oh and....

Since stopping smoking, almost a month now, I have saved £201.

Since starting vaping, almost a month now, I have spent £198

I have saved £3.00

I know that I will save money vaping next month, as my wife has been quite supportive that I have stopped smoking and has not cut me off from my cigarette money, but, that will have to change now.

I had problems with a couple of e-power 18650s' that I had bought from LF, not their fault, at the mercy of the manufacturer, it was easier to take a store credit from them which turned into juice and other such items and a red Little Gem Sidewinder that I have ordered a couple of 18500 batteries for www.cloud9vaping.co.uk/epages/yxve46fvrnud.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/yxve46fvrnud/Products/B63-12 as I read a post somewhere by Garry Dibley that this with LR cartos was what he suggested.

Also I took Perpetua's advice to look for a mechanical mod for the 18650s' and got me a Rough Stack V2 www.ecigwizard.com/shop/en/roughstack-mod/326-roughstack-mod.html which, I'm not sure is what she meant by mechanical, but this bad boy is my new best friend. Also very well constructed and looks like something I can stick on a wellhead if we ever run into problems offshore

Then there are the Riva batteries I ordered, the extra charger, the PG, the Cloud9 NEAT54 Mixing Liquid, some stainless steel LR cartos 'cause they will look the shnitz on the Rough Stack and the...... its out of hand at this moment in time.

But I'm done for now, I think, sort of, just need to work out what to mix up.

Oh one last thing Dave, have you checked out Prof Beard's blog? there is a enough stuff and info there I'll end up wanting to try that will fill a Punto

Is there a date & location yet for 2012 Vapefest?

[Gordy]

Im looking forward to hearing how you guys get on with your attys

[Perpetua]

Me too Gordy, I'm also impressed that Andrew has made a saving at all!

[Gordy]

LOL i know... it'll take me quite a few more months to break even let alone make a saving ...oh well its all good fun ...i just love having a new hobby

[Sandra (aka Chillax)]

I have been grinning my way through this thread lol

Savings what savings, I rolled my own, cheap cheap, so I am well up, prob spent about £600 more since vaping than I would of if I had stayed smoking but who cares, husband said a very SILLY thing to me when I started vaping "i don't care how much you spend, so long as your happy and off the fags" roflmao, if he only added it all up

And I haven't finished yet by a long shot (evil laugh) Have my eyes on one or two more things

I have never had leaking from 901 direct dripping, I love them, the flavour is fantastic but not been doing so much lately because I am still on my first 2 Kangers (3 weeks these little beauties have lasted so far)

[Gordy]

you know i tell myself that good health is priceless LOL ....helps me to justify to myself when i hit the buy button

[dave]

Blimey Jungle you have done well to get all that for £200 - I'm not going to tell how much I've spent so far!
I have resolved I am not getting any more PV's for now (except of course for my Christmas present Lavatube which doesn't count, oh and the cheap backup Lavatube from Ian's group buy - that is just being prudent!).
I've set myself a target of 3 months vaping before my next big treat - so I've arranged to get a Throathit monster mod next february - oh boy am I looking forward to that!
But like Gordy says health is priceless and I'm feeling great and really enjoying myself

[jungle]

hmmmm googling Throathit monster mod......

[Perpetua]

I am laughing ( in a nice way ) at this thread . . . 2012 and I'll be into year 3 of vaping, have made a promise to myself to tighten my vaping purse strings . . . although it could be Mission Impossible, we'll see.

[jungle]

Good hobby. Good forum. Good people. Good times.

[Perpetua]

Totally agree Andrew . . . we never had this much fun smoking tobacco either.

Ah . . . they look like Empire Mods Drip Shields Gordy.

And yes, they're fab Dave. . . Avid Vapers also make some.

www.avidvaper.com/drip-shields/

i thought that Perpy, surprisingly cheaper too and hopefully Lisa will be able to keep them in stock unlike Avid LOL. i may well have to pick one up as i do love the way they look and love the flavour from a 901 but find they are leaky lil devils

Shhh, don't tell Lisa that or the price will double!
They are a good price.
