The need to wee a lot when you increase your water intake settles down when your body gets used to it. And water is good for a whole lot of reasons-good for your brain, your skin, your toxin levels! 2 litres isn't much at all when drank throughout the day.
Why does vaping dehydrate me so bad?

Ridiculous? Not so much....criticism of my point may be lacking in judgement on details. I'm not particularly "average" in my intake requirements. I'm 5'2", 145 pounds, actively working in a rather physically strenuous occupation, but not terribly aerobic. There is no average, without stressing what "average" is.
If you eat a healthy diet, about 20 percent of your water may come from the foods you eat. If you eat a healthy diet you can drink 69.2 ounces of water today, or 2.1 liters.
Everyone has a different exercise, physical stature, work, temperature, diet, medications, humidity, etc to live in. Here's an interesting little test: See if your intake should be different from mine: It just may!
There's a few notations along the questioning you should also read,
sometimes water is not a good idea to overdo. And water intake should be broken down into an all-day ingestion. Along with everything else you eat or drink, how much liquid is comprised of sugary or caffeinated, or alcoholic ingredients? A nice cold beer sounds good to me right about now.

Kate51 is right. Water can be dangerous to overdo. I have heard about people dying from drinking too much water, very rare, but it has happened (usually drug related). And if your water contains other things, it may dry you out even more. Speaking of.... A beer does sound really good lol.
Now what I'm curious about is ....is your blood pressure still high?
Vaping is now helping me to get in my daily intake of fluids. I had weight reduction surgery and need at least 64 oz of water per day. Sad to say it wasn't happening until now
I'm guzzlin away which means more weight loss whoo hoo.

i just started vaping yesterday. and i agree! i pee so much my toilet is yelling at me..i find if my mouth gets too dry. a little bit of mouth wash helps saliva production.
the dry throat effect from vaping being a humecatant for me occurs worst when im sleeping, often a few hours after going to bed. kind of a few hours into sleep, I sometimes wake up noticing my throat is dry as a bone, water would likely help a lot, and I generally do drink enough of it, just not wanting to drink too much before bed.
Thursday, I got my e-cig in the mail. Friday, I vaped all day. My friend and I went out to a bar and split six shots and three pitchers of PBR. Maybe that's not a lot, but I weigh 152lbs. I vaped from home, to the bus, on the bus, in the saloon, and when I got home, I went and had a cigarette. I puked after one drag. The point to this story is, even after all I drank, NO liquid came up. So yup....vaping seems to be very dehydrating, even though the solutions I use are promoted as PG (free).

I drink A LOT of water. The factory I work in was really dry this winter and I was nothing BUT thirsty. We have Mountain High water in coolers all over the plant. It is ice cold coming out of the dispenser which I am incredibly partial to (I like all my drinks to be on the verge of frozen)... I drink so much and it tastes so good that I started calling it crack water...
Since I started vaping, I've noticed the cottonmouth too... which is fine because I've gotten used to drinking constantly. But, the side effect of drinking that much water is definitely always having to pee...

This was interesting for me. 3.1 liters is what it suggests... which is actually about 2 liters short of what I think I am drinking throughout the day..lol... which would also explain why my body needs to get rid of all that excess water..
I also have always had a disposition to drinking a lot... and my 8 year old seems to share the same thing... for me, I love the way ice cold liquids feel in my mouth and for some reason, I love the action of drinking...
Here's my view... I have to drink a lot when I vape. I've noticed something... load up an e-cig and press the power button without even getting it close to your mouth. The amount of vapor the pours out is exactly zero.
Obviously, to produce vapor, water has to figure in. That water is coming from you.

Biotene mouth wash for "dry mouth" works wonders.. I use it once or twice a day and I don't have dry mouth anymore.
genius! Your so right... Wonderful observation. Totally solves that question of thirst. Was looking for the answer after viewing so many posts and this makes absolute sense.
