I'm about 10 weeks in and I think I just inched up over the $1,000 mark. BUT I've got enough equipment and juice to stop spending right now and be good for about a year, buying juice once in a while. Not that I'll do that.... I've got a couple Spinners, a Vamo, a Provari and a cheap Gripper for worst-case-scenario. I have about 2 dozen blank cartos, 5 or 6 vivi novas with about 20 replacement heads, half a dozen drip tips, 4 tanks, 2 solid RBA's with rebuilding materials, a dozen or so batteries, and around 200-250ml of juice. I'm eyeballing a couple mech mods right now, probably pick up a high end one and a lower end one just to have. I'd also like to double my on-hand juice over the next couple weeks.

Yeah, I might be a hoarder....

I started out with two ego 650 pass through batteries, 2 30 ml bottles of juice and a pack of 5 cartomizers @ $65.

I have since spent close to $700 over the last 14 months.
That is $50 a month, less than half of what I spent on stink sticks(analogs) $240 a month.
My wife is happy, I am happy. And happily have saved $2180 over 12 months.

As my habit/hobby grows I may spend less on hardware but am sure to make up for it in juice and consumables.

Overall this has been the most life changing and positive experience regarding vice I have ever had.

Around $2/day, $60 - $70/month, compared to $9/day smoking. Early on I was playing around, trying to see what worked for me, but even then I was only running about $4.50/day, 1/2 what cigs cost where I live. About $1.10/day towards eliquid and cartos/atties, $0.90/day towards next PV or more batteries; right now I'm debugging something that's blowing atties out early, but that's a blip, averages out.

So..of the variable voltage box mods I see, which type do you think is better? Varicool from Smoktek or the MV VV box mod?

I spent about $60 on my ego set a few months ago and since then I've probably spent about the same in replacing clearomizers that were destroyed by certain liquids I was using. I am starting to figure out what I need now and so hopefully my only costs will now be liquid, hopefully $20 or less per month. :) Way better than a pack a day at $150/month!
