obsession

[justrubl]

My husband says I need some help as I am becoming totally obsessed. And in the (very few) sane moments I have to sit still and think I am beginning to wonder if he is right. I got a screwdriver directly from trogg when he first introduced them and put it on ebay and a couple months ago I decided to get back into the ecigs (i had fallen off the wagon during the hurricane) and wanted to start using it again but it broke so I went in search of a replacement. With all the new mods I went a little nuts. I have a jantystick, prodigy, I had the prodigy passthrough which i gave to my mother, a chuck (another on order) 2 ggt's (waiting for one to be delivered), 4 silver bullets and tonight I ordered my 3rd screwdriver (and that is the 3rd replacement for the broken one which my step-dad is trying to repair) I also have a protege on order, and i almost forgot I just got in my new copper and I am just waiting for the wait time to go down a little because I really want a super-t. Someone help me. As an ER RN everyone tells me I need professional help and I am beginning to believe them.

Well, I feel better.

All I do is buy tons of flavors to try mixing different liquids. At least I remain happy so far with the 510.

My justification (and you can use it) is that once I know what I need and what I don't need, I can sell the rest in the classifieds forum.

As long as you can still pay your bills, enjoy! It is better than cigarettes, and an exciting "toy" as well. Maybe you want to trade some flavors for one of those high end e-cigs?

Have fun,

Well you can always use the excuse that your stocking up for the ban.

Ok I'll ask the inevitable question. Which mod do you like best?

Seriously though vaping is your hobby and as long as you have the funds to support it and live comfortably then enjoy. E-cigs are relatively cheap as a hobby. As with any hobby you can never have enough insert hobby item here. That goes double if said hobby is in threat of ban. If people are calling you crazy then you're not hiding your purchases well enough.

i have hid them somewhat...my husband only knows about half of what i own so I am doing something at least kinda right.....but he doesnt care except for the stuff lying around so i need to come up with a better organizational system....as far as which one i like best...i am torn between the silver bullet and the gg....the both work great....but they both have a different time where they are better.....the silver bulllet is great and it is my at home vape but it is a little heavier which makes it more cumbersome at work....the gg is just as great and i use it primarily at work because it is lighter and has the locking mechanism which is better in my scrubs while working in the ER....i do like the screwdriver for when i am doing something active because i can put it on a neck lanyard so no worries about it being in a pocket or dropping it....the chuck is great and i like the personalization to it....the prodigy is ok...but i am not a huge fan of the 5v.....it is too irritating to do much of.......the silver bullet and the gg are my favorites.....it is hard for me to pick one.....i just know that between the 2 of them i have totally quit smoking.....for a while i was mostly vaping but i would have 4 or 5 analogs a day and not i dont even do that.....

Psh, it's a hobby now. you enjoy it. Who cares if it isnt killing you? I know people more obsessed with real tobacco (who roll their own custom mixes etc.) and thats just a hobby for them too.

 

[justrubl]

i do enjoy it....and i feel better and so does my husband....no second hand smoke.....and one benefit for me personally that has nothing to do with how i feel or saving money (which i haven't because i have gone nuts with all the mdos) is as an er nurse i am required to give the quit smoking lecture when a patient comes in and says they smoke....and now i dont feel like such a hippocrite when i do

Perhaps I could make a suggestion on storage. I have been using these Stanley organizer for awhile now. You can pick them up at Home Depot. I have tried these kind of organizers in the past and the minute you pick them up parts from one compartment ended up in another compartment. Not the case with these. I have 2 of them and nothing ever gets mixed up. The panels are modular and secure very well. The lid is clear so you can easily find what you are looking for before opening the lid. For size comparison a standard white box that a 510 starter kit comes in will fit in the smaller compartment with room to spare.

thanks for the suggestion....i have been thinking of getting a small tool box or a tackle box but haven't had a change to get anywhere yet....this looks perfect

You make me feel so much better!! I have a collection that seems to grow by the day.
I first bought a VP-1. Love it! Loved it so much I got another one! Then I got a Janty Stick, then I got a prodigy, then hubby asked what I wanted for my birthday....I got the silver bullet. I have a protege on order and am waiting (not very patiently) for the Xhaler to come out. Also looking really hard at the Super-T. I keep trying to talk myself out of these, but in a weak moment I click the buy button!!! I still use my 901 and 510 and 401 every day. My husband has no idea all I have He know about the juice cause the 2 bottom drawers of my fridge are full!! But I do love it and feel I am set if there is a ban. I feel so much better!! I don't know if I will ever break even in the money department, but thats ok!!

 

[justrubl]

I so want a super t. The main reason I don't have one on order has less to do with wait time and cost as it does being too lazy to go to the bank and get a money order or certified check and then to the post office to mail it. Bad me...Bad me.

Ha Ha!! Me too!!! If I could just click buy now I would have one already!!

 

[mcl5000]

I'm confused. Is the problem that you need a better way to organize them, or the fact that you have no self restraint?

 

[prof beard]

There are a number of answers to your condition:

1 - you have quit smoking - well done! - you are saving money on this and spending it on a new hobby....

2 - you have an addictive personality, this new addiction, whilst much healthier, will ruin your life financially...

3 - if vaping works for you, why not pick a couple of devices, sell the rest and get on with your new, healthy, and (then) financially richer life...

WOW! That is quite a collection you have. Send the extras to me and I will hide them from DH for you.

 

[Applejackson]

I just don't understand why you have multiples of the same mod. You have 4 silver bullets for one vaper in the household? Why? Honestly, there does seem to be a problem here.

 

[ironjaw]

arent we all !!! lol

i know! I'm a personal trainer, and i always felt like such a hypocrite when giving the "you need to stop smoking or you're going to die on this treadmill" type speaches to people (though i only smoked 2-3 cigs a week, they were cloves)

it's nice to suggest something to them now! and being their trainer they can tell that it wont kill their lungs sicne i vape between clients, heh!

 

[KDinKC]

WOW! What a collection! Well you have definatelly reduced my guilt level for the purchases that I have made.
