how much did you vape each day when you started, and how much now?

Yup, its confirmed, I am the most boring person on the planet. Settled early at around 2.5ml @ 6mg with occasional high nic forays on hard stressful days going up to as high as 24mg for a few hits.

15 months later and its 2.5ml @ 6mg with occasional high nic forays on hard stressful days going up to as high as 24mg for a few hits.
The only real difference I am aware of, is that if I leave home without my PV it doesn't really "bother" me, although I admit to a very happy reunion when I return home!

Well, let's see. It used to take me all day long to smoke 4 packs. Sometimes there would be one burning in my hand and another burning in the ashtray, so the numbers could vary. There is an e-cigarette in my hand as I type this, and another one in my CLEAN ashtray, but it ain't burning. Since I don't have to waste my time lighting it, does that mean that I am vaping more often than I smoked?

LOL, That's me all over for 50 years. and my thumb is finally healed up from all those years of firing up the Zippo. especially after they came out with the self extinguishing analogs. I went from a chain smoker to a Yup, chain vaporer.:vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor::vapor:

I barely made 3 packs a day. I feel like a lightweight on here.
Like you, tho, the ashtray smoked a lot of those. :p I can get by on 5-6ml a day now. (6V uses more juice, but I do chain vape):vapor::vapor:

I burned those suckers up for 57 years and have a drawer full of wore out Zippos. I was using butane throwaways when the self extinguishing analogs were forced on us. I don't remember which brand of lighter it was, but I quit using one of them because of sore thumbs.

So, there you have if folks. Quit smoking and save your thumbs.

I smoked for over 40 years and quit cigarettes over a year ago. I began with 18mg and upped that to 24mg in short order. Although I was vaping almost continuously throughout the day, my appetite went through the roof and food cravings were a constant. I switched to 36m approximately six months ago and now supplement with Snus a few times a day.

It works for me.:)

when i started i got the highest mg's i could find 36 being highest. and i am not sure how much i was using. i eventually weaned myself down to 0mg's. i stayed for 2 weeks.
i have since increased the nic to 18mg's because i really like the throat hit, and for 'after dinner' too

when i started my doc was curious to know how much i was using, but at the time i was just trying to keep from jones'in. now that i am settled with good juice and good equipment i filled a bottle with 10ml to see how long i could go.

6 days - 10ml of 18mg's to 0mg's nic

Pacifier mode to times when it might be a few hours without hitting an ecig at all. (well, other than sleeping ;-) And down from 18-24mg to 8-12mg nic.

Although much of that is, imo, the result of vaping mods - Bartlebys, Protege and now tornados/eGos to where getting better vapor results in better absorption. But I'd still guess I'm getting less nicotine than at the start.
