bcartervol98 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 I have sort of searched but cannot find anything. As many of you know I am a huge boater and water person. From April till October we spend most Saturday nights and all day Sundays on our boat on the lake. A lot of the time we are in the water for extended periods of time floating and "beating the heat" lol. I am finding this is the only time I still feel like there is something missing with vaping. I am so used to sitting in my floating chair and keeping my analogs on the back of the boat, swim over, light one, and continue drinking and socializing. Doesn't help almost all our friends smoke still. I guess my question is does anyone know of an e-cig battery that is waterproof or designed for such? Is there a case or sleeve or anything else that anyone knows of? It sure would be nice to be able to use mine instead of having to get out of the water and dry off my hands each time I want a pull.

Love2VapeDaily Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 I have wondered the same thing, we have a pool but I do not want to get in and ruin my daily driver our my back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcartervol98 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 (edited) I have spares, and it hasnt been that hot here, the water is still a little cool. I hung my lanyard on the back where I can get to it. I just know in a couple weeks it is going to be that heat where you are out of the water for a few minutes and have to get back in for comfort lol. Or hit the cabin and turn on the AC!

Bebop Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 My first thought is some setup with an automatic battery so you eliminate the button. Then you could possibly find an o-ring that would fit between the batt and cart and that may not proof it but certainly make it resistant from wet hands. Good idea for a product. Get on it b and you could make your first mil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcartervol98 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 I would think one could make an injection molded product with a cap that works like a float or tube does, remove the stopper take a pull and replace the stopper. Problem would be airflow. Hmmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sickvapes Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 My wife was in the pool with her ego battery an vivi nove tank a bee came to xlose she wasn't thinking an she swung at with the hand she had the unit in an it went under water all we did was dry it off chang wick an juice an it still works perfectly fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 If i understand you, something like a thermometer case. The cap would have to cover air holes. And youd never have to touch the e-cig. And if was soft case, you could use a membrane pad like cell phone covers use snd youd get your switch back....hmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcartervol98 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 I am not wondering about accidentally getting it wet, I am talking about floating around in the water without worrying about it getting wet. A case that floats, allows airflow while remaining water and moisture free. I am sure I will eventually drop one in the water, I just want to be able to vape while everyone else is floating around with analogs hanging out of their mouths. There has to be a solution.

Bebop Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 You might find something at the walmart. Travel case for toothbrush kind of thing. Maybe cosmetic department. They have lots of oddball cases.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pope Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 BCarter Might be a little primative, but as a workaround, I would try a quart size ziplock freezer bag. Put it in there with a washcloth and let it float. That should work temporarily. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Thats a great idea, pope as awork around (he's probably already on the boat). Tupperware bowl. Then you could chain it to your float chair, I know, dorkey but hey. Whatever gets you through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xladybugx Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Condom and an o-ring or a rubber band. Wrap it in the condom up to the bottom of the drip tip, then put the o-ring or rubber band over it. That should make it pretty water resistant, although I don't know if it will completely waterproof it. I remember reading about the condom trick with some other electronic device... just don't remember what exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uma Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 JollyRogers made a mod out of a military grade/waterproof case before. It's hard to believe a Modder hasn't made waterproof ones mainstream, for swimmers, hikers, boaters, monsoons seasons, half our lives are spent in the water. I would ask various modders to make one and see what you end up with in designs and prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uma Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 SteelJan makes a water resistant mod here. She would be a great modder to contact. (I didn't watch the video). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jostumidd Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Man, you're right, there's really nothing out there that seems to be designed to be waterproof. I found a comment on another board about a mod called AdapteveR available here, http://www.adaptever.com/, that says there's a video of this being put in a glass of water. But the thread was 3 years old and the website looks iffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcartervol98 Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Bumping to say over the weekend, after my wife dropped her KPT on the boat and didnt remember it, and I got up and ended up digging glass out of my foot, she also jumped into the water with a T3S on top of a 1300MAH Spinner and didnt realize it for about 10 minutes when I said "Hey that looks like a lanyard around your neck". I dried off her battery and put on a new clearo and still works like a charm. lolmoonshine Love2VapeDaily 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcartervol98 Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Sounds like you had a great time! Too bad about the foot.... It wasn't that bad, just a couple small punctures and some intravenous nicotine to wake me up lol. Compared to other injuries I have sustained on our drunken weekends on the lake, it was rather minor lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
