Advice needed re: switching smoking to vaping

[nuclearbroccoli]

So I sort of switched to vaping about a week ago. By sort of, I mean that I'm both vaping and smoking. The good news is that I've gone from about 25 analogs a day down to about 7 a day.
However, I want to switch over completely, but I have a problem. To explain, here's what my first 3 days went:

Day 1: Analogs smoked: 14
I was vaping only the last half of the day as the batteries in my 510 weren't yet charged enough.
Day 2: Analogs smoked: 7
Vaping in between analogs.
Day 3: Analogs smoked: 6
Vaping in between analogs

Which brings us to day 4...
Day 4: Analogs smoked: 3
Vaping in between analogs. This is the day my problem started...
I had an analog when I woke up around 5:30am, and vaped until about 10:30 am. At this point, I felt kind of funny. The best I can describe it was that I felt shaky INSIDE, and it felt like my heart was beating kind of funny. Of course, checking my pulse, my heart was beating normally.... I figured I was probably just vaping too much, and just kind of ignored it.
I went back to work, and everything seemed to settle down.

About 1pm, I started vaping again, and after a few minutes, I started feeling odd again, which I have to admit worried me a little. I smoked an analog to calm down a bit, and lo and behold, I felt absolutely normal again within 2 minutes of finishing the smoke.

My theory is that I'm probably not getting enough nicotine from vaping alone, and it was probably just nicotine withdrawl. So here's where I need advice, as I want to quit smoking analogs entirely.
I'm thinking that for a little while longer, I'll still smoke 6-7 analogs a day as well as vaping, and then drop one analog per day over a period of time in the hopes of minimizing withdrawl like I described above. I say 6-7 as I seem just fine at that level.
Does anyone have any experience with this?
Any opinions on whether that's a working approach, or whether I'm better off just going cold turkey on the analogs and dealing with whatever comes from that?
Would an e-cig that produces more vapor than my 510 help?

Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated!

Advice?

DON'T SWEAT IT!

E-cigs aren't a path to quitting, tho a lot of people have gone that way. (A good thing!)
I just use them as 1) It gives me the nicotine I crave, and 2) I get all these neat flavors to play with!!

I only *quit* analogs, as frankly, they're just not nearly as tasty!

Back to point.. Theres a lot of unanswered questions in your post, Too many to do here, but try the forums! Theres a lot of helpful people there.

Info that will help you figure out how to get the satisfaction you want..
1)What cigarettes were / are your favorite, and how many per day? (Helps us get a handle on your nicotine consumption level)
2)What mg "Juice" are you vaping, and what device (battery unit) are you using to do it? (helps us understand the power constraints of your system)
3) What (if any) issues do you have with juices or flavors (Hate Menthol, love menthol, hate sweet, love sweet, hate fruit, etc.. etc.. etc..) (This helps us figure out what kind of juice could help you, and better provide info on where to go, and what to try)

I know I didnt answer your question, but I hope it helps you to figure out better, more relevant questions that we can give more specific answers to.

Above it all, try, try, try! Theres so many wonderful, and high quality vendors out there now, dont be afraid! If you have a concern about a vendor, ask in the forums, or search.. Chances are theres been at least a few who have used that vendor before, and have written feedback. (Feedback you could add too, once you've tried said vendor.. Every bit helps the community!)

Welcome, and Happy Vaping! I hope it gives you the wonderful experience its given me!

Like Mend. says above, you have too many questions

Why not work through all the material in the InfoPages section here (top left button on the forum navbar), it is specifically for what you need.

You need more e-cig kit, and even more likely, a choice of different liquids.
