Hi, let me preface this question with an explanation beforehand, that there are two of us here vaping. With one person, its easy to organize it all but with two, you have to keep track of whats what, which belongs to #1 person and what belongs to #2 person.
We each have several tanks and keep to our own. We tend to separate our gear.
I am on my iMac 24-7 and if not on that, I have a smart phone synched to both my iMac and a Macbook pro and I have a synched note pad file that tells me which tank has what flavour in it-generaly by which mod its on.
Thats easy for me to do because i rarely change the mods.
But as we are drawn both, to the heavily dark covered sweet ones, we also go through coils a bit faster than average.
( I just went sub ohm and am learning to make coils tomorrow)
but because at one point we had one really dark juice burn out authentic coils in less than 2 days, I began to write down the dates of new coils for the tanks so at any point i could look back and know when it had last been changed. At the risk of sounding really neurotic, I began doing that ONLY, because I was finishing up a few boxes of Aspire coils I had purchased at my local B + M store that I was sure were fakes. I wanted to make sure they were before ending my patronage there. I also had boxes I had purchased from FT and wanted to be 100% positive they were authentic, which they proved to be and this was the only way with two of us here I could keep control of which ones were which in order to watch them closely.
The problem is with my husband.
He keeps absconding with my new mods.
If I like one and buy two at once, I have to hear him rant and rave about who much money i am spending.
After that 30 minute rant, he will then finally stop long enough to Vape off of the new one and suddenly I lose my new gear as he becomes too attached to it and then suggests that maybe, this "one time' he was wrong and sends me out to buy a second mod, just like the first.
Yes, we have been together 30 years, I know him well
But in the course of this, somehow he has ended up with about 7 mods and tanks on top while i am down to 2.
I ordered a great Vamo 9 clone off of FT, heard the "rant" so ordered that one secretly without telling him....LOL
Didn't want to have to listen to him rant about it on and off for 3 weeks until it was delivered.
I made the mistake of telling him 2 days before it arrived and after looking at the photo of it, he suddenly began to talk about "his" new mod.
/sighs...I knew i should have ordered two
So I ordered another one on March 3rd but typical of FT,, its still not yet packed and sent out so I await it impatiently for a few weeks.
In the course of all of this, since he's great at absconding with mine, and he now has 7...lol.....the problem he, he cant keep track of which flavours are which and at least once a day one is thrust under me so as i can guess for him which flavour he's got.
So after all of that, I am c curious to hear what other couples, or roommates do. Or for that matter, single Vapers that have a large collection.
I just read a post in the "Over 50 Vapers swinging on a porch" or some such title, and there was a quoted post from 2012 on the first page that reminded me that i needed to figure out a way to organize all of these.
The woman had been Vaping for one year and had already amassed 30 tanks with all different flavours in them. No mention was given as to how she managed to remember which one was which.
So bearing in mind that I am willing to type lists or keep things organized that way, but the hubby isn't, how do some of you do it that aren't as fanatical about it as I am?
You cant tell me that you can just look at them for most of ours, once steeped, etc, look the same anyway.
(BTW, this organization extends to Steeping Dates/Purchase dates of each Juice)
I suspect that some might just roll their eyes and suggest I am thinking too much about it and they may be right but i am dealing with the extra problem that one of us is very organized and the other one, not at all. It adds some complications to the mix
Thank you in Advance. I apologize for the length. Years of being a Legal Assistant makes for an extremely fast typist. This took me less than 2 minutes I suspect to type. Many typing two sentences would take longer than I to type all of this out-lest anyone wish to comment upon its length and time typing
