Summer is a wonderful time to go outside and enjoy the warm weather. We all love to get out and about, often taking day trips, enjoying barbecues with family and friends or just relaxing in the garden. With that in mind, here are some simple tips on keeping your E-Cig working well during the hot weather.
Top Tips on Caring for Your E-Cig in Summer
Keep your device cool – Avoid leaving your E-Cig in direct sun, or any places that become especially warm such as a hot car.
Keep your e-liquid cool – Make sure to store your E-Liquid in a cool, dry place. Don’t be tempted to store it in the fridge, as cooler temperatures will affect the flavour and effectiveness of your liquid.
Keep your e-cig charged – Warmer weather will run your battery life down faster. It may also mean thunderstorms and power outages. So keeping your E-Cig and backup battery charged is a good idea.
Don’t charge your E-Cig in a hot car.
Don’t leave batteries in direct sunlight – Make sure batteries are kept in a cool and dry place and don’t be tempted to carry them around loose in your bag as they could easily overheat.
Replace older batteries for summer – Batteries have a life cycle of around 120 – 150 recharge uses.
Keep batteries in a case at all times when not in use.
Don’t get your device wet.
Be Careful when travelling – Sand and dirt can damage your E-Cig. Use a carry case when out and about to protect your device.
Look after your coils – The hot weather can cause the sugar in your e-liquid to caramelise and damage the coils in your E-Cig. Clean them regularly and have replacements just in case.
Watch for leakage in the tank – If your tank gets too hot, it can lead to the seals breaking down and e-liquid leaking out. If your tank is quite old, it may be time to get a new one.
