How long do your carto's last you?

[Doc Florida]

Just got my kit yesterday and I went through four of them. I got really low nic carto's (8mg) and seem to constantly vape away. Just placed an order for the 18mg carto's and liquid, hopefully that will do the trick. Just wondering how many of these do people go through in a day (whether they are fresh or dripped) and what strength do you get?

 

[pianoguy]

I go through about 2.5 per day - lately I've been using 11's in Smilin' Menthol, or refills of other flavors in the 10-12mg range.

I can use 1 if I top it off a few times.

 

[V4Lis4me]

bout' 2 a day, 36mg....

but i top off sometimes and then use filled ones and refilled ones.... so the actual number is getting more and more hazy for me...

 

[freerangehuman]

Not long enough...
I blaze thru 2 or 3 a day. 18 or 24mg

I must be a total vapeaholic or I do it wrong. I can go through 1 cart in 2 - 2.5 hrs easy! Usually if I vape on it any longer than that, it starts burning. I vape constantly...guess it is still a novelty but I love the flavors I make and I vape very low nic levels. I recently started just keeping 20 filled at all times so I didnt have to fill 5 or 6 EVERY DAY! Loooong, sloooow, drags....

Wow - I must be a lightweight! An 18 mg. on one standard auto chrome battery lasts me most of the day, then I switch to a 4 or 8 mg. for the evening at 7-ish so I don't get too amped up to sleep. Then I use the previous day's 18 for a least a partial day the following day.

And I feel as thought I may be vaping more than I smoked because it's so much more socially acceptable.

And it taste better,

Oh, I smoked about a pack and a half a day of Marlboro Menthol full flaver, Pall Mall Menthol full-flavor, or L&M Menthols... whichever I could find most cheaply. I quit analogues in October when I bought a (really crappy) e-cig kit (Cigotine brand) at the State Fair of Texas and haven't looked back.

That kit was $130 for two auto batteries and 15 cartomizers. One battery died within a week and I could never get the company to respond to a warranty claim.

I found V4L through the wonderful reviews on this forum --- and their terrific pricing and fantastic customer service keep me loyal. I have handed out many, many V4L cards. And my niece and nephew quit analogues when they received V4L starter kits for Christmas.

Dang, how small are your carts on that thing? I use 801 carts on my stick and I usually go through 1.5 carts in a day, but they're 1.2ml carts, I believe.

I used to have the Blu, which looks a little like the VK, and I could go through 5 carts a day on that thing easy.

I ordered the Knight Stick trial offer, and liked it, waiting now for a 510, don't know anything about the E-Cig. thingie, trying to understand the jargon used in post.
What is a atty. I think I have that right?
Smoking since Washington crossed the Potomic, about time I put those bad guys down. From time to time I will be asking stupid questions, please excuse me.
Thanks.

I'm to the point that I use about 1 a day, but I still feel as though I vape way too much. I'm thinking that after I finally receive this order I'll drop from 18/11 to majorly vaping 8 and keeping 11 for those specific cravings.

Although I still want to pick up a pack of Smilin Special Menthol in 36 just in case I'm having a really stressful day. It's stupid how good that menthol is, and I wasn't even a menthol smoker.

 

[Desertfremen]

I vape about 2 mL a day (or 2 cartos) as long as I stay with 24 mg carts. I used to smoke 1-2 packs a day. To me it seems like I'm vaping less than I smoked.

 

[Taryn]

2 cartomizers a day for me!

 

[Darrigaaz]

Wow! 1 8mg carto lasts me 2 full days. Just 2 months ago I was smoking 1 1/2 packs a day. Started on 8mg carts and never felt the need to go up. I pick 4 carts on Sunday, and those last me until next Sunday when I replace those 4 with fresh/refilled ones. I just like to carry 4 different flavors around at a time.

 

[sentrarob]

Maybe half a day

 

[Synthnadz]

In my high voltage devices (Xhaler and Prodigy V2), a full carto lasts me an hour or two, generally speaking. So for those of you feeling bad about going through a few cartos a day, don't feel so bad. I often go through 4-5 cartos a day here. Fortunately, I make my own juice. ;-)

 

[TheVTech]

I share between 3 a day but those 3 last 2 days with top offs. Over vaping will make them hot so I let them sit and start another then top the one off I used then go back to it later.

 

[RiskyBusiness]

2-3 per day sounds about right... and since the prices dropped, that's only $4-$6 daily, or about a pack of cigs...

Welcome Haytoni! There are no stupid questions, you're just starting out and I know it can be baffling! Just read and research the different forums on the main ECF page and it'll come to you. I was a pack a day or more smoker for 38 years and if I can do this anyone can
