Been a few weeks since I posted here. Just didn't really find the time to and when I did I wasn't really in the mood. Maybe I'll try just some short entries more often. Said that before, we'll see how that goes.
Main thing is I bought a Tornado on the classifieds from Firhill. Was very cheap and it's just a basic no box single battery setup.
First night I was impressed as it lasted me through out one of my 12 hours shifts at work. But now I'm finding a little less battery life. Not sure if its the unit, I think its more of me chain vaping even harder because of being thrilled with this new battery. I does beat the standard 510 batts for longevity. The new setup is alot smaller than I thought it would be too, really not too much bigger than the stock 510.
Am really glad of that. I'm really happy with this purchase, sorta wish I went with it to start, but at least I got the chance to learn from the ground up, and this gives me stuff to sell or trade for upgrading even further.
I am thinking though that I should hold onto the stock 510 batt as there will probably be times where the smaller form factor will come into play on some occasions when I want to vape away from home. You just never know. I've also run that 650 ma battery down more than once and the 510 batt makes for an easy to carry back up to keep you going while it charges.

I really do need to get a grip on this chain vaping I'm doing. Its not a heavy constant, but a steady use all day long. Have to learn to just put it down.
About two weeks ago we had an incident at work (I actually had to get physical with someone) and I was tied up for a few hours. The thought of vaping didn't even cross my mind. The same had happened in the past when I smoked, and I wouldn't have been freaking because I wasn't able to go take a break to smoke, was it's not uncommon to go a few hours without as long as I was occupied.
But once you're clear you make that B line outside to take care of the habit. What amazed me about this instance was that several hours passed before I even thought about it. Just all of a sudden it was like "Hey I haven't been vaping on my pacifier for a long time now and nothing happened".
It made me start thinking about cutting back on my vaping. I know I chain vape mostly because I can and that I can do so indoors at home whereas prior I had to go outdoors to smoke.
Though I would never go back to smoking if I had my choice, I do still see some things that I did when i smoked that I'm not doing now and I probably should. I hate to say they were advantages to smoking, but maybe it should be looked at as positive compensations I made because I smoked that I have abandoned. I'll touch on it more on next time.
