Best APV to take with you

Hi,

What APV would you recommend that fits nicely in your pant pockets and also is a good performer? I currently have a VTR, which obviously is too heavy for me to take it around with me. I do have a itaste VV which is good for that purpose but it seems filmsy and I want something different.

Also, is it safe to carry an APV with a 18650 battery in your pocket?

Thanks

18650 AND 6ml of juice are both safe in your pocket. Join the FUN

The trouser pocket thing is a minefield imho. Maybe it's just me and trousers but if I try this drip tips fall off, parts unscrew (beauty rings, ego cones), and liquid leaks. You do not want liquid leaking in your trousers unless you are trying to attract horrified glances. I try to wear a shirt with a breast pocket which will happily hold an MVP and 30ml of liquid. Alternatively I wear a jacket, or if none of the above then all stuff goes in a daybag in a pouch.. Trousers became a vaping no-no for me when I put a battery in my trouser pocket and had forgotten that there was loose change in there. The battery heated up and had to be discarded - luckily nothing worse.

I'm probably too uncool to carry devices in my trousers. If I carried one in my pants in the UK it would be in my underwear - which doesn't really bear thinking about.

I'm a shirt pocket vaper as well, and if I'm out and about, it's usually either a Tesla, SVD, Kmax or Vamo v5 - AND a backup of either a 1300 Spinner or VV3. Don't leave home without a backup.

But if you must carry in a pants pocket, other than the loosening potential mentioned above, just make sure you turn the device off before pocketing.

Is that a mod in your pocket? Or are you just happy to see me?... ;P
