Sitting in front of my computer, reading whatever is interesting.
My eGo-T is sitting on the charger as it died earlier.
Switched to the eGo-T passthru, noted that it was vaping a bit weak. Figured I changed the atty a few days ago, probably wouldn't hurt to swap out for a new tank and such(eGo-C type B system)
Changed the tank, topped up, etc, etc, went back to vaping.

About 15 minutes later I wasn't getting any vapor. Turns out the battery was already weak since I haven't bothered to use or recharge it the last few days. The lack of charge was confirmed when I looked at the button and saw it blinking wildly, an indication that it's entering sleep mode.

So now both my main batteries are charging and I'm stuck with this cheap little automatic which might not last much longer itself.

Go me. :blink:

I was nervous about something like that happening because my husband still smokes. I ordered this as my official "back-up" plan if all my Ecigs broke on the same day :)

Smok Tech 5 Volt 510 Manual USB Passthrough
2 amp AC to USB Adapter

It has no battery and as long as you have electric, you can vape. I ordered a second one too to keep at work because half my co-workers smoke. I don't use them in my computer's USB ports because I'm paranoid about my expensive gaming pc.

When you can, get one of those PT's and adapters. It'll give you peace of mind to have a PLan B if all else fails.

This is why I always have backup batteries charging! Anytime I kill a set of batteries, I always have another fully charged set at the ready.

Same. Ever since I got a mod im never out of battery.. I always have a spare 18650 fully charged and have 4 14500s always ready to go for my girlfriend.

I had to get a 6 bay charger to keep up.

I only have a 2-bay charger, but I always have a fresh set for both my buzz and my reo grand. The nice thing about having stacked battery mods is they take half the time to charge.. I can charge 2x 18350's in 2 hours. Buzz's 16340's are even quicker.

Ive got two people to keep two different battery types charged for ;) the 18650s last me 2-3 days each easily, but the 14500s drain fast for the girl.. she goes through 2-3 per day. It's really my fault for getting her hooked on VV.

Time to get her another mod to space out the charges :D

I wish. She doesn't like the larger mods so she ended up with the L-Rider Robust and she's happy with it. I send her with a battery in it and 2 extras charged and ready to go. The solution ended up being stocking up on 14500s and having plenty available :) plus side is the xtar charges them super fast.
