don't get me wrong, I LOVE MINE!!! :) it is used daily... just get a lil jealous when I see one that is still flawless... it also helped me realize, when I get the white to be more careful. Like, not throwing it in my purse with keys, lol
I'd be happy enough with a purse.:D

Maybe a piece of screen protector for cell phones and a silicone sleeve? Wonder why they don't make sleeves for tanks? Jwraps is another idea, but the tank is still exposed.

Well after however long I've had this thing, least a couple months, I've realized its downfalls. The 510, everyone knows about that so I'll skip over that.
But my screen is scratched to ****. Depending on the lighting it can be hard to read. That is BS. Plastic display cover gets scratched very easily. But then again, I guess it was cheap, but still. Irritating.

You can also get silicone tubing at lowes and they will cut it to size, almost like the vape bands but a little more low key.

I wonder if rubbing compound, or that stuff they use to fix headlights, would smooth that out again...

Oh yea! thats a good idea. Although I'm not gonna waste the time, as it wont last long. I bet a sleeve would stop it. Kanger should've went the route of P4Y and the D2, Inset the screen.

Polycarbonate instead of acrylic/cheapo plastic probably would've helped too. But yeah, I'd say smooth it out and get a sleeve, or those screen protector things for cell phones.

I saw those on Sweet Vapes also. How do you like them so far? Any issues with the silicone cover and the buttons?

Love it! The only issue I've had some far is that it periodically slides up and covers the air holes on my tanks. Other than that, it's been fantastic.

I got the white one, since it gets really toasty here in the summer as well.

Mine is white, I am an Industrial Maintenance Mechanic (burn,weld,repair,modify,install,re-wire,replace electric motors,ETC,ETC,ETC)
This thing is in and out of my pocket a lot. I try not to manhandle it too much. It does have a little ware on the bottom edges, but not really bad at all. (no chips....yet)
The only issue I have is the dust under the lens (guessing from blowing myself off with an air hose) ?

So, I'm thinking a wrap or a sleeve.....soon. Sometimes things get slippery :unsure:
