Never been comfortable carrying a clearo in my pocket, my ecig goes in my jacket inside pocket but i'm always checking it to see that it's the right way up (i don't trust them not to leak, flood) and worried about it.. i have an ego lanyard and one of those cheap pleather ego neck sleeve holders coming from china for summer


i have just had a pbusardo like epiphany. I'd kind of avoided cartomisers, because clearos and the like struck me as a superior tech, from looking at the reviews (plus i like the idea of rebuildables) but i had a couple of standard 650 ego batteries and a twist doing nothing since i bought my vamo, which is, for me, too big and heavy even in 18350 mode to be bothered carrying it about, i only wear coats when it's brass monkeys out and i don't want it dropping out of my trouser pockets

bought a smoktech short version 1.5 ohm dual coil mega cartomiser gti epic vxr vapinator of doom (lol) and a shorty drip tip and it's performing like an absolute champ on the little 650 ego batteries.. i filled it with stronger juice because it doesn't hold much and it's just to keep me going for a few hours when i'm out.. wow it's good lol i daren't put it on the vamo i usually vape about 22-24mg and the juice in the smok is 36mg, kinda wish i'd gone for my regular juice now because i keep reaching for it rather than the vamo

once the cone and lanyard for it arrives on the sloooooooowboat, it will be complete, sturdy, and my short trips out vape. At least till the pegasus dripper mentioned earlier in this thread arrives (i ordered two)

At home it's not a problem. My ego VV and Nova set up are at arms length on the table (along with TV remote, mobile and usually a beer :laugh: )
I have to wear a shirt and tie for work, so my ego-t and Nova set up go in my shirt pocket. Luckily my work shirts have a small sewn on tab above the pocket for an i.d. badge to clip onto.
So now the i.d. badge goes on a neck lanyard (doesn't matter if it gets banged about) and 2 pens and my ego fit perfectly through the tab and into the pocket. Perfect solution, e-cig stays vertical and I always have a spare pen :2cool:. Just make sure I don't try and touch my toes and everything stays where it should be.

With my eGo's I am a lanyard user. It stays under my shirt when not in use.

Today is my first day with my VAMO though.. it's huge in the hand and when I carry it in my pocket I feel like any minute someone's gonna say "Hey is that a VAMO in your pocket or are you just happy to see me??" LOL.. Really looking forward to my 18350's getting here so I can go short mode with the VAMO :)

I just got a Vamo as well and was thinking of getting 18350 to go short mode. It seems like it would put the manual button in an awkward position though!

I throw a provari or 2 and a vv reo in my purse. I couldn't count how many time I had to clean juice out of the bottom of it. leaky carto tanks, iclears, vivi's, genesis and juice bottles, things seem to be better now that I started using the icans for juice storage and so far my protanks haven't leaked. my Reo never leaks but it doesn't slide into my back pocket so I still need a tube mod with some sort of tank.

Someone provided the URL for that site to me this evening. Been thinking of different ways to carry my mods on the Harley and that may just be the ticket. :)

One of my Brothers does leatherwork....I have a Zippo case riveted on my cut that I slid my V2 behind (when I used them).....I'm thinking of removing it and having him make a club related leather pouch, slim, that I can slide my current setup into.

Sure is nice vaping while cruising down the road! I used to smoke when we'd get into a town and slow down to 35 or so; get it in before we left and got back up to highway speed.....but now I can vape anytime......

I've been using the vamo in 18350 mode for portable a couple of weeks now, it's much more stealth, but you do still get some odd looks from people

How i do it is instead of clenching it in my fist, i sort of close my fingers around it, gripping the vamo with the top of my palm and fingers, use THE finger as a firing finger, the index finger is then free to use the + and - buttons although i don't do that often
