Stuck in a hard place

[Redd]

So I have a day on the road ahead tomorrow. Have to meet with some customers. But here's the kicker. I'm down to 2 batteries and 1 atty for my 510, 1 batt, a host off attys for the 901 and NO FREEGING car charger or adaptor for any of it. (cleaned 3 under-producing 510 attys but I'm not going to call them resurrected)

I've been keeping an eye on my fav distributors and they have been out of stock on most all hardware, so last night I took the plunge with a new one, who's prices on the same harware is much higher, but damn it I need it.

I'm all but giving up on the 510 as I've had horrible luck with the hardware.

So I'll be resorting to analogs tomorrow once I've met with my people until I get all charged up again, and then when my order comes in I should be set till I get paid on the 15th and can get a few accessories for when I have to travel.

Ok...vent over...

Welcome to the wonderful world of 'vaping'. We have to plan ahead at all times - and they say, "children must be protected from the e-cig"!!!!!

I hadn't planned on a road trip for work, it just sort of mutated into one.

I'm usually tethered to a computer.

Redd,

I have gotten 510 attys from strictlyejuice.com and eliquidplanet.com and have had no problems with them (maybe I have been lucky). Prices are pretty good from both places.

What kind of charger are you using? Can you get a AC adapter for your car cig lighter to plug in a normal wall AC charger?

Sorry you might have to hit the analogs for a time.

where are you headed on your road trip? I have some 510 parts and other items in Kenosha if you're headed near here.

 

[Redd]

I'm headed to the Northern area today. Have a few key customers that I need to see.

Best of luck on your road trip, Redd - and in all this snow, too. Aught to make for an interesting day.

Don't beat yourself up if you need to resort to analogs for the day....it happens. But get well-stocked with gear for the next time so it doesn't have to happen again.

Sorry to hear that, I wish you would have had the time to let me know. I would have let you borrow some stuff.

I made it home alive!!!!!!! Body feels broken from white knuckling it on roads. Do towns NOT plow in business districts anymore?

WTF the slush on the main roads itself was 3 inches deep. Siberian mudding championships on every street from downtown Wausau to Cedar Creek mall.....

I actually ordered from 2 places Tuesday one after the other, one from the east coast, one from the west coast...

I'm looking forward to seeing who's gets here first.

 

[Vicks Vap-oh-Yeah]

Glad to hear you made it home in one (although slightly frazzled) piece, Redd... and the weathermen are telling us the 'heavy' stuff will be coming down tonight..... oh, the irony....WTF did they call what it did all day????

Make sure you let us know who gets their stuff to ya first.....THE RACE IS ON!!!!!!!

 

[Kilroy2.0]

So glad you made it home.

I think I might have found a job myself I will know for sure tomorrow.

I hope your stuff gets to you soon.

[Redd]

So happy for you Gena!!!!

you really have to love how the threads in this here area have a life of their own.

You really can not tell by the title what the thread will end up about.

Sorry for the hi-jack

So I go a job in Insurance. Nothing close to anything I am trained to do! We will see how it goes. It is just a job in as a CSR in Life insurance, before anybody gives me any grief.

It's about half of what I used to make, but I am out of a dieing industry that is just shrinking and stressing me out. These are the first people that would give me a chance after 13 years in Publishing/printing and a year of unemployment. So I guess I will take what I can take.

I could have told you Good Prophets would get to you first Rob is the best. I order from him all the time. If you have any issues or questions he is very responsive as well. He is always on my list of Recommendies!!

Glad to hear you got your stuff. I was thinking of getting some blue foam filler when you get it let me know if you like it.

[Redd]

Sure will Gena. I'm hoping I can play with it further and use it in an 801 cart. them things really hate to give up the juice.
