Heat and moisture are the two things that will wreck your vaporizer hardware faster than anything else. A hot car dashboard or a humid bathroom cabinet might seem convenient, but they're the worst spots. Heat can degrade the battery and warp plastic parts, while humidity can cause corrosion on connections and inside the device.

Keep your device in a drawer or shelf away from direct sunlight. If you're storing it for more than a few days, take the cartridge or tank off and store it separately. This prevents leaks and reduces stress on the threading.
