I've thought about this a dozen times, but thought I was smart enough not to make this mistake.....
I keep my Vamo + Protank standing in a coffee cup to keep it from rolling around and falling off the table. This morning I also had a cup of Dandelion Coffee, (It wasn't even REAL coffee, darn it!), and as I was reading this mornings latest posts I absent mindedly reached over an plunked my brand new Vamo in a half full cup of coffee.
As soon as it glugged as it struck the bottom of the cup I yanked it out while filling the air around me with colorful phrases of self deprecation. I yanked of the bottom cap and spilled the batteries into my lap and frantically began wiping down the inside of the tube, end cap and spring.
I could tell right away it had not reached the circuit board but I continued to wipe and dry the interior until i was sure no residual moisture remained in or around the tube. I wiped the flat top blue 750 mah batteries and set them aside, grabbed my newly charged trustfires and loaded them up.
I saw the "Blink of Happiness" as I tightened down the cap and after a long held breath, clicked five times and turned it on. "ON" never looked so good to me! I checked all my readings and tried a tentative vape. It worked. I started breathing again.
I never thought I would do this as I had used a cup the did not resemble the rest of my coffee cups for just this reason. It just goes to show you can be too sure of yourself and do something stupid.
I plan to order another Vamo now because if I did lose this one I would be very unhappy vaping anything else until a new one arrived, (it is just that darned good!). I also plan to get something that looks NOTHING like a coffee cup, like a flower pot or cast iron something or other to stand my Vamo in, you can never be too careful!
