i was at least a pack a day puffer of Marlboro Menthols for 20 years prior to purchasing my first e-cig. i've sampled various juices, mostly 18mg to 24mg, only to find myself literally chain-vaping...literally all the time. it's a rare occasion for ten minutes to pass between hits...and my hits are usually three to four healthy puffs. before i leave for work, i fill three carts, one on the atty and two in reserve...they're all three done for in 5 hours or less. any thoughts on this?

Well... initially you may chain vape. OR you might chain vape if you find a juice you really like.

But in general... I think it will trail off as time goes by. My own experience is that I no longer over vape.

I have been chain vaping for 6 months and never felt better! Go to lower nicotine levels.

Pardon me for saying so (you won't mind at all when you're 40), but it's a little unsettling to hear someone who doesn't look much older than their chain vaping experience--and wearing a Santa hat--to be giving nicotine-dose recommendations.

That picture can't be you.

yeah, i haven't even got my morning buzz that i used to get. maybe i should try upping the nicotine a bit? the highest i've gone is 24mg...

That buzz might have been the carbon monoxide in combustible cigs. you won't get the same thing from e-cigs no matter how high you go.

I've found that I keep my eGO in my mouth like a pacifier! I'm trying to consciously taper off a bit, but it's hard when the taste is so good! I've gone to a lower nic level liquid and have had less epidsodes of feeling a little naseous or dizzy. I do think that some of my dizziness was just the constant inhaling/exhaling with long slow deep breaths.

You could consider keeping a cartful of a higher nic juice for those times when you want your 'nic buzz', but then continue using the lower nicotine for the chain-vaping. It's easy enough to swap out the carts so this wouldn't be real difficult, and you could just mark the high octane cart.

I am also a chain-vaper, but only at the 12-16 nic levels....But, still it is nothing for me to go through
3-4 carts on a hour drive...and of course, this includes dripping....LOL...
Just relax and as long as you don't experience any ill-effects, you are fine...and besides,,,all the
limited data suggests that nic is no more dangerous then caffine....In other words,,,you will know
if you overdue it....Take care...and of course....Enjoy the Adventure...

Hehehe--No that´s not me. That´s one of my boys that hated how I smelled and let me know it! He´s one of big reasons I quit. He thinks vaping is much better for me than those stinky cigarettes!

I chain vape most of the time. I've worked my way down to zero nic over the last 2 1/2 months since I gave up the analogs. But I have a bottle of 16mg stuff for when I have the nic fits or just have one of those "Dammit I need a cig" moments. I can usually go a whole day now without hitting the high octane stuff. Not really trying to get off the nicotine, just finding I don't really need it as much as time goes by. Most people don't seem to give it up as easy as i did though so your mileage may vary.

I chain vape 36mg juice almost everyday. When I first started vaping I did get a little jittery but that went away after I cut back to 24 mg for awhile.


Then some bad stuff ( real life sucks hehe ) happened and the urge for an analog was so bad I had to go back to my 36mg juice. Didnt smoke an analog and Im doing fine on 36mg but I am chain vaping it.

I chain vape constantly. I used to chain smoke too. 2pad was about what I would smoke. I chain vape.. and literally the thing is in my mouth or in my hand and not 5 minutes goes away without at least 1 major puff on it. And I vape 24mg, can't go much lower or else I get headaches. I think you will be fine as long as you don't make your self sick off of too high nic
