How deep is the tip of the device into your mouth - is it between lips and teeth or into the mouth further than the teeth?
How close are the upper & and lower set of teeth to each other - are they close to each or do you open your teeth wide?

A little unrelated to the above - other vaping technique threads say 'smoke it like a cigar' - since I haven't smoked a cigar - how would that be. Another post also talks about 'steam pipe' - what's a steam pipe - googling shows me some steam pipes - but I can't figure out how exactly they are used? I am starting to get the feeling that I may have led a sheltered life as far as analog smoking goes.

I vape much like I smoked a cigarette. Pulling the vapor into my mouth first with the tip between my lips and teeth, then lung inhaling.

It's my opinion that the "smoke like a cigar" comment is more for a mouth inhale vs. lung inhale discussion like this one. I don't know what a steam pipe is either. So don't feel too left out :p

My technique depends on the drip tip I use or the mood I'm in. If I'm using a metal drip tip, it's between my lips and teeth. If plastic, I found that I sometimes bite down gently on the tip.

I always do a mouth to lung inhale, but that's also the same way I smoked a cig. Never straight to the lung. The exhale depends on the flavor. Sometimes through the mouth and sometimes half through the mouth and half through the nose.
 
For me it really depends on the air-flow of the atomizer in use.

Stock disposable clearomizers and my Smok Trophy Tank hardly draw and I find the mouthpiece buried in my gob to the hilt as I draw with sunken cheeks to get the amount of vapor that I am looking for.

My Ithaka/Clone or Dripper (drilled to 1/16 inch dual air-holes) hardly go into my mouth as the vapor production is much greater (also due to resistance and voltage applied to these two)

The other assorted tanks vary based again on the vape / draw required for me to get the "hit" that I am used to / looking for.
