Last night I decided to walk to the store. I figured the exercise would be good. I took with me my trusty Gen 3-300 with Prince rba. I love this mod. It was my first real mod purchased 3 years ago. I use it every day. I was walking home on a dark section of the sidewalk mod in my right hand. Well someone discarded a metal ring about 16 inches in diameter. I did not see it. Next thing I know I am off balance and falling. Some how the ring found it's way around both my ankles. I realised I was going down and there was nothing I could do to stop it. I do not know how I processed so much information so quickly. First impulse was to put out my hands and protect my face. But...if I did that I would have to drop my mod and risk breaking it. No that's unacceptable. I decided to take the hit. I put out my left hand and held tight on my right. Good news it was not too bad and I did not lose hold of my mod. It was painfull however. I got raspberries on both knees and on my chin from it striking the pavement. Also the top of my right hand from holding my vape. I got home bloody and bruised but my vape was just fine. What would you do to protect a favorite vape rig?
