I drip almost 3ml a day on a 6v mod, and I use about another ½ml a day in a cartomizer using my "commute mod" at 3.7v.
That's right, mohawkx! What most non-smokers don't realize is that smokers/ex-smokers love the taste of tobacco, burning tobacco to be exact. I plan to cut my nic down slowly and get the best of both worlds - no nic and smoke, just tobacco flavor. VG is much smoother on the throat, but I'm sure you already know. I don't care as much for TH either.
Most people use 1.5 to 5ml per day.
I don't let myself chain vape and at home I actually put the ecigs in another room so I have to get up to vape (though I do leave a book near them so I can read and vape for a bit). I started out trying o only vape as much as I had smoked (1.5 packs worth of drags) and I was using a small weaker ecig (M401) and I used 1.5ml per day.
Now I vape a bit more and carry 3 different ecigs with me (KR808D-1 manual, 510 manual, and Riva 510 which is an Ego clone). I probably use 2 to 2.5 ml per day. I don't use tanks or LR attys/cartos - those would probably use juice up faster.

I just replaced smoking w/ vaping a week ago (was 1.5 PAD), so I'm sure this will change, but I seem to be averaging 3mL/day thus far.
Good luck, Issac_TN, and welcome! You can do it!
Funny, dormouse, cute avatar, we have almost identical equipment. I also have the 808D-1 and Joye 510, buying an eGo next. So tired of charging those tiny 510 batts.
Most people who replied seem to be between 3 and 6 mls, so I guess I'm not too far out there.

i was 1/1.5 pack a day smoker(1.5 on weekends). i'm only 4 days in, but i'm treating my Echo the same way i did analogs. i don't vape at work. i don't vape in the house. i got a new car a few months ago, so i didn't smoke in the car. i have vaped a little in the car on my way home the past couple of days. all that said, when i got my gear in on Monday, i filled my carto with 3 ml of juice. last night, i thought for sure it has to be close to being empty, so i thought i'd try to put 2 ml in. i got to 1.5 and it started to flood the carto. so, maybe 1 ml per day? something like that.
Good for you, keifer! I didn't smoke in my car and house, only in the garage. When I switched, I liberated myself from old restrictions. My other problem is it just hasn't felt the same for me yet, so I...over compensate.
thanks, guy! i got lucky. i didn't follow conventional wisdom(just cuz i'm a cheap bastage). i researched and researched and did all that due diligence... and it didn't really matter. at the end of the day, taste is totally subjective. i had online carts filled on a bunch of sites. i finally pulled the trigger at vermillion river and ordered their Kentucky Cherrywood and Kentucky Applewood (and a sample of Caramel Cappuccino). i love the Cherrywood. we'll see on the Applewood and CC. i also ordered some Dekang from Madvapes, cuz we're both simpatico, aka CHEAP. i loaded another carto with that last night just to try. that ain't half-bad either. not as good as VR Cherrywood, but i like it. i've been tooting off that about every 3rd or 4th time i go outside just to change things up a bit. all the while my last pack of analogs is still sitting in the same place acting awful lonely. i pat it every now and again.
4-7 a day 11 or 12 mg juice but I am thinking about going DIY with 0 mg juice if I can figgure it out.
keifer, I have two packs left of my last analog purchase months ago - my ultimate security blanket. What if the power goes out, equipment failure, act of God, couldn't find a cab, tux didn't come back from the cleaners (Blues Bros)?
fright88, you might try 6-8 mg first? I'm between 6 & 11 mg, problem is the body's not ready. When I vape 6 mg, I double the volume. There's DIY forum on ECF for tips if you go that way.

Also a PAD ex-smoker, I go through about 3-4 carto fills a day on my days off, a little less when I work. Each fill is 15-20 drops, not sure what that equates to in mls.
Thank you
Actually, I didn't even set out intending to quit, just got an ecig because I'm addicted to gadgets and was curious. It just kinda happened LOL My boss was fine with me vaping at my desk once I explained what it was to him, and I just kinda stopped taking cigarette breaks that first day. I've still got 9 packs left in a carton sitting in my Jeep that I've had no real desire to open.
I was a 2 PAD smoker for 15 years, since Ive been vaping my ml a day has gone up from 10ml every 4 days to 3-4ml's a day now.
I recently switched my nic level from 16 to 11 and now 6mg. I guess the lower nic you go the more you vap to compensate for the level. I'm a tech support rep and in an office most of the day so I can vape freely, but when I have to go out to users and the fubar'd pc's I don't vape.
When I am home I chain vape as I am surfing the forum, and playing MMO's so 5ml's a day if you are front of your comp a day is pretty normal IMHO.
Dont feel bad as you can see you are not alone. Just find a distributor that will work out some deals with you on larger bottle orders and you can even out your juice cost to vape ratio.
Hope this helps.

Twoflower, I read each ml = 20 drops, so you're probably around 3 mls.
Issac_TN, the way I see it, even if the stars were against me and I do an analog under "dire" conditions, I've still cut my analogs down by 99%! It's a win. With quitting smokes, when we're ready, we're ready. It's meant to be.
kaos731, ah, the computer and PV, a good combination...for juice merchants. Would you believe I'm shopping for 1 liter (1,000 ml) bottles! Juice has a long shelf life, so why not?

I'm currently at around 3-4ml a day. When I first started vaping it was only 2ml but then I picked up a passthrough.
