In my month of vaping, I have a few days stand out...
The first came a few days after starting, and it was when I realized I was having nicotine OD. I was chain vaping my original three bottles I bought, and realized I had received too much nicotine. It really made me question if this would work. If it wasn't for the information and support on ECF during that time, I don't think I would of stuck with it.
The second time actually spanned two-days and came about a week in a half after starting. In the afternoon, I caught my first case of "vapor tongue." Everything I vaped tasted very bitter. I couldn't get the taste out of my mouth no matter how hard I tried. I felt even more defeated when I woke up the next day and still had it. Thankfully it went away in the evening that second day. I have since bought some cinnamon flavored juice just for this problem.
The other time was Sunday, when my battery pin on my eGo pushed down to hard and I could no longer get it to fire. I tried to pull the pin up, but I think I broke it since it still won't fire. Thankfully, I just received a back-up from fasttech two days prior and better yet, my Vamo arrived the next day. Phew.....

It really is horrible when unfortunate things like this occur. I have at least 20 bottles of liquid and after looking over them, nothing seems appealing at the moment as the flavour is just not there. May have to load up some cinnamon red hot in the Protank
The other bad day may come later today...I have only a little bit of juice left of my favorite flavor (Chai Tea) and my order won't be delivered until tomorrow because of the Holiday. I have plenty of back-up juice of other flavors, but when I can't have the one I want I get even more cranky...Haha Vape on my friend
While I was in a 5 hour Poker tournament at the Casino, my HH atomizer suddenly stoped working......needless to say after a couple of hours I had to bum a real cigarette........... YUCK!

It happens, nothing tasted right ran out of my favorite juice. Went on a juice hunt. All in all the substitute juice I got turned out to be one of my favs...
for my very first kit i got an ego-t starter, but did not order any extra atomizers/cartridges with my kit. after 21 days of vaping, both atomizers failed. i tried my best to fix them, but they were just gone. i had read that the two atomizers could last 3 months, and unfortunately i believed it and relied on that. i couldn't vape for 10 days, and went through almost 3 pouches of drum. ;>.<
a few months later i started using vision ce2 clearos. the first 5 pack was really expensive, but i was able to get 2 months of use out of them. i started using the second 5 pack on the day of a staff christmas party. on my walk there a clearo came apart from the 510 connection, and i lost all my liquid. the other ones just didn't work as well or were faulty and they were all i had for another month.
those would have to be my worst vaping days so far. luckily it was within my first few months of vaping. i haven't really had another truly frustrating vaping day since.

I would say the worst vaping experience for me was when I went on away for X-Mas and brought 3 bottles of DIY juice that I made and no other juice. Well . .the liquid nic I used ended up giving me sores inside my mouth. I was stuck at my in-laws for a week with only this juice - I tried to keep my vaping to a minimum but my mouth was shredded by the time I got back home.
Another frustrating day was the first day I tried making my own coils. The first 3 or 4 coils I made just popped on me as soon as I fired them. The next several all had hotspots. Finally I made one that worked great - but it only worked for about 4 hours and then it stopped working well. It still fired - but not much vapor. I tried testing the output while it was attached to my smoktech telescope and prompty shorted the telescope - causing it to get really hot.
The battery was fine but the little spring in the switch must've gotten really hot and lost it's springiness. Then I spent the next 2-3 hours taking the switch apart so I could restretch that little spring. To this day I can't set my telescope down without it firing under it's own weight - so I always have to lock it out. It works, though . .and I learned that you can short the telescope by touching the negative lead of a multimeter to the body (duh).

My worst vaping experience was early on before I learned the backups for the backups for the backups lesson. I had one mod to my name (a Janty stick) and it broke. Here I am sitting around with half a gallon of juice, plenty of batts and attys but no way to fire it all up. After trying several ill advised methods of vaporizing my juice, and buying a pack of analogues I wound up making my first mod. That became the beginning of a whole new obsession. Now I'm constantly designing mods in my head and looking for cool enclosures for the next build. I think I have six or seven sitting on a shelf and have made 15 or 20 for friends to get them off of the stinkies
Worst 24 hours was when my Evod cracked, and then my Ego-Twist button became unseated and I ripped out the wires trying to fix it. I felt better after buying a Protank to replace the Evod, and an ELA to replace the eGo.
Bout a week after i took up vaping again, we travelled up into the mountains. i was using a carto tank at the time. the altitude change caused them all to flood(the one in it and the 2 spares i took). i panicked and stopped and bought a pack of cigs. Smoked half of one, was disgusted with the taste and chucked the pack. that was my worst day.
When I started on the Blu. I had 2 (yes, 2!) batteries die on me at the same time and one screw in USB piece. The day before, the charging pack took a dump. So I was left with one battery, and luckily, an extra battery screw in USB piece. Now, if I sense a little issue with any kind of battery, I immediately order new and get rid of the old. Hey, it is like having a pack of smokes, and the lighter lights once out of 3 tries.
I went out on a day long fishing trip with a fresh battery and two clearo's filled with juice. The first one worked fine and all of a sudden the coil stopped working. I switched over to the 2nd one and after about an hour it started gurgling juice in the center tube up into my mouth. When I took it off the battery juice spewed out the bottom all over the place, and the clearo started leaking from the view window. It happened on a Sunday too which is when my local B&M was closed. It was a long night sharing the one clearo I had left with my wife but we made it through till the next morning. Guess who was the first customer at the store on Monday? 
I haven't had many bad days. One time stand out. When I used to use carto tanks. One time I put the carto condom filled into a phiniac, I had trouble with the o rings but finally got it in. Then, I filled the tank of course. Thing is I forgot to punch the dang holes in the carto.
When I first started with a cigalike I bought a "months" worth o f pre field cartridges. well one lone week before payday I ran out lucky for me I but all the old ones in a container and I went through that whole container to find a good one. I found a few that got me going till payday I added 2 more packs to my count I was so nervous that week
The day the juice ran dry! In the beginning, I underestimated how much juice to have vs my vaping needs. Nothing worse than wanting to vape and waiting for juice to steep! Never made that mistake again!
So far my worst day was when all my batteries died within 5 min of each other. Felt like the longest 2 hours of my life
My worst day will be tomorrow. Planed on setting up the lab an mix my next 6 months supply of juice. Was prepping BBQ yesterday and tried to slice my thumb off sharping the Messermeister on a steel. Been 20 years since I cut myself like that... One usually learns caution when handling butcher knives.
Just remember... You're bad day vaping is always better than a good day smoking.
Worst one so far this time around would be the first 2 weeks of quitting. My mouth was NOT happy with me. It hurt so bad some days it was painful to vape. Then I got down for a couple days and felt like death warmed over coupled with mouth issues. That was just no.
As far as ecig its self, had a day where it seemed like I did nothing but mess with my atomizers for my protank and then the day my only 2 cartos went out one right after the other and I spilled my whole agr carto tank on my hand and mouth attempting to salvage the cartos. That was a day I hope doesn't happen again. Btw.. boge cartos for the win. Seriously.. they are so much better then the ones i had lol
