Vaping. Anyone else here doing it?
Wife got me a set up not too long ago to help ween me off cigs. I was lukewarm about it at first but the more i try some of these flavors the more I'm diggin this shit. Still gettin my nicotine fix and some tasty smoke (vapor) to boot. FWIW the Blueberry Cheesecake is fucking glorious!

Re: Vaping. Anyone else here doing it?
I don't, but the drummer and bassist in my last band both did. I think it's great - a nicotine hit that doesn't fill your lungs with tar and carbon monoxide, and doesn't make your clothes/hair/car/home smell like tobacco. No wonder the cigarette industry is going apeshit mad over it.
The real question, for me, will be whether vaping begins to attract a clientele who were never tobacco smokers to begin with. Right now, all the advertising seems to be directed at smokers, but I could see other people getting into a cheap, clean hit of a stimulant that does help you somehow focus and relax at the same time.

Fair question. My daughter tried the Blueberry cheesecake flavor and said if it didn't have nicotine in it she would buy some (she's, obviously, a non-smoker). She does have a hooka though. If I had to choose, I'd prefer that she ditch the hooka and vape. Regardless, you have a very valid point.

Yeah I wouldn't recommend nicotine for anyone, unless you think it's a good idea to have a useless, addictive, costly monkey on your back. Glad OP likes the new tech though, harm reduction is a great thing.

Most of my smoker friends have made the switch. I don't smoke cigarettes but I frequent Hookah bars and many of them have started selling the vape's as well. I'll stick to my green tea hipster hookah for now, but it is nice that smokers have an alternative to nasty ass cigarettes.

Re: Vaping. Anyone else here doing it?
I do. Haven't smoke one single cigarette since New Years Day
Johnson Creek Vanda juice is godly

I started off getting relatively high nicotine levels, but now I go 1.1%

Re: Vaping. Anyone else here doing it?
My sister-in-law was a heavy (nasty) smoker and started the vapor thing 3 months ago. I don't think she has smoked a cigg since. It's a good thing there is no fire involved because she has burned holes in just about everything she owns, clothes, furniture, bed linnens and blankets, her car interior, and herself. I expected her to burn her house down some day because she is so f-ing stupid she smoked in bed, I hope that threat is over. Some people are just too stupid to have a lit cigarette in their hand.
If this helps people get away from tobacco, I think it's great.

Re: Vaping. Anyone else here doing it?
I vape using a Joyetech Ego...I enjoy it, but it hasn't replaced cigs for me totally yet...Not sure how that works for people. Even with the stronger nicotine, there is something missing from the vape that a real cigarette provides.
Either way, I have a prescription for Chantix that I need to pick up from the pharmacy, just haven't done it yet because the side effects make me nervous...And I'm curious what the 30 year results from tests for that drug will return...I mean, it does something to receptors in your brain, there's something about that that bothers me...but then again, smoking for 30 more years isn't any more healthy
