Well, in the last 3 years, I'd estimate close to 5 grand in devices and liquid combine, so not too bad, still way cheaper than analogs. The first month I put about 400 into it before I found what I liked best, trial and error, get something better, trash or give away the old, rinse and repeat until I got it right for me.

I'm encouraged. I'm not the only one to be in the red, comparatively with analogues. I switched to vaping 5 weeks ago, having smoked a pack a day for some 25 years. I guess I am now settled in terms of equipment, with an Evic mod and a range of Manager Evods. Total so far = €350, with backup Ego-t batteries and lots of eliquid to see me through.

Hm...

About $50 for my first stupid cigalike. ~$80 for a go-go kit and maybe $40 more for some extra go-go batteries. ~$250 for a provari, batteries, charger, etc... (Will be spending about $40 to have it fixed, if I ev get around to sending it in). ~$50 for a vamo + $20 more for some 18350 batteries. So about $490. Most of that is already taken into account in my signature.

Recently I've also spent about $100 on some rebuildables and supplies. That is not taken into account in my signature. I don't count expendables like cartos, heads, nicotine, etc...


How long did you have your provari before it broke ?. And how did you break it ?

Hm, well... I got it at around my 6 month mark, I think. I believe I had it at just over a year when the button started acting up. I know it was just out of warranty. I didn't really break it, the button just started acting wonky. Sometimes pressing to vape would put me into the menu, so I'd inadvertently crank up the voltage when I was supposed to be vaping. I tried cleaning it out with alcohol a few times, tried cleaning off the threads, but it didn't help. I definitely wasn't hard on it. Kept it pretty clean, cleaned off the positive post whenever I removed the tank. Carried it around in my purse when i went out. It's been sitting for months now, needing to send it in. I'm not pleased about having to spend $40 (hopefully only $40) to get it fixed. For $40 I could buy An inexpensive mod like a vamo or itaste svd. Something else might not be as sturdy as a provari, but the sturdiness didn't really do me much good. I have a vamo now that I got as a back up for when I was going to send my provari in and I like it just fine. I actually like the menu better.

Well, considering it's only been just over a week I've done some damage...One Pro-Coleman set from Colorado E-Smokes for $119.00 (two tanks and two batteries and a charger), four bottles of 18mg e-oil for $47.00 and a lanyard ($5.00) so I can keep it from being smashed at work. Then Four more bottles of 11mg e-oil. Then the same set as above to have an extra set to vape different oils. Then ordered five different oils in 11mg from Vaperbomb and six from Virgin Vapor all at 11mg. Then two more orders from both of those companies for a total of five more oils in zero nicotine, plus 8 more from Colorado E-Smokes with zero nicotine. Yeah...I better be done for a while, I have e-oils everywhere! :p

Interesting that you sold everything up until you got your first mod. I'm guessing your ego's weren't variable voltage.

Hmmm, probably 400-500. I'm a noob though, and just bought quite a bit this past week. Will probably settle into about 40-80 a month now that I have a provari and a few good tanks. Time to test all the flavors!!!!!!

Yeah its nice that once you find a kit you can settle down with then it's time to hunt down your favorite flavors to settle down with haha. Step by step.
