Right now I have 10 XL's & 2 reg's ...(I'm trying to stock up so when I loose power during hurricane season, I can still keep vaping, LOL)

Oooh!! That's a great idea!! Losing power for weeks after a hurricane is never fun! Luckily I have a laptop for that exact reason!! Although, I guess the internet won't work :( Darn it! Back to the drawing board!

keep a full tank of gas and a car charger, you should be ok (if you have a car).

Have 3 PT's & car charger ♥ Problem is all the gas stations ran out quickly when the storm came thru. People stocking up for generators (lucky people), and people evacuating etc. and the pumps don't work for gas during the power shut downs even if they have gas. It was HORRIBLE to say the least ♥

Last time I was hit, I was without power for 14 days.....

Wow!!! That's harsh! We were lucky with Ike (the last one here). We were only out for 3 days. But no one could go to work for a week, not to mention none of the traffic lights worked so a 30 min. drive turned into 2 hours!!! I have some awesome pics of the damage!! But there were some people out for 2 weeks! My parents were out for 10 days. My husband and I live about 60+ miles from the coast, so we normally don't get hit very hard. But that one was brutal!
Do you ever evacuate or always ride it out?

Lol!! That is what we did!! Although if there is a gas station with gas you can be sure that there will be a LONG line to get to it! And you're one of the lucky ones if they don't run out before you get there!

I think my count is 27 assorted batts as of right now Ms. Harmony...

Lol!! Thank you sir :)
I just went to the website and put several more on my wishlist :D Can't get any now but it's nice to add them to the list and then go look at them from time to time. It makes me happy!

Have ridden them out since I've lived here..but, if one comes that's HUGE, I will leave for sure

Yeah, my husband went through Katrina in New Orleans. So he's a nervous wreck when thry hit!! But we have no where to evacuate to. Last time we evacuated to North East Texas and the hurricane turned and hit there instead! After that I've decided we can just ride them out. It was worse than I thought, but with 3+ cats and 3+ dogs there aren't many hotels we can run to if we do run.

Oh, and make sure you get out early!! Traffic during mandatory evacuations are THE WORST!! Worse than the hurricane for sure! At least IMO, we've had some bad experiences here.

I like the idea of "turning it on" and then taking a draw. Sometimes it can be frustrating when the carto is cold and I'm not getting any vapor. I've seen videos of just pushing the button to warm up the carto and then vaping and it looks amazing!! I'm actually thinking of getting a manual PT for my truck. Less frustration when I'm driving would be good. Especially with Houston traffic!

Oh wow, you're from houston too! Yea, the traffic can be murder.. luckily i work from home now...

yea, i get a lot of vapor using the manuals. With the auto, ive gotta keep a consistant drag to keep the battery going..
