Let's talk hot weather vaping

[p-doze]

I've only been a vaper during the cold months so far and was wondering if any of the more experienced folks, or people that live in places where it's hot year round, have any good tips or warnings for when it gets hot?

curious about keeping mods, batteries and juice in the car.

grabbing a stainless steel mod that has been sitting in a 100 degree car all day is the obvious no-no...

Last summer I learned that CE3 bottom coils (aka Phoenix) leak when they get hot. I think it's because the air inside them expands and pushes the liquid out. This would probably apply to anything you have to syringe fill upside-down.

For my trips to the beach, when I was leaving stuff in my car in the heat, I put an ice pack inside of a plastic bag, wrapped it in a dishtowel and put that and my vaping supplies inside of a plastic food storage container with a lid.

IMO don't leave the stuff in the car

Don't leave batteries in the car. Also, have a plan on how to carry your stuff. It's easy if you're wearing a coat, but if you're wearing a T-shirt and jeans, not so much.

When did they go out of style?? I did not receive the memo.

Vapers wear cargo shorts.

The extra large mods are pretty big to just stuff in your pants pocket. (Is that an ecig or are you happy to see me).

A 7 inch tube mod in your pants is both uncomfortable and false advertising to quote Dino, the designer of the Billet Box...

I keep a 5/8" x 6.5" inch tube mod in my pants pocket all day and don't even notice it's there. Length isn't everything.

As everyone says, don't let the PV lay out in the sun. Heat can cause a catastrophic battery failure.

We get lots of days in the 90's and low 100's. You will notice that cartos run noticeably hotter in warm weather and can get really hot to the touch while chain vaping. I use cartos without a tank. My APV has a removable cone that I'm about to remove for the summer. The cones retain heat around the carto. I like the cone during cooler weather as it keeps the carto warmer during use.

I already carry my case in my purse. Guess it's time for the guys to get satchels

Fanny packs are silly looking these days so I think I'm gonna start a fisherman's vest trend.

Wait, cargo shorts went out of style?

 

[p-doze]

cargo shorts are out of style AND they cause cancer?!
dang. where have i been?

 

[Kemosabe]

...getting back on topic, last summer i was using cartos almost exclusively. i noticed that the hot weather would cause them to leak. leaking out the battery connector part and also into the drip tip. yuck!

i like that fishermans vest idea posted earlier! how about one of these badboys?

Laptop bags have made it acceptable for a man to carry a purse. It's a trend I like quite a bit.

Cargo shorts are what I use or anything with a ton of pockets,and take the gripper so if I breaks oh well I won it.
