I've been smoking my pipes with Dunhill English tobaccos; Early Morning Pipe with coffee before breakfast, My Mixture 965 in the morning, London in the afternoon, and Nightcap in the evening after dinner. 24 mg juice satisfies my cravings without chain vaping and it isn't excessive even when I do. A full pipe bowl lasts about an hour, and I feel obligated to keep it going and finish it. vaping, of course, is on-demand, so I hit it a lot less often.
What cigs did you smoke/ what mg juice do you vape instead?

I smoked about 1.5 PAD of Marlboro Lights for almost 25 years (8 days analog free now!). I started with 18mg and it wasn't cutting it. I got a sampler pack of juices at 30mg and it was a bit too much. I'm settling in at 24mg.
I used to smoke 2.5 to 3 packs per day of Cheyenne Little Cigars (the filtered ones that are more like analogs than actual cigars). I started out on Tobacco flavored e-liquid with as much nicotine as I could buy in a pre mix.
Now, meh 24 Mg, 3%, 18 MG, 2% nicotine, whatever depending on if I want to just hit now and then on a busy day, or chill and pretty much chain vape, or something in between and, oh do I want my clove bend, almond mix, spice mix, or do I actually want a bit of tobacco flavor in there too? Hmm maybe some peanut butter, popcorn, cola, coffee....
Starting out if you smoked, then it is easier to go with stuff that at least reminds you of what you used to smoke, but in tike, the PV (e-cig) even looking or feeling like an analog or, tasting like tobacco at all doesn't matter - it supplies the bit of nicotine to clam the nerves, you want the model that feels and tastes best, with the vapor volume you like, and, you can have fun inhaling your sweets and junk food - and not getting fat enjoying them with that hint of nicotine you need.

I started smoking Marlboro reds back in 1975, and switched to Winston sometime around 2005. The last three years I smoked I switched to Winston 100's full flavor. Last year I started using the Blu ecigs at high nicotine which i believe is 18mg. About 6 weeks ago I ditched Blu and went with an eGo-C Twist/eVic and a Kanger T-3. Still use 18mg juice and don't plan on reducing that any time soon.

I used to smoke American Sprits yellow (light) at two packs a week. I had an experienced vape friend recommend I start at 18mg for nicotine but that quickly interfered with my vaping making me sick from too much. Dropped to 11mg after a few days, then 4mg and just ordered nicotine free to blend with all these higher oils so I can use them up. Basically I adore vaping, love all the yummy flavors (I tried only one tobacco oil and went straight to non tobacco flavors) and the habit of going outside for a vape has completely hooked me. I will never smoke again and since I was smoking so little a week the transition off the nicotine is pretty easy. Overall it's the habit of smoking that kept me hooked and now I have successfully transferred this to my vaping.
Just look at reviews from folks here for oils that are closer to tobacco if you want or fun new flavors are always available. I love the oils that are spicy like extra spicy red-hot cinnamon or clove though virgin vapors makes a sweet Darjeeling tea that is divine! I tend to blend them a lot making new versions of everything which is handy as I have a bunch of nicotine oil to use up!
Can't wait to use up the nicotine, blending means trying the blend out and adding more of this and that then trying again and after a while I am way over my nicotine threshold!

I started out with Marlboro red's the last 15 years or so be with Marlboro light's about 1 1/2 packs a day up until 6 mouths ago. Now I just enjoy the vape. 18mg
As a teenager I smoked Marlboro lights. Early on I switched to camel lights then to camel menthol silver's. I was a 1pad a day smoker, sometimes more if I was hanging out with friends or has a stressful day. I started vaping at 24mg, but found it way too strong quickly moved down to 18 mg, 12 mg, and have been vaping 6 mg for the last couple of months. I occasionally will use higher nic when I know I can't vape for a while.
I smoked less than a PAD of Merit Bronze. I started with 6mg Desert Ship and am doing just fine. However, I got some Turkish Blend in a sample pack from eliquidmarket.com and like it pretty well too. I just ordered some cherry, chocolate, and RY-4 from them yesterday. I think I'm gonna mix a little cherry or chocolate with my tobacco flavor and see what happens.
Marlboro red, pack a day (PAD). I started with 24mg, went to 18mg, back up to 20 or 24 mg. I only use 2 flavors now, just to keep the flavor from fading. It seems that if I only vape one flavor the taste just fades away and I have to suck on that tube longer and harder (insert rude comment here) just to get any taste. Since switching to two flavors and by going back and forth, I can taste both all day.
I used to smoke Camel Light 99s. My initial liquid order was all in 18s (a Turkish, mint choc, coffee, vanilla), save for a 24 mg clove; my cravings were satisfied, but I couldn't sleep during the first week of vaping. I ordered peppermint in 11 mg for night time and it's serving me pretty well.
2 packs a day of Pall Mall Reds. Started with the 24mg and it is working great. Don't have that I need a cig feeling.
I started on menthols but quickly changed to non-menthol marlboro reds for about 10 years then they just got too harsh for me so i switched to marlboro light 100s for the last 17 years 1 to 1.5 PAD. Been vaping for about 4 months using 18 nic and its been about right so far. Now i'm starting to get into RBAs and definately need to drop the nic to 12 for next order. Those RBAs really pump out the nic.

Used to smoke a pack a day camel blues/lights. Started at 18 mg four weeks ago, still at 18 mg. just so happy to be cigg free, I am not up to push myself down just yet! Great thread!!!
I smoked Camel menthol. Smoked for 30 years. I now use 8-16mg of nicotine. I don't notice any difference. I do not doubt that I was/still am addicted to nicotine but I think I was addicted to the habit/action of smoking more than anything.
I smoked Nat Shermans and Dunhills. Started vaping at 12mg, now down to ZERO NIC!
