How Long Do You Inhale For?

[Bozzlite]

Varies between 3-5 seconds.

 

[Verb]

2s-3s unless my battery is low (mech user) then a bit longer.

 

[3mg Meniere]

Two seconds repeated in quick succession.

 

[KattMamma]

Mostly about 2 seconds, according to my istick.

Thanks to this thread, I just tried to see how long I could comfortably draw, and got about 3.5 seconds. But I don't need that much vapor, so it's pointless. Am I missing something by taking shorter draws?

4-6 seconds at 14W

Depends upon what I am vaping. Probably 3 - 5 on average, plus I push the button before I start or as I start lifting my hand to warm up the coil first.

My REO heats up the coil near instantly. 2 second drag like a regular cig and I am blowing clouds like my avatar. .74 ohm micro coil.

 

[tmcguffie]

No puff counter/timer thing, but I'd guess 4 - 5 secs

Mostly about 2 seconds, according to my istick.

If it's working for you, you're doing it exactly the right way KattMamma

I vape on an RDA with 12mg nicotine. It hits way hard and I only take a 2 or 3 second hit. also, I only inhale enough to get a TH while the majority of the vapor is just there for the flavor. I vape more like I am smoking a cigar but that's just me. like someone said there is no standard.

The device is going to play a huge role in how long you puff on it, if you are vaping on something with a tight airflow and doing mouth-to-lung inhales then you'll probably be pulling on the device a bit longer than if you are using something with wide open airflow and a lot of power.

I do straight lung inhales on most of my attys and can fill my lungs in about 3-4 seconds, I rarely use my kayfuns anymore but when I do I go with a mouth-to-lung inhale which usually lasts around 6-7 second, although even with a 6-7 second long drag I still only get a tiny fraction of the vapor that I get from more open tanks in 3-4 seconds.

If you are getting a satisfying vape on a given device that's all that matters

i don't have the patience for all that. that's why i vape at around 80 watts. short pull like a cigarette and still the mouth and lung fill (feeling) like a cig. it just feels normal to me.

the long pulls with little results in vapor production get my anxiety up. anxiety over your inhale is the arch nemesis of an ex 4PAD smoker...
