. Still smoked analogs with the Fuma but quit completely when I upgraded to the ego.

1. I just received my ego yesterday from route66 for $60 - Originally I ordered a green pv for $150 carto only and it worked enough to drive me insane! :I
2. I've ordered boge carto's, carts, drip tip and juice. approx $100
3. I only have 24mg because I thought I'd need that to make the switch, but it's way to strong for me. (I smoked marlb lt, but often) so I'm hoping the 12mg I ordered will be the ticket. I'd rather vape more than choke-lol.

I can't wait to quit! Ordered from KBV today-very excited.

They are basically like cartomizers that don't have any stuffing in them so they don't get singed, plus they are see-through so you can see how much juice is left in them. I got the XL ones : FLüXomizer™ 510 Clearomizer : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more (if you think that's cool google map tanks!)

I also want to try the smart carts; they are like little tanks made for use with your regular 510 atomizer: GotVapes SmartCart .9ml Clear Tube Cartridge for 510 Atomizers [gotvapes-510smartcart1ml] - $4.99 : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more



Those are really cool. Thanks for all your help Rosa! What do I need from my ego510 to use one? Just the bat? Also, do they have any negatives?

I bought my EGO kit 2 months ago(125$) and ever since i have not touched analog. I killed my first atty in 3 days :laugh:. After that i some extra atty from GH1(pack of LR510 and pack of regular 510) for 30$ and aluminium wide mouth drip tip for 1.49$. I didnt want to deal with carts anymore and started dripping. Few weeks ago i found even better solution, the clearomizers. I ordered pack of these from cloud of vapor for 13$ and aslo found that they sell ego button protectors and ordered these too 1$. Have already spent 85$ for juices. Overall i have already spent 256$ and i am happy i quit smoking.

1. I have an eGo system. Two standard 650 mah batteries, and 1 PT 650 mah battery.
2. About 200$. But now that I'm set up, I only need to keep buying juice and cartomizers. I'm trying the clearomizers as soon as they get in, or I'll probably stick to the LR Yeti cartomizers from altsmoke. I just got a batch of juice in the other day. Soon I'll pick about 4 or 5 of my favorites and start getting those in higher volume.
3. I don't mind smoking. I enjoy it. But it's best that I got off of tobacco when I did. Probably saved me from future health problems. But I really enjoy vaping. I wish it wasn't so expensive though. People here that were 1+ Packs a day smokers probably save a lot of money. But I usually bought 2 packs a week (~$16) or more likely, an ounce of rolling tobacco a week (~$11). I haven't smoked in 6 weeks. So I've saved at least 66$ off of tobacco, but spent 200$ on vaping (but that includes startup costs)

Leggo my eGo!

I have an original eGo-T kit, and a few bottles of juice

that is it, 2 650mah batteries, 2 eGo-T attys, 5 tank style end pieces and the charger

so far.. so pretty good, have not really needed anything else yet.

Batteries last me all day, I go though about a tank/cartridge a day, ( maybe a tad more )

But I try to vape no more often than I smoked

I have an ego t kit as well as 510 reg and LR attys and can't say enough about what this device has done for me. I pretty much just use the tanks simply for ease of use, but occasionally break out my 510s when I want to try new flavors.

As for cost, I have probably spent about $375 in the last month, but that's just because I got the starter kit, replacement attys and batteries, and tons of juice. But now I am probably good to go except for maybe juice for at least 3-4 months, so well worth it. Love my ego!!!

Started with the NJoy NPro. Then added RN4081 parts through Totally Wicked. Then moved on to the V4L KR808D. Got tired of all the hassel with vaping then. Came back about 4 months ago, and got the eGo. Soooooo much better. Now have the eGo-T, and am still evaluating it. Over the entire 2 year period I've probably dropped around $1000, including juice. Except for adding juice occasionally, I'm pretty much set. Expensive journey, but vaping beats analogs any day, any way.

I started vaping a little over a month ago. A co-worker brought in a mall-cig 3 piece 510 to let me try, I really didn't like it much. I did a little googling and ended up ordering a kit from V4L. I really liked the convenience of the 2 piece design. I bought a few juices and cartos, then more KR8 batteries. Then I got some CE2 clearomizers and more juice. The short CE2s weren't lasting so I ordered some XLs. Got tired of having to carry extra batteries so I got an eGo PT. I had to get the 510 to KR8 adapter to use with my CE2s.

I really like the setup I have now...The battery life on the eGo and XL CE2 will get me thru the day at work and I can always use the short cartos on the KR8s when discretion is needed. I think I'm good on hardware. Now to find that perfect juice...

I've spent well over $200 in that month, but haven't had an analog since the V4L kit arrived. I've spent more on this than I would have on cigs since I can get off brand cigs for <$30 a carton at the reservation store. But I figure it's worth it for my health.
