I get about a whole day of vaping out of my regular 510 battery, just use a PCC. I charge one in it over night for 8hrs then switch and use that one in morning it will last me all day! Then I swap again at night, so I always use same battery during day, my other is just a backup for night! I read all these post about them only lasting a hr and dont get it:confused: I got 14hrs out of one 510 battery in one day!!:p I dont use the AC charger just my PCC but I have yet had a battery go dead on me during day! It took 14hrs for one to go dead! So no need for the PCC but maybe it seems to give the battery a better charge?:confused: I let my cousin use my AC charger since he dont have a PCC, and I dont use it. The PCC works fine for me and I do vape about a tank or so a day (1ml) not a chain vaper but Id say an average user. Anyways I love the battery life Im getting out of a 510 battery!:p

Yeah one tank a day I guess Im not vaping as much as some just enough to not smoke and a little extra cause its fun! But I timed a batt the other day I got 14hrs and a tank and half before it died!! the 510 tanks hold .8ml so about 1.2ml.

Yeah for a light smoker they're fine but for moderate to heavy an XL or better is preferable.

I vape 1 ml a day, and I usually go through two 510 batteries. I don't vape all day, just like an hour or two here and an hour or two there (about 4 hours a day total). One 510 battery usually lasts me about two hours. One 510 battery lasts my wife all day, if not longer, but she only vapes about .25 - .5 ml a day.

I do plan on getting a couple eGo batts and a charger one of these days, but I'm broke, and as long as I can swap batteries once a day, I don't really need them. I could probably go two days on one eGo batt, which would be nice. I'd especially want that for a weekend camping trip, then I wouldn't need to bring my PCC.

I you are getting these kinds of results, you should not be vaping because you are obviously NOT addicted to nicotine.

I didn't realize people were only allowed to vape if they were addicted to nicotine. I guess the whole hand-to-mouth thing (or the benefits of nicotine for people like me who have neurological disorders) doesn't count for anything?

That comment was sort of uncalled for. They could be vaping 0mg for all you know. It may not be necessary for him to vape, but he can if he wants to.

It is fun to vape, is it not?

Both those points do count for something, but you can't stop the self-righteous purists from popping their heads out of their holes.

I use 12mg nicotine was a smoker for 16years but always lights and only about a half pack a day! I dont just sit around and vape though like it sounds like some of u do thats fine but If I get a craving for a cig I take a few vapes and put it up Im going thru almost a 510 tank a day probably about .5ml they say a pack a day smoker would go through 10ml a week I am using about 7ml a week. Im sure some of u can probably sit around and vape that in a hour! Now when I first got mine I did vape everywhere non stop! Also started with 18mg liquid. im sure if I just sat and vaped for a hour straight it would kill battery sooner. But yes I am ADDICTED to nicotine I have tried the patch, the gum, everything even chantix (RX) but vaping has been the best! I have now been smoke free for over a month!!! I could never get past 2-3days without giving in and smoking before now I have those cravings just take a few vapes! The idea is to save money an quit or get my nicotine healthier if I can vape just enough to get me by then thats less liquid I need to buy!!!

Sounds like me and ur wife get about the same battery life and I vape about the same at .5ml. Theres always a tad left in the tank. A pack of cigs Pall Mall Blues would last me 2days.

I did just stay up all night one day and vaped normally just a few vapes here and there through out the day and I got almost exactly 14hrs and vaped a tank and about half another probably about 1.2ml since these 510 tanks hold .8ml. I think if I would of sat for two hrs and vaped almost non stop the battery would die! But just a few vapes here and there and it last all day! So ur hour or two here nonstop then other hour or so like u said about 4hrs total and two batterys sounds right if I was to sit and vape for that long at time just taking a couple vapes here and there seem to make the battery last longer then just vaping non stop, makes since. If u use a flashlight for hours straight its going to die but if u just use it here and there then the flashlight will last u longer. But cignot.com had a guide that said a pack a day smoker would vape about 10ml a week I seem to be about 7ml so figured Im vaping just right for a pack of cigs lasting me two days? Figured since me and ur wife vape about the same I bet she was a little less then a pack a day smoker too? Well i just thought of it, if I went to the low nicotine liquid like 6mg Im sure I would vape more of it but finishing my 18mg and got 12mg figured id just stay at 12mg maybe even 18mg the stronger the less vapes! No I like vaping too much! I will stay at 12mg Im not into all the mods just need my 510-T or maybe one day upgrade to a Ego-T but no mods or big hobby for me Ive seen pics of members with tackle and tool boxes full of PV's, Liquid and all kind of goodies! Seems vaping has turned into its own little hobby. I am usually busy on the scooter forums where I ride a scoot but havent even been on them! I just been on here learning and reading, vaping, checking out the acceseries and different flavors! Lol guess thats my hobby not actually getting into all the mods and vaping at certain volts heck I see people on here do alot of there mods and even make there own liquids! And then theres tons of members that are into making pouches and cases and such that has to take up alot of there time! Well kinda got off subject just learning alot! Have a good day and happy vaping!

