Do you find vaping messy?

[ForeverDiving]

I'm (still) a pipe smoker. Quit coffin nails 36 years ago –cold turkey- and have stayed off then since. Started vaping to avoid stinking my home and office as although the pipe smoke can smell fine to some as it's burning, afterwards it stinks like a cantina next morning. I'm now hooked on vapors and have rocketed myself into DIY liquids and RBAs in a few months.

However, if I ever found pipe smoking to be fussy (papaphernalia, aging tobacco tins, cleaning pipes, polishing stems... you name it), vaping is —for me at least– positively messy. I'm washing tanks as frequently as I cleaned pipes, I'm always clipping kanthal, dropping some ejuice somewhere, fussing with kleenexes, etc...

So, what's your experience here, compared to your (hopefully begone) smoking habit? How do you feel about the activity-habit-hobby?

same here, all the time....... my desk constantly looks like I have a cold and no waste basket........
and being an ex pipe smoker too, that juice that runs into your mouth when you needed to clean your pipe a week ago,
is similar to the effect of an ejuice overflow that you didn't quite catch and runs into the corner of your mouth......

there's no winning eh

LOL! Too true. Memory likes to play tricks!

I find it is messy, at times, but.....worth it.

I haven't had a lot of messes recently because I bought a new tank. Guy at the store nonchalantly calls them "disposable" tanks(not even a brand name on them) but they've been the best I've bought(and have lasted the longest in terms of when it needs to be cleaned). I rarely even have juice coming down the center and no flooding.

Even my wife is having issues it seems almost daily with her iclear 16. Before I was going through at least 5 paper towels a day with my Evod, T3s and iclear tanks. Now this generic one is the best....I only go through maybe 1 every 3-4days. How does that make sense?!

My desk is horribly cluttered, kanthal everywhere, cotton everywhere, silica fibers all over the place - MICROFIBER TOWELS laying around all over the house, that's a big one. Different pieces from different mods all over my desk, from I get into fiddling with them and adjusting them at the computer.

As for leaking juice, I don't deal with that two often, but here lately I've had some major leaks learning to fill a few new RBAs. I HATE leaking ejuice

I'm always fighting with tank leaks (Kfs, Nautilus, etc...). The only well behaved ones are the Aerotanks. Easy refill, clean, rebuilding. Not the best of taste and heads clog with every load. I'm waiting for an RSST, hopefully leak proof
