T-Bone Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 I think you're all on to something with the "backups for your backups" mantra. I went out Tuesday night and lost my very first Spinner and tank. Had to buy a pack of smokes (should have bought some cartridges for my little mini white thing that I first bought, but still sucked to lose it. I'm pretty sure I left it in a friend of a friend's truck when we went for a ride to the store so I have to track him down at some point and see. My replacement is a few miles away waiting for the post office to open, mail comes earlier here on Saturdays (about 11am) as opposed to about 5pm during the week, so I'm going to be a happy vaper in a few hours.

aufin Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Yep, backups are an essential part of getting off the BT bandwagon. Seems a bit costly at first till you learn the hard way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Next time you go out, leave your Spinner at home and take the other "little white thing" with you instead. Hope you find your Spinner so you'll have another back up. Many of us have "been there, done that", which is why we sing the "back ups" song. Others of us are just predisposed to being paranoid about running out of anything that getting back ups is just second nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compenstine Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 My backups are now in use as my charger for the 18650 batteries has went dead. It will give me an excuse to get a better one, but yes I wish I got the better one months ago. This time I will grab a second for a back though. I knew I should have one and not making excuses for myself. At least my backups are getting some vape love for a little while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dang comp, you are always costing me money....juice, tiger wire, and now a backup battery charger....lol! J/K. I really have thought about getting a 2 bay charger to carry with me on the road. I don't ususally carry my mechs and RDA's, but you never know. My 4 bay has been working flawlessly, but that can change in a flash! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 EVERYTHING needs a back up, not just the obvious like batteries, tanks, coils, juice... Chargers of every kind need back ups as well as ohm meters and torches. Compenstine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are absolutely correct and I have all those backups. Just neglected the charger... I won't now though! Tam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonculp Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 LOL Tam can get you to spend money faster than I could. She is good at it too! The reality of it is, I am gonna spend it no matter what, but I am going to blame it on whoever suggested it...lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnoh Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I feel the pain. I'll repeat what happened a while back. I went to the pub (I know I know, typical!) which is only about 5 mins. from home. I took extra tanks, mods, juice, and a battery bank that could probably if asked, jump start a 747. When I got there, I noticed that because of poor planning on my part all my batteries were knock knock knockin' on heaven's door. "No problem!", I thought. Battery bank! Murphy jumped in, "Not so fast!". My cable had a kink in it and no connectivity. Probably rolled up too tight in my pocket. Now as I said the pub is only 5 minutes from home, but I didn't want to waste any valuable drinking time. I had to leave by 9 because I have to play security guard at sig other's shop and help close and bring home the day's receipts. Fortunately a staff member at the pub had a 240 volt wall charger with a micro usb connector, so I could vape and not lose drinking time even though I was tethered to the wall like talking on an old fashioned phone. I now also have with me 2 cables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
