Signs You’ve Had Too Much Nicotine — and What to Do
Nausea, dizziness, headache and a racing heart are the usual
signs. They typically arrive within minutes of taking in more nicotine
than you are used to, and mild cases ease within an hour or two of stopping.
What it feels like
Nausea, sometimes with stomach discomfort
Dizziness or light-headedness
Headache
A racing or pounding heartbeat
Sweating, or feeling clammy
Shakiness in the hands
These are unpleasant rather than subtle. If you are wondering whether you
have had too much, the answer is

Vape Battery Safety: The Rules That Actually Matter
Lithium cells fail when they are damaged, overheated,
short-circuited or charged badly. Almost every reported vape battery
incident traces to one of those four. In normal use the risk is genuinely low
— which is precisely why the handling rules are worth knowing, because
following them is what keeps it low.
The six rules
Do not leave devices in hot cars. Heat degrades cells
permanently and is the most common abuse a vape actually receives.
Do not charge overnight or unattended. Charge wh

How to Dispose of a Vape Safely (and Why the Bin Is Wrong)
Take it to a battery or e-waste collection point — not the
household bin. Every disposable vape contains a lithium cell, and
lithium cells that get crushed in a refuse truck or a sorting facility are a
documented cause of fires.
This is the least interesting page on this blog and the one with the highest
stakes, so it is short.
Why the bin is the wrong answer
Waste collection compacts. A lithium cell that is crushed or punctured can
short internally, heat rapidly and ignite — and i

Vape Firing By Itself? What Auto-Firing Means and What to Do
A vape that fires without being drawn on has a stuck sensor, and it
is the one fault worth treating with urgency. Every other problem on
this blog is an inconvenience. This one means a coil is heating unattended,
often inside a pocket where there is nothing to carry the heat away.
Deal with it first, diagnose it after.
What to do right now
Take it out of your pocket or bag.
Put it somewhere open and non-flammable — a hard countertop, not a
sofa, a bed or a pile of paper.
Do not put it o

Can You Fly With a Disposable Vape? TSA and Airline Rules Explained
Yes, but only in your carry-on. The FAA prohibits
e-cigarettes and vaping devices in checked baggage, and that is a regulation
rather than an airline preference. The reason is straightforward: a lithium
battery fire in the cabin can be reached and dealt with by the crew, and one in
the cargo hold cannot.
The rules that apply on every US flight
Devices travel in the cabin. In your pocket or your
personal item, never in a checked bag.
Spare batteries too. Loose lithium cells are carry-on only,

Is My Geek Bar Fake? How to Spot a Counterfeit Disposable Vape
The one check that settles it is the authenticity code on the
manufacturer's own website. Nearly every major brand now prints a
scratch-off panel or QR code on the box, and verifying it against the maker's
database takes about thirty seconds. Everything else on this page is supporting
evidence — useful, but not conclusive. The code is conclusive.
This matters more than it sounds. A counterfeit disposable is not a cheaper
version of the real thing; it is an unknown lithium cell and an unte
