Sounds a daft question and obviously vague as each case is different but.....
A bit long winded again sorry (I promise to keep future posts shorter!) but to understand my reasons I've included my journey from smoke to vape
I HAD to quit smoking due to narrowing of the arteries and had an operation (angioplasty) due to this.
I had smoked for 30+ years (mostly roll ups but tailor mades now and then) and struggled to quit as I enjoyed it too much, I tried everything but Vaping was my answer, I started at 10mg strength and soon weened down to my current 3mg.
Before my op I was smoking way too much, 30+ rollups (with filters) a day, Vaping has become quite an obsession and a hobby, I enjoy all the building, trialling juices, shiny new gear etc. But the main drawback is the amount I am vaping, because I have so many different tanks and juices on the go it's hard to estimate but I figure I am getting through around 30ml of juice a day (maybe less) at 3mg strength.
My local B&M said 3mg is next to nothing and as good as not smoking, I have zero faith in this shop as they sold me nothing but crap overpriced products and blamed the way I vaped for a faulty leaking tank.
I definitely enjoy vaping more than I did smoking but concerned about my nicotine intake, my habit is more leaning towards higher wattage vaping = more juice consumption but I much prefer the smoother warm flavour hit, I don't go too high wattage (between 50 - 60 average) but 115 watts on my iJoy (iLeak) Limitless XL due to the supplied atomisers.
I am going to try mixing zero nicotine flavours and 3mg flavours to try and cut back.
My son vapes and went to zero Nic but ended up smoking again on top of vaping, something I am keen to avoid.
Any information or advice welcome.
