Hitting the six hour mark!

July 24th, 2009

OK… so nearly six hours in and I’m still on my first battery and my first cartridge. I’ve gone about my day fairly normally except for the fact that I’m not stopping all activities to have a smoke when I crave. And in doing this I’m already learning something VERY interesting to me. It seems that I crave a smoke often, but I don’t give myself time to finish the whole thing. This afternoon, at the office, I felt a craving and I answered it by taking a drag of my e-cig. Then a second. Then I was ready to put it away and move on. I’d have had to stop working – go outside and walk 50 yards from the building, in the back, out of sight – then light up. Pull a few hard drags off the analog and then snuff out 1/2 of the smoke and dash back into the office. Even hastier and more wasteful on ugly weather days. So I think I might actually end up saving even MORE than I had thought. I’m nearly 6 hours into my vaping experience – no cravings for an analog and still on the first charge and cart! I wonder how long this first one will go? So far… I’m 12 analogs into the day. Stay tuned!

(NOTE: Updates will be staggered but quite interesting this weekend as I am at a family function that includes some drinking – so it will be a REAL test of the stamina of the e-cig hardware and cartridges.)

Have a great – tobacco free – weekend!
