I like to think I am a good little girl scout. I learn from other peoples mistakes. So when I started vaping, I got myself a nice little case to carry spare batts and extra cartos in, just in case... Many times I have seen threads where people have had a batt die or run out of juice at a place where they can't get to more immediately. I have always felt bad for these people, but maybe a little smug too...

Always be prepared.

So....Imagine my surprise tonight when I got to work and my nifty little case with all my extra stuff was not in my lunchbox where I ALWAYS put it before I leave for work. Ahhh, but that's ok.

Always be prepared.

I have a Saber. That battery lasts all night long. No problem. I also have a XXXL Carto. It holds 3.5ml of juice. No problem.
Wait...when did I fill my carto up last?
2 DAYS AGO!!??
Oh CRAP! So much for always being prepared....
I think when I get home I will put an extra batt and a couple cartos in the car...

I have two cases both are identical one holds two batteries and two cartomizers the other is a charger.
I had prepared 2 carts and put 2 charged batteries into the case for a venture out.
When i got to my destination i had to be there for 4 hours.
When i opened my case for some vapin i was shocked i saw just a battery charger no battery no carts, i had grabed the wrog case on the way out the door...DOH

I was just thinking about this last week. Indian Summer is probably over up north so time to pack up the car with Blizzard Emergency supplies again. The heat in summer would destroy juice pretty fast so I pulled everything out in May, but in NJ it's time to put a 24 hour supply in my glove compartment again.

My 2 old KR808 passthrus, extra battery, charger, empty cartos, and a bottle of mediocre eliquid should do the trick, figuring I'd have a REO with me with a few spare batteries.

What do others keep in their cars?

First post! Yeah! I one accidently left my charger, batteries, and cartos behind at home when I went on a week long trip this past summer. It was quite the bummer. But as you said... "always be prepared" - now I carry some old back up equipment in my car at all times! You live, you learn am I right? But being that the seasons are changing, do you think a Chicago winter might ruin a PCC/battery/cartos? I'm considering pulling them from my car.

Blizzards in NJ? Bad snow storms yes (after being stranded for a couple of days out in the middle of nowhere on Plains of the midwest I can get away saying that). But if the weather forecast says it is gonna be bad out I do carry my Camelback, and a couple of MRE's in the car. As for vaping supplies I always carry both my Bloog PCC with a small bottle of juice plus a couple of extra batteries as well as my Boge Revo v2.1 so I pretty much have my bases covered. Learned my lesson being stuck in NYC during the blackout of 2003.

Yeah, in addition to my daily pocket kit with a couple of Riva batteries and cartos, I always carry a couple of 510 "slim" batteries in my get-out-of-town-quick case. Several 5 mL bottles of liquid, couple of extra carts, attys and cartos in there too. Chargers are the issue. Too big for the GOOTQ case so I usually toss them into my laptop case. If I forget that, I'd be up a tree for sure if stuck fer several days or more.
