This is basically the same thing I posted to the Nu-Vapor forum, but it does tell a little about myself and what I am doing here.

Here's a little story about what happened to me yesterday:
Well, I recently moved and it seems I somehow lost most of my vaping supplies. :oops: My eGos are gone along with my extra atomizers. All I had was the 510 I had in my pocket, some juice and two boxes of cartomizers. And, wouldn't you know yesterday the 510 batteries died. :facepalm: As there are no vape stores around here (Adelanto, California), at least not that I know of (I'm new to the area), I was in trouble! Well, necessity is the mother of invention so I put some rusty electronics skills to use. My soldering iron is deeply packed, but I found paper clips and needle-nose pliers so I bound two 9 volt batteries together in parallel (which doubles the amps) and attached the 510 atomizer so that if I pushed it down it made contact and fired. That was good for about 15 minutes. Why couldn't they have been Energizer alkalines instead of 99 cent store "Super Heavy Duty" ones? I guess it's Murphy's law. I dug around and found a power supply to a wireless router (I'm a computer technician) but it was 12 volt! Thinking quickly I deduced that if I strapped two cartomizers together in series that would drop the voltage to 6v each. So, again with the paper clips, I did just that. I even made a switch with one of the two clips I used. The result? As I'm writing this I am vaping on the weirdest dual-cartomizer 6-volt mod I've ever seen! It hits like a freight train! No failures yet, boy those Boge 510 cartos sure are tough.

Long story short, does anyone know where I can order some eGo Twists and associated eGo-C gear on the cheap? I'd appreciate a PM! ;)
