Calm before reading(inhaled plastic tip from 901 cart)

Alright, so not trying to cause a panic, but i swallowed the end piece of plastic from my 901, also got a big helping of juice, not huge, but maybe 2-3 drops worth that had built up inside the airflow chamber.

Im not concerned about the plastic tip im sure i'll either get it out thru one end, or the other

But with the juice going directly into my mouth, i spit it out as soon as i realised what happened, should i take any precautions?

You'll be fine man!! No need for alarm. a few drops aren't gonna kill ya just rinse that nasty taste outta your mouth and continue vaping. Hoping the tip comes out gently if it decides to take the southeren route.

heh, i have no idea what happened to the tip, it was just gone and i had juice in my mouth.

I didnt think the 901 tips could pop loose. I new the 510 could. If you got juice your drawing too hard. Take slower easier draws.

Don't spit on anybody

If you're still standing/sitting and typing here - I would say you've lived thru the experience. I've flooded my atty and sucked up a bunch with no place to spit and well heck, I use to chew and swallow that in class way back when.

Tough on the innards and maybe a heck of a headache for an hour or so but that was over 25 years ago ... I lived.

I guess if it were me, the plastic top would be a bit more concerning as that can, in some cases, not make to the back door. Got an 11 year old son who swallowed a dime, by accident (yeah, right) and we had to make sure he made change - he did 2 days later.

This shows that the 901 tips do have a plastic piece as well.

This tip i found out a bit ago was damaged during shipping as a corner of the mouthpiece was broken, which is probably what led to the piece coming out.

I had a couple to come out, but I didn't swallow them. Just lucky I guess. I just leave them out. Big Jim did a video of that risk with 4081's I think. But the 901 insert is smaller and had sharper edges. Hope everything comes out OK.

you sure the plastic piece did not go into your lungs?
My son swallowed a coke bottle cap last year, and we were worried about the lungs.

I have swallowed a few drops of nic by mistake, it just makes your throat really tight and burns...
Try to drink plenty of water...
