Nice looking setup

I like seeing what everyone is using (in case you couldn't tell ). I guess sharing hardware pics comes naturally to a Cub guy on this forum

Here's a pic of the new setup next my old battery, the spinner batt worked great but when standing on end it was very top heavy and it constantly fell over.

Be careful there or you'll get addicted like I am

It's easy to spend a few bucks on a new battery, then since the battery can handle a more power-hungry tank you get a better tank. Next thing you know, you've got half a dozen tanks, numerous batteries, a shelf full of juice and you're on the lookout for the next addition to your collection!

The only reason I got a new batt is because the spinner kept falling over and it was driving me nuts, I think I'm going to give the spinner away to my wifes cousin since she still has the cheaper setup.

I agree, that thing falling over all the time makes me crazy too. I do like the looks of that short "stocky" battery looks like it will stand up much better.

I sure don't want to "get into" this thing like jimbob200521 though, that is just way further than I want this to go.

Continued success to you guys.

That's one of the biggest things that made me upgrade from my pen style battery like you did. I'd set it down on an end table, and it'd fall. On my desk at work? It'd fall. It got to the point where it'd drive me nuts!! But now that's not too much of an issue

Convinced the ol' lady to "let" me put up a shelf on "my" all of the house for my vape stuff. Notice the couple Cub pics I have hanging up, thought you guys would enjoy this

I've got a couple setups that aren't on the shelf so I'll have to gather all hands on deck

You guys are a hoot with all your apparatuses.
Sounds like a typical bunch of tractor freaks when they get together and discuss the latest and greatest improvements they've made to their equipment.
Whatever it takes, I give you guys a lot of credit for sticking with it. But.....how do you scale down to be "completely" smoke free when you're having all this fun?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
