Why not a Billet Box? And you can either rebuild or use one of Eleaf iJust mesh coils. Here where pods are mostly unavailable and expensive, that's the go vape. And it's another rabbit hole of shinytis!2 pod mods would still be quite pocket friendly (2 Orions are smaller than my Luxotic) I also noticed my juice and nic consumption has gone WAY down with my Orion. I am using usually 1ml a day (DIY salt 25mg). I am always out and about so the compact size and convenience has been perfect for me. I had a second Orion till my wife saw it and really liked it. I'll pick up another one when I can. I think I want a CF one next. How you like the Nord?
