Hi folks...
I'm sure this has been discussed more than once (especially on a site as enormous as this), but I'm curious how people define what "light vaping", "moderate", or "heavy vaping" is.
I often hear this when referring to battery life. People will say things like: "That battery should last you a good 4 or 5 hours of heavy vaping".
As I mentioned in my "introduction post" a few days ago, I'm coming up on my third week without a single analog (which still absolutely amazes me, considering I've failed miserably numerous times at every other method I've tried using to quit analogs).
Anyway, the first week I was using my PV, I drove myself completely nuts (thus the user name), trying to keep track of my vaping. I was a complete lunatic. (Well, ok, I still am).
Initially, I was writing down the number of "puffs" I was taking on a piece of paper, and then comparing it to the typical 10 to 12 puffs I would get on an analog, in order to figure out how many "cigarettes" I was smoking a day, to somehow compare the two. And/Or, writing down the number of drops I was putting in my carts, cartos, etc, and adding them up at the end of the day.
I quickly realized how crazy this was...(not to mention I was running out of paper)
, so I finally said the hell with it and just vaped when I felt like it and tried not to worry about it.
I don't even know how much juice I go through, as I have so many different flavors and I've been switching a lot to find something I like. I simply notice eventually that some bottles are running down faster than others.
I would have to consider myself a "heavy vapor" at this point because I simply can't put the thing down for any length of time. However, as I also mentioned in my very first post here, my vaping "habit" is quite different than what my analog habit was.
I don't have 10 or 12 "puffs", and then put it down, but rather have 3 or 4, put it down, and then pick it up only a few minutes later and repeat the process over and over pretty much all day long.
Do you guys somehow keep specific track of how much Juice you use a day? (This seems difficult to me, especially if you switch juices often). Or, how often you're hitting on the PV? Or both?
That is, maybe a "light vapor" would only use it every couple of hours or so. Then again, light vaping might also be defined as using it often, but with very few puffs.
Then there is also the Nicotine strength to be considered in order to put yourself in a certain category.
See what I'm getting at here? And can you also see why they call me "thenut"?
Sorry for the long winded post, when I basically said very little that made sense.
I guess what I'm getting at here, is what category would you put yourself in, and how exactly do you determine that you belong in that category?
Man, why do I have to over analyze everything I do in life?
Aren't you glad you're not me? Hehe.
