Earthling789 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Welcome to V|T! I'm not sure what your question is... When I stick a tank in my storage rack, it is usually full, and ready to vape when I want it. Sure, there are sometimes 1/2-full tanks in the rack, but that is not an issue for storage, as I'll vape it empty eventually. Now, it is not a good idea to store one that is less than 1/3 full, as it may leak over time. If you're storing a tank long-term, it is best to have it full or completely empty (clean and ready for juice). Traveling with 1/2 full bottles... never an issue... the bottle seals with the lid and is no different than a full one... it shouldn't leak or cause any problems, and it will not affect the juice in the least, other than allowing a little more Oxygen to it, which will actually (usually) make the flavor BETTER, as the juice ages and flavors are more pronounced as they Oxygenate. This is not always true, but I've yet to find a juice that didn't taste better as it aged/Oxygenated. If you're looking for a good way to travel with your devices and juice, there are hundreds of vape-cases out there in the market... some only hold one device, some hold dozens, with special pockets or straps to hold multiple bottles of juice or tanks.

eCloudMaker Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 - traveling with all my new stuff (but still don't have a good answer for 1/2 full tanks) .... this appears to be working for the rest of my new crap I am a pouch/bag/case saver - just because I don't use the insides - doesn't mean its time to throw the really kewl zippered case away.... right ? :-) For new vaping crap - I am using an age old zipper/nylon cassette carrying case (one cassette wide and probably a dozen cassettes long) - removed the molded plastic cassette holding tray and bought some 10 & 15 compartments 'adjustable' transparent jewelry/bead/hobby case with hinged lid and fairly secure clasp - about $1.00 of ebay. .... from I'm beginning to notice; it is easy to have lots of vaping stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earthling789 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Those "lipstick" and makeup stands work well, but so does a hunk of wood with a few 6-8mm holes drilled into it so the 510 connections will set inside the hole, and the base of the tank will rest comfortably on the wood. There are fancier things to store your tanks on while at home, but I find a few well-placed holes in a piece of scrap lumber (can fancy it up if you want with beveled edges and stain) works wonderfully Here is one I made recently while watching TV one evening... scrap wood, routed an edge on it, sanded, stained, and drilled 16, 8mm holes, 1" apart, and 1/2" from the outer edge (Wood is 5" x 5" on top - inside the bevel). Additional holes are drilled evenly between the main 16, to allow for mini tanks or oversize tanks and different configurations: It doesn't stop them from getting knocked over, but it does make them more stable and they don't fall over if someone walks heavily through the house!

Compenstine Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I use these: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Acrylic make-up organizer with drawers work well for me. Also, a wall mounted nail polish holder works wonders for organizing juice bottles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compenstine Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 LOL At least it wouldn't freeze, may get a little thick though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said,, Dad this is NOT the stone age, its the TECHNICAL CORRECTNESS age,, ie; its not using scraps, ITS repurposing good material into something useable & its only scrap when it can be used for no other purpose... then he jump on his cell phone & hadda txt his 2 older brothers, that he stumped the Old RedNeck & my phone shut down from the massive amount of hahaha txts..
