Be careful with your carrying your juice in pockets. BURNS...

[sunkissedbeach]

Hey everyone.
I hope you are all still vaping.


I have been vaping for 10 months now I gave up analogs the day I got my first e cig, never looked back.

I had noticed a few times a circular shaped red mark on my ...., or front of leg since March and I didn't put a lot of thought into it until this past week.

I had always been carrying around with me my juice in either my front or rear pocket of my jeans when I am out at the barn riding my horse which is every day.
This past week I noticed a circular burn on the front of upper leg high up where the pocket of my jeans sits is exactly where the bottle of juice was sitting. I was vaping a 24 mg strength of Tasty vapor butter rum.
The burn area is a perfect circle and it really hurts it is quite deep.

I realized that I must NOT carry my juice this way any longer it does have the tendency to leak a bit out of the bottle.

I am going to start using a fanny pack instead.

Be careful folks e juice can cause nasty burns if exposed to the skin.

Yep, I hear you. I made that same mistake as well. I also did it once with a zippo lighter that I overfilled. Wow not cool at all.

Dropped my Chuck destroying the button. I had a carto attached and noticed a burning smell... the carto cap was melted and spewing juice all over my 3 year old jacket. That is the longest I have had a non-leather jacket for... boohoo

I an using an Adams food coloring small plastic 7ml. bottle with removable drip tip for carry that doesn't seem to leak.
A zip plastic baggy & a spare one might help.

I had a Zippo that leaked like that & that was the last I saw it.

I think a lot of us guys have had the Zippo lighter fuel burn. We can relate.

ive had my skin exposed to 24mg and 36mg a lot of times with no irritation...maybe it has to be on my skin longer...or MAYBE...my skin is made of diamond lattice and it is indestructable

...maybe it has to be on my skin longer...

That's what she is saying.

Well I had been carrying around that bottle in my front or back pocket every single day for months. I have now had several round irritated areas shaped in a circle that were really itchy. This last time is the only time it actually ripped through the top layers of my skin and caused me EXTREME pain raw raw nerve ending pain.
I am going to use the tips that I received on using a different bottle AND using a zip lock bag. I am not going to re peat my mistakes.

Thanks to all who responded.

One of my early posts: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ng/76076-good-argument-pocket-protectors.html

Embarrassingly recently, I learned another thing the hard way--if you've been sitting at the computer for too long and your eyes have begun to water, and if you know you're not in the habit of ever having a tissue handy in your pocket unless you earlier blew out your atty, do NOT use that tissue to wipe your eyes.

Yep, when I get juice in my mouth, I immediately wipe it out and then rinse my mouth. Even after I do that, my lips burn and swell up. Who needs botox, LOL. Thanks for the post, as that confirms to me that it is the nicotine thrashing my lips.
