Shirt Pocket Carrying?

[grim_piper]

Hi, I just got the Vapor4life in the mail today(very impressed), charged up the batteries and have been vaping away with great enjoyment. Quick question:
Is it a no-no to carry the e-cig vertically as I would a pen in a shirt or coat pocket? I know the case is the main carrier, but for around the house, will tipping it up cause leakage?

I would assume it's fine.
Just place it in the vertical position so that the cartomizer is on the bottom and there won't be anything to leak

I carry mine in my shirt pocket at work. Be careful leaning over, I've had mine slip out of my pocket a couple of times. No damage thankfully. Be careful carrying kids though. Managed to push the button while holding my son. Didn't know I had till the atty got really hot, still haven't gotten the burnt taste out of that atty.

I carry my 510 and PCC in my shirt pocket everyday with no problems! Makes it easy to pull it out, take a couple puffs and drop it right back in

And I carry my 510 battery side down with no leaks...

I regularly carry in a shirt pocket. For me, cart side down has worked the best.

You could get one of leaford's lanyards. They have special holes for the manual button (if you have one), tip, etc. It's been getting great reviews.

Cart side down and Bob's your uncle. I did have a leak problem until I figured that out (Brainiac that I am!).

Also, it's easy to modify a lanyard. I grabbed one my wife had laying around. Now I wear it around my neck and let it rest in my pocket. Easy-peasy.

Battery side down.. and I use a pocket clip (like a pen)... Never a problem.

P.S. Since you are using a 2-piece, I'd be even less concerned about "which end is up".

I carry my eGo in my shirt poocket. My Chuck? Not so much..............

My wife carries hers in her bra. She became acutely aware of when her L2 battery stuck on....!

I carry my box mod around in my shirt pocket no problem with leaks. Umm... unless I try to fit 20 drops of fluid in the 12-14 drop capacity cart.

I carry mine in my shirt pocket all of the time. Never had a leak.

A pen clip works,so it doesnt fall out.They were just discussing this in the v4l subforum,since you have v4l you should check it out.!!

Same here. I put it battery side down and never had a leak. the PCC did fall out once though. Thank goodness it is built very well

I use my Leaford Lanyard every day. It's real handy - I can stuff it inside my shirt if I don't want it hanging down, never have to worry about losing my PV or having it fall out of my pocket.
