Just a concept .. how about a modded hand-cranked flashlight / PV combo? It would not only vape but give you some exercise at the same time 
Hand-crank PV ???

Hehe I have looked into it myself. Those hand crank flashlights specifically, but they only output a few hundred mA. ALSO the same problem with the "shake-up" flashlight.
Some of them have a built-in li-ion 3.7v batt and you charge the batt with the crank. You can crank for a couple minutes, then vape a while (theoretically) ???
Here's a link to a link.

Yes but in case of hurricanes and other long term power failures this could be a great idea....I'd likeky be caught breaking into someone's place just to loot their power source.
The only ones I have seen just had a small CR2016 coin-type battery. which to me seemed inefficient for the project.
In a blackout or around the campfire, just grab your crank and go for it. LOL
LOL!!! I think more than a few of us would be looting power in case of a long term power failure!
I saw a tv once with a hand cranked generator built into it. It didn't seem very heavy,
so I don't know what kind of batts it had in it.
The guy said he got about equal time between cranking and being able to watch tv.
I would imagine the screen required a lot more draw than a flashlight, so the genny
from something like that would prolly quickly charge a 3.6v batt.
Of course, the last time I saw one it was about $120.
I guess it would depend on how often you thought you would need that kind of back up.
Maybe you could find the genny by itself on some kinda place like Alibaba.

A bicycle light generator might be an idea. Vape while peddling your a** around town.

Now that would really make vaping healthier than smoking.
