I travel a lot, and at times I arrive knackered when journeys don’t go that easily and have been known to stop off at places of adult entertainment for a quick Boilermaker or two before unpacking in the house … a situation which in this land of hard floors and tiled pavements calls for kit that’ll stand a drop onto the deck.
Here’s my kit for the next few months … and a caveat - yes I do know about EFest batteries, but down in Al Andalus they are all you can get readily and I never build coils below 0.9 anyway and do keep an eye on them.
So to the kit - an El Cheapo Terminator Squonk Box, which has a rubberised finish so it has survived a knock or two and which has room behind the feeder tube to accomodate a spare premade, pre wicked coil and a small Allen key for the Origen Little. When not in use it lives in an old hard sunglasses case.
For this and the Dripper I have 1 Ohm Coils premade plus cotton in a single battery case.
As a first back up, I have my Enforcer Dripping Atomiser, which doesn’t leak, is easy to build on with those big post hole screws, which in a pinch you can use a knife on if you have no screwdriver to hand, is solidly built and which despite its size offers as much, or even more, flavour than my Origen when shut down a bit. It fits on my three year old well scratched iStick 40W, which refuses to die just fine.
As a second back up, simply because I love the Mark 1 Nautilus Minis, I have one - but this time fitted with the latticed metal tank “just in case”.
And as a last resort, in case the worst comes to the worst, a few original ViVi Novas with a handful of their old silica wicked heads - these live in the house here in Spain and after the last trip I had to resort to one. It wasn’t actually that bad … and it’s strange to think that only a few short years ago these were considered state of the art!
That’s my travel kit, plus of course stocks of my own liquid, decanted into commercial 10 mil juice bottles which does save a lot of questions at airport security, I carry 10 in a clear bag and my wife takes 10 for me as we each can only have 100 mils as hand luggage in Europe.
That’s my travel kit when I’m away for months at a time - I’d love to hear what others take!
