If giving up vaping means you're going back to cigs, then that's a bad thing. vape with the windows open and a fan blowing the vapor out the window and see if that helps. If you're in your room, hopefully she will be better about it. Either way, don't go back to cigs. Personally, I love vaping outside and now that the weather is getting better, I can't wait to grab a few craft beers and relax either on the deck, by my pool, or in the garage if it's raining. Good luck and find a way to make it possible.

Your living with grandma. Grandma doesn't like your vaping in the house.
You believe vaping and surfing the internet and other sundry activities are
are integral to your enjoyment of vaping.
You've pretty much have created your own self fulfilling out come. Trash all your
stuff as you mentioned in your OP.

    It is really odd how much flavor seems diminished by wind (to me) -- not just outdoors but with a fan or draft too somewhat ... it's not just the clouds, although hot and humid can be good for that actually. I even tend to keep the windows closed in my car. It just seems to blow the aroma away. Plus, maybe with smoking, the reduced stink blowing away overcame any other loss. But there's also an aspect of comfort and letting it affect your technique. It can be enjoyable at times.

    I've seen when people can't really smell it unless they see it and one time someone was disgusted by it without knowing what the source was, that time I agreed because really was a stinky aftersmell vape. Maybe your grandma is affected by a flavor? Or could just be refusing to breathe when it's there. Constant smell also has its own irritation. One question of course is there any other room, and any margin for error. A partial seal and constant airflow -- doesn't matter how much, just have to be constantly sucking a little air out of the house and expelling it -- is very effective.

    I feel for you.
    There is more to smoking and vaping than just physical nicotine cravings.
    There is a certain pleasure in being able to immerse yourself in a cloud of smoke or vapor.
    It is a bit of a retreat into your own self and cutting off from the world about you for a time.
    A bit of a smokescreen if you will, to give you a time to ponder and reflect.
    I prefer indoors as the vapor swirls about and has a certain way that inspires my imagination and thought.

    No, not a cloud chaser, I do that occasionally for fun though.

    I have to call this subjective.
    After 45 years of med-heavy smoking, I Vaped on smaller clearomizers for over a year and a half with little vapor, decent flavor and enough nic to satisfy my cravings.

    Sure I Like my RDA's and Dual coil tanks, but they were a progression and one I could have easily lived without. Retirement has caused me to become somewhat Vaping adventurous.

    I guess I'm at the other end, I hate filling my house up with vapor. If my son and I are both vaping I either quit or tell him to.

    Now we can sit on the porch outside and vape away, enjoying a bit of father son time without fogging up the den. It certainly doesn't negatively affect the experience or flavor.

    So to answer the OP question, freedom...That's how you can enjoy vaping outside. No worries upsetting your grandmother (which you certainly shouldn't be doing), you are your own man in the great outdoors. Be free, vape outside.

    My mother lives with me and does not enjoy the smell of some of my eliquids. I vape in my bedroom only, I have my computer, Television and recliner and can be very comfortable while vaping as I like. Sometimes we sit on the porch and drink our coffee in the morning and I vape downwind of her. She is happy that I am vaping and not smoking. I respect her with my vaping the same way I did with my smoking and I confine it where she is not bothered by it. OP I am sure you have your own bedroom, make yourself comfortable in there, close the door and crack a window or like someone said, make a spot in the garage or fix yourself a comfortable place on the porch. Otherwise, rather than tossing your gear, pass it along to someone who wants to quit smoking and can't afford the vaping gear.
