One of the first i got was a Nemesis Mech mod in Rainbow, i thought it was the bees knees at the time. Still going strong tho after 3 years and still looking good.
Dont laugh, my shiny rainbow Nemesis Mech mod has a Kanger Genitank on top with a matching rainbow drip tip. I hear you all say.......why are you still using a tank like that lol.......Nostalgia lol
Am counting down the days to the next Vape exhibition......under two weeks to go. Vape Jam in Birmingham (UK). I feel lots of new juices and mods coming on lol. Have been saving my pennies so will be able to add to the obsession
Opppps, made a mistake in the previous message. Vape Jam was the one a couple of weeks ago at Excel. The one in NEC Birmingham next week is Vape Expo. Am off there Saturday week with my savings so should have a good spend up. Planning to pick up some good concentrates and may just add to my mod collection lol
No wonder you can't keep them all straight 
I'm jealous - haven't even been to a vape shop yet - let alone a vape jam/expo. Prolly a good thing

Go to one and enjoy. I find the vape shops here only really sell juices with the odd few mods and tanks. The exhibitions are a different kettle of fish..........lots of juices, concentrates, mods and tanks etc. Its a really good day out and great being with fellow vapersNo wonder you can't keep them all straight

One more day to go before Vape Expo. Fingers crossed they have some good bargains there, will be added to the collection lol....hopefully.
I tend to go completely overboard when I focus on a hobby. Especially new ones. Guitars, snowboarding, watches, golfing, knives, vintage wine, vaping, etc.
Smoking wasn’t a hobby for me at all. It was just a dirty addiction. I guess some people collect expensive lighters or cigarette cases, but that is likely pretty rare. Buy a pack of smokes, pull out a Bic lighter, smoke, repeat.
When I started vaping almost 3 years ago, I quit smoking for good the day I picked up my first vape kit (30W eLeaf with a Nautilus Mini). I started buying more mods and tanks and was building RBAs and RDAs and making my own Juice within a few months. I thought mechs were cool, so I started buying high end Nemesis, GP Paps, HoH and Gus mechs. So after about a year I had a couple dozen mechs, a dozen or so good regulated mods and a few dozen tanks (Nautilus to Kayfuns to Kabuki to Steamcraves).
Anyhoo, in the last year, I have barely bought any vape gear except the odd bunch of coils for my Crown III and Beast tanks when they are on sale, PG/VG and a couple of my usual flavours when I run out. I only vape 2 flavours (one 90% of the time) and my wife only one.
The technology hasn’t really changed in the last 12-18 months, so I am happy with what I have and am more interested in vaping to quit smoking vs. it as a hobby now.
Vaping is a lot more fun than smoking from a hobby perspective, but I see many vapers go nuts with buying at first then mixing and building but then kinda level out once they find what works for them.
I think vaping is a great hobby, but it can be hard for me to go bonkers and be super excited about the latest and greatest in vaping for years and years.

Im at that level now, been quite a while since ive bought any new mods or tanks. Im still as keen on vaping but do struggle in cycling all the gear i have. As you say things have not really moved on that much over the last 12 months so am more than happy with my current gear. Time for an addition tho i think lolI tend to go completely overboard when I focus on a hobby. Especially new ones. Guitars, snowboarding, watches, golfing, knives, vintage wine, vaping, etc.

I actually sold a bunch of my stuff on ECF a few months back.... Provaris, Kayfuns, Kabukis and a ton of other stuff. Had quite the cache once I pulled everything out. Quite the market for used gear as long as it isn’t ancient.
I have about a half dozen really good 200-ish dual 18650 mods that are serving me well. But I would definately buy another mod if something really cool catches my eye.
The stuff I am using just won’t break though!Ive not thought about selling any of my mods before.......dont think i could part with any of them lol.I actually sold a bunch of my stuff on ECF a few months back....

Im up to around 85 different mods and still use the majority of them. I tend to use my mech mods while im home (dripping) but use my APV's during the day.
A good day had at Vape Expo on Saturday in Birmingham (UK). Lots of good juice to be had, lots of freebees and some pretty good mods and tanks for sale. I bought nearly a ltr of juice at a really good price....makes a change from diy mixing. I got some really wicked flavours. I couldnt possibly leave without treating myself to a new mod or tank so bought the Smok Mag kit it Gold. It comes with the TFV12 Prince Tank. Was a knockdown price of £35 for the kit. Am looking forward to the next one lol
