e-cigarette question

[Krogan]

Hey, first time e-cigarette user here. From what I've read online, you don't actually have to inhale the vapor just let it sit in your mouth and exhale. However, I don't get the full flavor this way and it seems strange for me using it like this. Also, it did say inhaled if desired. So, what I've been doing is holding the power button down for 4-5 seconds and slowly taking the vapor inside my mouth then inhaling through my lungs just a slight bit hardly at all for the blueberry flavor and quickly exhaling through my mouth. Questions is: Is this the right way of doing it? It has been working great I just want to make sure I'm getting the full effects / not damaging my lungs doing it this way.

Hi Krogan ... I began using e-cigs on July 2nd and use them just like a tobacco cigarette as far as drawing, inhaling and exhaling. As a matter of fact, that "throat hit" upon inhaling is what has helped me (so far) not pick up a tobacco cigarette since. You do not say if you were/are a tobacco cigarette smoker before. I'm not sure just holding the vapor in my mouth would give me the nicotine satisfaction as effectively as inhaling does. Are you using e-cigs for the nicotine?

Wow, I just read what I think you must have read under "inhalation techniques ..." Guess I learn something new every day! I have been reading on this forum all day long. There is just an awesome and somewhat overwhelming amount of great information here.

I have been vaping for 7 weeks and I do a partial inhale because it just isn't satisfying to me to just hold the vapor in my mouth. I like the throat hit and the feel of inhaling vapor. I think whatever works for YOU is what is right

Your technique sounds spot on to my knowledge. I tend to take long drags and immediately inhale a lot from habit, but more and more I let it sit in my mouth then blow vape rings on the exhale let some go through your nose. Our lungs don't absorb vaped nicotine nearly as efficiently as smoke. As far as the flavor most places I've gotten liquid from, both online and B&M, will add extra flavor for you free. Can't hurt to ask.

Uhhh....I'm not sure if you can damage your lungs with vaping as long as ur doing it in moderation. My doctor gave me his approval of vaping stating that its better than smoking. I suggest finding a company that sells Organic 100% VG liquids with no artificial flavors or coloring. Just run a search for 100% VG eliquids. I try to avoid vaping PG liquids cause I'm allergic to PG. In answer to your question, the way I vape is to take a puff, fully filling my mouth with vapor, and then I fully inhale into my lungs, and then exhale, do not hold it in your lungs, just exhale immediately. Hope that helps.

back in the seventies when i started smoking if you didnt inhale your friends called you a puss , i think it still stands true today and by the way ive heared thru the grapevine its like 100 times less lethal than cigs

Vapour won't damage your lungs, though inhalation isn't necessary for absorbing nicotine. Better absorption in the lungs IMO, but it's nice for cigar smokers who just want the mouth/throat hit.

French inhale is really niice if you can get that down. GREAT for flavour as well!

It's a good question by the OP. You never know until you ask!

if it works for you then its the right way, personally i like the throat hit so inhale

For me as I'm sure many of you out there. I inhale to my lungs to get the throat hit like a stinky which is a big factor in my quitting process. Just don't try to ghost it. That's probably not the best thing haha I find inhaling and holding in for a brief second let's you get the full throat hit them blow out.
