sorry not trying to blow up this thread. but what mg do you vape. one thing you could consider is going up in strength and thus vaping less. within reason of course. some dont like the harshness of TH at higher nic levels
healthier than chainsmoking >50 cigs/day.
what r the health concerns to vaping?
I start at 12mg last July and recently change to 6mg. Ya, I don't like the harshness of TH. I think I vape more not because of the nic but the flavor, really enjoying the flavor...
15 ml of 3 mg per day here. I spend a little less vaping than smoking most months if I stay away from hardware I don't need.
I usually fill up 3 Kayfuns every night and they last me all day. I DIY so what I do is make a purchase every 6 months for my PG and VG and nic and thats usually around 65 dollars.
I have enough cotton and wire to last me years. My motto is if I can't rebuild it ...I don't use it. can't bring myself to my replacement coils anymore. I do make a yearly purchase for my batteries also..that runs about 50 dollars so vaping is really costing me around 180 dollars a year.
When I was smoking my yearly cost would have been 1800! YIKES!

I always felt ripped off when I bought liquids, so I started to make my own. That not being my cup of tea - I decided to meet in the middle and buy pre-mixed concentrates of my favorite liquids.
How much it costs you is all down to how much effort you make towards saving money. I pay more than your average DIY folks... But still waaay less than the 'gourmets'.
Nic base is cheap. I don't use a lot of flavorings. As such, I find it ridiculous to pay ridiculous amounts of money for liquids that are so over saturated with flavorings that I almost can't vape them 'as is'.
And... well... some random person shaking the bottle for me isn't worth 20x the price - to me.
Oh.. Roughly 3-7 ml a day of 18 mg/ml. Usually on the lower end.

I smoked 1-2 pack per day.. Lets do the math with just 1 pack That's 5.25 per day X 365 = $1916 per year, Vaping $150 startup Plus 6ml per day @ 1445 per year first year.
Vaping is 25% less cost,, figure I get it down under 50% if I DIY the juice.

I've never kept close count of how many ml's of juice I vape a day or month, but based on many posts in this thread, I've got be about 3/4 of the way to quitting vaping. Yet I have some people comment that I am continuously hitting my pv. Go figure.
4 ml per day.
Now I'll try to calculate my spendings.
For liquid: $0.03 per ml. $3.60 per month. And I slightly exaggerated my costs on liquid...
Other recurring costs:
2 premade coils from FT - $0.11 per month
Cotton Its tough. Lets say it is $0.10 per month
Total for my vaping recurring costs: $3.80 per months.
I have bought nothing in 5 months. I have used only Vamo ($30) and atti ($9) which came with 2 protank coils (rebuildable). They will last more than 5 months, but lets just suppose I need a new vamo every 5 months. So, price for hardware is 39/5 = $7.80 per months.
So, my total monthly spending on vaping is less than $11.60 per month.
But of course I spent some money on things I do not need Aerotank, RBA, RDA Some other stuff and flavorings.

Recently found a site called Nude Nicotine. I bought a 500ml bottle of premixed flavorless liquid for $29 with shipping. You can specify your PG/VG and Nic. Then spent around $15 on a few flavors from a different shop. Im trying to use the least amount of flavor I can, I like the idea of inhaling a simpler vape made of fewer components. This comes out to about $0.09 per mL! I didn't want to go full DIY because I don't want the hassle or danger of having such a pure product in the home. Its pretty easy to add a bit of flavoring to taste, however. That $45 purchase should last me over 3 months.
I can't even shop flavors at my B&M now because the price seems so ridiculous by comparison.

15ml a week, but I make my own and buy in bulk, so I probably spend about $2.00 a week on my juice. Now of course I keep finding new toys that I "need" to have so that part adds up. Overall spending less then I did when smoking. But making your own will help on costs quite a bit.
I DIY all my juice so a 30 mil bottle costs me about a nickel to make. I generally go through 15-30 mils a day depending on if I'm working or not
I get my nicotine and flavoring from nude nicotine. But I find it's cheaper to buy PG and VG from Amazon. Costs roughly $30 a gallon
I seem to be vaping about 10ml a day at 10 watts.
I buy a lot of bottles of glycerin.......let's see: I count...........about 15 100ml empty bottles; I should throw out about 10 of those I guess;
a year ago, I was vaping about 3 to 5 ml a day at 5 watts.
