This is me exactly. So, either were both wrong or we've unlocked the secret :evil:

Well, add me to this club. I vape constantly, work is about the only time kinda I slow down, but I make up for it in the evenings, and I'm not going anywhere NEAR 3 mls a day, much less 4-5. Whatever the reason, I'll take it, less expensive.... :)

Probably every hour or so i do about 10 puffs. Maybe more when I'm bored.

Still on nOOb cigarette schedule

When I feel like it, for as long as I feel like it.

90th percentile answer

I pretty much vape constantly. My nicotine craving is fixed after a few puffs, but I still feel compelled to keep vaping anyway.

The stuff IS good, isn't it?

Personally, I always have a pv within arms reach. If I feel the need, I vape. It's been like that since I started. Approximately 3 ml a day at 18 mg.

Spoken like a vet

Sitting in front of the TV or computer ... like a fiend. When it's in my pocket and I'm walking around, about once every 5 to 10 minutes.

Another true vet.

My PV has always been within my reach for the past year. I usually pick it up every 5-10 minutes and puff probably three or four times- Good, solid vapes. More if I'm having a bad day, sometimes less. Sometimes when I'm watching TV it just stays in my hands but I use it about the same. When i'm at my workbench working here at home I hit it about 4 or 5 times every 30-60min. But when i'm drinking Whiskey I can't seem to put the darn thing down at all. lol.

I must be doing something wrong too. I usually carry my three cartos and a battery around, and the battery pretty much lasts all day. "Oh sure" you say. "That 1300mAh Ego is a monster." Only thing is, I am carrying an 808 380mAh battery. Or I was until my Tornado Christmas present. Anyways, I usually refill the cartos with about 3/4 of a ml every night. Lately with the Tonrado, I've been able to not totally empty the cartos before bedtime.

Was reading a thread a bit ago where someone said that an 808 battery only lasted about an hour for them. I must be doing something totally wrong. Or AM I??

To answer the question and not be a threadjacker, I usually hit mine two or three times about every half hour or so when at work, and probably every 5-10 minutes when I'm surfing the ECF at home.

Probably as often as when I smoked analogs. Several hits every 15 minutes, all day long.
But I must be doing something wrong since it's only about 2 ml per day.
Seems others here do more then that and must be vaping constantly.

Same with me. I don't really vape differently than when I smoked. Except instead of smoking a whole cig, I take a few hits, put it down and walk away. I don't carry it with me because I lose it all day when I do that.

I vaped more when I vaped lower nic, so I increased it. Except at night. If it's late I vape low nic.

I highly recommend that new vapers feel comfortable allowing themselves to vape continuously if that is what is needed to avoid cigarettes. It would be unlikely (difficult) to OD on the nicotine and they'd know it if they did and instinctively slow down -- it feels just like those late nights when you smoked twice as much as normal and felt like barfing.

In time they will find a comfortable medium, likely different for each person, just the way that we all smoked a different amount (even though there is, technically, an average) it would be impossible to determine how much someone else "should" vape.

That being said: I go through about 2-3 pre-filled vapor4life cartos per day at 36mg. If I'm at home I keep my e-cig tucked in my cleavage and have a puff or 5 every few minutes, at work I vape through my entire 1/2 hour lunch or 15 minute break but I can go for about 5 hours without cravings (unheard of when I smoked).

I hit one PV or another 2 or 3 times and set it down for a while and probably pick one up again with in 10 mins and repeat all day long I go through about 3-6ml of 4mg juice a day unless I'm doing something and I'm distracted then I can go 5 or 6 hours without thinking about it I could never go that long without a smoke. When I first made the switch I always had one in my hand I was vaping 36 and 24mg back then I didn't care I wanted it to work.
