My co-worker came over to check out my PV. He took a really hard rip on the mouthpiece and sucked a buncha liquid into his mouth. I didn't know at first, but a few minutes later he told me that he really liked the idea, but he hated the flavor on his lips and the inside of his mouth.

I told him that maybe he'd prefer a different flavor so I loaded him up with some less sweet juice. I watched him take a drag, and I saw how hard he was dragging. Immediately I knew that he would be sucking juice into his mouth. I told him to drag slower and whipe his lips/mouth off.

He started getting much bigger vapes and better hits overall.

This gave me an idea. What happens if your batteries are all dead but you have a dropper and plenty of juice. Would it hurt to drip a drop or two of 16mg or 24mg right under your tongue and let it absorb?

I know nicotine is toxic, and after reading through a couple of posts on here, I have seen that 40+mg of nicotine may be fatal if it is all absorbed in a short period of time.

All this being said, is dripping into your mouth in a pinch ok to do?
 
NO!

I mean...
Its pretty toxic, and its concentrated in your mouth, it just sounds dangerous.

It might cause sores in your mouth, which has already happened to me, and maybe even damage your teeth and gums if you did it all the time.

I get juice in my mouth sometimes too, but not on purpose, and it always leaves the spot that it got on very raw feeling, like the same raw-ness you get from chewing tobacco.

Whatever you do, don't swallow it.

A person after my own heart
You are my hero, a junkie,
but MY hero!!!

I have by accident (sure it was) got enough juice in my mouth 36mg, that all I did was hiccup for an hour. After that I actually enjoyed the flavor and taste, Not only that, but it took away any major cravings I was having at that time

I remember it well, it was TW's juice and it went down pretty well,
PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE ME OR DO AS I DO, however, I am still alive and I am one of the sloppiest vapors on earth, it gets on my hands in my mouth, somehow, I still get to vape another day

I think I must be a horrible vaper, because there is only one model of e-cig that I seem to be able to use without getting a mouthful! I don't find it to be a pleasant thing when it happens, though... I run for the bathroom sink and rinse and brush my teeth. Definitely wouldn't do it on purpose.

I have found if juice gets in your mouth. Usually three reasons. Over fill the atomizer or the cart. The battery is low.
...or anoither reason I've found - you just drag too sharply (ie dragging the juice out too quickly and not allowing enough time for it to vapourise on the atomiser)

It wouldn't cause any overdose problems, but it tastes pretty meh, and might cause soreness or mouth ulcers. The top of your tongue is probably a wiser choice, since it's rather less sensitive. I've tasted a couple of mine (only a drop at a time,) and I have to confess I'd rather have a pinch of snuff if my minipipe failed me. If I didn't have any snuff on me, then I'd probably try it again rather than go without for more than a few hours, but it would be pretty much a last resort.

I know nicotine is toxic, and after reading through a couple of posts on here, I have seen that 40+mg of nicotine may be fatal if it is all absorbed in a short period of time.

40mg is just about at the very bottom end of the lethal range for a small non-smoker. And even then you'd need to drink more than 1ml of the strongest juice available to ingest that much (and half a teaspoonful of 16mg!) At 20 drops per ml (roughly,) that's not going to be a problem with accidental cart leakage, or a couple of drops on your tongue.
As with so many things in life, it's all a matter of dosage and common sense. I mean, if we had more sense, we probably wouldn't have picked up a nicotine addiction in the first place :)

All this being said, is dripping into your mouth in a pinch ok to do?

I'd have to be fairly desperate, but if I was - yeah, I'd do it again. It didn't cause any irritation to my mouth lining, but YMMV.
Diluting it might be more palatable/less irritating.
