A rigger in Tacoma said something that made me stop using my phone for load charts

We were setting a 20-ton AC unit on a roof and I was about to pull up the chart on my phone. He just pointed at the paper chart in the cab and said, 'Batteries die, but that doesn't.' It was so simple, but now I always double-check with the physical copy first. Anyone else have a backup method they swear by?

Oh man, my buddy had his tablet just die mid-lift (total nightmare). @martinez.karen is right, you really can't argue with a paper backup.

Guess you can't argue with that kind of logic.
