It would be an understatement to say that this is not a good idea.

I'm praying that when you decided to try this you chose 0 nicotine, seeing as you are not a smoker? D: These products aren't recommended for those who do not smoke... There is no reason to become addicted to a substance like nicotine through a device intended for smokers as an alternative to smoking tobacco.

It just... does. not. compute.

Well you just need to understand that you're one of the people that no one on here really wants to see get into this. Most everyone here is using these to help break a life long addiction to cigarettes. That's why these were invented, to give smokers an alternative to the deadly addiction to smoking. You are actually one of the reasons that the FDA wants to ban the PV. One of their reasons is that these will lead people to smoking cigarettes.

Now please don't take this as a personal attack on you, it's just that this is such a life changing device for all of us and we don't want anything to prevent us from using it. Also no one on here wants anyone to pick up a habit that can be very hard to break, or could possibly cause health problems. For a smoker to use these damn near has to be healthier than the 4000 chemicals in cigs. But to a nonsmoker it's just a risky chance that there will be no health consequences to this.

Most people on this forum are very well aware that nicotine is addictive and want to make sure that you're treating that fact with respect. Addictions, and it is ADDICTIVE, aren't things to be taken on lightly.

That said, I'm all for what consenting people want to do on a voluntary basis.

I didn't pick up smoking analogs because it "was cool". I started doing it because the buzz of a cigarette was explained to me and I wanted to try it. I smoked and enjoyed the buzz. I kept doing it.

At some point, I realized even in the morning I wasn't getting that buzz because I had become a nicotine addict.

I think it's a little silly and disingenuous as people who like and respect the vaping hobby NOT to be honest about it. A non-smoker could pick up a PV with nicotine and find a pleasant buzz from it. The same buzz that kept us all choking down burning tobacco in the first place.

PVs aren't entirely intended to be a replacement for smoking. PVs are intended to be a means of delivering a controlled amount of nicotine and flavor to the user of it. Would I personally pick one up and vape nic if I weren't a smoker, probably not. But I'm not going to knock someone down or insult them if that's a choice they choose to make.

While I do understand all notes given here for a non-smoker picking up a vape, I can say in my 17yrs of smoking and my (going on) 2 weeks of vaping, I have met 2 people who are non smokers only for pure flavor.

One was never a smoker other than flavorer ones (the one that gave me my first peach smoke from France), the other was a smoker for 2yrs and quit at the drop of a dime (still never knew how he did it).

There is a chance this person just wants to vape to vape (no nicotine all flavor), chance, slim but still.
