How much have you spent on devices to date ?

I first started buying from Tececig.. because there's a local tececig store here. I hadn't done any research really so I didn't know there were more cost effective products out there. Their set up's are quite pricey. I probably spent $120. Then I started ordering from the internet. I like the kr808d automatic. So it's a pretty cheap set up. You just need a few batteries and a recharger. So about $30 bucks there if you order online. Every couple of months I have to by replacement cartomizers.. those run $9.99 for five online. And e-liquid which I spend about $14 bucks a month online. (two 30ml bottles.)
For that same amount of stuff from tececig it would cost me 90 bucks just for the liquid and cartomizers. Pretty big difference.

My first was $110 OTD with a MVP/iClear30 kit and 50ml of juice. Then i bought a few more items within the first two weeks.

About $155 max in hardware at retail pricing. I could have started much cheaper but i liked the MVP/iClear30 kit the instant i saw it and the Pro Tank II locally was about the same price as online. This also includes a $14 Jomo mini pro tank clone and a $10 X8 clone. Plus a few extra wicks/coils.

I think that is great considering the savings after almost 20 days vs analog costs and ive got a LOT of juice left. I went overboard on my first real purchase but i did not want to do it over again for a long time.

humm lets see $50 on the crappy starter kit my impulse purchase 2 evod batteries and 2 evod bottom feeder tanks at brick and mortar so another $62 so $112 on hardware so far...LOL its funny because quitOmeter says I saved 111.02 by not smoking so far and that doesnt count the juices (around $95 so far) guess I'd better slow down for a bit. I am happy with my EVODS as far as equipment goes and am progressing in finding a few ADV's so I should start saving $$$$ soon .

You what ?:laugh:..:facepalm: !!!!!

Too much. I started about 4 months ago with a lava tube, some cartos and a tank.

Then i went and got a Provari, Provari Mini, Poldiac Uma, 4 Protanks, a mmvapors genesis tank, 4 Atmistiques drip tips, 2 Scuba tanks, 2 divers and a ithaka. Not to mention the various batteries, charger, kanthal, juices etc.

Its fun though :laugh:

I started in may, and have spent in the region of about 250 USD (R2500 ZAR)
Started with cheap chinese ego knock-off.
Got proper Ego-T x 2
eVic with easy head
Innokin iTaste vv
innokin SVD (Current)

The cost above excludes clearomizers!
Clearomizers I bought a lot! Too much to mention here. What I will mention is
3 x protank minis, 2 x protank 1, and 1 x protank 2. Then also a vivi nova (major junk!!! Stay away).
The rest are hands full of T2's and evod carts that went with the ego batteries.

I just received an order for 36 protank coils. Should last me a while, so next month I only buy juice! I think my expenditure will drop from here on.

Actually I've easily spent more on juices and tanks and associated equipment (cartos, replacement heads, hole punchers, drip tips, storage solutions, etc).

Joyetech eGo-T vv upgrade kit $60
Joyetech eGo 1000mAh vv upgrade FREE
Joyetech eGo 650 mAh vv upgrade $15
eGo 350mAh battery $10
Itaste MVP $45
eGo-C Twist $25
Itaste MVP 2 preorder $50

So $205 on batteries/mods

So I've spent almost three times what I've spent on devices (batteries and mods) than I have on all the other stuff. Is that normal? :unsure:

I have enough juice and supplies to last a long time though.

I expect if a vaper buys ready made e liquids then the cost of that would easily exceed costs for hardware. In most cases anyway. Unless a vaper just keeps buying loads of different bits of hardware all the time.

I don't even know... To be honest, I have spent more money on mods and things since I quit by a long shot. But I guess I got bit by the mechanical mod/rda bug right now. Once I complete my collection (which is hopefully soon :p), I am sure I'll save some money in the long run. But my health and the fact that I indeed feel better is worth it in its self right now. I can definitely breathe and run better.


:toast:......

That's me. I think about 5% of my day is spent reading, and browsing gear on fasttech.
Now about that Trident rebuildable... guess i should put that in my basket... :D
