Analogs Poorly Designed -- Inefficient

[Reyth]

After a day and a half of vaping I have come to realize just how efficient clean nicotine really is.

With analogs (cigarette or pipe) I was constantly "racing the cherry" to get as much nicotine out as I possibly could before it all burned away.

Don't need to do that with my digital. I actually forced myself to put it down after every drag -- its just not necessary to hold it; I can take my time -- I have all the nicotine I want whenever I want it.

In fact it has become just like a cup of coffee; pick it up, drink it, put it back down...

i agree, i compare an analog to an energy drink. you get your rush, then crash hard soon after. thats due to adding ammonia to tobacco i believe (big tobacco business tactic) thats why i couldnt sit through a 2 hour movie without needing a cig. with the pv it seems to keep my nic levels higher for longer so i go half a work day without even thinking about it.

Good point. I found myself trying to smoke cigarettes as fast as I could just to get it all in and over with. I didn't even enjoy it anymore, just knew I "needed" it. Now, I can take my time, enjoy the taste (which I actually can taste things now!).

to the person who said they can actually taste things now, wow am i looking forward to that and being able to smell things will be another nice bonus. Just got my npro duo today and it is fantastic thus far. Good luck to you all and may us all lay our ancient analog habit down to rest for good

Lol, i guess analogs do seem poorly designed after vaping for a while. I guess thats why I never seen "analog" forums.

Analogs ar to vaping what open fire pits are to central heat and air, or what a clay tablet and stylus is to a word processing program. One is so far superior and smarter to use that it isn't worth comparing.

I saw some bs research on one of the US Universities about e-cigs stating that vaping does not increase nicotine level in the blood. So how the hell I am not craving for a cigarette anymore after only few days ?;o I was smoking for around 10 years. Maybe it's a little off topic but good question isn't it ? Another thing is I tried to smoke a cig after 5 days of vaping and I could not feel th at all and after only few drags it almost made me to vomit so I threw it away...

not to mention the dozens of carcinogens you were inhaling in the past

I completely agree. I just went to the movies the other night and after a few quick puffs I was fine for the whole movie. With analogs I'd start feeling edgy after about an hour or so.

Yay grats on getting off the analogs!

I went to the movies and one of the actors was smoking onscreen. I lowered my head, covered the led and took a quick puff. Nobody was the wiser and the edginess disappeared as quickly as the vapor!

I suppose there's a difference between nicotine that is inhaled with smoke and nicotine that's inhaled through vapor. I think it hits more directly, and satisfies for longer.

That's another thing I really like about vaping: its totally stealth -- no odor and nothing to light so a quick 5 seconds and your done.

Nice analogy, I'm going to have use that.
