What to Do If Your Vape Falls into Water?

What to Do If Your Vape Falls into Water?

Accidents happen — whether it’s the sink, a puddle, or even the toilet, dropping your vape into water can be frustrating. But don’t panic! With the right steps, you can often save your device or at least minimize the damage. Follow this practical guide to handle the situation effectively.


1. Turn Off Your Vape Immediately 🔌

If your vape is still powered on, switch it off right away. Water and electricity don’t mix — cutting the power quickly is crucial to prevent serious damage.

2. Dry the Exterior Quickly 🧻

Use a tissue or a dry cloth to wipe down the outer surface of your vape. Pay extra attention to the charging port and buttons to make sure no water remains.

3. Don’t Turn It On Yet! ⏳

Even if it looks dry, resist the urge to power it up. Moisture inside the device can cause a short circuit. Let it sit for at least 24-48 hours to ensure it’s completely dry before testing.

4. Use Rice or Silica Gel 🌾

Just like saving a wet phone, placing your vape in a bag of uncooked rice or silica gel packets can help absorb moisture more quickly. It’s a simple trick that increases the chances of saving your device.

5. Check the Battery and Coil 🔋

If your vape has a removable battery, take it out and dry it separately. Also, inspect the coil — if it appears damaged or burnt, it’s safer to replace it before using the device again.

6. Trust Quality from the Start 🚀

While no vape device is truly waterproof, choosing a well-built and high-quality product can make a huge difference when accidents happen.
