Electronic cigarette devices (especially the main unit, atomizer, battery, etc.) are prone to damage to the casing, loosening of internal circuits, deformation of the atomizer core or breakage of the glass chamber due to collisions during storage, which directly affects the user experience and may even cause safety hazards. The following provides a systematic anti-collision solution from three aspects: physical protection, selection of storage tools, and environmental control. By combining scientific principles with practical skills, it ensures the safe storage of electronic cigarettes.
1. Separate packaging and isolation
Shockproof lining
Wrap the equipment with soft materials such as EVA foam, sponge, and silicone sleeves to reduce the transmission of impact force.
Similar to a camera lens storage box, the device is fixed by custom grooves to prevent shaking.
Separate storage
The atomizer should be stored separately from the main unit to prevent the glass compartment or metal parts from squeezing each other.
Key component: The glass chamber of the atomizer needs to be wrapped separately to prevent breakage.
2. Fixed and limited
Velcro straps
Use Velcro to fix the equipment in the storage box to prevent the drawer from sliding when opening and closing.
Applicable scenarios: Drawer-style storage or vehicle-mounted storage.
Elastic straps
Fix the device in the storage box with silicone straps or elastic ropes, which is suitable for irregularly shaped main units.
3. Anti-drop design
Thickened shell
Put a silicone protective case or TPU soft shell on the equipment to enhance its anti-drop performance.
Analogy: The principle of the anti-drop case for mobile phones is to absorb the impact force through cushioning materials.
Lanyard fixation
Install a lanyard on the main unit and hang it on a fixed hook when storing to prevent accidental drops.
Hard storage box
Material:
Give priority to hard materials such as ABS plastic and aluminum alloy, as their impact resistance is superior to that of soft storage bags.
Structure
It is equipped with adjustable partitions or preformed grooves to ensure a tight fit of the equipment.
Recommended product: Pelican 1010 waterproof and shockproof Box (Built-in sponge customizable).
2. Shockproof storage bag
Multi-layer protection
The outer layer is wear-resistant nylon, the middle layer is high-density sponge, and the inner layer is soft flannel, providing triple cushioning.
Portability
It is suitable for carrying around, but be careful not to store it together with hard objects such as keys and coins.
3. Drawer separation system
Modular design
Use acrylic partition boards or wooden grids to divide the drawers into independent areas, with one piece of equipment stored in each area.
Anti-slip treatment:
Stick anti-slip pads at the bottom of the partition board to prevent the equipment from sliding and colliding.
Avoid high-risk areas
Prohibited storage locations:
The vehicle's center console (prone to flying out during sudden braking), the side pockets of the backpack (shaking during driving), and the edge of the desktop (prone to falling off).
Recommended location:
The middle layer of the drawer (far from the edge of the drawer), the inner bag of the backpack, and the fixed storage box on the bedside table.
2. Vertical and horizontal placement
Host:
Prioritize vertical placement to reduce the force on the screen or buttons.
Atomizer
The glass compartment should be placed horizontally upwards to prevent the glass from breaking due to pressure when placed sideways.
Battery
Place the independent battery box flat to prevent short circuits or deformation of the positive and negative terminals due to squeezing.
3. Fill the buffer space
Filling material selection:
Fill the gaps in the storage box with shredded paper strips, bubble wrap, cotton, etc. to prevent the equipment from shaking.
Example:
After placing the equipment in the storage box, fill the remaining space with shredded paper strips to ensure that the equipment cannot be moved.
Mark vulnerable parts:
Stick anti-collision stickers on the glass chamber of the atomizer or the main unit screen to remind you to handle with care.
Regular inspection
Check the inner lining of the storage box for damage every month and replace the filler in time.
Avoid mixed storage:
Equipment of different shapes or weights should be stored separately to prevent mutual squeezing.
Child protection
Use a lockable storage box to prevent the device from dropping or getting damaged due to children's accidental operation.
1. Basic anti-collision solution
Tools: Silicone protective case (main unit) + acrylic partition board (drawer) + shredded paper strips for filling.
Applicable scenarios: Daily household use, low cost, and simple operation.
2. Advanced anti-collision solution
Tools: Pelican 1010 shockproof case + custom sponge lining + Velcro straps.
Applicable scenarios: Travel, outdoor activities, with strong impact resistance.
3. Minimalist anti-collision solution
Tools: Shockproof storage bag + elastic straps + independent wrapping of the equipment.
Applicable scenarios: Short-term travel, portability takes priority.
The core of e-cigarette anti-collision lies in isolation, fixation and buffering, which can be achieved through the following measures:
Physical protection: Independent packaging, fixed limit, anti-drop design.
Storage tools: hard storage boxes, shock-absorbing bags, drawer separation systems.
Environmental control: Avoid high-risk areas, arrange reasonably, and fill buffer Spaces.
Direct recommendation plan:
Daily household use: Silicone protective case + drawer partition + filled with shredded paper strips.
Travel carry: Pelican 1010 shockproof case + custom sponge lining.
Vehicle-mounted storage: anti-slip pad + main unit lanyard + hard storage box.
Through scientific storage, the risk of damage to e-cigarettes caused by collisions can be significantly reduced, and the service life of the equipment can be prolonged.
