Why you shouldn't CHAIN vape

[Storemyace]

As we all know if you're using nicotine e-liquids it's possible to OD on e-liquid (None life threatening in most cases but still bad side effects)
I'm not a doctor, but I encourage you to not chain vape.

- feeling of burning/warmth/heat to my skin
- stomach discomfort, upset, or pain
- mouth and throat irritation
- nausea without vomiting
- Abdominal pain
- Fast or irregular heartbeat
- coughing
- Red dry irritating eyes
- shortness of breath + tightness in the chest + wheezing

I'm not advocating chain vaping, but I think a lot of those symptoms are also due to the dehydration that vaping causes. You need to drink plenty of fluids if you are vaping a lot.

If you find yourself chain-vaping and becoming ill, Whole Tobacco Alkaloid might help. , I actually get the sense I'm disinterested in smoking or vaping for a while vaping WTA, whereas with regular e-liquid I could vape myself crazy and jack up my pulse.

I go through almost all of those even when I don't vape, with the exception of bradycardia where my heart rate is extremely slow to the point where I almost need a pacemaker...

I was just showing the side effects that are backed up with scientific research. I'm not saying e-cigs are bad at all, but chain vaping in my opinion is not a good choice.

 

[Recycled Roadkill]

Wow, I'm sure glad that I was chain vaping well prior to reading all of that.

There's no telling what number of those symptoms I might have acquired.

You have good research here. There have been occasions where I felt sick from taking huge long hits one after another, I get like that when I take my sleep meds and I chain vape at that point triggering some of the data you presented.

I guess it depends on how much nicotine is in the vape that you're chaining, and what your tolerance for nicotine is.

I'd certainly agree: if you have an adverse reaction to vaping you should cut down (just like with drinking, or eating, or exercising, or pretty much anything else). I sometimes find myself chain vaping... not often, but sometimes. Never had a bad reaction.

It does sound like the O.P. should cut way down, though.

It's my second day so far, chained vaped 9ml of 18mg nic yesterday. From posts I read it's quite normal to vape this amount if you're not smoking any analogues along with vaping. It should take me about a week to cut down.

18 mg is a common level of nicotine in the eliquid for many vapers starting out, first quitting. The 9 mL vaped in one day is about DOUBLE the normal amount of eliquid vaped in one day on average. Most use 3 to 4 mL per day.

If you were going to continue using 9 mL a day, cutting the nicotine level in half may be your best bet. 9 mL is chain vaping to it's extreme, I vape a lot but may only hit 5 mL maximum in a day, even chain vaping. And I've been vaping over 3 1/2 years.

holy hell! if i vaped 9ml of 18mg ide absolutely be feeling ill! i chain vape 0 or 6mg all day long and get no side effects from it, if you want to chain cape go to a very low mg!
also my ml usage is about 3-5ml a day

 

[JaxMike]

Seems you would've started your post with details about yourself and your experience, rather than a laundry list from webmd, or whatever. I sense an agenda here.

If you're on the level, you should work hard to cut your intake (9ml of 18 mg on day 2 is ridiculous). But I suspect that's not the case.

I smoked 1 pad for 37 years. I started vaping 18 mg juice. I vaped about 4 ml a day back then which is right in line with the average that people vape. I purposely chain vaped when I was having cigarette pangs to help me not smoke. It worked, but I did a few times slightly OD on nic. It didn't take long and I reduced my nic level to 15 mg by mixing 18 mg with 12 mg. That solved it for me and I have now not had a cigarette for 2 years. I also now rarely vape nicotine.

No one has ever died from nicotine OD due to smoking or vaping. IMO the issue is not that you shouldn't chain vape if needed to stay of cigs, but that you should be vaping a nic level that allows you to chain vape when needed. I think the best deal is to have a couple of different nic level juices on hand and switch to less nic for those chain vape situations.

Hope it works out for you

You better slow down Storemyace!! Relax, sit back and enjoy it. What's the point in chain vaping anyway?? I don't get it.

 

[icemanistheking]

Sometimes if I chainvape all day, it's really hard to go to sleep at night. It prolly doesn't help that if I wake up in the middle of the night, the first thing I do is reach over and grab my vape and hit it a couple times before trying to go back to sleep. Me likes it

 

[erazzz]

I chain vape 0-4 mg. I don't go any higher or else I will feel the effects of it. I get the low nic since I vape all day =)

 

[spewny]

I got these symptoms with my first purchase of 24mg right after quitting. Next bottle was 12mg that I mixed 50/50 or 70/30 to keep stepping down till I could vape what I wanted without getting any adverse effects. After that, moved onto better tanks with more airflow and better vapor and dropped immediately to 6mg to keep from getting any shakes or elevated heartbeat that I could feel in my head. It is a process, and unfortunately almost everything is trial and error since it varies by the individual. Definitely head the advice of the comments above to reduce your reactions, and consider a MUCH lower nic or quantity. Good luck, and welcome to the site

I chain vape 6mg. I had heart surgery back in 97(sinus node ablation) and am very intuned to my heart rate.

If I don't drink enough water while vaping, I get pvc's. It kind of feels like your heart is skipping. This is where I have to put down the device and drink more water.

I had the same issues in the past with chain smoking, drinking too much alcohol and soda.

Moderation is the key as is keeping yourself hydrated!

 

[Lessifer]

Yeah.... 9ml a day is a lot, especially with 18mg. I started with 24mg, but only vaped 3-4ml a day. After a year I'm vaping 12-18mg but usually only 2-3ml a day, if that.

If you're doing anything, be it vaping, exercising, drinking alcohol, even drinking water, if you start to feel ill stop what you're doing for awhile.
