Hey all. Just checking in. We fared well during the storm. Never lost power. Daughter's family stayed with us. Just bought a house on Matlacha (Matt-La-Shay). The island of Matlacha is still standing, was afraid we were going to own property on the bottom of the bay, but that didn't happen....the house is fine. We were truly blessed.
WOW! That is wonderful.

Glad to hear you made it through the storms and are safe.

You can see our new home here. It is on a deep water canal and two hundred yards from the house is the deep channel that leads to the Gulf, so we are just a short ways from running wide open. Greg couldn't be happier. (I'm pretty pleased also.) https://www.zillow.com/homes/2732-Velma-St,-Matlacha,-FL-33993_rb/
Gorgeous!

Well I'm back and I'm bootiful. The smoke cleared out here for a while then yesterday the wind changed and brought in more smoke from Montana fires. Looks a little better today. Trip went fine. We stayed in the same rest area and had the gal we were going to spend some time with drive up and visit for a while. As we got closer and closer to Spokane it got smokier and smokier. Like I was saying we have no fall anymore. It was 90 last week and have our first freeze warning for tonight. Up to a foot of snow in the mountains of Montana above 6000' and in the lower 4-6" we are just supposed to get into the freeze zone.
I have to put this in. What are we suppose to do about N Korea. I don't understand and with China and Russia not on board we are in a hell of a predicament. I just don't get this idiot. He can hit one target and we can blow him up then Russia or China can blow us up. This is a really scary situation. I guess that is what you call RL.

We had a school shooting here. 1 dead 3 wounded shooter 15 in custody and going to be charged as an adult. That was day before yesterday. Haven't really seen the whole story, the news here just keeps talking about the trauma help for the other students but didn't hear about the death, they were talking a lot about suicide so just don't know.

Does a mod ever show that a battery has no juice even though it is charged? I have that happening now with two mods. A Wismec 2/3 and a Kangertech mode. I was going crazy thinking all my batteries were dying at once and then I went to the stash drawer and tried other mods and, voila, my batteries are fine??
This has me confused. (I mean more than usual confused)

PS should have added that both devices are about 6 months old and daily drivers and have probably been dropped. Wondering if this is a sign of a broken mod?

Well that's really odd, that two would go at the same time. But if the batts 'show OK' in other mods, got to suspect something is wrong with them.

My Kanger NEBox does something odd with batteries. If I charge the battery via USB while in the mod. In the charging setup it knows it is charged but when I push the fire button it says the battery is dead. I have to take the battery out of the mod and put it back in before the FIre button behaves. I wonder if something like that is happening.

As in they don't light up at all? If so, maybe a polarity issue? Now that most mods have reverse polarity protection, and it's not as critical to install them the right direction.... I've found myself putting an 18650 in backwards now and then, and, well, the mod doesn't work...

If they show low when firing, do you have the power set too high?

If they power up but show low charge before even trying to fire, yeah, maybe both chose today to bite the bullet...

LOL

Actually I have heard that a Fair few of the Kanger Mods and some of the ALiens have a similar issue. My 2 ALiens have not shown any sign of it. That one Kanger though definitely does whch is annoying since it is such a pain to get the battery out. I have to use a coin in a slot to unscrew the battery cap.
