what do you bring for backup?

[Robino1]

I don't bring backups, and haven't for years now.

I know how long my battery is going to last...
And I if my atomizer goes out on me I'll just have a few smokes if I must...

I reached the point long ago where the idea of having a smoke or two if needed does not scare me.
I'm a vaper now, and a couple of smokes here and there isn't going to change that.


But over the last few years, my atomizers have only failed a couple of times while out and about.
And usually I can just wait until I get home, and the smokes don't even come into play.

I'm not so far removed from smoking that I would trust myself if I had even just one cigarette. Not to mention how nasty that would taste. I still remember how nasty my last couple puffs were....... Almost a year(!) later.

I bring my Vamo V3, I have a head on the Vamo, on on the 5vdc USB bypass, and an extra flavor (every day before I head out I grab a fresh charged battery off the charger though, even if battery I am using still has plenty of juice in it)

Yesterday I had along my first rig regulated (Totally Wicked Tornado RCS) because I am going to loan it to a co-worker who is pretty much gone back to smoking because the cigalikes just weren't cutting it for her

Got all my other stuff in a fishing tackle box my wife got me...its my vape station (heads, coil/wick packs, extra USB bypasses, extra mechanicals yadda yadda)

Usually just take my Hogmod bottom feeder and nothing else when I leave the house. 18650 battery and 6 ml juice bottle will last all day. No longer addicted to nic so IF something stops working while I'm away from the house no big deal any longer.

I used to have one extra ego battery, one atomizer, one drip tip and a 3 ml bottle of juice in a small case in my purse at all times just in case I ever needed it.

My bf would so be laughing at me now.

Ok so I usually have 6 egos in my hand bag. And now he got me a vameo and a magneto. And those frequently come along. Each one has a different flavor on it. I like to jump flavors A LOT!

In the car it's in a cup. Same at home. I call it my bouquet i of flavors due to its almost flower appearance.

In work two 350's with mini pros in my pocket. Since it's all that will fit in women's jeans. Lunch break I've got my cup and 30 minutes to jump flavors. So basically I have redundant redundancies.

I'm a vape head and I know it.

 

[AutumnBrook]

Well, I feel extremely overloaded after reading these responses. I always have my Provari, 5 unopened Boge cartomisers, 10-20 bottles of juice, 3 spare batteries, 6 or so full carto tanks, carto punch, some paper towels and whatever else has found its way into my vape bag. It really seems like overkill, but I never know what flavor I'll get a sudden craving for. I don't carry a battery charger though because that would be ridiculous.

Yet I was out all weekend this week and never changed flavors from unflavored. I think I may have a problem...

I hope my load of egos let you see your not alone.

 

[Lombaowski]

I have an eGo carrying case that goes with me every time I leave the house for more than say an hour:

1 eGo 350mAh battery with a full charge
2 EVOD heads, usually filled with juice
2 15ml juice bottles, one filled with a fruit flavor and one filled with a tobacco flavor
Several tip condoms in case I meet folks who want to taste my juice


Additionally I have 1 battery charger in car, 1 at work, several at home. Also have a 650mAh eGO battery and several partial bottles of ejuice in my desk to share, and as backup.

 

[Zealous]

I used cigalikes & a PCC. Sometimes it's my eroll & sometmes just a regular 510 & carto. it works for me.

 

[Ben B Brown]

a pass through and a evod are backup for my svd and protank 2 when i go to work but also carry extra battery and heads have a 30 mil of juice in my office because I have walked out my door and forgot to grab my juice

 

[cdsaint66]

I hope my load of egos let you see your not alone.

Thanks Autumn, I feel a little better now. I probably should go through my kit and weed out some of the juice I don't often use anyway...

 

[Brian21]

I carry my MVP charger Protank and iClear 30.

 

[Butters78]

All my high end stuff stays home. I use an mvp and have a Smoktech groove in my backpack next to my tiger beat magazines.

Tiger Beat huh? I figured you more for a Teen Vogue.

 

[K_Tech]

My backup rig right now is an Ego C-Twist with a couple of cartomizers, usually one already pre-filled with a juice I like and a spare cartomizer still in the wrapping.

I'm not so far removed from smoking that I would trust myself if I had even just one cigarette. Not to mention how nasty that would taste. I still remember how nasty my last couple puffs were....... Almost a year(!) later.

Three years later I still remember how nasty those few puffs I had each day were on my once a day cigarette that first week I started vaping 8-o BUT, about two years after I'd quit I found a stale ciggy between my filing cabinet and computer desk that had been there for who knows how long After not smoking for sooo long I couldn't resist lighting it just to see how I reacted to it. To my great surprise it didn't taste all that bad that convinced me it would never be a good thing to smoke a cigarette that wasn't stale because I might just like it too much and start all over again

Usually, when I go out I'll just bring my erolls and a full T3S and a battery. This past weekend, we went out on our boat for the afternoon and you'd think I was going away for the weekend. Something about not being able to hop in the car and run home or to a store. In addition to what I usually carry, I had two extra batteries, usb charger, a can of juice, another full clearomizer and a spare. And then there's the unopened pack of cigarettes that's still in my purse that I haven't let go of yet.

 

[vicflo]

x6 1300mah and a topped off dual coil mega carto. a less than $20 setup. wont bother me if i lose it and doubt it would break even if i used it to cut down a tree. Maybe an extra mega carto if i plan on being out long. Used to be a short mech but batt life tended to run out often.

if im going a social gathering ill bring my vamo/udct, extra batteries are always in the car including an ego and maybe a mega carto if something crazy happens to the udct.

 

[Dconnor]

I got the MVP for that reason. Originally I thought it would be too bulky, but then I'm carrying around multiple batteries, Evods, Protanks etc. Now I take my MVP, have a charger at home, work, and in truck (go through that drawer of old chargers, I bet you have some in there that will charge it). Now I carry the MVP, 2 protanks with juice, and off I go.

 

[armoredpig]

I always keep an eGo complete with a tank of another flavor as backup. Whether I'm out with an APV or an eGo, theres always an eGo for backup

 

[jrs99]

...and it happened! I ran out of work this afternoon to get my daughter to soccer practice. About 10 minutes down the road it hits me "oh $*#$ my charger and 2 spare 18490's are still plugged in under my desk. Frak!!! (I did call someone to unplug them)
So crap, check the battery on the Provi...3.9v...eh ok gotta conserve. Sadly the Provi/ZAP combo has become so much my favorite that I can not stand to be without it. I've got an MVP with some BCC gear and the IGO (for some reason the Nimbus will not fire on the MVP). The ZAP doesn't vape as well on the MVP for some reason so bleh!
I've got extras of most everything but I only have one charger. Guess I know what I'm buying come payday >.<

This is the kit that travels everywhere with me.

That would be a vamo, a protank2, an extra vamo, an extra protank2, 3x 18650 batts, a big bottle of my favorite MBV Double Apple juice, a little bottle for dumping out the dark stuff, and in the little black bag on the right is extra heads and protank bases. Backups for my backups as they say
