I do know a "few" people that still use an eGo battery two years later. So it is "possible" to vape on a small budget. I haven't figured it out yet though.
Hopefully I'll let you know in a few months.
I'm expecting pretty much the same thing out of the Provari. That it'll outlive me. Sounds like a plan. Never understood the point of buying something that costs $80 every 4-6 months and then whining about the price of another device that costs $160 and should last at least 20 years, which is the standard it's designed for.
Never could understand buying things you just plan on throwing away later. Doesn't make sense to me.
