correct me if i'm wrong, but i think the idea is, it is not just e-cig stuff that needs carrying ;) i don't carry girly crap in my purse, i carry a wallet, my meds, my darts, and my ecig stuff :)

i can see how a guy would need something to house similiar items....I'M ALL FOR THE MAN PURSE! maybe then my hubby will quit asking me to put his crap in mine!

They do (or did at one time) make bags for men.
My DH carries one when he goes shooting at targets, and if you think batteries weigh a lot, try totting around a bunch of bullets!
His is made out of canvas too and washes up well.

Tired of guessing..:) What does DH mean? Please tell me its not ...and I apologize if I am breaking a rule...if so I will delete. But always seeing DH is killing me not knowing.

I'm afraid I don't understand the reasoning behind all this.

If I'm going to be out all day, I take an extra battery or two and a few cartos. It all fits nicely in a repurposed pocket protector. If I found a reasonably priced case that would hold and recharge 808XLs, I'd probably go with that, but again, those fit in a shirt pocket.

The idea of carrying around a month's worth of supplies, especially bottles of juice, is beyond me.

One must be prepared at all times for the zombie apocalypse.

I carry an extra cartomizer, a 6ml bottle of all-day vape liquid and my PV (18650 VV botmod w/ DCT MAP tank). Batteries last me a day and a half. 6ml is about the same (day and a half). And the extra carto is just in case. I take my PV out of my pocket when I get in the car (on the rare accasion that it's not in my hand already lol).

Um, nice purse, Nancy! Get used to hearing that, bro. It's nice that the ladies all support your decision! You'll fit in nice with them as y'all discuss such topics as pros and cons of zippered side pockets and the new Donna Karan at Macy's!

Just being the stereotypical chauvanist (sp?). I'd bust ur bawlz in real life, too, bud. It's how I roll. It's all with love (no homo) tho! Cheers!

I don't know if this is helpful or detrimental...but I have never thought negatively about a man carrying a tote, messenger bag, or pouch. I honestly look at guys with big bumps in their pants and immediately roll my eyes. Not only does it look silly, but it seems so impractical to load one's pockets up and cause discomfort. :)

Yeah it's not just for vaping stuff, it's for everything. Think about all the crap you might stuff in your pockets.

For me it's:
iPhone
Wallet
Riva
Bottle of juice or two
Extra Riva batteries (because mine might die and some people like to borrow)
Extra cart or atty (just in case)
Inhaler
Cash
Bottle of meds
Hydrocortisone cream (because I have eczema)
Chapstick (because in the winter my lips dry out in the cold and also due to vaping)

Using a bag things have gotten simpler. I can just grab it and go. I don't have to keep transferring things into and out of my pockets every day. Things don't accidentally go through the wash. Plus I can carry extra stuff that might be handy like:

Extra SD cards (when I bring my DSLR with me)
Pen/pencil/sharpie
Ibuprofen
Gum
whatever

It actually does make a lot more sense.

Actually on accident around a toilet can ruin your day. I always have a case about the size of a glasses case with two eGo bats 2 6 ml bottles of juice a couple extra atomizers, a drip tip, an eGo-t atomizer, and a cartomizer. On of the bats is a passthrough. I keep the cord for that in there too. :)

Gotta love a man that can rock a purse! LOL
So I'm sick of carrying around all my crap in my jean pockets. As a vaper this is even more cumbersome because of all the batteries, juice and parts we also carry with us. The biggest pain is trying to dig your e-cig or your phone out of your jeans pocket while driving. I decided to buy a purse.

I found this one at Walmart. It was $8.88 and comes in either camo green or tan. It's small, made of canvas and has a long strap on it where you wear it sling style over your neck and under your arm. Big enough to carry my wallet, iPhone, multiple riva/ego batteries, juice, my inhaler and some prescription drugs. I plan to pick up an Omega or Silver Bullet pretty soon and it would be big enough to carry one of those as well. Just figured I would pass it along for anyone in need of a small bag for this kind of stuff.

Picture attached.

Personally, we dudes carry a lot of crap these days yet we still keep telling ourselves it's not cool to carry a purse/bag with us. It's the 21st century. We've got to stop being stupid and making things hard on ourselves.

I've never heard anyone say anything like that to me. I break many norms. Most people I hang out with a really cool. As far as I'm concerned, it's the people who live within a limited world view that never grow in life. Those are the same people who won't try e-cigs because it looks funny. Those people don't really matter. I have no respect for them to begin with. They're certainly never going to change the world.

I'll admit, now that I have the provari, my small ego case isn't cutting it anymore. Batts, boges with 8 different flavors, and bottles of juice for the long days. I'm about to break out the old fanny pack again. I think I may look for a new cool one thats water proof in case I get caught in the ole' Florida thunderstorm. It's is nice to put everything in it and have empty pockets!! Think I'll look for one with lots of compartments so no scratching goes on amongst things...LOL! Great thread!!
