    I tried to be logical in my purchases. I kept a list and quantities. I had a budget. I think I still bought too much. But this is a lifetime hoard. I’m at 3 mg and 12.5 watts.
    I’ve actually been stocking for years.I bought the liter of 100 mg nic before all this ban stuff happened. I stocked 4 -5 dirt cheap pvs for back-ups.Added the Geekvape Aegis minis and solos,the minikins and pods. Added a small amount of Zenith coils to top off my stock.Think I’m good.

    I never thought I would, but it has worked wonders for me. Often times I may be working for hours, where I literally have just a few seconds to spare. 2, maybe 3 quick puffs of 50mg nic salt and I am good. I seem to vaping less nicotine and less vaping overall, even though vaping at a much higher concentration. I used to vape 24mg (freebase) at about 3 to 4 ml per day.. right now it's just 1ml per day.

    I had only bought nic salts because I had run out of juice, and had to go to the vape shop. I bought all my juice online. They had nowhere near the strength in freebase I wanted, so the shop worker suggested the salts. Haven't gone back to freebase since.. but that's just me. Whatever works for us to keep us off smokes!

    I bought mine in 2013 from wl and it sat in my basement for over a year. I finally put it in the freezer and it’s fine. Still vaping on it after 6 years. I’ve decided to not get any more nic. 4.5 liters will have to do. I vape 3 mg but a few years ago I was down to 1 mg. I could do it again. I feel a little cray cray buying all this stuff. I’m officially done though.
    RnJ, at 3mg, 4.5 liters should last you forever.

    I forgot to mention that I got the innokin IO in the mail yesterday. I usually like most innokin stuff but am glad I didn’t pay for this one. It’s tiny and I keep getting liquid in my mouth. I’m not impressed.

    Based on the nic calculator from rossum’s final countdown thread...it should last me over 25 years. I’m 53. I vape 10 to 15 mls per day. This little setup of mine chucks some clouds too. Five year old innokin coolfire iv with aspire atlantis v2 and dropins.

    Final count on my mods is 36, around 5 of those I’m not that crazy about . That’s not counting my 5 Minikins. Also not counting my Spinners that I still use. Plus not counting my Anyvapes and Zmax’s.
    I gave away and/or threw away my entire vape stash five years ago. I had to start over. I’m not at your level but I have enough now.

    I gave almost all of my equipment away to a friend about 4 years ago, I know the feeling. Most of all I miss my paps mechs. His friend came over and trashed everything for some reason :( The monster...

    I miss my panmag the most. Panzer mech and magma from fast tech. That thing weighed a ton and was a beast. I loved dripping on that thing. I had all kinds of things. I just went through my house and simplified every room and every drawer and every closet...everything. I “Marie Kondo’d” my house before I even heard of her. Vape stash had to go.

    You have your mechs
    Yes, and when the day comes.. they'll be ready for me. I barely have used 2 out of the 3. Just the 1 has seen constant daily use and "abuse". I'm really hoping these Solos and the Double Barrel stand the test of time. I really like them

    My favorite mech was the paps lux 2.5. The switch on that one was so nice, and it shined like a mirror. If I could find a clone at a good price, I'd snatch it up. I think they quit making paps clones a couple years ago because of lawsuits? Not sure, but they don't seem to have them around anymore. Authentic is too rich for my blood right now, especially with vapocalypse stocking.
