I definitely chain smoke mine, which is why I got some lower nicotine content for times I know I will be.

im a college student, and i often find myself sitting through 2 hour summer lectures wishing i could just bust it out and vape while taking notes or doing lab experiments

i vape a lot at home, sometimes too much. all i have atm is 36mg which is too strong really, i try cutting it with glycerine but seems less flavor. gotta find the sweet spot.

Once I get good vapor going, 18 mg seems plenty for me. At least for JC Tenn Cured.

I saw some formulas for juice. It was interesting that the more nicotione in the formulas, the less PG. Looks like the amount of vapor may be inversely proporational to amount of nicotine content. I don't have enough experience to confirm this

I was a pack and a half a day smoker for 30 years.

My two cents.

Major chainvaporer here. Just cut back to 6mg so I can keep on chainvaping. I love it. If I ever FIND an xray postion OPEN somewhere I'll probably have to cut back. I chain the 6mg and keep the 18mg for when I used to smoke...after eating, exercising (LOL, yep) waking, etc.

I do have a question for anyone that has cut down the mg...do you notice a smoother taste and less throat hit? I don't mind that but every now and then as said above I "need" that throat hit.....

hi, i am also a long time smoker (40 years, omg!!!). i have the 901 and found that the first few hits were good but then i was sucking the carts dry by the end of the first night and felt quite dissatisfied. i ordered some ejuice, got the batteries charged up and now i'm getting good hits but yes.....chain vaping! i find that i'm dripping juice into the cart more often than i thought i would and lose track of how much i'm actually "smoking". it's hard to judge, as it doesn't go out like an analog. if i'm sitting at the computer or out socializing, this thing is not out of my hands! i'm a complete newbie and this forum is helping me out a lot....lots more to learn about it than i realized! how long did you vape before you noticed your breathing getting better and or smoker's cough clearing up? cheers!

I've been a menthol smoker for about 30+ year, but I rarely smoked more than a pack a day. I haven't had an analog since I got my first m401 in February - so that's about six months now. The main thing that I've noticed is no crud in my nose or on the back of my teeth and a lot less coughing up crud. I was very strict about no smoking in my home,car or at work, but I now finding myself chain vaping with a USB kit plugged into a USB extension cord then to a USB wall socket while I sit at home and watch Tv - sort of like using a hookah!! I bought that USB bcause batteries were only lasting me about an hour at most. I have five chargers that I was rotating the batteries in. That was getting really old. I use medium strength liquid. I add 5 drops to my cartridge about every 30 minutes. I only change cartridges every 2 to three weeks, and that's usually because the "cotton" falls out of it. I've gone through about six or seven atomizers, but I've changed many of them because they started having a "burnt" taste that I don't like, but they still actually work. I can tell if I've vaped too much because I get a headache, in the old analog days I would get nauseated when I smoked too much. I've been searching for ways to clean atomizers, but it's hard to track the info down the way that this forum is setup. There are just too many places to look and very unexplanatory titles that are useless to search. I've started ordering my USB's,cartridges,atz's and eliquid directly from China because it's a lot cheaper and I've never had a problem with my orders. One vendor even emails you a photo of the order before it is sent out!

I don't have trouble with chain vaping. I just need it to be a stronger throat hit. So I am thinking about trying some of the modified ecigs.

I've been trying for a while to figure out how to get that code for days since I quit smoking to appear at the end of my posts. Do you have to enter the code manually each time? Is it a signature? How in the heck do people get those to work??? I can't find a how to anywhere, but I do have the code from clicking on someone elses. If I try to put the code in my reply, I get a nasty message saying that I haven't had 15 posts yet (which surprises me a little since I think I've posted more than 15).

I tell you, for some weird reason, in the 8 hours that I have received and been smoking this PV- I have puffed on it less than I would have regular analogs. I've posted elsewhere on here that I think it helps just to have it hanging out of my mouth and in my hand without having to worry about getting smoking in my eyes or it burning down. I always felt that I had to puff more on an analog since I didn't want to waste it by letting it burn down on its own. But with this 510 manual batt, I can just sit here all day with it in my mouth, taking a puff once in a while when I feel like it. Basically it's like smoking all day, but taking less puffs.

[quote=BananaDoc;13621]Perhaps the next iteration of ecigs will have a built-in reset feature? After 15 good puffs it switches off for 5-10 minutes? If it dies and you know it will stay dead for a length of time would you be more likely to put it down and walk away for a while?

just a thought.

I alway have 2-3 ecigs with me so your idea wouldn't help lol.

Yeah i vape all day when ever i have chance with 12mg and below and dont have any problem with Nic-od yet. vaping for hrs is normal for me, the flavor is so good on ecigs, can't put it down.
