My analogs had a life span of approximately 7 minutes. (Yes, I used to time it) I think my puff rate now ranges from 30-90 seconds, all day long, depending on what I'm doing. If I'm working on a project around the house (read Honey Do list), I may go as long as 5 or 10 minutes between puffs. But, just sitting here at the computer, it's more like every 60 seconds. I was pretty much a chain smoker at home with the analogs. Now I'm always at home.

Depending on stress etc. between 2-6 puff every 10-90 min but I find I vape more at night and at gatherings where I can vape. I vape driving IN THE HOUSE now, doing chores, after meals. Do some when i get up but the times between break and lunch I don't vape as much. I chain vape after some sort of snafu. I don't vape much at the movies or watching some shows on TV. I vape a lot watching the news in between talking back to the tv. LOL
 
It does depend. When I'm outside, I may take 10 puffs every 20 minutes or so when I pause to recoup and re-evaluate what I'm doing.

Inside, it may be one every three minutes unless I've just driven myself into a slight nicotine withdrawal. Then I'll hit it ten or fifteen times in a row and that goes away, and I go back to the every three minutes thing.

Overall, my 1,300 mAh battery averages 15 hours of life on weekends, easily all day the rest of the time.

Not back to vaping just yet (waiting on some kit and other things), but when I was, it was probably about 2-6 puffs every 30 mins or so, which is roughly equivilant to the amount id puff on cigerettes.

Guessing of course, but it certainly wasnt alot, in fact, carrying the thing around, versus having to light it etc, it tended to be like puff puff, stuff back in pocket.

I found with a high nic and some wtas, id be satified after fewer puffs versus analogues in a single session. But then Id have more sessions, due to not rolling, lighting, and being able to reach straight into the pocket. So id guess its about the same.

I made my own cigarettes with the machine and the filtered tubes. A home-made cigarette for me, lasted around 1 minute, maybe two lol. They burned up fast and it was all in my lungs. Probably 6 drags in 1 of them ahaha. And I'd routinely smoke two of these in a row! Gross. Now, Idk. My vaping is so inconsistant lately and I've been using smoktech cartos and they just aren't as good as I had thought. The first day they are fine but the 3rd or 4th day they begin to go bad and I'm vaping less because of this. They are all I have. Ugh. I'm starting to get frustrated because I honestly don't even know the brand of the ones I used to use that I liked :/ (they lasted me at least 2-3 weeks) So, lets see... I always have a PV or two by my side. Always. And I probably pick it up every 10 minutes. Maybe even every 5 if I'm in the mood to be vaping regularly. I take 4-5 puffs if the cartomizer seems to be screwing up. (which is a lot lately) and I usually vape until the cartomizer starts to get warm if its not acting up (10-15 puffs? around there) So thats my pace at the moment. With a GOOD tank and GOOD cartos, and GOOD juice? lol. oh man, I could vape a quarter of a tank in 2-3, maybe 4 hours. yummmm.
