CBD Vapes vs. Summer Splash: What to Do if Your Disposable or Cartridge Gets Wet

CBD Vapes vs. Summer Splash: What to Do if Your Disposable or Cartridge Gets Wet

Katrina Fritz |

Summer brings pool parties, beach days, and unexpected splashes—great for fun, not so great for electronics. If your CBD disposable vape or cartridge took a dive, here's what you should do, and what waterproof vape options are available for your next sunny outing.

What Happens When a Vape Gets Wet?

Most CBD disposables and vape pens aren’t waterproof. When they come in contact with water, especially saltwater or chlorinated pool water, the internal electronics can short-circuit. Even a quick dip can lead to damage or safety hazards.

Step-by-Step: What to Do If Your CBD Vape Gets Wet

  1. Turn it off immediately (if possible).
    If it has a power button, turn it off. Don’t try to hit it again—this could cause a short or injury.

  2. Dry it thoroughly.
    Gently shake out excess water. Use a soft cloth to dab the exterior dry. Do not use heat (like a hairdryer), which can damage components or batteries.

  3. Let it air dry for at least 24–48 hours.
    Place it in a dry, cool place. Some users try the rice method (placing the device in a container of uncooked rice), though it’s not foolproof.

  4. Inspect before use.
    Check for signs of corrosion, leakage, or odd smells. If you’re unsure whether it’s safe, don’t risk it.

  5. Dispose of damaged vapes safely.
    If it won’t power on or behaves abnormally, it’s best to discard it at a proper e-waste facility.

Are There Waterproof Vape Devices?

Yes! As vaping becomes more popular for on-the-go lifestyles, some brands are stepping up with water-resistant or waterproof options. Here are a few worth considering:

  • GeekVape Aegis Series
    These are among the most rugged on the market—shockproof, dustproof, and water-resistant (IP67 rated). Not CBD-specific, but compatible with many 510-thread cartridges.

  • SMOK Morph Pod-80 or RPM Series
    Offers splash resistance and durable design for outdoor use.

  • Vessel Compass Series
    Stylish and compact with some models boasting water-resistance ideal for casual use.

Always check the specific IP rating (like IP67 or IP68) to understand the level of protection.

Final Thoughts

Summer and CBD go hand-in-hand—but water and electronics don’t mix. Keep your gear safe, and if you're an active user, consider investing in a waterproof or rugged vape device for worry-free fun.
