Has anyone brought their ecigs to the beach?

I don't think you would have nay problems. Just keep it all in one piece and have something air tight to seal it in while your not using it.

I would think that taking a few puffs and then putting it in a zip lock bad should be OK. I wouldn't leave it sitting out when not in use, as long as you keep it dry you should be good.

Im worried about the sand getting into the battery when I change em. I guess I could use my passthru.

I took my 901 to Sanibel Island and Ft. Myers beaches and had no problems with sand or anything else. Just be sure and take plenty of batteries along. I keep mine in a plastic case for added protection. I did not leave any components in direct sunlight either. Good luck, but you should not have any problems.

Just one caution: Wind blowing over the e-cig can trigger the battery, activating the atomizer. Hold your e-cig in front of your mouth and blow over it -- the tip, the mouthpiece. Does the light come on? If so, leave it home. Winds are relentless on beaches.
If yours doesn't trigger from the pressure differences caused by wind, by all means use it.
Personal note: Mine triggers. I can't even take it while walking my dog!

I take mine to the beach at least 2 times a week and have no issues at all. Mine is a penstyle and I have not noticed the wind firing it, but then again I hold it with the battery end facing down to the sand. I will have to watch for that once this cold snap gets out of here and I head back down. Enjoy your trip to the beach!!

Hmm... I guess that rules out vaping while on the bike, eh?
I'm new to all this and just ordered a 901. I was thinking that it would be nice to not have the wind smoke more of my cig than I did, but it sounds like this will be a problem with e-cigs too.

Depending on what ecig you have - go for a manual switch if it's available for your model.
No more worries about wind (or noise) activating your auto battery.

Its my understanding that only 401s, and certain 901s are actually triggered by wind, no? I've got a couple true 901s, and I dont think a hurricane would trigger the atomizer on it... Havnt had any problems with it in the car with windows down or walking around.
