Well I knew this would happen sooner or later because I have dropped all my mods at one time or another.I was walking out into my garage and my wifes kitten ran between my legs causing me to loose my balance so I wouldn't crush her.The BP shot out of my hand and hit the concrete atty first at an angle.I was so ...... off I can't even describe it,I love this thing.I picked it up to check it out and not a mark on the body but my 801 was a bit bent to the side.The red light was on so I tried it and nothing.Removed the cap and found the wire broke off the cap connection.I soldered it back on and shrink tubed it and now it works fine again.The only other thing I noticed is the electronics inside seen to have shifted slightly towards the front.The wheel used to turn freely but now there's a bit of resistance,which I like because it stays put if my finger bumps it.Overall the BP held up better than I thought it would.

The hubby did the same exact thing tripping over our baby beagle the other day. The BP came out without a scratch. The liquinator survived as well. The fall was bad enough however to split the boge in two!

But the Liquinator is OK?? Whew! That's a relief.
BTW, how's the hubby? Just a thought...

Oh yeah, the hubby should be out of traction soon... LOL

Hubby and Puppy are fine, he never hit the floor just stumbled in an attempt to not break the puppy (like the original poster) beagle puppies are small and it takes them a bit to learn how to stay out from under foot! I guess in an attempt to keep his balance just like the original poster the BP went flying.

When he came and told me about, I wasn't so worried about the BP as I have heard many stories about their toughness. My first thought was for the liquinator and was pretty surprised looking at the damage to the boge inside that it survived without a scratch.

So in order of priority hubby, puppy, bp and liquinator are all well and fine!

Our 2 English Bulldogs think that's where they're supposed to walk. Right where you step and they try to beat each other out. I have to stop and tell them to move. All that takes is a stern voice and a finger point.

We've always had big dogs (rotties, english mastiffs, labs) until we got the beagles so this under foot stuff is new to us. My 2 year old beagle was the same way, but at about 6 to 8 months old he learned on his own to stay out from under feet as he didn't like getting stepped on... The baby is 6 months old now and we are tripping over her less frequently! It is very funny as my older beagle now walks a few feet ahead of me so he doesn't get left behind, but he is constantly looking behind himself to make sure he hasn't lost me or taken a wrong turn!

i dropped an original buzz off my bike doing 60 mph. atty shattered, and the buzz took a few lumps, but kept on working. the circuit shifted inside a bit like yours, but buzzkill fixed it right up. glad yours is okay.

And that is the story that inspired me to get my OB 10 months ago :)

All I got to do to get JD to give me room is say BATH. Then he is gone, no hesitation.


I believe Gene Pitney sung it a little differently.

Last night I hurt you but Buzz Pro remember this
Only I can break a Buzz only Mike can mend it again, hmm, hmm
You know I'm sorry, I'll prove it with just one puff
Only I can break a Buzz only Mike can mend it agai-ai-ain

Give me a chance to make up for the harm I've done
Try to forgive me and let's keep the two of us one.

Please let me hold you and vape you for always and always
Only I can break a Buzz only Mike can mend it agai-ai-ain
Only I can break a Buzz only Mike can mend-it--again
