Haha, that happened to me with my ego charger. One of them was dying and during a move I swore I lost the other one. Eventually the thing crapped out and after tearing my house apart the first time, I was afraid to go looking again. First place I looked.... there it was. Amazing. I swear PVs and their accessories have a mind of their own.

i went looking for my 1000 twist the other day. it is usually attached to my lanyard, around my neck, in my uniform shirt pocket. I even pulled it out of my pocket to check what else was in my pocket, only to put it back and continue searching for said item. Needless to say, i found it....

Not traumatic, but could have been: My girlfriend and I went to Italy for 2 weeks (without internet). I packed her KGO case, only to later find that her case only had clearomizers in it - no batteries. Luckily, she had her old Mistic stuff, and I had backup Volt stuff, in addition to 3 KGO batteries.
The lessons? Look INSIDE the case, and backups, backups, backups... :)

It was your PV! :facepalm:

I have placed my PV in a increasingly stupid place in my house a place that I rarely go or look at but of course i was there long enough to set my PV down and promptly forget about said mystical wondrous place.

Have you every lost your PV if so where did you find it.

Don't even go there.
My life has become increasingly more complicated by the amount of...stuff...I have to continually be mindful of.

The absent-minded persons nightmare.

(Cell phone...glasses...keys...wallet....e-cigarette...backup batteries...ipod touch...ipod touch charger...backup charger...juice bottles...cartos...carto punch...work id....)

Sounds worse than it is though. Most of the stuff is in my back-pack.
I've conditioned myself to keep my Provari in my hand, pocket or case.
I immediatedly look for it whenever I lose sight of it.
And I'm always checking for it.

(I have nightmares now about losing my Provari.)

If the Provari was my private part.
I'd be arrested for continually fondling myself.

I think I need help.

Just remembered I lost my Provari last week!

Slid it into it's case on my belt when I boarded the bus.
Shifted the case to prevent jabbing myself in the side.
Got off the bus, walked a few feet, reached for my Provari
and the case was empty.

First thought
"STOP THE BUS!"
But the bus had already left.

So I'm pondering how I'll manage to replace it as I dejectedly retraced the few steps I took since exiting the bus
and spotted my Provari lying on the sidewalk.

Can you spell "relief"?

Wow that's crazy lucky. You should engrave your phone number on the inside of the bottom cap in hopes that a fellow vaper finds it ;)

I should superglue it to my hand.
I'm settling instead to either put my pv in my pocket (sans tank) or my back pack when riding the bus.

Sill no PV sigh I think I'm going to have to bite the bullet and buy a new one these are the days i wish i was a millionaire and not a poor college kid who works at papa johns.

I know you hate having to replace it, but making yourself miserable prolongs the agony.
You're gonna replace it anyway; the sooner you do so the better you'll feel.

I always lose my pv, however now I know where it is. While driving I keep my pv in my door handle. Every time I go to exit my car it pops out and falls under my seat. First time it happened I was looking for a good hour or two before I found it. Now at least I know where it will be a majority of times.

Lanyards are great for keeping the PV handy and in site when at home, long trips, etc. Unfortunately, I lost my lanyard! It will probably turn up somewhere really strange eventually. Oops, gotta go now--my husband just found my PV!

I tried using a lanyard for the obvious reason of keeping it attached to you, but also to keep my kids from getting a hold of my PV. My 2 yr old seems to have a knack for grabbing it the second I set it down. But I had to quit wearing it because any time I bent over to change a diaper, pick them up, or get them out of the car my battery would whack them in the head! Pretty hard too.

You're right. Been holding off purchasing a lanyard due to the weight of the pv, but I'm reconsidering that decision now. It is a practical solution for misplacing or losing your pv.
