Motorola Razr charger to charge your PCC - Page 2 - E-Cigarette Forum

lunaras · 11-19-2009, 07:12 PM

I have a bunch of usb to barrel-plug cables, USB wall warts, and usb car adapters that I have been using with no problems to charge my PCC. USB has a rather standardized output at 5v or so and usually 500 or 1000ma, so in general it should work, but it's always worth double checking.

I'd rather end up with a dead battery and being unable to charge it because my equipment isn't compatible then end up risking killing a battery and leaving me unable to vape until I get a new one.

Good point.
Arg. Why can't mail be instant... So ready for my PCC.

yeah I have so many cords of this type from past equipment Razr, 2 bluetooths, 2 cameras, Rizr(ztv), Rio (mp3) that I never have to worry about not having a way to charge my pcc. It was great having so many things that used the same cord when I used them all. Now most of it just sits in a box in the closet.

I would love to see the day all of our gadgets & vaping accoutrements can be charged on a powermat.

I use my Razr car charger as a PT for my Janty Stick while driving.

All usb /micro usb and plugs alike are the same round plugs can change in voltage

That may be a little different. The JS is made to run/charge off a USB port. The JS is just looking for a power source. A USB port is not a charger, but a regulated power supply. The JS itself will further regulate the voltage (should be 4.2V for Li-ons) and the mAs it's battery needs and know when to stop.

When I look at my Motorola 'charger' with the mini USB all I see and all it claims to be is an AC POWER SUPPLY that outputs 5V @ 550mA. Hard to tell if it's regulated though. By that I mean if you grab a typical wall wart and actually check the voltage they all seem to output at about 12V, regardless if they say 4V, 6V, 9V whatever.

An actual charger is a power supply + the necessary circuits to determine the correct mAs and voltage (no more than 4.2V for Li-ons), and when to quit.

Also works with my Blackberry (for all of us crackberry people)

Don't forget the PS3 controller chargers! Come to think of it, the USB passthrough would be perfect for long gaming sessions
