its that time of year again when i ask for suggestions on what gear to take.... this year make it interesting in that i need it to last me for 2 days!!!

the P.O.A

carry a mod with a tank and some juice, zero chance of getting out and back to the car to swap batteries. clock in on friday afternoon... crawl out on sat evening :)

current gear selection :

istick 50w (this has the 3000mah 18650 battery upgrade)
mutation x tank
20ml bombies bottle (soft with a needle nib)
2 slivers of cotton bacon v2 pre trimmed to perfection to fit on the deck

im interested in what others opinions are (in terms of the mod and tank options)

heres a link to my thread i created for last years event, http://www.ecigssa.co.za/ultra-music-festival-vaping-prep.t8949/
 
im far to jealous to even respond here about what you should take. My wife slapped with with a nope and then rubbed some NopeSalt in the wound. I almost had her though - she was like so close to letting me go. Dammit you are one helluva lucky man - njoy bro.
 
2 or 3 pen style devices IMO

Kanger ST Nano/Mini
iJust2

Pro's: light weight, cheap (hence if lost during the unpreventable jumping up and down, no real feel of regret) and low juice consumption

its my bachelors party , lol
 
If you have a mod with onboard usb charging, is it not viable to take a powerbank for charging?
Then perhaps a small solar panel for charging during the day is another JamesBond option.

my issue with this is power delivery. i wont enjoy the vape at the lower power

the istick is disposable and lightweight (in terms of a dual 18650)
 
I couldn't recommend here, I would be happy with my subtank and subox @1ohm 18W to last me that amount of time. But I have a feeling that wouldn't cut it for you shaun.

Come on be a tourist and rock a moon bag Haha .
Space for any mod + spare batteries for those 100+ watt vapes just to freak out the people :D

get a backpack bro - get one of those super bright colored ones, it will blend with the rave scene :)...

but then il land up taking a rolo with a 6 bay charger, 12 batteries, 2 tanks and 2 drippers, 4 bottles of juice, 2 spools of wire, 1 pack of cotton, 2 screw drivers, flush cutters, ceramic tweezers.....

If you had a reo, I would recommend a reo with some batteries and a spare rda already wicked and ready to be primed.
I have a small pouch that houses 3 18650, 1 spare cyclone, extra cotton just in case, and 3 reo bottles (6ml per bottle).
On a normal day 6ml in a reo is enough but after a few drinks I use 12ml easily.

To be safe for 2 days with excessive drinking I would go with 5 batteries and 3 bottles with an extra 30ml bottle and the spare atty going atty about 2.5 bottle per atty.

My planned kit for the day :

Vaporshark DNA 200
Cthulu V2
Petri RDA
30ml Unicorn Bottle
Power bank + USB cable
 
I went away for the weekend and tried keeping things simple. Evic vtc mini, 3 spare batteries, and a simple ijust2 tank with a spare coil JUST IN CASE. The reason I went with a commercial coil tank was because with anything rebuildable, you'd have to take a build set with just in case something breaks/fires in your pocket/coils short or whatever. And I didn't wanna take extra cotton or wire or anything with. So the humble Ijust2 tank at 55w with 30ml of juice was perfect for my weekend. If anything had gone wrong, my spare coil would have been there just to screw in and Vape on

I don't think any device will last more than 10-12 hours running at 40W when mixed with drinking and dancing. Especially lots of drinking

You are going to have to carry a spare battery and small unicorn juice bottle (30ml).

I would suggest a subbox, a spare coil, a unicorn juice bottle and a spare battery.
Don't take a joose that is tasty, take something that satisfies the cravings only. If it is tasty, you will vape it all in one go.

Usually a strong minty juice satisfies my cravings and I won't chain vape it.

i has 2 of those !

the reo does seem like a good idea as a semi-indestructible mod in-case if falls, but the battery sag is my biggest issue.

really dont want to be carrying a bunch of 18650s around with me. the idea is car keys, bottle of juice and a mod.

just tried an ijust2 tank now at 35w and while it was decent, the flavour wasnt anywhere near that of a rebuildable tank

Agreed. It'll never come close to any of our rebuildables, especially coz we know how to build. But it does the job for when you need it

il consider a unicorn bottle tonight. my plan was to fill the tank and then carry the 20ml bottle in my ticky pocket of my jeans.

ive been testing the istick this past week and have gotten fairly decent battery life out of it. i have a feeling it should get me through
