I never could vape that high. I settled on 24mg when I finally quit, but I was only at around a pack and a half a day. Found some shall we say, well aged, 6mg a while back. Gave me a head rush :eek:. Guess I’m a lightweight these days
I used to be a 3pk/day smoker. I cut back by half when I changed to a job where I couldn't smoke. I had 18mg left to me, and I thought I would get 24mg. As my vaping volume went up, that stuff was hitting me like a train. I am still trying to figure out the right number. I like to kinda puff on the thing constantly, so Im making up some low strength (maybe 3-5) for sitting around reading on the computer,etc. and some higher strength 'wallop' for when I am stressed and need the nic.

  1. I have put my Provaris up for awhile. All the talk lately about mesh has me thinking I should get my Zenesis and ZAP back out again, but I never had any luck building them. I have even thought about selling them, but the Zen is my only mech so no.

You need a shiny fix. I'm very proud of you, you've come a long way baby. Just having a hard time getting on board with the no flavor thing. So boring.
I’m not settled on no flavor, I just want to figure out if it would be sustainable if the FDA crashes my party. Although I seriously doubt flavors will be an issue. Bakers and candy makers etc would be cut off too. Unlikely

That’s my problem, I still vape like I used stinkies... chain vaping. 3 seems to be a good level for that for me

That's exactly right. I always smoked too much, not because I needed the nicotine, but because I absentmindedly lit one after another. When we could smoke in the offices, I lit one everytime I made a call, which was every few minutes. All day.
I think it is as much about the habit, and routine, as the darn nicotine!

My car is my office, I often catch myself reaching for my pack after a hard call or I close a sale.

I can't say that with any confidence, maybe in a few years. Really not seeing a reason to consider unflavored.
I made & vaped 100ml of unflavored in Jan or Feb.
It's nothing to write home about but it's a decent flavor.
Same TH as my flavored just not exciting.
I'd call unflavored a different flavor, good for a change of pace.

I have been doing some unflavored, while I wait for more flavors to arrive, in order to stretch the last of my tobacco flavored stash. It really does nothing for me, either. Doesn't hit any of the right triggers. You have to be able to derive some satisfaction from vaping, or else it won't keep you motivated. Si?

I deliver the mail, I drive 100 miles every day, good weather, bad weather. Winter is about over so should be less stressful.

I mixed up some 18mg and seem to be doing okay. I am stuck on the couch for a few weeks and am pretty much vaping up a storm. When I go back to work going to have take some 36mg just in case.
MTL is quite a bit different than sub ohm. I was spinning in my office chair at my build station when I hit the first batch I made at 18mg/ml with a 0.2 alien build on my Goon! :lol::lol::lol:

When I get really invested in a movie I do the same thing. Freaks me out and reminds how easy it would be fall back into smoking. I don't desire cigs anymore but I don't have any blinders on. Hard habit to break, heartbreakingly easy to fall back into.

Be thankful you’re not here... mine is a walking route. What quadrant of Montana are you in?
