First facepalm moment

[WileECoyote]

I knew it was bound to happen. I was standing back and admiring the new mods to my stashbox with my PV in my hand. For some reason I decided to pull the tank right off while the carto was still attached to the battery. When I realized what I had done, I decide to fling my hands upwards thus splashing about 3ml of Very Cherry and Cowboy about the living room. I think Loki did it!

​

Anyone else care to share some facepalm moments?

LOL, I can't imagine what you must have been thinking before or after, LOL Face palm moment for me would be trying to diy while my cats were on nip. That is so not a good idea.

Well, frankly, I'm always gratified to hear of someone else doing something "dumb" - means I'm not the only one!!

Before, "That looks pretty good. I am awesome."
After, "That was dumb, I am stupid. Oh Crap, where is the cat?"

LOL

Worst I have done so far is to try and change the coil in my PT 2 ... without inverting it first ... wound up wearing about 1/2 a tank of juice that day ...

My first starter kit after shopping around online.

I've done worst. If you've ever tried sample sized 6ml bottles from the Vapor Chef, you'll know that they are hard to get the juice out. I squeeze it so hard, the top popped off and I had almost 6ml of juice on my lap.

Twice I've tried to fill an Evod without removing the base. Both times it was with Boba's Bounty. Couldn't waste the cheap local juice, had to waste the good expensive juice.

Forgetting to replace head while screwing on a full evod on an ego. Juice everywhere lol

Lol....that is why I have not started to DIY e-liquid....my vet calls my 4-month old kitten "Cat on crack" or "Hell on wheels"....I named her Indy (got her on July 3rd) but never knew she was going to live up to her name...as in Indy 500 ..lol

Facepalm for me was showing someone my new atomizer coil head I just rebuild and held the tank upside down till my socks were "juiced"...doh

I did exactly that a few days ago. Couldn't figure out why juice was coming out of the bottom when I didn't see any in the tank. Oops!

Well, I guess that would have been my first moment as well... making my first post my second. Crud.

Trying to remove a full evod by turning the top instead of the base. Juice all over my shirt! I only facepalmed the second time I did this

 

[glowplug]

I think I have done all of these things, but, to my credit, only once!

I have grabbed the coil on my IGO-L to adjust it while it was on a battery and I had the button pressed.

Mine was when I first started my DIY lab... I now always make sure that my concentrated flavors have their lids screwed on tight after using. It has been over a week since I spilled one accidentally and I still smell fresh strawberries when I walk in the house.

Once I wanted to change my PT and screwed the top right off of the base, juice all over my battery, does that count?

 

[rob_in_md]

No, I have NEVER tried to light a cigalike with a lighter. Nope. Never did that more than once.

If it doesn't count for you, it doesn't count for me either.

The really bad facepalm moment for me is buying a Brilliant Smoke starter kit without doing ANY research on Egos on an impulse buy. It wasn't that painful (to the wallet) of an experience and I still use part of the kit.

The iClear 30 is filled by removing the drip tip. The iClear 30S is not. If you try that on the S model it simply fills up the air channel then tries to fill your work surface.

I, uh, read that in an internet post. Yeah, that's it...
