This depends on how cold of a winter you have in mind. If the temperature does not go below zero, you should be fine without any extra precautions. If you live in a colder climate, there are several things to keep in mind.
First, watch ours for your battery. At -10°C, your fully charged battery will perform at about 70% of its capacity — and it will only go down from here. This won’t cause any damage to the battery itself but it means you have to charge your vaping device more frequently. It is important that you warm up your vaping device to room temperature before charging it — charging your gadget when it’s cold may permanently reduce its battery capacity. When outside, keep your e-cigarette close in the inside pocket so that it stays as warm as possible.
Second, don’t vape 100% VG. Vegetable glycerin freezes at 13°C. However, when VG is mixed with other ingredients, it’s freezing point goes substantially down. For instance, if you mix it with water in a 2:1 proportion, it will only freeze at -46°C. Thus, if you do plan to be somewhere even mildly cold this winter, it’s best to be careful with vaping 100% VG. Opt for vape juices that are at least 50% PG.
Third, go with non-metallic drip tips. If the drip tip on your vaping device is made of steel, it may become an issue in winter. While your mod may still feel warm in your hand, you may get an unpleasant surprise when touching the metal drip tip to your lips. As drip tips are well insulated to prevent them from getting too hot, in winter, this feature may turn against you. And, as below the freezing point, metal can get stuck to your skin.
