I propose that the reason that we reduce our nicotine so quickly is this:
When you smoke you generally smoke the whole cigarette, it's the normal thing to do, hardly anyone ever puts one out half way through. So in theory you are probably taking in more nicotine than you really want just to finish the cigarette. Vaping is different though, you have a few puffs then stop, hence less nicotine being taken in and ultimately reducing your addiction addiction.

Thanks yourgurnard but I think I will decline your kind offer of a job, you may put up a "no vaping sign" eeeeek!!! I think that's unlikely!!!!!

I'd thought everyone reduced nic levels quite quickly and that I was a bit odd in still vaping 24mg nearly 3 months in, lol, but now I feel normal reading this At first I was chain vaping, but that's tapered off, which is really cool, now the chemicals have probably all made their way out. I like sticking at 24mg, as I need never worry I won't get my 'hit', plus I hate how appetite increases if not enough nic; can't be bothered with that. Can't imagine now why on earth I used to smoke ... all these wonderful flavours, fascinating building and mixing, great devices/colours/tanks, no marked fingers, teeth better, that breathing thing lol ... an amazing, and very healthy, hobby, plus you meet so many really great fellow vapers. And, as long as it's not the stinkies, it's all good.

Not odd at all kittyvape. I started on 24, have stayed on 24. And I vape the same amount of juice on a given day. If working I use less than when I'm off. Smoking was both addiction and habit. I cut down the number on many occasions, for a good length of time. But it crept back up. The most convenient thing about vaping is the ability to do it in short bursts. If I have 5 minutes out of the office, away I go.

Though a day without e-cig and I need max strength patches and plastic condom thingy LOL

I found, for me, that the thing I missed even more than he nicotine was the inhaling & exhaling of smoke which is why I decided dripping was the way to go I've gone from 24+mg to depending on what flavour I'm vaping to from 3mg to 0mg, it's the vapour I seem to crave rather than the actual nicotine content. I find trying to find the sweet spot between draw and vapour production plus the calming effects of building coils and shoving cotton through em, to see if that build is the one, has to be the best bit.

I'm sure there's I few on here that would disagree with you on that point.
