This, numerous times a day.  I'm getting quite the taste for burnt cotton

I wouldn't worry too much about how much you're vaping, so long as you aren't smoking. Nicotine delivered via e-liquid is different to nicotine delivered via a cigarette. For a start the vape particles are huge compared to those in cigarettes. Nicotine is taken up by nicotinic receptors in your mouth, nasal lining and lungs but the problem with the increased size of the vape particles is that they don't penetrate in to the depths of the lungs that cigarette smoke does. This has two effects:

1) Less nicotine is getting absorbed via the nicotinic receptors in your lungs as it can't penetrate that deep.
2) You are absorbing less nicotine overall.

This is why if you vape like you smoke then you sometimes don't feel the satisfaction you did when smoking. However there are ways to counter this:

1) Inhale the vape into your mouth and hold it there for a couple of seconds.
2) Inhale it into your lungs.
3) Exhale out through your nose.

By doing the 3 steps above you are utilising a greater amount of nicotinic receptors throughout the respiratory tract.

The other thing that is worth noting is that when smoking you finish the cigarette whether you want the nicotine of not. When vaping you can stop when you want. This leads to the opinion that you are vaping more than you smoked. Nothing to worry about and as long as it keeps you off the fags i'd not let it bother you.

Winner!
