Its very convienant at home when I'm on my computer. It's getting kind of chilly outside in Savannah so It's nice vaping indoors :D

I can no longer vape in public buildings where I live because of this stupid "breathe easy" law that was passed. It banned e-cigs and cigarette use in public buildings like bars.The mall kiosk sellers at the mall must be super ......, I'm sure that hurt sales.

The only time I find it NOT convenient is when I'm using it around cigarette smokers, I still feel a little self-concious busting out a weird e-cig D:
Sometimes I'll try to smoke a cig just to fit in... yeah I'm lame.

But I totally agree, I love vaping :D

If it wasn't so convenient, I'd be smoking. It has to be easier to turn to than lighting up.

I agree and especially for teen smokers who need to get off cigarettes. Give a Teen a PV - Save a Life Today !

I think they would be tickled to death to be able to get their fix in a much safer way and enjoy being able to do it more places than smoking. It will save their life. The convenience factor would be huge with teen vapers. It's what will help teens the most when trying to quit smoking.

Think of the implications. The more teens who vape, the more the vaping world will grow and the tobacco industry will shrink. One day there could be no more demand for cigarettes and we will have put the tobacco industry out of business. No one will ever want to smoke again.

I say we need to make e-cigs even more convenient for every smoker. If you allow teen vaping to stay "illegal", then you won't be giving the teens anything to say No, to the tobacco companies with.

Teen vaping is Not illegal in most places, only illegal to sell to minors. For those places that allow teens to vape, we should encourage teen smokers to vape to save their lives.

I wish it was more convenient for smokers, too many get put off by the change in ritual, futzing with new devices. Unfortunately there's too much politics and Mega-corp involvement with BT for them to ever just go out of business. They are concentrating on developing countries, and places with less restrictive laws than the US.

Unfortunately, before BT closed their doors, the FDA would have it's hooks firmly into vaping, and tax it (and us) into oblivion.

I think if that becomes a problem, enterprising DIYers will find ways around those taxes. We can make whole PV's including atomizers from scratch. Flavoring will always be legal. PG and VG will always be legal. These 3 items are used in too many things.

If Liquid DIY Nicotine becomes illegal (which no one is talking about doing as far as I know) there will always be other ways to get it. Prohibition on alcohol didn't work, so they won't outlaw nicotine either. Today we get liquid nicotine from labs and not tobacco companies. BT can go right under and it would not have to effect the vaping world - other than creating more vapers.

It's not the nicotine that kills - it's the smoke. They would have to outlaw coffee, Coke, artificial sweeteners- all commonly used forms of legal drugs

Wow, great stuff going on here. To answer the question, yes at first vaping was TOO convenient for me. Using tankos or tanks made vaping so convenient for me that I got bored and went back to analogs because of it. When I started dripping I actually welcomed the extra fiddling, and kinda compared it to taking a cig out of the pack and lighting it. Plus I liked the vapor production, TH and flavor the 306's made with my little "3.7v" inferno.

I've been exclusively dripping for over two years now, and that's exactly how I feel about it.
I have a hard time understanding why more people don't feel that way.

Convenience doesn't necessarily mean it's "easier" (pulling out a cig and just lighting it...ecigs are a little more fiddly) or "cheaper" than smoking. But it sure is awesome to be able to vape in a bar, a quick restroom break, heck even in my office, almost all day. I don't want to do it front of clients, but I vape constantly when no one is in my studio. Also, in my house, my car, etc. So if you mean it's too convenient in the fact that you can do it pretty much anywhere (even if a little stealth is involved), and not feel guilty about being unhealthy, then YES....it's conveniently AWESOME.

I didn't think it was possible, but I vape more than I used to smoke. But .... it, its so much better. A nice combo of strong coffee and vaping gets me pumped up for the day. The convenience is what I like about vaping, I can vape pretty much everywhere. Stealth vaping in shopping centres is the best bit.
