E-cigarettes are electronic devices and we need to take into account many different factors in order to make them work properly. It is not only about correctly charging and cleaning the e-cigarette, but also about its storage and transport. How to transport an e-cigarette? How do I store it at home? What to watch out for when looking for a suitable place for our device? All these questions can be found in the text below, so read on!

E-cigarettes in general - how do these devices work?

Electronic cigarettes are an alternative to classic tobacco products. They allow for the delivery of nicotine to the body without exposure to tar and other by-products of the combustion process. There is no real tobacco in e-cigarettes. They use a special mixture of plant nicotine solution, flavoring substances, glycol and glycerin, which we call liquid.

The liquid is heated to such a temperature that the nicotine contained in it changes its state of aggregation to volatile, without burning the rest of the substance. During traditional cigarette smoking, their temperature can reach up to 900 degrees Celsius, while in the case of e-cigarettes it will rather fluctuate around 200 degrees.

Thanks to the lower temperature, the user can deliver nicotine to the body without having to inhale various dangerous by-products of the combustion process. This does not mean, however, that e-cigarettes are a 100% safe alternative for smokers. Rather, they should be seen as a way to potentially reduce the risks associated with traditional smoking.

E-cigarette - how to store it?

E-cigarettes, like all other electronic devices, have their own specificity and require appropriate working conditions. The user should take care of their proper loading or storage, which we will deal with in a bit more detail today.

At the very beginning, you should pay attention to a very important thing, i.e. air humidity. An e-cigarette, like a laptop or telephone, should not be exposed to water. Any exposure to higher humidity can be fatal for our device, so it is definitely worth finding a place where we can be sure that it will avoid contact with water. Even too high air humidity can be harmful. These are quite extreme cases, but it would be better not to tempt fate and not to place the e-cigarette in the bathroom, for example, where the humidity in the air will remain at a high level most of the time.

What else should we remember when we are looking for a suitable place for our e-cigarette? Due to the electronics it contains, the e-cigarette should avoid extreme temperatures. This applies to both frost and heat. The e-cigarette in the cold may lose some of its life, because the extremely low temperature is definitely not conducive to any device with a battery. However, high temperatures are more dangerous, especially when it comes to storing e-cigarettes. We definitely should not expose our e-cigarettes to temperatures higher than room temperature.

When storing e-cigarettes, you should also pay attention to the fact that they should definitely not be within the reach of children or animals. A liquid or e-cigarette cartridge can cause serious damage if swallowed, so let us pay attention to this by placing our electronic cigarette high enough.

Transportation of e-cigarettes

Most e-cigarette users use these devices not only at home. What should we remember when leaving the apartment with an e-cigarette? In this context, it is important to protect it from shocks in your pocket or in the car. This is for two reasons - shocks can be dangerous to the electronics in an e-cigarette and there is a risk of e-liquid leakage.

Of course, cases of liquid spills can be solved by purchasing an e-cigarette with a closed heating system, which will be much safer in this respect. Regardless of what e-cigarette we use, we should pay attention to it - the spilled liquid may leave stains on the fabrics, so it is definitely worth reducing the potential risk to a minimum.

In the context of transporting an e-cigarette, it is also worth considering securing it against falling. For this purpose, the original box that comes with the device will work very well. The right form inside will be able to hold the e-cigarette along the way, and the box itself will be a great way to keep it safe from falling.

You can also think about a dedicated case for our e-cigarette. It may not be a solution that will be able to get the e-cigarette out of every situation, but the right case will definitely help protect the e-cigarette from shocks, moisture and falls.
