VYPE ACCESSORIES
Very often, we find ourselves confronted with the safe transport of vaping equipment in a nomadic life. Take the metro, pick up the children from school, take a break from work… all these small gestures of daily life generate movements which are only expressions of normal life.
In this case, it can sometimes be complex to ensure good reliability over time of its equipment or consumables which are put to the test. Putting your pod in the bag is good. If we accept that the inside of the bag is free of dust, crumbs, scraps of various and varied fabrics which can be the cause of unforeseeable breakdowns.
And what about the capsules full of liquid? Although these are made not to leak, it may happen that a shock or a rise in temperature can undermine the seal of the product and create a tsunami of liquid in your pocket or your famous bag.
Sometimes, very little is enough to overcome this type of problem which will certainly make your colleagues laugh but which will embarrass you: can I get my phone back, mister technician? My darling's photo is soaked. My bag smells of mint ...
In order to allow you to transport your equipment and consumables in total safety, Vype therefore offers us two practical accessories. The first allowing you to carry around your ePen 3 or ePod battery without breaking it. The second being devoted to the transport of the capsules in a sealed environment.

The object is presented as a case that is easy to use. An elastic surrounds a flap that can be released to give access to the battery that you have put in. On its front, it is made of twill, a twill weave of cotton threads obliquely, like jeans, which seems to be glued to a thin layer of rigid plastic to ensure good protection of the contents. The flap and back, meanwhile, are covered with a pleasant to the touch rubbery material.
The Sleeve is available in four colors that will allow you to match your accessories to your battery.
We immediately realize that this case was designed above all for the ePen 3. Indeed, its size is ideal for accommodating the battery by ensuring that it is securely held. For the ePod, the case turns out to be a bit large and, if it still protects your battery well, it will struggle to occupy the space and rattle a bit.
The whole is quite rigid and displays a good perceived solidity. We crash tested this case by throwing it from the third floor with an ePod in it. No problem. Neither the battery nor the case suffered. In the weight test, the empty object withstands pressures of about 30kg. Once filled, it supports much more, in the order of a hundred kilos. Suffice to say that you can happily walk on it, your precious battery is not ready to give up.
In short, here we have an elegant case, quite suitable for its basic functionality which is to protect its contents from shocks or dust and even water. If the cotton will take some time to dry, the inside will remain completely dry by passing it under a tap.
THE POUCH
- Tariff: 4.99 €
- Link to the manufacturer's website: VYPE
- Height: 74 mm
- Width: 68 mm
- Thickness: mm 19
- Weight: 34.30 gr
- Material: Silicone
- Efficiency: Excellent.
Note: 4.7 / 5 
The Pouch is a devilishly clever object! Its function is to carry capsules by isolating them from any external objects. Square format and made of silicone, the Pouch has an opening at the top that opens like some wallets by exerting pressure on both sides of the slot.
Very convenient to use, it can hold around three ePen 3 capsules and around five ePod capsules, so you can easily change flavor during the day.
It is also available in four colors to harmonize your accessories together.
Its silicone construction gives it two major qualities. First, it seals the contents. If a capsule were to leak, the liquid would not spill out of the Pouch. Second, it is easily washable with a little lukewarm water and washing up liquid. A rather interesting quality for the durability of the object and its cleanliness.
In the crash test, due to its structural elasticity, it provides good protection against impact and even a hammer does not break the capsules placed inside (in “normal” use, it is obvious that if you put a blow mass on it, it will not resist). But you don't buy this type of product to break it with a sledgehammer ...
In summary, we have here a very well thought out accessory that is totally adapted to its function.
