So just thought I'd share..
I've had a couple of incidents of absent mindedness/just plain bad luck, but they left me quite impressed. First, over the weekend I accidently spilled a drink all over myself. I quickly ripped my clothes off and thru them in the washing machine and started it. After getting my mess cleaned up and getting resituated on the sofa, I went to grab my Volt. It wasnt there. To make a long story short, my wife ended up pulling it out of the washing machine about 15 minutes into the wash cycle. Needless to say I wasnt a happy camper. I have only had my Volt a week, and when this happened I was about ready to go buy a carton of analogs Ive done a week without. My wife calmed me down (I get mad at myself when I do stoopid things) and proceed to pop off the LED cover and using the "cool" setting, blow dryed my battery for a while. She then just let it sit out all opened up. The next morning she put it back together and guess what, good as new.
THEN, last night I'm laying down in bed. My Volt is sitting on my nightstand, as well as a bottle of water. I thought I started hearing something but figured it was from the TV or something. About 10 minutes later my wife mentions the sound. I look around and realize there was a hole in my bottle of water, a puddle of water on my nightstand, and my Volt right in the middle of it. It was making a sizzling type noise. I got ...... again, feeling like the analog gods are refusing to let me go or something. I jump up and repeat what she had done a few days before. As I'm blow drying it, I drop it in the sink which had some suds still floating around. The LED starts going crazy and then begins to literally smoke. I let it be for a few minutes, then continued drying, and layed it out. This morning, like new.
Seriously?? I'm no electrician but I'm pretty sure electronic devices, batteries, etc, aren't supposed to get along too well with water. So either I'm an idiot or cursed, not sure which
, but these Volts can take a beating. I don't advise attempting to replicate my incidents, but maybe you can get a little warm and fuzzy from them. Love my Volt more and more every day. Happy vaping!
