More consistant than analog for you?

5 days into vaping and it occurred to me that throat hits and chest hits (if that's what you wanna call it) are very consistent. Once I found a juice that I enjoy and got the technique down, I found that each drag feels just as consistent as the one before or one from yesterday.
Sometimes with analogs the inhale was ok, sometimes you didn't feel much and sometimes (the rare ones) they felt great. At first I thought maybe it was just new sensations with vaping, but 5 days in and every inhale feels awesome.

You find the same??

P.S. My wife gave a try and took a drag of 18mg 555 after she smoked one of her Camel lights. Even after an entire analog, she took a drag and almost stepped back when she inhaled. All she said was Holy $@#%

Well that first drag of an analog, when you first light it, was always amazing for me. I think you're right though.

It might have something to do with the way we have to vape. With an analog you're taking puff after puff. With vaping you sort of have to take long slow drags, so you're getting a bigger, stronger hit so to speak.

Analogs are also burning up, so it's getting smaller and smaller as you hit it, and after the first puff or two it isn't all together compact as it was when you first lit it.

Cigs are so nasty now, that's all i know. I still enjoy that first puff of smoke from a real cig sometimes when i give it a try, but the taste of it is disgusting, so I don't know.


I've let some people try my joye510 and they always say it's such a huge throat hit (I use 18-24mg usually with vg). They say it's stronger than having a cig, and they get pretty impressed by it.

What I discovered was that the act of smoking seems to be much more important to me than what I use.
I think cigs have less TH because they have added chemicals to MAKE it smoother - the idea is NOT to cough (or feel iritation). I prefer vaping beacuse I prefer vapor to smoke (of course it tastes better too) and I prefer to breathe rather than wheeze lol.

I agree about the TH and the habit/like for the act of smoking. For three weeks before I quit smoking cigarettes, I was weaning myself off by vaping more and more. By time I smoked my last one (this past Saturday morning), I really honestly couldn't tell a difference between analog and e-cig other than vaping provided great flavor compared to smelling like an ashtray. With a manual battery, TH seems even better.

When I quit cold turkey a few years back, I was a mess and I'm not so sure that the actual act itself wasn't what I missed as much as the nicotine.
