Hi all, I was just wondering if any of you have quit cigs but turned into a complete vapor freak. And I mean take your PV to bed and freak out when you don't have a batt with a fresh charge ready. I never seem to be satisfied unless I am chain vaping. I never put my PV down unless I am typing on the PC and even then a PassThrough is at my disposal. I take my PV to the bathroom when I shower and will freak out if I leave and don't have a bottle of juice and at least 2 carto's and 2 batts....Ya know just in case!... I do smoke cigs every now and then and they are WONDERFULL!!! I dunno if vaping is so good for me anymore since its like taking over my life. Please let me know if I am not alone.....

Yes and no.

I have become some what of a chain vapor. I used to wear my PV around my neck and carried it AND a bottle of juice everywhere. The only reason I don't now.. is because I wore the lanyard out! lol. However, I tend to vape in spurts. I chain vape constantly, then I'll put it down for long periods of time.

I also kept smoking for several months. Eventually, once I found my perfect vape and set ups, cigarettes no longer appealed to me.

Gretzkys = Blech!!!:evil: It didn't take me very long to not want them anymore, it turns out I don't like the taste of tobacco too much -- but yes, I am very .... about having all my crap with me when going anywhere as I chain vape also and the stress of the dead battery with no replacement is my biggest fear -- but years of having extra packs of smokes and carrying around 3 lighters means I already had the habit of keeping my dupa covered!!:laugh:

Yes and no. I do chain vape when I'm at home. In fact, right now I have an Ego PT at my left and two KR808's in my pocket. On the other hand, while I was a full-flavor smoker at a pack a day, I now am consuming nicotine at a much lower volume per puff. My net nicotine intake by my estimation has dropped by 860%.

Like many who have discovered vaping, I no longer find the chemical taste of cigarettes to be appealing. In fact, stinkies/analogs now disgust me and make me nauseated if I try to smoke. Vaping gives me a big ol' box of flavors from which to choose, and I'm still in the stage where I want to try as many flavors/vendors as I can without filing for bankruptcy.

When I'm out and about, I do carry a PCC with me and a couple extra cartomizers, plus a fully charged battery/carto. I only drip at this point, at home.

My name is Lois, and I'm an addict.

I was a chain smoker and now I'm a chain vaper.

I was 3 yrs old when my parents "forgot" my bottle on a road trip to Florida and sucked my thumb until I was 10. Broke out of that habit and took up cigarettes 5 years later. I didn't start out chain smoking but ended up there until the end of last August when I discovered e-cigarettes. I burned through 3 packs a day. Most of it was a prop, something to hold in my hand, but oral gratification was also a large part of it. The return of my bottie/my thumb. So I've continued that juvenile behavior with vaping. I stopped smoking on my 3rd day with a 510 PT but have mostly chain vaped ever since. I have many batteries but my go to-s are definitely my eGo PTs. I work on the computer (having one in my office and a laptop in my living space) and in front of either one for hours in a day and the convenience of having one right there, without the bother of recharging makes it a natural for me. When I go out, I have an auto kr808d-1 for my car with a car adapter and I carry either my large ego automatics or kr808d-1s with me. It is a pleasure to vape in bed without the fear of burning down the house.

I am as paranoid about being without a PV as I had been with cigarettes. The fear of running short and being stuck in the house with no way to buy more, so I would always have a stash of packs on hand, and when I started to make my own, I always had plenty of tubes and tobacco. Ergo, I have many batteries that are charged and waiting in case there is a power outage, like the one I had last winter. I was almost 3 days without power. The thought of not being able to vape positively frightens me.

I have a pt next to me and an EGO/pv around my neck at all times . . work . . .car . . . home. I have an EGO case in my purse with extra everything, a bottle of juice rolling around my purse 'just in case', and a charger and juice in my desk at work. I make sure I am stocked up everywhere once a week and don't really have to give it much thought after that.

It really made my life simpler once I found the longer lasting batts. No more constant charging.

I still smoke once in a while but I am not sure why. I HATE the taste. :)

In the house and car, I chain-vape at least in the sense that it's always within easy reach like a perpetually lit cigarette in the ashtray. But I seem to notice I don't drag as frequently as I would with a cigarette. Typically, I pick it up and take a couple good drags, then not again for a few minutes, as compared to the way I (and I guess everybody else) would get in a dozen or so drags off a cigarette in five minutes or so.

I still smoke: positively love the two I have, the second right after the first, in the early morning; the two or three I typically have in the course of an evening, not so much. I envision myself, at 85, finally cut down reliably to just two. But from 25 (30 at an earlier peak) down to 5 suits me OK for now.

I dont think we actually chain vape...we just dont take vape breaks per say. instead of four 5 minute breaks an hour, its like 1 minute breaks every 5 minutes. Just more consistant throughout day. But I'm with everyone else, PV dont leave my site, and backup PV must be under same roof/in same car. Nothing new though as I remember my pack in dash with lighter, 3 more lighters and 2 more packs in armrest, and 4 more packs, 2 more lighters in glove box....THEN in the house...you get the idea. The hardware has changed, but the habit aint changed a bit, short of stopping at a gas station strictly to get "gas" now.
