Slight shock from Halo G6?

[sk8man121]

Hey guys, just a quick question. I recently bought a Halo G6 cigalike battery and while I was just washing the drip tip, i realized I had the battery sort of in the same hand and possibly got a little water on it - definitely not a lot, and it didn't fall into the sink or anything. I feel like I may have felt a small shock, though, and I'm trying to figure out if that's possible or if that could just be in my head - I kinda freaked when I saw I had gotten some water on it (there was no carto on it).

The battery seems to be firing just fine, but is it safe for me to continue vaping with it? I'm worried about it exploding or something....

Has anyone ever heard of these batteries malfunctioning in a dangerous manner?

WWBD? Maybe he'll chime in on this.

Did you get water IN it? With other electrical devices with a battery (ie cell phones) I've read that if they are dropped in water (which you said yours wasn't but just got wet) you can put them in some dry rice & the rice will draw any liquid out of them. Maybe try that if you think some water got inside the unit. If none got in it I don't think you have anything to worry about once it's dried off. I've gotten my cigalike batteries wet before & they still worked.

Yea, I'd more aliken it to what would happen if it was used out in the rain for a sec. It's charging now and seems okay...

Any other input, though, please don't hesitate.

Those batteries do not have the voltage nor current capabilities to provide a shock that you can feel other than perhaps your tongue, it was all in your head

I suspect it was your imagination. I would dry it as best I could (paper towel, flick it, etc) and let it sit for a few hours to dry a bit more. Then if it still works, I would vape it

Somehow I doubt he'll be dropping in here any time soon
