Over 3 months analog free here, all thanks to vaping and having built a modest system that assures little temptation.

In the spring weather here I was out riding my scooter and lost :ohmy: an entire setup-- eGo battery, loaded Gorilla juice carto, my favorite drip tip and the trim cone (it just looks incomplete without the trim cone). I got home and put together another rig, this time with Boba's Bounty, and didn't miss a beat.

I've got one more battery, plenty of juice, 6 blank cartos, coupla tips. I could lose my first back-up and still be in business, minus the cone.

So, obviously I'm going shopping again :). This time, one eGo battery (650 has been fine), another eGo charger, 5 pack smoketech or boge carto's, a cone and a couple of mouthpieces to try.

After 35 years of tobacco, vaping was a powerful and instant success for me. I'm taking no chances, nor long ocean cruises.

Have to agree here. One month analog free, and I have an eGo-C. I have plenty of tanks, but I switched to using a FLuXomizer, and a VISION Stardust.

After that, I have a stock of juices, atomizers, batteries, and chargers. I noticed that there is a new variable battery for the eGo that just came out, I may get two of those as well. Backups (much like in my day job) are king. You can never have too many, but you're screwed if you don't have enough.

I always thought it was too much to carry 2 atomizers (both repairable, 1 drip and 1 tank) lots of batteries for my mods and, at least, 50 ml of juice. Well, yes, almost everything I have, I carry it with me.
Until the day came and I had to stay, unexpectedly, away from my home for 3 days.

Now, the next step on backups will be something to wait for me at... home.
Just in case I loose my carry bag :D

Totally agree on the backups, especially for newbies like me trying to quit analogs. I'm a flight attendant and travel overseas a lot so I really need to be organized with it, and I haven't been so I've let myself down and smoked analogs when the battery has run down or I've run out of fav juice. Luckily I have a great place not to far from me that set me up and I'll be going back tomorrow for a duplicate eGo T and whatever the thing that holds the juice is called!

I have been at this for a little over a year now . And actually use either 6 or even 0 nic. juice , but I really like vaping , so not much chance of quitting any time soon . As I'm also retired , I take a lot of little trips , about once a month or so . Before I leave , I'm sure to pack 3 or 4 complete setups , PV , carto , tank , or what ever and plenty of juice . Then just to be sure , I pack my emergency kit . It contains 4 Ego's and and vision carto's for all , plus 2 battery chargers . I also carry the need chargers for the other PV's as well , and have probably at least a dozen or more batteries for everything . Now that may sound a bit extreme , but I have never been with at least one or two functioning PV"s .
