So I am still using my crappy Krave kit while I wait for my Volt to get here. I have only been at this 16 days (smoke free that many as well go me:).
Anyway every now and then when I take a hit from my ecig i get liquid on my lips and can taste it in my mouth. Is this normal! I am assuming not. And is it dangerous to get the juice on your lips or in your mouth? The strength is 14mg
thanks for your help.
Happy 4th!!!

Congrats on 16 days esp considering you're using the Krave. As CommaHolly mentioned make sure the airway tube doesn't have juice in it. If it does just remove from battery and blow into tissue from the mouth end. Wipe it down and also wipe the battery. Even with good PVs the occasional spurt of juice is normal. Could also be from juice condensation forming. Drip Tips help with juice spurts.
Cheer and Good Luck and again congrats.

Thanks! ok I will try the blowing into it thing...is it dangerous to get the liquid in your mouth ( I am going to assume not since it sounds like it happens to people on occasion)

I was used to smoking only 10 or less cigs a day for the last 6 months before I started the e-cig I have been working my way down on purpose. I just tell myself what nicotine i am getting from this is sufficient and i do not let myself vape this more than 10 times a day either and no more than 10 hits per setting. Super happy to have let go of all the nasty chemicals but still would eventually like to get down to either lowest if not 0 nic. I am not sure that I will ever stop vaping simply because I have given up everything else along time ago...drugs, alcohol and caffiene I need something during stressful times lol.

It'd take at least 4mls of that strength juice to poison you outright (to death), but if you taste the juice, and don't start getting panic-attack symptoms within 5-10 minutes, you're fine.
What feels like a lot when you taste it is usually just a few drops-worth.

THANK YOU grindle :) no symptoms just washed my mouth with soap and water and then brushed my teeth and tongue to get stuff off.

The nicotine from analogs is much stronger because of the delivery system. Pretty well impossible to OD from vaping or juice spurts. If you're vaping too much and getting headaches then that's possible Nic OD but nothing dangerous. Vaping is a very personal program and we just vape until we feel the need for nicotine has been satiated and you really can't compare analog nicotine to vaping nicotine as vaping does not deliver as much nic to the body as analogs do. My advice would be listen to your body and vape accordingly. I began at 36 mg and am now vaping 8 mg during the day and 6 mg in the evening. I also will be quitting vaping hopefully in Sept BUT if it doesn't happen no big deal and I won't stress about it.
Cheers and Good Luck.
