When I started there was no way I was going to spend that kind of money on an unknown...took me about six months to figure it out. Heck, I didn't even expect vaping to work to get me off the cigs. That was two years plus ago, and today, for the same money I spent on an EGO type setup, a smoker can get way more bang for their buck, and gear that actually performs much better than those EGO's and T3's did. Like Zen said, plug and play is the future, and we are pretty much there.
When I finally decided that I was done with the smokes for good, that is when I got serious about getting a durable reliable setup, no matter what the cost. All roads on my search led me to the ProVari. I never looked back and never had one regret, quite the contrary. I finally felt like I was "there" when I got my first ProVari. It was a commitment for me, a commitment to stay truly smoke free. Adopting and collecting ProVari's became a celebration of my walk away from smoking.
