Do you Vape on the Beach?

I was just wondering if any of you had any problems vaping on the beach. Such as corrosion or switch problems.
I'm not planning on dropping my mod in the sand but you never know.... and that salty air is hazardous. Thoughts...?
 
When go to the beach or other similar activities, I just bring a semi-disposable rig that I won't fret over if it's lost or destroyed. A beat up K100 mech and an cheap tank (protank with rebuilt head) works great. I try to use something that is pretty well sealed to keep out dirt and keep an old carto condom on the tip when not in use. Shiny, high end devices are nice and all but sometimes a beater is indispensable.
 
Was at the beach this past weekend, Grabbed my mod out of pocket in beach bag and proceeded to drop it in the sand. Not what I planned on doing but you never know. Just bring something you wont mind dropping and getting full of sand. No matter how hard you try, you WILL get sand in it at some point.

Sand!

If you keep it in your pocket and never sit- peaches. If you do anything else you are going to do some sort of damage. Sand will scratch your finishes. Salt water is deadly for any electronics, and things get lost on beaches.

For me the beach is the same as airport security-

Ego twist & protank/ nautilus.

Leave everything else somewhere safe.

I would take my Maraxxus clone and my Kayfun clone with stainless steel tank. They are nearly indestructible as long as you don't get them wet.

No problems at the beach with the provari. Although I'm very aware of of which way the wind is blowing and how much
ocean mist is present. If sand gets in just unscrew battery cap and blow out.

I'm going to Daytona Beach in a few weeks and have been wondering what mod to use on the beach with a kayfun, either a mechanical or a dna30. Which would probably be the most trouble?

I would take both to the house and only the mech to the beach. Mech doesn't have any boards or anything inside to corrode.
