The New Vaper Persona

What is the new vaper persona?

Many entered the world of vaping in search for an alternative to cigarettes.
The appeal is the look and feel of a cigarette in a more discreet package. Ask
a smoker why they smoke, and their answer will carry a tinge of shame and
stigma.

Out of the ashes of the burnt-out smoker culture comes something different: a
breath of fresh air. The vaper, unlike the smoker, will share their customized device
with pride and share the benefits. A genuine vaper doesn’t imitate the smoker.
Instead, they stand distinct. Vaping has grown its own community with its own
subculture. It is its own movement. This distinguishing nature is a hallmark of
the vaper identity.

No two vapers are alike, as seen by
the diverse ways that vapers personalize their experience. For instance, customizing
a build requires some know-how, so it’s no surprise that vapers are tech-smart.
Internet savvy, vapers congregate in online forums to discuss modifications and
share specs. Whether they’re fine tuning voltage, choosing between a tank or a
drip tip, building a fresh coil or finding the right PG to VG ratio in their
batch to vape at, every choice becomes an expression of the vaper.

The vaper with the light saber
shaped, rebuildable, drip tip mod is a proud nerd and understands that patience
and fine tuning make for a richer experience later. Another person with a
sleek, portable system, is they type of vaper who enjoys their sessions when
on-the-go.

The device of choice becomes an extension of the vaper, reflecting their unique
personality. Even the e-juice customizes to match
the vaper: sweet, sour, minty or something mysterious.

What can we say about the vaper
persona in general when variety is the name of the game? Vapers are conscious
and unashamed. They value individuality and seek ways to express their
personalities. They are tech-savvy and they understand internet culture. Most
of all, they a lot of them are do-it-yourself types who aren’t afraid to get
their hands oily to create the experience just the way they like it.
