I have saved so much money in the last 2 months to pretty much buy whatever mods or apv I want. But instead I am using a eGo T 650 mah, with a pt2. When I first got it, after switching from volts tiny cig-a-likes, I was in heaven. Come to find out after I learned soooo much from ecf, this is one of the smallest batteries. I am dieing to get a mvp 2 that ive had my eyes on for awhile now, but the way life is going, even though I save money everyday, it seems like ill be stuck with this small ego forever :(

Look at it this way at least you aren't smoking. Things would be even worse if you had to shell out all that money for cigarettes. With vaping you also have an option to save even more money. Try mixing your own juice. You can start with very little money by ordering unflavored nicotine juice and a few flavors then adding them to the juice in small 2 millimeter bottles. Fruit flavors are the easiest to start with because they work best as single flavor juice. You can do this dop by drop or get a $1 needle for more precision. Although other vapors may have suggestions for an easy tobacco flavor.

You can get an ego VV 1000mAh for about $12 from fasttech. I just got one and the 510 threads are a little sloppy at the top of the threads but tightens fine.

Something with a replaceable battery like the SVD makes more sense financially in the long run. Though it costs an extra $35 (batteries and charger) or so on your initial purchase, replacement batteries are about $10.

DIY liquids will save a lot too.

Better yet, Fasttech has the iTaste VV V3.0 for $24.88 with free (if very slow) shipping. So for 25 bucks your getting variable voltage, variable wattage, an ohm checker, short protection, over discharge protection, a puff counter and you can vape it as a pass thru while the battery is charging.

Only comes in white but the price is right for A LOT of feature functionality. I paid $45 two months ago at a local B&M and I love it.

I am sure it will not be forever. Maybe have a little more positive outlook? You enjoyed your ego until you read of other things.
There is no reason to not still enjoy your ego.
Not everyone upgrades. The important thing is that your not using analogs.

Pros:
Free shipping on most products
Discount prices (easy on the wallet)

Cons:
There are very long shipping times with Fasttech
Chances are you will most likely get a poor quality clone that may cause you problems in the long run

Save your money for a few more months and do what I did. Buy a Provari, a few batteries and a charger, a few IBTanked tanks and some cartomizers...and never buy anything again other than fluid and replacement cartomizers.

It'll be the best vape experience and money saving way to vape in the long run.

Good luck!

I agree with the itaste vv3. It's a great battery and since it has a usb passthrough, you can vape while charging which was a big thing for me at the office.

I'm going to have to say nay to Fasttech though. They sell imitation product. I had two mini protanks from them that failed within four weeks. The tanks developed stress cracks. I should have bought the Mini Protanks 2 with removable glass, that way they may not have cracked. It's obvious they didn't use pyrex glass in the tanks.

Buying atomizer heads or tanks is one thing. Buying something like a Li-Ion battery is completely different. My safety is more important than the 10 to 20 bucks I could save.

I got my one of my itaste vv3's here, and it had an authenticity sticker on the box that I verified at Innokin's website as authentic.

Patience, enjoy the vape. The whole point for many of us was to get off the cigs, sounds like you accomplished that! Anything past that is just the cherry on top! I'm still using the starter kit I purchased about 9 months ago (it was overpriced, but I can't say I paid to much since I haven't smoked since I got it). No more cigs, woulda been a steal at double, triple even 10x the price.
