I am / of course/ a new member. I work on barges and tank them with dangerous chemicals. Another tankerman told me about these things and I went and got one ordered from ebay cause i dont know where to buy them where i live . I do not know how good or bad it is but it is a start.It only costed me about $20.00 and am still waiting for it to come in.
I hope to get and give good info here and am looking foward to chatting with yall.
By the way I can not spell too good so please don't laph too much.

Hi Tankerman & welcome!
A tip you might find helpful: The automatic batteries can be very sensitive. I find my automatic batteries are triggered by the wind when I'm out on our boat, even when we are achored if there is a slight breeze....You may want to see if you can get some manual batteries for your model if you plan on using it outdoors a lot.

You must have an EVO. They're sound sensitive. Most batteries have a vacuum switch that only activates when you suck on them. You should look into a few for the boat.

Howdy tankerman;

Welcome to our little slice of heaven. You're gonna love that e-cig. While it's on the way to you, stroll around the forum, and pick up on information to keep that e-cig running like a new car. Don't be shy. If you have questions, ask, and spelling dosen't count here, so don't worry.

Cheers;
jd

Nope, actually the newer batteries I've purchased for my 901 are super sensitive...and not all from the same supplier. I also had the same issue with my VX2, but that was my fault...can't use it zipping around wide open in the boat either. :) Now the 510 with manual batteries is my outdoor activities go to model.

Hello my name is Louise and I am from Kenner, Louisiana!
I have been vaping for 5 weeks and addicted to this forum for four weeks. Thank you for providing so much information.

I purchased a bead organizer plastic box from a craft store (Michaels's). The large section measures 4.5" x 1.75". The other 16 sections measure 2.25" x 1.75". The whole case is approx. 7" x 10.5" with a plastic lid. The larger section is good for storing the batteries and the smaller sections are great for storing carts and attomizers. I have a 510, a 901 and super RN4081...one case for each e-cig model. They stack well and keep my e-cigs organized.

Hope this helps.

Welcome to e smoking! I too am in Kenner, LA (I work here). Our local guy is in Metairie and always keeps a good stock of juice. He runs a site called Truesmoker. There are lots of great vendors on this forum who are 100% helpful. I would never had been able to quit analogs without them, but I am telling you about the local guy cause nothing is worse than running out of juice. There are a bunch of us vaping in the New Orleans area...
