Do vapes set off smoke alarms on planes?

Yes. Planes usually use optical detectors- so if it's visible, it'll set it off. Home smoke alarms have to be the optical type too. Ionization-type detectors usually won't go off with ecig vapour, as they are designed to detect the electrically charged particles in smoke.

Just leave it in your purse. You don't have to take it out. You can carry it on no problem, just whatever you do don't put it in your checked luggage. I travel about 3 times a week and just keep it in my purse, not once has security pulled it out and asked what it was.
