What do you do when you run out of batteries?!?

[Jules22871]

It hasn't happened to me yet and I pray it never does because it won't be pretty.

I have this OCD thing with batteries, all batteries, anything that runs on batteries. I have at least 40 AA batteries in a drawer "just in case" I might need them for something. If I have an ecig batt go bad I order 2 to replace it. I am terrible about that. I just recently got a passthru and I think I'm going to be just as bad over it. I am already planning on ordering spares. You just cannot be prepared enough!

there's alot of things u can drip on.............stove, barbecue,lighter

LOL!

1) Bring your charger to work.

2) Buy a Janty Stick or other "mod" type with generic batteries.

3) Buy some extra batteries, man!

I've actually got passthroughs, extra chargers, car adapters, extra batteries and a Kensington battery pack so I'm covered there. So if I start weeping uncontrollably it's because everything has failed.

I'm waiting for the 2nd Generation of the sticks and mods to come out. I've jumped on 1st editions of some of the esmoking devices before and would just feel more comfortable to wait and let all the initial "undocumented features" shake out first.

I was looking at a screwdriver tho...but TW USA sold out before I could get one.

Steal the battery out of the cordless phone.

My best advice is to learn how to make a box mod that uses standard 'AA' batteries...it's simple, and you'll never be without easy access to batteries.

I have failsafe after failsafe after failsafe: Three SDs, about 70 atomizers, tons of the cheap SD batteries and three chargers for them, three USB passthroughs for just in case, and I'm going to buy the PS manual passthrough with both the 901 and 801 adapters, two APC power packs and one Rockfish (bigger) powerpack, another powerpack that can also be solar charged, the Weller (soldering tool mod ), lots of AA rechargeables for the Weller, two mini pipes with two batteries each (which I hardly ever use, and two others never opened which I better list for sale soon!), ten extra batteries for the mini pipes, and I'm not going to even get into the liquids and flavorings and menthol crystals here.

I created a 3AA mod just for these kind of situations. It will last long enough for a battery to charge. I can always find AAs if needed.

same here! if my 901 battery is toast i grab my box mod. and if those batteries die while im out stop at a gas station and pick up some more!

Leave early. Head for home and don't ever let that happen again! I carry my purse but you could think of something to make sure you keep an extra charged battery and another cart with you in case of failure. Keeps you from having a Panic Attack!

I carry my 510 kit (2 batts and attys) a 901 kit (2 batts and attys) 2 evos (and 3 attys) and 1 801 with me everywhere I go.

There's very little chance of me ever running out of batteries

LMAO I ninja charged my 510 battery at my friends house at a cook out cpl weeks ago. I took the dc barrel connector pwr cable off his digital picture frame. I plugged it in the barrel 6v-12v side connector on my charger worked great. Saved me from bummin a cig hehe.
