Honestly if it keeps me off the stinkies I don't really care if its a hobby or an addiction. It is far less damaging.

As for paranoia about batteries. Other than planning ahead in the even of a hurricane I find I am not sweating dead battery nearly as much as I used to sweat being down to my last couple of cigs and running out in the middle of the night for another pack.

when I first got my LT V2 with a 7ml tank I was going through a whole tank a day but 15-20 is pretty high unless you've got a beast of a vapor producer or you're trying to become part dragon.

I average 3 x 3.5ml tank fill ups, and a good number of drops switching between boges daily. I do take my tank off and wipe my battery dry multiple times throughout the day, so maybe its less. I do however fancy dragons.

For you, i'd say both. Personally, I don't believe I am addicted. I tend to vape about 5 days a week, but I can go days without vaping. I mainly vape for the flavor, and the nic helps keep me from going bat..... I actually haven't vaped at all today, which is the first time in about a week. If it was an addiction, i'd be clawing somebody's eyes out right now! To me, this is just an amazing hobby. It give's me a reason to pull out the multimeter and the soldering iron and have some fun. I've always loved building things, now I can build things I use on a daily basis! (and that does include rebuilding my atty.)

BTW I'm starting Vapers anonymous. It sure as hell is addicting seeing what your putting into yourself is nicotine which last i checked is addictive. Hobby, well I spent more money than i said i initially was going to spend and i surf for deals on a daily basis, I'm dream of making THE TITANIC(R) Mechanical Mod that will make you feel like your on top of the world then hit you like Glacier. I must say it becomes both when your satisfaction level from vaping gives you a vapgasm. :laugh:

When I first started vaping - I bought and tried many things - but after 6 months are so, I found the set-up that best suited me given the stare of current technology. Now, it is very rare I buy anything new, only when I come across something I believe might be a major improvement. So, it is not really much of a hobby, and though I am addicted to nicotine - i am addicted to e-cigs only as the healthiest and cheapest way of getting nicotine -

You know, it's weird. I love vaping when doing any kind of intellectual work, reading, writing papers, etc. I vape heavy when I do, as well, getting significantly "high" while doing it. However, I never find myself experiencing physical cravings like one would expect from an addicted person. I can go several days without it and be just fine, even after weeks of daily use. Makes me wonder precisely how addictive nicotine actually is.
