Rejoice! The start of Summer has finally arrived!

That means it’s time to break out your favorite pair of sunglasses, plan some fun activities, and figure out which vape is going to accompany you on all of your sun lit adventures!

Keep reading this Sutra Vaporizer Blog to learn some summer vape safety tips, which Sutra devices are primed to enhance your fun, and a couple of activities to bring your new vape along with you on!

Top 3 Summer Safety Tips

First amongst our tips this summer, is do NOT leave your vape in a hot car or direct sunlight for any amount of time! When exposed to heat like this, your vaporizer can get damaged internally or even catch fire! Not good for a chill summer day!

An important note is the “for any amount of time” caveat, we all know that sometimes we just want to run into a store for a minute. But this is the summer after all, you never know when you will run into someone or get stuck for longer; so just be sure to bring your vape along with you to avoid any of this!

Next, we’d like to point out that you should NEVER jump into a pool or the ocean while your vaporizer is still in your pocket! Much like your cellphone, if your vaporizer is exposed to water its internal components will no longer work as intended.

So if you are about to do a cannonball, make sure your phone, wallet, AND vaporizer are in the clear to avoid any watery mishaps!

Lastly, this summer we recommend never leaving your house or apartment without a fully charged vaporizer! Summer is the season of unpredictability, so anytime you can interject your own version of order via your properly charged, always ready to go vape is one you should take!

Start the habit of always plugging in for a quick charge during your morning routine to make sure your vaporizer is always getting the proper charging time.
