I started smoking at the age of fourteen when it made me "cool" back in 1985 from which I would smoke on average a 25 pack each day until the age of fifty when I was introduced to Vaping and I fell in love with its smooth non harsh experience when I inhaled a puff. I have to admit also that another factor of my switch was that at the time Vaping was cheaper than cigarettes  I am now fifty two years old and still Vaping Mint eliquid that is 50/50 VG to PG with Nicotine at 20mg/mL and I don't have the phlegm or cough that I did while smoking, or the shortness of breath. Even smelling a smoker after a cigarette has become unpleasant. However I do have some negative points to mention. First is that a cigarette you light up and smoke it. Then when you reach the end you butt it out and your done for a while until you're next one. With Vaping I'll be puffing on it constantly all day except for situations like entering a No Smoking/ No Vaping property like a building, however I have puffed in the bathroom figuring that it is odorless and could be explained as a breath mint. The other factor that I need to mention is if you Vape and ever go camping or out in nature, even outside in your backyard take a extra good look at your device before puffing because the flavorings, such as fruit attract insects, Especially ants that will crawl right inside the vaporizer and become unpleasant when consumed...
