So me and other guy at work are having a debate, he claims that VAPING has hit its peek and on its way down. I told him him nuts and didn't know what he was talking about. I thinking it's really hot right now.

I think that vaping has not even come close to hitting its peak. As more and more people quit smoking due to health, price of cigarettes, or just a lifestyle choice, ,more and more people are going to understand and get into vaping.

vaping is no where close to a peak how ever you want to measure it, this isnt a US thing either its global and i think will be one of the biggest industries in the world within 10 years, similar to cigarettes now but we can also buy cool shit so itll be that much bigger

i also accidentally quit @AmandaD bought a pen & vaped it all night. looked at my friend and i was like "i think i just quit cigarettes" lol
That is about how it happened for my mother.
But she was laid up recovering from surgery and I refused to go buy her more smokes, I handed her a set up and told her how to use it. I checked back in with her a few hours later and she was all happy and said the exact same thing.
Fast forward three years later and she is rocking MVPs with a protank set up and gets almost violent when I suggest she try a different tank.

I have a protank on a simple 18650 VV Tube mod from eleaf called the iJust. Its kept on my bedside table. I always vape a while before going to sleep or using laptop in bedroom. Protank does the job for that

Bored out the aero base.

Next will be just breaking down and picking her up a aerotank.

Vaping or anything will never hit it's peak until businesses and makers stop making business

It may or may not have peaked, but I don't think I would open a vape shop in my area ..... It's pretty saturated where I am....... Not to mention juice makers are a dime a dozen and many are selling at an incredible discount for reasons that we can all guess the answer to .

I do think vaping has experienced its largest boom growth to date, but will continue to grow at a steady rate

Two cents....

I don't think vaping has peaked at all but to me, the focus seems to have changed. I've been vaping since 2009 so I have witnessed the incredible growth in the industry from new technology to a gazillion new vape stores.

Nowadays though there seems to be more emphasis on chasing clouds and pushing batteries to their max than anything else. For example, there are a shitload of juice vendors that I can't patronize because they cater specifically to the cloud chasers by ONLY selling all or high vg juice only in strengths 8mg or less. Juice made to make your clouds more dense with little to no kick does nothing for my nicotine jones. I vape 24mg, finally down from 36mg, with a preference for at least 70% pg and every puff is inhaled deeply. Now don't get me wrong because I have chased a cloud or 10 in my day, but those cloud chases are simply for show because they don't satisfy my craving. They do look sick though. :D

Overall imho, vaping is here to stay and is just hitting its stride which is why big tobacco is trying to get in on it. My .02.

As commonplace as vaping is to us, there are literally thousands of people that have never heard of vaping. Just in my small town, I've run across many people that see me vaping, ask me what I'm doing and when I mention it to them, they've never heard of it. Now, a handful of people have heard of electronic cigs like the Blu, but anything beyond that is unknown. This in itself tells me that vaping is nowhere in its peak...too many people still don't know about it.

Hey Chris. Flavor wise, I probably vape about 70% tobacco flavors and about 30% other (fruit, dessert, drinks, etc). Also, I probably vape vendor juice and DIY juice.on about a 50/50 ratio. Generally throat hit is more important to me than visible vapor/clouds. I probably vape about 2mls or less a day.

A few of my favorites (not in any particular order) are the Vapor Chef's VC Tobacco #13, Backwoods Brew Exotic 555, NLV Renegade, Dekang DK Tab (I always keep at least 50mls of this), Dekang or Hangsen's Flue Cured, Velvet Cloud Vapor's Bluebeard, Halo's Freedom and Mad Vapes French Vanilla Tobacco.

When you say straight tobacco, does that mean you just vape tobacco flavors maybe sometimes infused with another flavor like vanilla or just straight tobacco flavors with no other flavors added?

I know a dude it happened to. I heard the whole story from him and people who were there. Basically he was just chainvaping like crazy at a vape shop hanging out, and not paying attention. Wound up in the ER on Xmas eve. Now he vapes 0 nic. :)
And that's the only instance I've personally heard.
