I also wrestle with "need" vs "want". I once thought buying a Provari was a "want" boy was I wrong! This thing has improved my vaping 100%! I love to save money... I diy my own juice, I make my own tanks but spending the money for a high quality device was something I needed to do. I hate sounding like a fanboy/girl but I guess I am. Buying this mod took all the hassle and frustration out of most of my vaping life. I know exactly what is going on and the peace of mind alone is worth the price. While I see that this purchase fell into the "need" catagory, the extra money for the black or chrome or blue led light fall into the "want" catagory... I'm not interested in spending more for those things.
I see all these gorgeous tanks... hand blown, sandblasted, decorated to reflect the owner's personal style. And while, yea, I'd love to have one, my cheap tanks work great and look good (to me) so I can't make myself spend that kind of money. I don't "need" them. I also see people paying high prices for custom drip tips.. I get my plain black drip tips free when I order cartos.. they work and I'm satisfied. I did splurge on a blueberry big belly drip tip but I figured $3 wouldn't set me back too far. And I like it
All I'm interested in is having vaping gear that works and keeps me away from cigarettes. And while I like my things to look nice and neat (and good).. I'm not in this to win any beauty contests. I do understand the need to customize things, make a statement, show personal style.. I have that need also with other things but I don't feel the need to do this with my vaping gear. I'm not knocking those that do spend their money on these things.. not at all.. if I had extra money I might get a few nicer looking tanks, some neat drip tips, try a bunch of new juices...or maybe not.
