100 Benefits Of Vaping In SA

4. I can smoke indoors at my house and in my office and dont need to go outside every so often for a smoke, which mostly wasted time.

27. There is no smelly ash involved and this pleases me greatly.
28. No more accidental cigarette butt drops in the car. I'm sure you are all familiar with the following scenario: "Whoops, dropped my cigarette butt. Let me find it. Oh no, can't find it. Stop the car. Ok I can stop here and get out of my car. Can't find it. Damn! Hope there's no fire starting under my seat"
29. No more accidental drops of my smelly cigarette butt water bottle. This one needs some explanation. When I smoked, I smoked outside. I used a half filled Valpre water bottle to ash into and dispose my cigarette butts. The nice thing is that when its full, you just close the cap and chuck the whole bottle away. But it has to stand open to be used. And on a few occasions it's been knocked over. The stench from the ash and butt liquid that spills out takes literally an hour to clean and only goes away after a few days. So glad that's all over!
30. Girls look sexy when they vape
31. It becomes a hobby.
32. My burps have improved to the extent that they sound like a Boeing jet passing 6 feet above making my kids very proud of me. Strangely, not my wife though.

60. A much better experience than smoking. When i started vaping I was trying to get the same experience as smoking, going for the tobacco flavours and trying to take triple drags on my Twisp. Now, give me my dripper and 5Pawns Bowdens Mate anyday. It wins by such a huge margin!!! I dont remember smoking being remotely this good.
61. You can vape while having a headache... it doesn't make it worse.

73. Vaping teaches one lots and lots and lots and lots of patience. Lots. Really. Is it here yet? No? Ok, I'll try and wait some more then.
74 heart-rate, with cigarette when u run or do stairs feel like the heart is pounding for no reason ..... After even only one month of vaping that doesnt happen anymore . And for me ( i ve got panic disorder ) is a big bonus .
75. Laughing, I can have a full hearty laugh without it turning into a coughing fit
76. This may be a bit mean, but ... watching smokers' reactions when I vape during a long meeting - a combination of hatred, envy, wonder and drug-induced craving :cool:

Same here on the coffee. In fact nowadays I have about a cup of coffee, maybe 2, a week - used to be at least 4 a day.
 
Wish I could say the same, still go through 5 to 6 large plungers a day.
 
I vape coffee flavour so need for coffee at all most days..
 
Lovely new benefits added!

Thanks for pulling it together again @Matthee

Now on the topic of vaping on your motor cycle at 120km per hr
That is amazing! Never thought of that before since I dont ride anymore.

And because I don't want to lose another MOD into the dam I also vape as hard as I can when moving from spot to spot at 120km/h on the water!
 
80. Being able to use EDT (aftershave/perfume) and actually smell nice. Not using it to try and cover up the smoking smell(which never really worked anyway).

Just to feedback regarding smoke detectors. So here I am lying on the bed in a hotel room in JHB and I look up and see a smoke detector. So I think let's test the theory out and grab the mini and blow a few dense vape clouds at the smoke detector. No light, nada. So I think "Myth Confirmed".

5 minutes later my door almost gets broken down by hotel security, armed with fire extinguishers, who storm into the room looking for fire. No smoke, no smell so I'm safe and blame the detector as being faulty - hahahahaha what a hoot!!

So end result is "Myth Busted" - vape does activate smoke detectors.

Just an update:

I will still chuckling to myself when suddenly the whole hotel disaster management system triggers and evacuation instructions blare through the speakers. Suddenly not so funny. Anyway after another visit by hotel management, we concur that the cause of the alarm must be a faulty detector :oops:.

Please DO NOT try this as it could have resulted in pandemonium!!:( Bottom line is that some smoke detectors do detect vape.
 
@vaalboy, you are officially my hero for the day. Look on the bright side, at least now you know their disaster management system is up to scratch if a real pawpaw hits the fan
