Vaping frequency

[tramca]

I will hopefully get my first kit tomorrow.

Now my question. How frequently should I vape.
I currently smoke around 20 superking cigs a day at 0.9 nic each.
Sometimes I have one every 30 mins, sometimes hourly, sometimes longers between cigs. Basically if I feel like one I have one.

I've never counted how many puffs per cig, but I suppose it takes a couple of minutes to finish one.
So when I vape do I vape as often as I would smoke? And how many draws?

I know everyones habits and needs differ, but would like to hear how often you guys vape and the time you spend on each session. Just curious.

Tramca, to begin with just vape as much as you need to

You will most likely find that you need to vape more often & longer than you smoked as you absorb nicotine in a different way to smoking real cigs.

You will probably take many more vaping puffs than smoking puffs in a day. I do, and I vape 36 mg strong liquid.

The calculation of how many vaping puffs= one cigarette has been on this forum for years, and I'm sure many will chime in. But I've never seen an explanation that I really believe, because I think you'd have to measure nicotine level in the blood to do that accurately.
AND quantify how long each puff is AND how much vapor YOUR unit is putting out, as well as the nicotine mg/ml and so on.

All I could add is that I only vape about 1 ml per day and I'm using the 36 mg strong juice. (Used to smoke about 1.5 packs a day.)Most say they vape many ml. per day but are using weaker juice. So maybe the amount of nicotine comes out about the same.

You'll probably have that thing stuck to your mouth the first few weeks. Once your body adjusts to the lack of other chemicals found in cigs, and the slower nic absorption rate, you'll probably find yourself using it less. At least that's how it was for me. I vape 24mg all day and go through about 3-4ml a day now, for the first month it was about 5ml a day.

 

[klynnn]

I vape about 3ml a day at 12-14mg.

 

[Chrissie]

I reckon about 3ml a day is average. I used to be a very heavy smoker, so get through a tad more

 

[lenze]

It's my first month and I'm vaping around 4-6ml per day. Stick is usually in my mouth nevertheless.

I've never thought of my vaping in terms of "sessions". I never think "Well it's time for my hourly vaping session now". I have an ecig on a lanyard around my neck at all times. Whether out of habit or out of some perceived need I take a toke every so often without even thinking about it.

As much as u wanna. I vape when the mood strikes me. As far as how much juice i use, 30 ml lasts less than a week. But ive got a bunch of flavors so im nvr out!!

 

[Rule62]

For me, it's hard to say, because I have several devices, and change flavors throughout the day, as the mood strikes me. I guess I vape between 3 and 4 ml per day.

 

[tramca]

I imagine the 10ml bottle i ordered will be done in a couple of days then hahaha. I paid £9.95 for 10ml, and I have since found some elsewhere for £3.95 for 10ml, same nic strength and £1.95 P&P. So I guess I'll order some just so I have enough while I get started

 

[Chrissie]

£9.95 for 10ml is very expensive indeed Tramca I buy 50ml bottles for only a tad more than that from UK sellers & 100ml for about the same price direct from China.

 

[El Desconocido]

I was a pack and half a day smoker. I usually got 10 puffs out of an analog, and it took me 3 min. to smoke one.
I currently drip using ego mega batteries and 1.5Ohm atties. With Halo 24mg I drop 2 drops on the atty for three puffs. I've found that 6 puffs takes away the craving the same way one analog would. however, I often find myself vaping for hours at a time because I can vape indoors

 

[tramca]

The 30ml bottles from this vendor where £19.99 I think. So better value than my small bottle but from what i see still expensive. Think i need to shop around!
Just need to convince bf that this is a good investment and will save cash in the longrun, before I persuade him to part with more cash

 

[Chrissie]

Tramca, over the 4 years + that I've been vaping, I've saved a fortune. But above all, I can breath freely again - & that's worth a million dollars (or should I say ponds as I'm in the UK? )

But yes, you do indeed need to shop around
