First facepalm moment

[koski88]

Many a times I have unscrewed my ProTank 2 from the tank instead of the battery and lost liquid... multiple facepalms

Sounds like most of the "incidents" have juice as the culprit. I am sure this won't be my last. I think I am on par with the other who mentioned walking out with a "starter kit" that was marked up 400%...

With all the facepalms in this thread, I don't think a normal facepalm will work!

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 ...

Embarassingly enough....I have done this more than once....

Put my brand new 12ml bottle of Paradice form Pioneer Vapes down after filling up. went to pick it up by the dropper tip... Didn't screw the lid on so about 5ml went on the carpet for my homies.

My worst was forgetting to put the base back on the pt2 mini after refilling and trying to screw it back on to the battery. Naturally, this happened as I'm about to head out to work.

My biggest facepalm must be the time I wanted to adjust the freshly filled tank on my cartomizer attached to the battery, which resulted in me pulling the tank clean off the carto. Second biggest facepalm was instinctively trying to put the tank (now half-full) back on the carto resulting in the rest of the liquid ending up in the battery

Of course the liquid was a very aromatic liquorish flavor which I couldn't stand the smell of. I swear I could smell it 24/7 for 10 days straight

I've spilt juice plenty of times from accidentally turning the wrong cap off.

When I realized what I had done, I decide to fling my hands upwards

The visual on this? Is what makes it art

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.

lol, use a paperclip or something similar to make the hole bigger.

Recoiled my evod. Screwed it on without putting back on the metal post. Screwed it onto my battery and came back 5 mins later to see my battery chilling in eliquid. Sadness.

Taking apart and washing out my atty's over the sink ... after dropping a couple of drip tips, washers and coil heads down the drain, I finally smartened up and started using a strainer .... go figure.

I absentmindedly picked up a nearby lighter and tried to light my eGo.

Heres mine: I got myself a Discount Vapers BCC, which I really like (cant beat the price, and I'm low on cash). The coil was getting a bit burn-y, so I tried to dry burn it. Well, I messed that up and it stopped firing, so I threw it out and ordered a pack of replacement coils.

I was super excited when they got here, so I went to install one right away. When I got the package open I realized that I had thrown out the bottom part that holds the coil unit in place. I thought that the replacements would include them for some reason. And now they're out of stock

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.

LMAO.... Thanks... I needed that!!!

Forgot to take the battery sleeve off my PT mini 2 and tried to refill it. Half of that days nic intake was absorbed through the skin of my thighs :-(

I encouraged my husband to try my gear in an effort to get him more into vaping and less into bumming cigarettes from his mother. She vapes, but only to reduce her cigs, she hasn't quit completely. He now exclusively used my gear and won't use his stuff, and it too close to Christmas to buy more vape gear for myself. Should have invited him to try my stuff AFTER Christmas.

I removed and tried to clean the wicks on my MT3 with water. I watched them disintegrate right before my eyes. Now this may not seem like a big deal but I am NOT a DIY kind of gal. I should have known not to mess with the heads. The local B&M shop was closed (it was Sunday) so there was no replacing anything until Monday. Thankfully both of my housemates vape and had an extra tank for me to borrow.

 

[MikeZ28]

Had a gunked up protank head. Removed it and took the chimney off to remove flavor wicks and dry burn it. My new torch for recoiling catches my eye and I think... that'd do a better job of burning the gunk off. So after 10-15 seconds of heating the coil I stop but the head keeps smoking... and smoking. It's then I realized that not only did I burn off the gunk but I managed to burn out the rubber insulator too.

I went to check my phone and pressed the home button 3 times. Giggled.
