one carto lasts me a whole day. i guess i don't vape enough :) i used to smoke marlboro ultra lights. smoked between 15-20 cigs per day.

wow, I can't seem to do less than like 5 to 10 carts a day.

maybe I need to higher the nic.
I'm doing 18mg now.

I was a marlboro red smoker for 30 plus years but switch to marlboro red mediums 4 years ago and ended up on marlboro 72's (the short ones) ultra lights.

so, I'm amazed I vape a great deal.

I still vape alot at home,but I notice now when Im out or busy I can go alot longer between vapes than I ever did with cigs.

This is exactly how it's working out for me, too. I think I like the flavors and I vape more because of that now, not so much because I need the nic. Started at 36mg and 5 months later am down to as low as between 18 down to 8mg and still no cravings to speak of.

At first, I think I did it constantly because it was so amazing that it kept the cravings at bay and I didn't want to experience them.

I can go several hours between vapes when I'm busy or out now.
 
Well I am using 11mg , the 18mg tends to be too harsh for me. I am not really having any nicotine cravings. A normal cart will last me a day, a premium will last me about 3/4 of a day. I dont have any nicotine OS symptoms, I just like to vape. I had a hard time quiting smoking because I liked it to much. I liked the act the taste and how it made me feel. Now I get to vape, the act is the same, the taste is better and I feel better. So I guess I will jsut be one of those vapers who vapes alot lol.

A bit more than a month off MLs completely, I vape 1-1/2 cartos per day. Usually 6-7 deep hits, whenever I used to smoke a cig, and I'm good to go. Evenings, though, I'll take 2-3 hits every 20 mins of so if I'm relaxing. And after reading this thread, I'll stop worrying about vaping too much! :D

My pattern is to begin the day with 18mg (tobac, Frapp, or Mint at the moment) and move to 11mg in the evening when I vape more often. As Aubergine said, I find that I no longer have that "itching" to take a hit like when I smoked cigs, so I sometimes vape more or less depending on my mood. Overall, haven't had any bad health effects, so the pattern continues.

Yeah, quitting cigs using V4L gear was just too darned easy for me. Almost nothing. When my friends and colleagues congratulate my strength and resolve, I try to look modest. My dirty little secret. :hubba:

I sort of got tired of sucking on these things all day long and made a homebrew of 47mg...which helps. Although, Dr. Eissenberg insists we are getting nothing vaping and most everyone here disagrees with the severely flawed study...I do agree with the New Zealand study that shows drastically reduced nicotine per puff when compared to a ciggie (10%). Also...you aren't getting all the other chemicals that contribute to the ciggie high.

Vape as needed.... :D

Ah, but he retested on himself using a Vapor King, and did find nicotine in his system:

i forgot to add - i used 0mg nicotine - no nicotine. just flavoring, vodka, and VG. i diy, but use v4l cartos. i hear the new premium cartos are better - will have to buy at least 20 of those :)

Well, newbie here, only about 2 weeks. I'm glad to know people are still doing it constantly, but I am wondering if you guys have any tips for me.

I can vape almost constantly and at times, I feel like "Man! I am just NOT GETTING ENOUGH!"... then I'll still grab an analog. I am doing 11mg and 18mg, and feel like I'm getting enough nicotine cuz sometimes I'll feel a slight headache. I am mainly feeling like I'm just not getting enough vapor for that full lung feeling. I'll change to a freshly charged battery, or fresh cart...that helps for a bit, but not long enough. Any tips on how to get more vapor?

Try topping off more.. Sometimes even that doesnt work for me, it all depends on the juice. The only time I really seem to get good vapor is when I am vaping margarita or red hot candy. Thats just me though... some people say to add a little vg? Never tried that though... What I do is add about 4-8 drops every 20 or so drags from my carto. Hope that helps!
