Well, im an idiot!!!!

[V4Lis4me]

This is the second time tonight that i have done this (any others here?)



have my black reg batt. with cart sitting on the computer desk that i am vaping regularly right now (i know, but i left the PT downstairs.... and wont get it until i need to refresh my "tasty beverage"!)


....and twice now,

i have picked up, and subsequently tried to vape a bic pen
unintentionally!!!


the worst part is,
i have taken full drags off of the pen before noticing the problem

 

[dreamchildwest]

I keep picking mine up and inserting the wrong end in my mouth.
(That doesn't work so well, either...)

 

[pianoguy]

Hahahaha! Don't light it ;-)

Haha! I've done that numerous times!

Was it the lack of throat hit that tipped you off?? LOL

 

[sawlight]

Just wait until you get the dreaded "colored tounge" man does that suck!

 

[Sauromir]

I've done this twice tonight. I keep sneaking small puffs at my desk. Trying to vape and not set off the data centers halon system is hard work.

i know its funny and all,

but i take the mouth fill approach, then inhale....

so i actually sat there and tried to seriously vape a pen.... it wasnt until the inhale part that i noticed.... both times


.....maybe,

just maybe....

or on second thought...

definetely not...

do i need to stop partaking in the "beverages of choice"

 

[jlmanno]

Picking up that pen or pencil which I've done many times is a lot better than picking up one of those disgusting analogs. Happy Vaping!

I wish I had a "beverage of choice" right now!

you have to fill me in on what exactly a halon-system-detector-thingie-ma-bobber is???


obviously (from the way you state it), it will sense the vapor you are producing..... but why.....
what is its actual purpose....?
like a smoke detector..
or something more in depth?

He works in a computer area, most are set up in "sealed" rooms and if there is a fire the fill the room with halon, an inert gas that takes the oxygen out of the room almost instantly to extinguish fires and prevent loss of data. It's a PITA system to set up, and even harder to understand what does and doesn't set the system off.

 

[GoodDog]

I keep dropping my PV, because it doesn't stay between the fingers as easily as an analog, and jumping up to grab it before it burns the house down...duh! It's nice not to have to worry about holes in furniture and clothing!!!

 

[Pawpaw]

A Halon discharge system replaces traditional fire sprinklers. They're used mostly in places that have lots and lots of electronic equipment that would not react well to water. 8-o

It smothers the fire by displacing oxygen. You don't want to be around if it goes off.

I've vaped in data centers, telco central offices and I even work in a telecom lab. I don't think the vapor has any chance of setting off the detectors unless, possibly, if you blew it directly on them. If you blow it downward, it should get cooled and dispersed and fall to the floor long before it gets to the ceiling.

 

[V4Lis4me]

ya,
i tend to like oxygen......
seemingly much more so than nic......

so, i'll be sure to stay clear of a halon system while its going off!

 

[HzG8rGrl]

I have started wearing tees with a pocket so as not to pull from the LED end! I have to say that it has happened a time or two......LOL. No warmth....No fog..... Is my bat dead?...Dumb azzzzzzz, you put the LED in yo mouth. Have I yet to learn how to use my PV?

 

[Sauromir]

I'm not entirely sure if I could set the system off by vaping. I just don't want to have to try and explain why it went off if it ever did. Playing it safe and all that.

if i were you,
id be extremely cautious as well!

I blame the powers that be at my job. The hospital I work at is a smoke free campus, and as security told me yesterday, grrrr, even vaping (I'm sure the person in question has no idea what vaping is) is not allowed. So the urge strikes, and I puff up at my desk. Lucky for me, I work the graveyard shift, so I'm the only one around.

 

[discoqueen]

I did the pen thing yesterday. Noticed before I got it into my mouth, but it was damn close.

Haven't: tried to flick ashes/flick it out the window yet. Am really HOPING I don't drop and stomp it like an analog - THAT would make me mad.
