    That way your cordless but you could just use any USB cable to plug into it to charge the battery.

    There is definitely room for a short cord to stick out with a female USB port...


    As far as putting in a female plug, you would need to use that Mini USB port you gave the part number for for sure, and it would be a tight fit...

    What I had to do to give me room for the mouse button was take a pair of needle nose pliers and break off the screw post in the bottom of the plastic box... I actually used a small screw driver (think glasses repair kit small) to make the hole in the screw post go all the way through, that way I had a start for my switch hole.

    Since the other side just had a hole for where you put in the screw, there might be room enough for the female mini usb port, but I didnt have a multimeter to see which pin was positive and which one was negative, so I didnt bother adding one...

    The pictures I posted in the first post show exactly how to wire it for what you are wanting, you just have to look closely...

    The Blue and Dark Gray go to the battery terminals to charge the battery..

    The Light Gray and Thin Red wires to the switch/atomizer

    The Thick Red (that is cut off short) and Black(very hard to see, but its sorta under the Light Gray/Dark Gray wires) go from the USB adapter to the Circuit board...

    The power from the USB comes into the Circuit board, from the circuit board (which is a limiter for charging the battery) the Blue and Dark Gray wires go to the Positive and Negative terminals for the battery (it is labeled on the circuit board). Also soldered to the terminals for the battery is the Light Gray and Thin Red wires that go to the atomizer...

    all you would need to do is wire up the circuit board with your female plug (should be easy, as Ive never seen a USB cable with incorrectly labeled wires (red = power, black = negative, green and white = data in and out)

    good luck
