How long are your draws/pulls? How long between them?

How much each puff varies in time. Mine usually reports by 2 to 3 seconds. So my puffs are consistent to like 13 seconds +/- 2 to 3 seconds.

The Standard Deviation for a Distribution is a Finite Number.

And if your Software is reporting the Standard Deviation of a Normally Distributed Distribution, that Isn't what the Standard Deviation tells you.

MTL is like sucking through a straw and can be independent of your lungs. Older DNAs you can set them up to 20 second firing. EScribe shows my average puff is 13 seconds. The iTaste SVD DNA20 was configured for 25 seconds.
Amazing draw time...

Draw and intervals between draws depends on nic mg level and on my own state of nicotine saturation.
2mg might find me at a 6sec draw with a shorter interval between draws. 5mg might find me at a 1.5sec draw with a larger interval between draws.
Being 6hours without vaping/nic will likely find me long deep urgent draws and short intervals initially and then tapering off to a more leisurely pace as nicotine saturation occurs.
If I'm 2hrs past my last session quite possible my draws will be gentle with a leisurely interval.
As with smoking it's all about nicotine absorption and the affect that is desired frm the nicotine, fire up and energize or calm down.

I tend to take short fast puffs around 2.5 seconds. I also sometimes will take a series of two or three second long puffs for a single inhale when using mouth to lung.

As far as how long between it depends. I generally will vape 2-3 puffs back to back and the wait a couple minutes, vape some more and stop when I feel satisfied. About an hour later I repeat the process.

On MTL, which counts for 90% of my vaping time, I take an average draw of 3.5 to 5 seconds. I do repeat after 15-20 seconds if chain vaping freely.

I checked this pattern on a DNA75C device with 35000 hits, which provide an historical record of my vaping.

When DTLing on a 0.2 Ohm mesh coil, draw length is 5-6 seconds, repeat after 30 seconds. Power is ten times higher, vaping on two and three cells devices only.
Entire DTL session lasts 4 - 5 minutes, as I only cloud-chase outdoor.

Timings and intervals when TC vaping are different, shorter draws and more frequent usually.
When vaping with Replay function on DNA devices, I find that my vaping became extremely repetitive, with puffs all the same length and repetition rate, mimicking smoking a tobacco cigarette.

In cold weather, I often pause and release vacuum from tank, to facilitate wicking of more viscous e-liquids.

Battery-wise, I avoid to discharge batteries below 40 - 50%, especially internal battery devices; so their life is much extended.

Between 2 - 4 seconds long, and usually the same between pulls. It depends upon the wattage setting and the type of draw technique the atomizer requires for the tank I'm using.

I change my gear setups throughout the day. My Crown tanks are pretty much wide open and being vaped at 30 watts, so the length of time of the draw is about 4 seconds. My Geekvape Cerberus tank is set to be more restrictive and being vaped at 25 watts with a 2 second pull.

How long between?
TBH, I have no idea. I use a mech squonker so it doesn't count puffs.

I guess it depends on my mood and what I'm doing. I spend most of each day at a desk in front of a computer. I pick it up and take a drag when I feel like it. It might be as little as 15 seconds, but probably averages more than that.
