tech help and advice please

[Kate]

Hi Mimi, welcome to the forum.

Don't worry about it, we post all sorts of off topic chit chat all over the place, at least you were talking about e-vapourisers.

I can't give you advice about your question I'm afraid, I'm not very good on electricals. You can start a new thread on the new members board though and I'm sure someone helpful will turn up.

there was a post around that listed usb battery packs but I forgot the title thread, wat it "I dont use batteries" or something along those lines?

Edit, beat Kate to posting a link whoooo

I don't use batteries anymore!

[Kate]

Ha, I've just come back to do that ... you stole my job

I'm not sure that is what Mimi was asking about though, did she mention something about a power board or something.

Hey tech peeps:

I am unable to start a new thread (I'm too new) and I have a question. Can I use this to power my 901 with a usb cord?

Urk - Can't post a url either, so - here it is..

newegg.com
product: 5 outlet 918 joule mini surge protector with USB charger
on sale for $9.99

Any point in purchasing this item??

mimi,

You can use this if you have a usb charger for you 901. Looks like you could plug this into the wall then plug the usb charger in and it will charge it for you.....rather than charging it directly off your computer, say. Looks like you could charge 2 at once....if that is what you are looking for.

But, be cautioned....it is not clear how many mah are needed to charge the 901. Well, I don't know that figure anyway...someone else might. So this might have enough power or not....I don't want to say for sure.

It takes a 1000 mah to power the ecig you smoke right off the computer but that is not the same thing as a charger.

Hope that wasn't too confusing

Yup, I'm confused. I thought this item would let me plug in my usb e-cig and then directly vape it. But, it's probably not a good idea anyway.....it'll get me nic OD'd! Think it's best for me to drop that idea....

Thanks, Kate for lessening my embarrassment for posting...um.....stupidly. That was kind of you!

This forum has been just delightful!! (Gawd, don't I sound Old?!?!) Sometimes it's just hard to 'chat' with peeps that are younger than my children..........sigh......

Sorry mimi, I thought you were talking about a usb battery charger. I went and looked at the specs. This would not be enough to power the usb passthrough ecig as each port is only 500 mah.

It would be designed to charge an ecig battery but again, I don't know if this has enough power for that or not.
