My Vaping Experience

[Hawise]

I raised the vape to my mouth. The thought "Hmm, this doesn't feel quite like it usually does." filtered slowly through my brain. Oh, so slowly. Before it had the chance to reach a neuron that took interest, I pressed fire.

YEEEOOOW! I hurled my mod to my desk. I swore. Then I swore more.

The funny feeling? Oh, that would have been the brush of the bare coil I was rewicking against my lip.

 

[Anise]

Ouch! Bet that doesn't happen again!

I never vaped a hot coil, but when dry burning once I blew on a hot coil to cool it off for a wick and blew to close, burnt my lip good

I think it happens to us all once....it's certainly happened to me and will never, ever happen again. If it hasn't happened to you...well, your time too will come, so don't laugh at us too hard

I knew I was such a pro I wouldn't burn myself. Ended up with a tiny brand on my thumb for my hubris.

Been there, done that, got 7 wraps of 28g branded into my upper lip

I've done that exactly once --ouch and twice I had refilled my tank and did not yet put the top-cap with mouthpiece back on - must have gotten distracted, picked up my vape, pushed the button and got a mouthful of warm juice.

Ive branded my fingers a few times, fumbling while firing and tweaking, or cleaning coils. I hope i never stick a hot coil to my mouth. I dont use my rda's as much as the rta's so hopefully im safe.

Ya, it happens once in a while. But my bet is it will never happen to you again

I dripped for a while but never nailed my lip. I did get my finger good once (and it never happened again)

Live and learn

My thumb carried a scar for a few months from one of my first builds.

Ya, but could you count the number of wraps on the coil from it ?!?

 

[ilporcupine]

Hmmm.
RTA=5 RDA=4
GoooooaaaL!

Yes for several days, 8 wraps. Strangely it quit hurting fairly quickly.

Darn, for a little while there I thought I really was unique

Mine also didn't hurt for long. I think these burns are not deep enough to be really nasty. The coils are pretty hot at contact but they don't have much mass so they cool down quickly. At least that's my theory.

I still didn't do it again though

More like callus than a burn. I did toast a fingernail a couple of times after that. Those were smelly.

I’ve definitely burned my fingers more times then I care to admit; my method of not burning my lips is to have a second vape to vape while I rebuild/rewick the other

Heard that. Nothin worse than desperation.

Good luck.

 

[Opinionated]

I find it strange all of you who burn your fingers as I do that on purpose. .. lol

I actually do too, it's a weird habit I have but after pulsing my coil, while I'm waiting for the coil to cool enough to wick it, I check how cool it is by touching it with my finger - I do this especially when I'm not in take my time mode..

So, periodically I can tell just how impatient I am.. lol.

But it doesn't hurt, from cooking and baking I've burned myself often enough that at some point over the last 40 years it stopped hurting...

To the OP.. OUCH! You have my deepest and most heartfelt sympathy. .
