6ml a day is about average I'd say - depending on the device you are using. I can go through 2ml or 15ml depending on device, what I am doing and my mood.

But, I agree, finding a less expensive source or even making your own are definitely worthwhile. I enjoy making my own liquid and it saves me enough money that I can afford to buy a bottle or two of 'high end' stuff every now and then to try.

Don't forget too that as clearomizers and other toppers produce more flavor and vapor, they will use more liquid. A CE4 (2.5ml) would last me more than a day when I first started, now I can easily vape 2.5ml in less than an hour with an RDA.

If it bothers you, you might try to increase your nic level so you vape less - just a suggestion.

I have a VTR Itaste with the clearomizer that came with it. I vape 6mg and have for months now.

6mg is perfect for stretching;
for the last year I bought 24mg liquid and and mixed it 1:3 with a 90/10 mix of glycerin and bottled water (I can't get PG locally where I am)

If you can get PG (farm supplies), you can make your own base mix of 50/50 PG/VG.
If you buy 12mg instead of 6mg, you mix your liquid one-to-one with the PG/VG base and cut you liquid $cost$ in half
If you buy 24mg instead of 6mg, you mix your liquid 3-to-1 with the base, and cut your $cost$ by three quarters.

These days now that I use drippers, I just mix glycerin and 10% water and that's my main vape; occassionally I add a drop or few from a $purchased$ bottle of eliquid to my dripper, and that's really all I need to use.

My problem is if the cig is upside down in my pocket the juice leaks out , I hate that

what kind of tank is it?
if you use one of the common bottom coil tanks, keeping them upside down is perfect for NOT leaking.
But if you just have one of the starter ce4 topcoils, yes upside down is not good.

Don't forget to breathe normal air, girl! You might also want to try using a fork to eat your food and put the vaporiser down a bit...

I chain vape like mad on a Russian, Kayfun, Nautilus and a few other Aspires and I'm not halfway to sucking up that much juice. 30mL lasts me a good 2 weeks. I do keep some juices with higher nic for after meals and when having a beer. Makes quite a difference. Typing with 2 hands also helps...

I was serious when I said I think my ejuice is evaporating on its own. Lol I am going to pay attention to how much I actually puff on my ecig because I swear I don't live with this thing in my mouth 24 /7.
I only vape one brand and one flavour. I am starting to think it just evaporates. Sounds crazy I know :unsure:

At this time of year, I wouldn't blame the weather for evaporation. I have about 8 tanks with liquid in them on my desk, plus 2 I carry with me, and they don't seem to evaporate (anywhere between 70/30 PG/VG to 60/40 VG/PG). Some juices do contains a little water, but not all that much. Intriguing case, this is... :Yoda:

If you are using an Iclear 30s, those tend to be pretty thirsty. I was going through about 6 ml a day when I used them. At the time I was making 18 ml juice. Now with the dripper, I am at about the same amount, but vaping 6 ml instead. You should try making your own. It can be a little frustrating at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's actually quite fun, and MUCH cheaper. I made 14 ounces of my favorite recipe last time I made juice for about $40. That should last a few months.

You're not crazy. I did a experiement with this tobacco juice I make. I use glass bottles and I made up a 15 ml bottle of it. I have not touched it and noone else has either. After just a couple of weeks of sitting it is only half full now. No leaks ..So it can happen.

That is why I don't make my juice in bulk anymore. Just what I need for a week or 2.

    That's very strange you are getting evaporation, through a glass capped bottle.
    Are you sure someone's not hitting your stash?...
