Why is my vape charging from my bellybutton?

94 replies

Name changed incase I make the bad decision to post video of proof!!

I'm lying on bed and, as you do, rested my vape in my belly button! And it started charging/lighting up.

In the interest of science I have tried it on other parts of body, including the copious belly fat and it does nothing.

Why is my belly button a charging point?

And can I post the video?

Does no-one care I'm a miracle of science?

I'd settle for an explanation of why it does it, and other useful things one can charge from one's belly button.

Oooh I’m interested 👀

TheLightSideOfTheMoon · 05/05/2024 14:51

I’d personally be shitting myself it was about to explode.

Electric personality??

Finlesswonder · 05/05/2024 14:52

Pics or it didn't happen

TheIceQween · 05/05/2024 14:52

This is absolute madness and something I’ve gotta see girl!

parttimeweddingplanner · 05/05/2024 14:52

Curious!! I think you'd have to upload the video somewhere else (Youtube?!) and share a link.

Lemonandlimez · 05/05/2024 14:52

Woah! I have to try this now!

:o

But I have now done this 11 million times and it's only when in belly button. I've squidged it into belly fat and nothing.

Think about it. Your belly button is where all the power goes into you as a baby from your mum.

It's the human equivalent of a mobile phone charging port, and can work in reverse.

I know someone who can run a toaster, but it takes about 3 hours to make a decent slice of toast.

OliviaFlaversham · 05/05/2024 14:55

This is wild 😂

Hermittrismegistus · 05/05/2024 14:55

Try other things like a lightbulb in your belly button

pinkwaterbottle9 · 05/05/2024 14:56

Mine doesn't. Just tried 😭

VapeMiracle · 05/05/2024 14:56

Yes, now realised can't upload video on here and can't picture it in stills. Will try though
I have so much to do today, that has been scuppered by lying on bed poking vape into belly button. And now telling you all about it.

Are you for real?

Finlesswonder · 05/05/2024 15:00

OP stop messing around, get the video on YouTube pronto

VapeMiracle · 05/05/2024 15:02

This is why I've name changed 🤣

Forgive grotty fingernails and even grottier trackies. I assure you I'm usually quite well presented but it's b/h Sunday and I've been cleaning the carpets. Such Fun.

But you can see the light on? This only happens when inhaling or charging.

Video is much better. Might sell it/myself to Elon.

I can’t see a light on. Does your toaster have a bigger light that might show better in a photo. Oo fairy lights- do fairy lights

GlitteryFarts · 05/05/2024 15:16

There is a very simple scientific explanation for this.

You were abducted by aliens and an implant has been put in ur bellybutton.

If it happens when you inhale or charge, how do you know that you're not breathing through your bellybutton?

CentrifugalBumblePuppy · 05/05/2024 15:21

Maybe the salts in belly button sweat are acting as a conductor & completing the circuit, hence why the charge light is on?

I’d stop doing it in case the phenomenon is causing the battery to short circuit, lithium burns are brutal.

And it’s hard to put fires from the fuckers out lol. Put water on them, and the resulting purple flames, though rather lovely, tend to go with a bit of a kaboom.

Would rather put a dampener on your Sunday afternoon!

This hypothesis may be complete bollocks (I have ‘electronics engineer’ on my marriage certificate, although started off life training as a drama teacher rofl).

That was my thought too. Or your belly button is creating suction or pressure, even if it isn't at the mouthpiece the device might still sense the pressure change.
