I dropped my Buzz. It made a noise like a firecracker when it hit the concrete. Oh, I've drtopped it before, but this time it hit the solid concrete so hard, the CRACK noise it made when it hit the ground... it really sounded like a fire cracker. I figured there was no freakin way it survived.

Sure enough, the light barely flickered red... it was dead. No vapor. I'm thinkin I killed it. I wondered how many G's it encountered. I was not surprised it was broken. Honestly, the noise when it hit the floor...

I get home. I throw some fresh batteries in and give it a shot... it's working fine. The batteries must have shattered internally, but the Buzz was absolutely undamaged! How the heck can a mod be more shock resistant than the freakin batteries are? I was dumbfounded... dumbfounded and happy!

Haven't posted in a long while, but this experience was worthy of it's own thread, not coincidentally, the month of my 1 year no analog anniversary. Couldn't have done it without my two Buzz's! Incredible.

Congratz on your 1 year anniversary and Vet status NoM!! Great to see you here :)

What a great story and I'm glad your Buzz survived!

I was showing off my original Buzz yesterday in Lowes and as I handed it to the sales guy we fumbled, it hit the floor, and rolled so far under the isle shelves that he had to get a stick to fish it out! He was very apologetic but amazed that there wasn't a scratch, dent or broken tank! I gave him an ECF card and a Notcigs card LOL

That title is self appointed LOL!

I was in Lowes looking for the shaft collars to make a carto punch with. That's how I ended up demonstrating my Buzz :) The guy was fascinated with the whole idea, he'd seen the little starter kits but never anything like a Buzz. He dragged me around to show it to a couple of other employees too! Turned out that he's also tattoo artist and was interested in bartering on a memorial tatt for my mom that I've wanted to get for years...almost worth trading a Buzz for ;)
