"Porcheritas"A warm* and hearty welcome to our new porchers/porcheritas! Do hope y'all enjoy our amenities and make yourselves at home.

I had no idea I'd learn so many useful words when I came to the porch. 
You were only a month ahead of me in vaping.So many choices!
So many choices!
Yeah, it can be confusing, and without ECF....
Lots fewer options when I started, and compared to many here, I was a latecomer to the party. (My quit date was 10/11/12.) Options were largely what mAh fixed voltage battery, carto or clearo, and which of 3 resistance values. Well, maybe not that limited, but close! How times have changed, and as @Bea-FL mentioned, it may stop changing in the not too distant future depending on what the new admin in DC does or doesn't do regarding the dooming...
Most of what's out now did not exist prior to 2001, so left unchanged, it won't be legal to market after 8/8/18. That would be most all the adjustable mods, most tanks, most pre-built replacement heads.... and the onerous regs for juice defy description! So having a few (a lot?!) of replaceable battery mods, several (many?) of your preferred toppers, and lots of nic in the freezer is a reasonable strategy. Things like PG, VG, resistance wire, all with many common non-vape uses, no real need to stash.
(Nic, sealed well in the freezer, has a REALLY long shelf life, so even if one doesn't diy now, it's good insurance.)
I personally have enough nic to last about 15 years. And enough cotton and wire to last me and the next generation a lifetime.
I've purchased several candy molds too... Because I don't trust "them" to not start checking my purchases for patterns. As I vape mostly candy and fruit, I'm covered
I can't wait to fix up my mod/tank/juice disaster area lmao
work in progress
I did that a few month's ago ... this is what got packed away.
Still in circulation are:
4x Provape Radii
2x Provari P3's
4x Provari 2.5's
2x Istick 50's
4x iStick 40's
4x iStick Pico's
As to toppers ... I've got an Army of KFL's. A platoon each of the Lites, V3's, V4's and V5's. Then there's the reserve company of 'em just in case re-inforcements need to be activated. Then there's the odd couple of ErlK's and a bunch of retired Genny's. And not to forget 4x Kabuki's and boxes and boxex of replacement heads for if'n I can no longer wind and wick my own coils.
Disclaimer: This collection is not personal, it's shared w/ my wife.
I have one Nemmy, set up with fuse, with eight kayfuns in stealth mode (5.25 inches).
everything else is stashed.

Yup, lots of mods (regulated and mech squonkers), pre-made coils and coil making stuff. Not enough attys with a velocity-style deck, though. That deck is stupid easy to build on! I think I'll be able to manage that style atty for many, many years to come.
@mongo74, it's nice having lots of attys. Sometimes ya want more clouds; sometimes, more flavor. Sometimes ya want matchy-matchy; sometimes bigger coils; sometimes duals or triples... An' sometimes, ya just want a new shiny!

I am never away from home long enough to even carry my one. Weaning is going well. Although right now I just finished an edit of my writing project, and could use some nic.You don't carry a backup with you?!

What I find odd (besidez everything) iz after all these years talking about sealed batt modz, no one has come up with a walkthru on changing them. Knot possible to be impossible so yood think there'd be all kinds of "hack yer mod" stories.

Knot da same, hunee.
I mean like say you have an mvp. (or any facsimile thereof) You can't just do a search for replacing the batt. The forums start out ok but rapidly get off track with the mine's bedder den yers deal. And no one can name a batt to replace it. Or where to get one.Knot sayin I want to. Just that itz odd that there aren't a bazillion posts on how to where to why to out there.
my buddy gave me a juice called melon milk crusher...interesting. Japanese style honeydew melon milk.
Something's off...think it needs a steep or...maybe a berry flavoring.

Likely its beyond the skill set of the average vaper to disassemble something like an MVP or iStick and solder in a replacement battery. And a true modder isn't going to be interested in something like an MVP or iStick.
