Burnt Cartomiser

[Tam (ukigal33)]

Hi all
My husband uses a cartomiser at work. Today when he got home and took it out of his pouch, there was a hole in it. It actually looked as if it was burnt. Does anyone have any ideas why????
We have a manual ego battery so my husband thinks that the button was pressed down and so burnt it.

Ouch it didnt burn him did it uki?

It sounds like that or he vaped it too hard lol but id say he obv pressed against it without reliseing.

Hi UKi - yeah that seems like a likely explanation to me. It hasn't happened to me yet. But i have heard of them going off in peoples pockets ?

Apart from the burnt carto. Hows it going for the two of you ?

Hi Del
Well put in an order at the weekend, which all got delivered today. Sold my last 2 pkts of tobacco and so full steam ahead now. Have still been vaping at work at my desk and everyone is so used to it now. But fingers crossed, from tomorrow will be my first full day without a cigarette.

Brilliant Uki. How bout your hubby ?

Trust me that after two days of vaping you can try a cig but i warn you now....you wont like it. It's like that quick.

Let us know how you get on will you. We are all a bit nosey but more than anything we can all support and offer advice. You're not alone in this. Neither of you.

Well we are doing it together and he also vapes at work. Some of his work mates also have ecigs but like the look of his. I`ll have to get him to promote this forum site lol.

Yeah...get em all in here. Well all squeeze up a bit.

So you and your hubby are going for it from tomorrow ?

I think you'll be ok. After you get the first day out of the way and switch your allegiance to your e cig and relax into it then you're off and running.

Good on you both and very well done.As Dell says you are not alone and have chosen a great forum for any questions or help you may need.Im also very interested in how you get on so please let us know.Regarding the carto,yes it sounds like the button was activated causing it to burn out.You can buy button covers for the ego, or simply take the carto off the device while in the pocket.Good luck both.

Bummer about the carto, I've had my Riva's running on their own too when they've been in my bag. Sometimes if something's pressing against the button you have no way of knowing unless you start to get hot!

Well done to both of you for taking to the ecigs so well. x

Shouldn't laugh I know but that sounds so funny! You''re really supposed to use your mouth for vaping.

Very clever Foxy....lol

Lesson learnt here is. Only put cool or luke warm carto's anywhere near your bottom.
