I finally stopped deliberating and just pulled the trigger on my "dream" starter setup!

So I've been in analysis paralysis for a month now, trying to figure out what my "full" upgrade from my iTaste vv v3 w/ about 10 mini protanks/mini protank knock-offs (plus a couple of cheapo drippers, and some non-functioning Aspire BDC tanks) should be. I'm quite strapped for cash, so I was trying to hit the best bang for the buck setup perfectly the first time, lol! :)

Finally, I realized that I was spending *way* too much time trying to decide, and just went all-in to stop the insanity.

So...my next vape mail shipment will be bringing me a sigelei 20w, a brass Stingray clone, a Quasar clone, and a kayfun Lite clone! Super excited to take things to the next level, and just had to share, lol!

Now I'm just hoping the wife doesn't see the bill! I think she figured my Halo starter kit was going to be the total of my vape purchases (as did I), but, yeah, things didn't quite go the way I thought they would, lol...

I'm ready! Bring on the big guns! :D

looks like a decent up grade for sure, but hardly big guns, but definitely a mid rang ground to air vaper. lmao. I have found that the best gear is always Authentic gear. Do have some clones of my authentic collection, some vape quite well, but, tis not the real deal.

To help ease mind about vape expenditures, get a banner counter, so you can see how much hasn't been spent on tobacco, one can quickly justify spending 2 bills on an rba or mod that will provide years of vape.

I probably have 1500 to 2k invested in vape gear. Expensive? Not really if one considers that I would of spent $3300 in smokes if I hadn't started to vape, this last year. So am still $1300 in the black, have a great collection of gear, and enough supplies to vape for the next year or so.

Enjoy the new addition to your collection.

Vape long and Prosper!!!

Yeah, but I was only spending about $25-30/month on smoking, so my new "habit" isn't saving me anything. I'll recoup my startup costs in, I don't know, 2-3 years? lol

Switching to vaping was definitely more about getting away from cancer sticks than it ever was about saving money. I was only saving money until the day that I vaped off of a Provari with a custom cartotank, lol. That was the beginning of the end of my "savings"...

And, of course, I'm probably not even close to stopping my spending spree - there's always more boutique juice, DIY flavors and nic, more atomizers, more rechargeable batteries, and, of course, the next big thing that every serious vaper must have, lol... ;)

After this, though, I'm hoping to slow down a bit. :) Wish me luck!