Despite my best efforts, I haven't managed to get addicted to nicotine via vaping. However, with all the health problems nicotine treats and prevents at low to moderate levels, I have to say I don't think there's much problem in someone using nicotine whether they're addicted or not! I may not have been addicted to cigarettes before, but the quality of my life is so much better now that I can focus on things and enjoy life. I might even be protected from breast cancer, parkinson's, and alzheimer's disease. :) If I get addicted to nicotine or if I don't, so be it.

Only stupid kids who think this is cool, but aren't addicted to nicotine, should stay away from ecigs.

So basically anyone that is just like every current smoker and former smoker turned vapor, who was at some point in their life or maybe still is - a stupid kid (or kid at heart)?

I have to disagree with you. People are going to do what they are going to do, that's human nature, if they don't start vaping, they just might start smoking or using chew. We were all stupid kids once, and if vaping had been around when most smokers started smoking, more of us would be (around) now.

You jumped on the OP simply because (in your opinion) he/she wasn't addicted to nicotine, without even knowing if he/she was a "stupid kid" (like the rest of us were/are), or a former smoker like most of the rest of us. You didn't know how much or how little the OP once smoked, or whether they may have a hand-to-mouth addiction, or were using nicotine for a nervous disorder (maybe not recommended, but still, people are going to do what people are going to do).

I personally wouldn't even go so far as to say that someone who only smokes a 1/4 PAD, doesn't light up within the first half hour of being awake, etc. is necessarily not addicted to nicotine. Not all addictions are created equally. Some might not have as strong of addictions as others. IMO, better for someone to vape daily and increase their overall nicotine intake, than to smoke a 1/2 pack once a week when drinking or hanging out with smokers.

If someone is going to experiment with nicotine, as so many do, better to start with ecigs than any other tobacco product, IMO. Unless you tow the line of the FDA (and others) that ecigs will lead to analogs. But, I just don't see someone vaping and wishing that their experience was limited to two flavors (ashtray and ashtray+menthol) and made their hair and clothing smell like they work at a trash incineration plant.

Let's face it, vaping is the new smoking. In a perfect world, only smokers and nicotine addicts would vape, and no one would start a nicotine addiction with vaping. In a perfect world, the youth of today would be smart enough to learn from the mistakes of the previous generation, without having to make those mistakes for themselves, unlike every generation that came before them.

Thanks for the the kind words to those who dont think I should vape if I only vape 5-7ml a week!! Im glad u understand, and no Im not some stupid kid who thinks vaping is cool! I was a stupid kid when i started smoking cigs at 12yrs old thinking I was cool! (currently 29yrs old now) I wish I never started smoking them been trying to quit for 3 years mainly due to my Dads really bad helath issues that almost killed him if it wasn't for his heart pump (Left Ventricular Assist Device) he has to have now he wouldnt be alive, like my other aunts and uncles that have passed away from smoking. He was a big influence on me to try to quit! So I get a PV and start vaping and it has been the only thing to stop the cravings for a cig! I was only a half pack a day smoker but was still addicted!! I would have to have a cig first thing in morning after I ate trust me I was addicted! I think u could only smoke 3-6 cigs a day and become addicted. Theres not a level of cigs u must smoke a day to be addicted. lol My friend only smokes when he drinks now hes got a PV and vapes while he drinks! If he was addicted or not dosent matter at least when he drinks he vapes instead of smoking those nasty cigs!

Your 510 battery must be on steroids..just kidding I vape around 5mils a day.I done good to get a couple of hours off of mine.To me I had to learn to crawl before I could walk.It did not take me to long to figure out that a 510 battery was not going to cut it for me..

Yeah if I vaped 5ml a day the 510 wouldnt cut it for me, but works fine for my .5ml to 1ml a day vape. 5ml would last me a week! So the 510 with two battery's and a PCC is perfect for my needs!

Maybe I did vape some steroids thru it on accident!!! LOL

If a lot of kids start vaping, Uncle Sam will take your PV away from you, this forum will disappear and you will have to find some other place and subject to talk about.
