Welcome Merger8, vaping for pleasure and/or necessity? Did you used to smoke?
Hey NewellVW, I would say Both, ive defiantly fallen into the nicotine addiction lol, i was a pack a day smoker, and really had no real reason to quit, yes i know all the health concerns and what not but i did enjoy it... but out here in victoria BC ciggerettes are 10bucks/20pack and i smoked a pack a day,
when i attempted to quit using the ecig i had a cheap little ego with a top wick tank, and it didnt do anything for me..24mg id puff on it for a while and then have a smoke,
then when i was down in the states for a while i picked up Hawaii's Volcano brand ecigs, and i found it was working fantastic, with some on and offs, i went a total of 27 days with out smoking, (unfortunately a very disasteris event happened (no one died so it was good) and i went back to smoking 1. 1 and a half packs a day... after about a month of that i found a deal on one of those totally wicked mini mechanical mods, (tank was garbage but i just used the volcano tanks with them) and just went back and fourth with the smoking and vaping, and it was like that for a while (i also had some issues with coils drying up on me and it just became unpleasant.
Recently tho its been well 2 weeks (monday - thursday) smoked friday - saturday at the car meets, (for some reason at the car meets smoking is just so tempting (but today i just came back from the car meet this week with out smoking a cig)
well im kinda blabeling on right now but i shall continue

theres the whole money aspect where $350 vs $60ish speaks for its self but ive noticed i enjoy vaping over cigarettes, yes i know all the health benefits but the real reason im just only vaping now is because i enjoy it more.
i am a heavy vaper tho, currently on 12mg, but im thinking its a bit much for me so going to cut back down to 6mg
so really all and all i would think its due to pleasure just for the fact that i only switch because i enjoy it more
