Do you Vape more than you smoked?

[Elizabeth Baldwin]

That tends to be a sign that your nic level is too low.

Not really! I lowered my nic level to 6mg just so I could chain vape. It's by choice with some of us.

Was a PAD smoker. Now I vape continuously, but am only using 4-5 ml a day of 18mg juice. If I was chain smoking as much as I vape, I'd probably be dragin' an O2 bottle around with me.

 

[Marc411]

I would say I vape more but it's purely based on the incredible flavors. I'm down to 6 mg so I'm feeling pretty good about the whole thing right now.

It is amazing how much flavor is in the juice compared to what I was smoking and to cut down and save money was just the icing on the cake or on the flavored vape lol..I don't miss the hacking cough and sore chest in the morning..

I know I vape more than I smoked (simply because I don't feel the need to go outside). But I also don't believe I am getting more nic because of the larger water vapor molecules. I don't think I am absorbing as much. Really doesn't matter either way because I have desire to stop vaping or lowering my nic. Good luck to you and happy vaping.

Though I have started getting weird dreams

I call those nicotine dreams. In reality they are probably cigarette dreams. They will pass. I had them also. They woke me up a couple of times and I was very mad because thought that I was smoking.

 

[Seann.V91]

yes, because it's delicious.

Hardest part is dreaming I got up and got the grandkids off to school, only to actually wake up and realize I now need to drive them..

Yes. Vaping has brought out the chain smoker in me. I always knew it was there, I just kept a lid on it when it was cigs. I vape a combo of 0 and 3 nic with the idea of bringing it down to zero as I use up my 3. I started vaping at 6, which is now noticably too strong, so I am getting somewhere. I'll probably keep some 3 around just in case. My plan is to make vaping something I do for relaxation, much like a lot of guys smoke cigars. I'll work on this once I am consistently at 0. Don't know if I will be able to break the act of smoking/vaping habit though, even at 0 nic. I just like it too much.

Just one more drag on my Vanilla Custard now...

It's hard to say. Like others here, I vape in places I didn't smoke, like at work or in my house.

I am probably taking more puffs off a PV than I did cigarettes, but I'm not so sure I'm actually consuming any more nicotine. There's no way to make a 1:1 comparison.

 

[snarfies]

Yes, in the sense that I didn't smoke at all.

I vape 0 nicotine.

 

[ForeverDiving]

Was 1PAD, having 1 every hour or 2.

So you have 30 hour days... (Does not compute)

I am vaping more than I smoked.

I was smoking between 8 and 16 small cigars a day. Now I vape as often as I can but I switch between 24 and 28mg juice.

 

[baseballmom]

yeah, probably...there was a more formal beginning and an end to a smoke break, plus the nic was a different hit/stronger or something for me-vape 6 mg now, a nice place and I feel great not smoking anymore too! plus vaping is much nicer in the flavor department.

 

[kgevans]

Hard to equate smoking and vaping. In terms of nicotie, I vape am exposed to about 80% less while vaping. In terms of exhaust gases, I am churning out way more vaping than I did smoking because I vape 6-8 ml per day. My PV is handy all my waking hours.

 

[dale1962]

I have chained vaped now for almost 5 yrs and never felt better ...but definately vape more than smoked(1/2 to 1 PAD)and I vape 18mg.

 

[fraychek]

Yes. I also vape more than I used to eat and I'm down nearly 20 pounds.

 

[Vlad1]

I'm certainly vaping more than I smoked. Mainly due to vaping in car, house etc.. that I didn't smoke in when I smoked. The problem I have is I cant quantify how much nicotine I'm actually vaping compared to cigs. I switch flavor 4-6 times a day because I get tired of the flavor after awhile. It's nice and tasty when I change over but after a bit grows kind old to me. I have dropped down to 18mg from 24 but I have no idea how many ml's I go through in a day. Guessing between 5-8 but could be much more or less. Only way I can think of to know for sure would be to measure the juice each day. And that doesn't sound like much fun so I"ll just vape on until I'm outa juice

I smoked an average of a pk a day... usually about 15 a day in the winter, maybe 25 a day in the summer... of ultra-lights, for the last 20 or so years. For the last 16 yrs, I always went outdoors to smoke, which cut me down from 3 pks a day at one point.

Now I vape all day, pretty much constantly; in the daytime, 9mg, and after dinner, 6mg. I know I get less nicotine than I did from cigarettes, because nothing inside moves very fast anymore, unless I live on beans and bran muffins. Frankly I'd rather just vape more and drink more water.

But there really is no comparison, unless you have a job with defined smoke breaks. I had to smoke outdoors, periodically, I vape indoors, constantly. Smoking a pk or less per day cost at least twice, maybe 3 times, what vaping 6ml or so per day costs, while providing far less pleasure and far more cancer. No comparison, really.

I think I vape around the same as I smoked. But the big difference is if I have to go say 3 hours without a vape I don't get freaked out. Like tonight it was busy at work and I didn't have a chance to vape for the first 2 hours or so. I didn't even notice, where with analogs I would have been going nuts.
