Started 2 weeks ago with a Ego and a clearo. Went out the next day and bought a Evic and some Kanger T2's I think, three 30 ml bottles of juice. One of which I love, vanilla caramel. Gave the Ego to my sister and bought her an Itaste SVD and some tanks, juice etc. let's not forget the extra coils. Then bought an Itaste SVD as my backup, multiple batteries for the Mods. Added a protank 2 and more coils and more batteries. Listening to the enablers here on this site helped me to justify buying a second Evic in black this time. More batteries, more coils and more tanks. I am afraid to add it all up!! Yikes. At least I paid cash for all of it.

Now if only this accursed vapors tongue would go away so I can enjoy my juice again I would be a happy camper, it's been a week but still not returning to the analogs. I enjoy vaping too much to ever go back. Oh, I almost forgot the menthol, frost bite and cinnamon red hot I bought just so I could taste something....2X because sist has vapors tongue also. Haha.

Hey everyone. Started vaping about two weeks ago and I just can't stop acquiring new things! Every day it seems like I get a new tank or juice! I don't know about any of you, but I love this addiction! It got me away from analogs!

I think my first month I probably spent about a grand trying to figure out what kind of flavors I enjoyed, what ohmage I preferred, etc and so on.

Begun your journey, you have. End, let it not, young padawan...

Congratulations! It's a lot of fun exploring the world of vaping! You will probably get over the buying things every day. Then you'll only buy things once a week :)

I'm so frustrated with the amount of juices I am interested in, purchasing them and then leaving them to sit in my box along with all the other juices I bought. I always go back to my High Caliber blue raspberry lemonade 12mg 70/30 vg/pg. Don't get me wrong I'm testing these juices at the store and loving them there. N then when I get home, I'm like blah.

Please don't misinterpret this but why do we need so many diff set ups? Btw, I'm a noob but starting to want more equipment but I'm not sure why. I'm real happy with the simple stuff I have. Ego 650....basic noob gear. But I'm starting to wonder about vv . I didn't want this endeavor to take all the money I save from not smoking but my credit card is burning a hole in my pocket just sitting there while I fight the urges to go bigger/better. Why arent our current setups enuf to satisfy?

My problem began with collecting vape gear began when I tried a variable battery, I discovered I could dial in the taste and that is what did me in! Vision Spinner was my first.. then got thinking about Variable wattage and it was suggested to me to try an iTaste vv v3 and LOVED IT! Then I wanted battery life and started thinking about the iTaste MVP and a sale happened! I dunno.. it all happened so quick... :blink:

Maybe we're all just afflicted with addictive personalities.

Personally for me, it's kinda combined two things..1) a nicotine delivery albeit a better way than those stinking archaic dirty cigarettes.
And 2) a thirst for all things technology.

I think it could even be that in the long run no matter what I'm spending now, it will slow down and I know I'll still save money and still be alive to realise that it's the case.

Yep, I've been vaping almost a month and I started with 2 EVOD BCC (both tanks and batteries) Then I got an Ego-C Twist and 2 Protank II, after that, I got a VAMO V3 and an airflow controller and batteries and charger, then most recently an iTaste SVD, and now I have RBA's on the way from fasttech along with wick, wire and mesh. As far as juices go I have spent a good deal of cash buying sample packs of flavors. I've gotten to try 23 different flavors in the past month. Annnd I'm about to get a VTR from the coops. Smh like nova said atleast we have cool stuff to show for it instead of ciggy/ash trash. I don't care... I need to cool it a bit and just get replacement juices and coil/wick parts and heads after this but whatever. I'm happy and haven't touched a real cig since the day I got my vapes.

If I read between the lines ur saying to skip the vv alone and go straight for vv/vw. Right? It's just that for the first month I was completely satisfied....now there's all these other setups I didn't know about . I can only blame myself, I should have never learned to read. Lol

The difference between vv/vw is math, vv depends upon you knowing the resistance of your coils to determine the right voltage to give a solid vape.

Vw will do that math for you and set it at the right voltage for the watts you're vaping at, I just find that relies more on what tastes right for you.
I've moved to a vv/vw mod in the last er week or two and well, best move I've made, now instead of devices I have a liquid and an added tank addiction, which is cheaper than finding a device, it's disapating at least lol.

Wattage is just easier in my IMO.

The advantage I found with a VV/VW battery vs a regular VV battery like the spinner is not only does VW help you that you do not have to remember what Ohm coil you are using so you don't accidentally get a burnt taste from using too much voltage but it also has this neat nifty feature where it can tell you what ohm coil you have attached. That has been the biggest bonus for me! So I guess if you are wanting to graduate and skip a grade go straight to the vv/vw devices. :D

PS... this site is dangerous if you want to save money and not buy every neat shiny thing that comes along!

I adore my MVP! I didn't think I would like a box mod but... it's been a champ! I was worried I wouldn't like how it felt in my hand, but it fits nicely actually. I got it for use at home while charging my other batteries... but (yes another but LOL) it has a great consistent vape! I might actually consider taking it out with me since it's that good!
