Drip tip blunder

[greentea86]

Today a habit I had while smoking marlboro 27's come back to haunt me today. I always bit my cigarette when I first put it into my mouth because I never used my hands while smoking. Well today I instinctively bit down on my aluminum drip tip and almost chipped my tooth! After the whole thing I laughed inside and was thinking this problem is small in comparison to what I could be facing with anologs. Has anyone else had a similar occurrence where old habits got the best of them while vaping?

None other than the one you just described, which is why I've stayed away from any metal drip tips. I've found that acrylic drip tips are alot easier on the teeth, and I can distinguish my flavors because of their various colors.

I was holding my ecig in my mouth with an acrylic drip tip on it, didn't almost break my tooth, but it fell out of my mouth, landed on the floor at just the right angle and the drip tip broke off inside the atty, it was my favorite drip tip for my 510's. Not sure I could break a 306 tip, but if there is a way, trust me I'm the one that would do it!

Old habits? Oh yes...threw a Joye 510 baby battery out the window of my car when I was done. I would venture to guess that we all have done something that reflects back on our old habit. As for your DT, maybe consider using delrin/acrylic/rubber DT's so you don't wind up with a dental bill.

Talk about mindless smoking habits... my first few days, while working on the computer, my hand kept picking up my lighter and trying light the end of my KGO battery. Thank goodness its steel and not plastic.

I still reach for a lighter all the time (my gf always wants the house smelling good with candles). It feels good though when this happens, as I realize how much smoking analogs was/is embedded in my brain!

I feel your pain... My first week with my Magma DT I tried to bite it and hold it on the right side of my mouth while I was posting on fb (about how awesome vaping was!). Problem was, the back right side of my mouth is mostly filings! I threw that thing halfway across the room, thankfully that little Magma batt is pretty tough.

Tough enough to survive the next smoking habit blunder. I tried to flick the "ashes" out of the car window while the window was still up and smashed the led side into window. I broke the the plastic endcap off. i still have that same batt 1 year later and it still works.

Many moons ago I tried a disposable and actually lit it, that was the last of that lol
