I only commute 2.5 miles to work. Yet getting in my car is absolute trigger for me

Oh absolutely. Years ago I was driving a friend home from work, waiting in the turn lane at a traffic light. The light turned as I began to light up. I lit the cig and put the car into gear simultaneously, pulled through the turn. It was a stick shift. I didn't even think about it until I looked over at him and he asked, "Do you even realize what you just did?" I don't think I ever didn't smoke while driving.

I have a carry around AIO that I use for driving. Fits my hand like a cigar. I've even taken to twirling it and palming the knob to shift gears.

Toledo,Oh
Have you seen that Innokin DRV? It plugs into your car cig lighter. Has a rotary dial to control Voltage and a cable that you screw a tank onto the end of. It seemed a little fussy and overpriced but it was an interesting idea.

Not a bad idea, most cig lighters can put out 12 amps. Doesn't sound like a lot but 12v (actually closer to 14) at 12 amps is A LOT of power. Heck if you ran a .4 ohm build at 12 v you would get 360 watts and the battery would last all day! Car batteries can put out close to 10,000 watts for a few seconds.

Vapor Beast has it listed for $25.97 but they are out of stock right now:

I do have a smok aio but hate the lack of control . Trying to adjust because I like the shape.

Yup. I tried the three different atomizers for that EVOD to see if I could get it to work for me. The 1.0 Ohm ones give a satisfying enough vape through the life of the 18650.

Dunno why this seems so hard. Our parents were smokers quit without all this... What helps me is to look at little kids or people in my life who don't smoke and realize how a redulous habit it is. Guess I smoked to much or too long. Or maybe weekness dunno but kicking my ..... And I consider myself a super strong woman.

Just keep trying at it. Don't beat yourself up when you backslide. You aren't beaten until you stop trying.
