It's been a few months since I posted here having fell off the wagon and returned to smoking 'analogs'. I doubt I'm the only sinner and wonder what other miscreants make of my observations:
It's been a few months since I posted here having fell off the wagon and returned to smoking 'analogs'. I doubt I'm the only sinner and wonder what other miscreants make of my observations:
1. Returning to smoking after months of vaping started with a pack of 10 lasting a few days. A few weeks later and I was smoking much more heavily than I ever did. The convenience of vaping carried across or had I been dosing myself with too high a nicotine level? Either way, Im now smoking almost twice what I was before I first quit. I thought Id just post this observation not to criticise vaping but to see if others have had similar experiences. I still believe vaping to be the most effective alternative to smoking and is far healthier than analogs. In just the few months of returning to sin Ive noticed health effects. I had been using max strength liquid supported by a series of batteries that allowed me vape pretty much constantly. This was probably unwise but it's plain daft 'smoking' in that way.
2. I put falling off the wagon down to (in increasing order of importance); bereavement, a militant workforce, losing more money in the financial meltdown than I could ever smoke, the wife crashing the car (and her being OK!), institutionalising the parents-in-law, the insane amount of fiddly things e-cigs need and the devastation caused when my stereo broke!
The stereo is now fixed but Im determined to share what little wisdom Ive gained from this experience:
The e-cig setup needs simplified particularly battery charging. E-cigs typically charge one battery, these batteries have insufficient power and before long vaping has you carrying around a handbag full of atomisers, liquid, carts, charger and backup devices thatd have you rubber gloved if you tried taking it through an airport! Going away overnight requires a check-list and a bank of charged batteries that you can only get by having a second charger.
Improving atomiser reliability may be some time off but there is absolutely NO REASON I can think of for the absence of chargers capable of recharging several batteries at the same time. Even going out for a night requires a few fully charged batteries. The e-cigar that used standard rechargeable batteries that I could charge 4 at a time became my preferred device but then its atomiser quit.
Vaping a cigar didnt suit my personality Im not fat, Im not bald and the bankers have made sure Im not wealthy either. I think a pipe should suit my needs but I dont want to have to buy a new one every time the atomiser fails. This pipe needs a sturdy standard re-chargeable battery that I can recharge in 4s or at least 2s.
Does such a product exist. The aim is simple I want a device that doesnt require constant battery attention.
