Who goes out and about with their RBA?

[sawlight]

Been playing with my AGA-T, but I don't trust it out and about yet, it's still too finicky for me. I thought the Trivveca (Rainbow) dripper might have been the ticket, but on a trip to the convenience store last night, and the resulting dry hit and juice stain on my pocket T proved that theory a failure!
So, throw it in your pocket, go to your buddies house, go hang at the bar, run around town etc., who takes one, which one and how well does it work for you?

i take my provari n cobra everywhere. its my main; and really only setup. goes to work with me at an asphalt plant up 30 ft tanks; and basically everywhere i go. rides in my shirt pocket like a boss and vapes reliably all day. all i carry is one extra battery for those unforeseen long days.

i carry all 3 of my mods out all the time. but i am not really out and about. at work and out to dinner on occasions yes. if it were 20 years ago i would probably get a holder, like a flashlight holder and strap it to my belt.

i worry about leaks with my dud and chobra but last night i must have knocked my pv over while sleeping and it was horizontal on the table, no leaks.
i will bring it out and about if i can keep it upright. but too much pocket action and im uncomfortable. a holder would help but i dont like the looks of most of them.

I take my RBAs out and about with me all the time, on either a Provari Mini or a Vamo.. in the truck, out on the golf course, etc. I only carry a spare battery, depending how long I figure I'm going to be out.

 

[Thrasher]

i do. my 3 ml cobra on a provari with a 18650cap, all day every day even at work.

a holder would help but i dont like the looks of most of them.

checked out anything here?

Sounds like I need to find something besides the AGA-T! Guess I'll start looking at Cobra and DID clones again.

 

[Thrasher]

for out on town kind of stuff i have a cheapo maglight case with a belt clip so im not stuck holding or trying to keep it upright.
i want to get a couple cases from serenty maybe the one with the d-ring for a wrist strap or a nice one with the belt clip

I have a homemade VW (DNA 12) aluminum bottomfed box with my A7 RBA on top. I carry an extra 18650, 6ml of nicquid, a 2ohm DC atty, about enough Nextel ceramic wick for 2 wicks and approximately the same amount of pre-burned nichrome wire. I generally have my Leatherman Blast on my belt, too. I can swap a wick/coil on the go if neccessary, but luckily, my set-up hasn't failed me. Now that I think about it, I could probably rig up a complet e MacGuyver PV with my extra stuffs.

 

[sawlight]

Yeah! OK! That's kind of what I'm trying to get away from! Been there, done that, PCC, four batts, eight spare carto's etc, etc.... I want to go out with a PV, maybe a spare bottle of juice, and a spare battery! I'm trying to get off the carto tanks, but for now the ease of use is hard to beat with them.

 

[anavidfan]

when I go out I used to only take a good cartomizer tank, cant beat it for convenience, but now I take my Odysseus everywhere and a spare battery. No leaks, I put it in my bag, or pocket, lay it down on the car seat or lap. No leaks, if I know im not going to use it for a long time, and know it will be on its side, I just close the juice control all the way. This goes for the Penelope, odysseus and the terminator/ ody clone.

So how about the ZAP? I'm on the fence right now, buy more cheap RBA's and hope I find something I'm happy with, or bite the bullet and save up for what I know I really want, the ZAP and be done!
My big issue's with the AGA, it doesn't fit the ProV, makes my mini REALLY heavy, top heavy, and if I put it in my pocket and it tilts when full, bleeds like a stuck pig!

 

[DirtieJoe]

had that issue kinda on my mini too once i started using the cobra; titanium is pretty but kinda hefty lil bugger too.
i got the extension cap for the larger batteries for the mini, made it about an inch longer; but balances the heft of the cobra much nicer. still fits in the shirt pocket, with a lil of the drip tip sticking out. but due to extra length it cant go vertical on me. the cobra dual o rings seal well but being a genni style it will leak if left vertical for long periods, but thats due to the air hole. I'll even slide it in my back pants pocket from time to time; and cargo / carpenter style jeans with side leg pockets are awesome, it fits right in with no worries. I've never seen the need for a holder/ holster for it since its so pocket-able.

I got a REO grand to take to work & out etc. but I'm liking the iHybrid standard for out & about lately, looking for an inconspicuous flashlight belt holder for it currently, to keep it upright mainly. sometimes I take em both.

My Provari/ZAP used to be my at home only device. I have only recently started taking it out and about. I guess I'll probably just start using it everywhere unless the situation calls for something less conspicuous.

If your looking for a cheap belt holster, check out Vaporheads.net and look for the ZMAX belt holster they have. Haven't tried it yet but at $8 or $9 it seemed like an OK idea. I had been using a cheap Bianchi Accumold expandable baton belt holster for mine.

I take out either my VV Reo Grand with the Reo's RBA (for 8 hours or more away from home) or the kicked Reo Grand with a Chalice RBA ( for shorter trips away from home) both will not leak unless they are upside down for extended periods of time. I have pre-ordered a Billet Box which I will probably use in the future for when I'm away from home.
