So pack your vaporizer to the following regulations:

  • If you have a vaporizer that can’t remove its battery, make sure that your device is turned off by the button and that it is secure so that it can’t come on by accidentally.
  • Putting your vaporizer in its original box is a great idea because the device will fit perfectly inside the box and will not move around.
  • Remember to take extra of your replaceable components
