How much have you spent on devices to date ?

[Myrany]

I wont even say - everyone would think I had a mental disorder

I wouldn't say that. I think in a way after a certain point the addiction aspect and quitting smoking are not the factor anymore. vaping becomes sort of a hobby. How much money do people spend on hobbys?

I know I have spent $3000 on a good sewing machine before. We won't even talk about the rest of the gear

I 've been looking at the vamo recently. I think provari is just a well built mod, where as the vamo does things the provari doesn't. The vamo will check the ohm's of whatever vapour device you attach and it is variable wattage too. The provari is variable voltage only. Plus the vamo is much, much cheaper.

i have looked at those also, may grab one in the future. but after yesterday.. i dropped my vision spinner 1300mah and the button jammed in (i was able to pop off the top and fix it fortunately!) if the fix wouldnt have worked then i would have had no choice but to toss it in the trash (its only a month old)..same with the vamo no warranties. so i made up my mind after that, as much as i spend on this stuff, i would love to have a safety net of a warranty and being able to send in for repairs even after warranty expires..saving up for provari i am lol

I'd hate to say as much, but I can say when you spend on one thing, you end up buying all these accessories to go with it and it all adds up

-_-

Naw, i must stay the pics of your hardware ive seen around here are awesome, im envious.

what kills me is juice as well, in two and a half months ive probably picked up over 50 flavors from 7 to 8 different venders. i have the "gotta try it all" syndrome. which is adding up quickly.

 

[dspin]

Hey Sly, try and get sample packs first. I spent a massive amt of money in last three yrs chasing juices. I started out needing double flavor with all, then when taste buds came back I got more descriminating.

Have it down to just several companies for select juices. All must be extracted now and a few are organics.

 

[Pucancakes]

I hope my vaping won't get out of control like my past hobbies lol

 

[Alexvac]

$5.00/pack as of 13 months ago..

Yea I was looking at closer to $9, I guess it gives me the ability to justify higher ecig expenses so atleast there was one upside haha.

 

[evan le'garde]

I don't regret buying anything though.

A lot then..........

 

[MonkInsane]

LOL, this is going to sound ridiculous, But I've spent R1098 ($120) since last week.

I only started vaping last week, bought a Ego-T which turned out to be a knock-off for R399, it failed after 2 days and didn't work so well from the start. Then bought a genuine Joyetech Ego-C Upgradewith a Pleco Clearomiser for R397. Then got tired of having to recharge every day so I bought an JoyeTech eGo Monster Battery (2600mAh) for R300 to use as my primary device, with the Ego-C Upgrade as backup.

I've been vaping for only a few months, but I'd say around $400-$500 so far! Worth it.

That's progress !

 

[Kycap]

I dread to think - way more than i did on ciggies - experimentation costs..... do not regret 1 penny of it to be honest.

At least i am breathing better !

 

[Cha0s13]

Oh lord, I just ordered a mini provari.....

 

[Windz1]

Oh geez. . .I thought vaping was going to save me money?!?!?!
I never bothered to calculate everything to date. . .so this will be interesting. . .her it goes. . .

eGo 650 Starter Set = $80
1 extra 650 battery = $20
2 eGo Twists = $60
iTaste MVP = $65

Oh lord, I just ordered a mini provari.....

I know the pain and pleasure. I ordered an eVic yesterday. . .shipped same day. . now just waiting! . . oops. . got sidetracked. . .

eVic = $85 (discounted for an unboxed kit.)

Accessories (here's the bulk of my purchases though)
6 Vision Vivi Nova STV = $72
Extra Attys for Novas 1.8ohm & 2.4 ohm (I tend to overbuy on the chance case I burn out) = $40
6 drip tips (2 knuckleheads, 2 derlin, and 2 ceramic) = $25
3 V4 clearomizers (still have em, just don't use as much anymore) = $30
5 30ml liquids (remember. . I buy in bulk so I never run out. . .I'm set for 6-8 months!) = $100
2 carry cases for eGo set = $20



forget it! . . I never was good at math anyway!

 

[Risenterror]

600. Crap starter kit and then straight to Provari and a mini

much...

 

[Azaelius]

Nothing yet... about $150 as soon as the one I want comes in XD

 

[Statistic]

2 eGo 1000mah XXL's - $45
Several clearomizers and a couple Vivi Nova's and extra heads for them all - $45
A few U-DCTs and extra cartos - $45
VAMO v2 - $50
Batteries and charger - $60
AGA-T+ and IGO-L - $40
Wire, wick and mesh - $40
Rebuilding and organizing supplies (tools, tool bag, multi-meter etc) - $130
2 Vision Eternity RDA's - $35
2 650mah eGo starter kits + juice to gift to two friends interested in quitting the stinkies - $40
Assorted juice - $120

So in the neighborhood of $650 in a little over 2 months, including juice (why oh why did I just add this all up, lol).
Looking back I no doubt spent half of that finding out what I didn't like as much as what I like. At this point I'm more than sufficiently set up to only have to spend money on juice for a looong time to come. While I'm glad I got the experience of using and learning all about various tank types I now have no use for them as I've seen the RBA light. So I won't be spending another dime on clearos or cartos or replacement parts for them, and will most likely gift or lend a lot of my unused gear to help others see the light.

I might break even this year, if not I'm still not spending a dime on tobacco so it's well worth it to me. I'd be able to break even in another month easy if all I buy now is juice but I'm still afflicted... I'm on the hunt now for another couple nice RBAs and a mech mod (or two) and of course they're gonna need their own batteries!

When you think about what you've spent on vaping and what you still want to spend on it take a moment to consider where that money would have gone and how many stinkies you would have consumed otherwise.

VAPE ON!!

 

[BlackChad]

$300 in maybe 26 months of vaping for everything but juice. Including the mech mod im about to buy in a coop. /brag
