New Penn State ecig online survey

[Nighthawk76]

Completed. 19 days smoke free and so thankful for these. Already running again after 20 years of smoking and countless attempts with other products. Only problem is, I realy see no reason not to vape for the next 20 years ( if the cigs havent already killed me)

I'm with you Nighthawk76. Why can't I enjoy the habit and sensation of vaping for the rest of my life if it won't do me any harm. If it truly is a safe alternative I am so thankful. Just like you I love having lung capacity, taste, smell, etc back and still able to enjoy my habit. Let's hope the gov't doesn't try to screw this blessing up, either.

Filled it out. Thanks for having things for us to participate in!

I didn't take it because one of the first questions is, "Have you been vaping for 30 days." I just started today. Should I take it now or wait 30 days?

Wait 30 days

Took the survey but it was a bit tough to decide how to answer a few of the questions. I just did the best I could.

Did the survey this morning. How fun it would be to get selected to actually go to the campus for the study. State Collega Pa was the town I grew up in, and where I started smoking at age 16.

Survey completed. Some questions didn't really have an accurate answer. I did what I could. How many time have I quit smoking? About 18,250, as I do need to go to sleep once a day...

Just finished submitting the survey. It was interesting to take a more critical look at my nicotine usage over the years and contrasting that to how I feel now without analogs. Hopefully the results will get more people to at least consider the switch.

Done and done

Did it last night

 

[telijah]

Been using Blu Cigs since the week of Thanksgiving, and then switched to a eGo a couple weeks ago, so completed the survey as a newbie just now I barely made the 30 day mark!

 

[jfjardine02]

Why did you switch from Blu to eGo, and do you notice any differences in the vapor quality and subjective effects?

 

[OBE1]

I just completed the survey. I agree with the rest of the group... some questions were hard to answer but overall good survey!

 

[frosting]

More! More! More! No really. I wish more universities, hospitals, were doing this research.

 

[Nate854]

Filled out and submitted. I enjoyed the survey because you can tell by the questions that these guys want the truth and aren't biased.

I took the survey and yes I find it doesn't really make a distinction between the two and they are very different from each other. Then again that's been our problem all along. By continuing to refer to pvs as e cigarettes we give the FDA and other groups the ammunition to refer to them as tobacco products. We need to change that and fast. We need to campaign to stop using the term e cigarette when most vaporizers look nothing like cigarettes. We need to ask our vendors to stop also. I know some people will say why or we shouldn't have to ,but the fact is the average person will see or hear the term e cigarette and immediately associate it with tobacco and label it evil, bad for you with ever reading or researching anything more about it. I believe it's up to us as a community to.educate the general public whenever we can about our personal vaporizers and vapping in general. I am in the process of obtaining funding to open a vapping lounge in my city which currently doesn't gave any brick and mortar stores in it. My main goal being to creating a place that we can come to share our vapping experiences and to educate people who are interested in vapping ect... I agree that we need more studies by credible institutions to help get the good word out there.

I took the survey, volunteered for the clinical study. Also, made a point of stating in the comments area how I feel the name "electronic cigarettes" is misleading and has a negative connotation to many people, and that "personal vaporizer" is much more accurate.

Sorry about that...not sure why that happened and I will look into it. Over 1000 vapers have completed it okay so I believe it was an isolated glitch.
