vaping vs smoking

[Dreaswi]

I smoked 2 packs a day and I think I vape more than I smoked. If my PV is not in my hand at all times I go into a full blown panic attack.

It only takes one person to start a revolution.

Definitely less. I vape more now than I did when I was just quitting and it's still nowhere near lighting up a cig every half hour like I used to. I think the most liquid I've gone through in a day is about 3ml and that was actually last Monday! I had to vape non stop for hours to achieve that. At the most I might vape 1ml a day but it's usually far less than that and some days not at all.

Me too.. vaping more than smoking, but that's mostly because I can do it at work and while driving (I stopped smoking in the car a couple of year ago.) I used to chain smoke at night in front of the computer, so now it's chain vaping, but with more space between puffs. I do vape somewhat less than when I started 3 weeks ago and I'm expecting to let go of my scuba-gear like vaping habit and take just one draw and leave it for minutes once I get an RBA.

Probably about the same. Although I do vape more regularly during the day compared to how often I smoked, I vape differently - I don't vape for 6-7 minute stretches every hour, sometimes I take a vape or two and put my APV down for a while.

Also, when I get up in the middle of the night, I may take a vape or two before crawling back into bed, where before sometimes I'd go sit out in the living room and have a cigarette before bed.

So, as to a definitive answer - I'm not 100% sure, but I think it all evens out in the end.

tdub,

to ecf. So glad you are here. It is a wonderful place just jam packed with wonderful people. I use to go outside to smoke so I know without a doubt I vape a lot more. That is just one of the bazillion reasons I love vaping. Good luck to you and again welcome. Have fun and happy vaping.

Initially I vaped a lot more than I smoked. My wife was complaining about it. She didn't complain that much when I smoked LOL. Now I find I've cut back on vaping frequency but probably still do more than I did when I smoked. I've also dropped down in 2 months from 18mg to 6mg nic so that has something to do with the frequency as well.

I should maybe drop down in nic eventually. Nice avatar by the way!!! Love me some Billy.

Why do you ask, please?

And I agree with this posting here - same here. Much less "need to vape" compared to the former "need" to smoke:

Just curious. I vape a lot more than I use to smoke. Just wondering if other people did too. It's pretty much permanently attached to my hand. Love it.

I definitely Vape way, way more than I smoked. I'm a chain Vaper. I dropped my nic down to 6mg so I could chain Vape.

Didn't really smoke much in the first place. The only time I ever smoked was when I was stressed, and even then it was maybe 1 cigarette a week, sometimes 2 or 3 a month. I don't vape much either, again usually when I am stressed. I've replaced both vaping and smoking with boxing, rock climbing, canoeing, hiking, etc.

Da more I vape, da better I feel. Much unlike when I was smokin'!!!

I definitely vape more than I smoked. Now that I can get my nicotine fix inside and don't have to go outside I chain vape all day and sometimes get up in the middle of the night!
