Well, welcome to ECF! I would say "It sounds like you'll fit in here" but I think you've already demonstrated that, LOL.
I have a moderate (but expensive and also diverse) set of setups. I haven't counted, as I don't really want to, but heh, that is because if I have a smaller number than I think, I will go "I believe I need more," and also, if I have more than I expect, I'm going to feel bad.
However everything (DIY start up and stockpile costs kind of aside) cost less than my smoking habit (not necessarily JUST smoking itself, we used tubes, loose tobacco and an injector machine) but if I included health costs for the last 18 months I smoked, pretty much with non stop pneumonia, well, I'm still ahead, despite some stockpiling and etc. LOL.

If I kept every mod I ever bought... I would probably have a closet full. Fortunately, they all break on me sooner or later, with the exception of a Sigelei telescoping mod that I still have for God only knows why... it's not subOHM and I only do subOHM now, lol. Right now I've got a Vaporesso Revenger, Ego One, and an Arymi M1. I've got a Sigelei T200 arriving today that I'm really excited about... my first touchscreen mod! Yay! 
I also have an Eleaf iStick Pico 75W that is on its way from FT... thanks to this forum ranting and raving about them so much, I'm wanting to see if it can replace my Ego One for portability so I no longer have to use a throwaway device.
Welcome to ECF! Beware of how much this forum will get you to spend! lol

Richard, you'll fit in just fine here. 
Welcome to the forums!
Welcome to the forums!
I was about to warn you that these people love to spend your money, but it appears from your stockpile that you might welcome their encouragement.
Quite agree. Ive bought some really nice mech mods in the past only to find that when i go back and look for them they have been discontinued. I tend to surf and if i find something that catches my eye i buy there and then incase its no longer available at a later date.I would consider myself an occasional collector but as the things I liked started to get discontinued, I became a bit obsessed with getting those things that fit my style. I'm probably more in the hoarder category at this point when it come to new buys, more obsessed with hunting down deals on disappearing stuff than anything new.
My mech/unregulated collection is pretty much wrapped up with an Epipemods epipe and a Microstick clone being the last additions. I don't use mechs much but it's nice to have them just in case and some are works of art.
When it comes to regulated devices I only like a handful and have accumulated multiples of them.
I suppose one can be obsessed with gear without buying anything, but I prefer thinking it's not an obsession until you have one more than your currently have.
Just imagine, in 30yrs time some of these will be collector items lol.
Hi CMD-Ky, thanks for the warning......im easily ecouraged. Im a stickler for a nice shiney mod.I was about to warn you that these people love to spend your money, but it appears from your stockpile that you might welcome their encouragement.
Sounds a better idea than the one i was going to do...........i saw a nice shiney mod in multicolour that i was going to buy her, only problem is she doesnt vape lol.
Glad im not alone. Happy vaping and dont forget to build that collection up.
Hi Stols001, thank you for your vote of confidence. I like your view on your number of mods. Difficult option to count or not to count lol.
Ive done the same, have a really nice collection plus spares and tools and juice etc and its still cost me less that my smoking did. And as you say, much better for our health.
Happy vaping
Sadly ive had a few mods die on me too. Hope you enjoy the T200. I really like the pico for size and the ext battery. Thanks for the welcome.If I kept every mod I ever bought...

Ive been saving up for a little spend. Here in the Uk we have a Vape exhibition coming up (Vaper xpo). Im off to it in London on Sunday. Should be really good, lots of exhibitors etc.
Its been over a month since ive bought anything so may have to have a little spend up.
Last year i got a bronze Tesla 120 Speampunk at the show really cheap so fingers crossed there will be some good bargains.
Will also be intresting to chat with the guys and gals there about the stupid TPD regulations.

Off to Vape Jam in London in the morning, should be a good day. Fingers crossed i come back with a new addition to the collection lol.
Hi Possum64, thanks. Had a really good day. Always good to get together with Vaping guys and girls, lots of chatting about juices and mods and whats new etc.
It was a full venue, lots of people attended and as always, lots of vendors there. I got some wicked juices......loved the Dr Frost range.....different flavours with hints of menthol.
Usual vendors there, such a Vampire Vapes, Dinner Ladies, Thor etc and lots of new up and coming vendors.
Was very interesting to learn about the new pod systems and Nicotine salts..... not sure i like the pod system devices (seems a lot of waste to me). Sadly not many mods for tanks to purchase but i guess that was just as well lol.
Was definately a good day. Another 4 weeks and im off to Vaper Expo in Birmingham. Should be another really good day
You lucky duck Richard! Sounds very interesting. At least you got some new juices to try and you might pick up a new mod or tank at the Birmingham Expo!
Hehehe thanks Possum64. Yes, always like trying some new juices. Fun starts when i find some really nice ones then try to replicate them when DIY mixing. The Dr Frost ones were really nice.
Have got me fingers crossed the Birmingham one has some good Mods for sale.
