Default USB battery

I saw in a video review of the totallywicked platium DSE901 where she had a USB cable with a battery at the other end. you screw your atomizer onto it and plug it into your USB port and puff away without the need to recharge your other batteries. I looked up the site puresmoker.com which she said sells them but they don't have them listed. Anybody know where I can find one?

Sounds like a USB passthrough, not a battery. Search for that and you should be able to find suppliers easily enough.

The Janty Kissbox has such a USB cable with an in-line battery so you can use it with a USB port or unplug it and keep vaping. I have seen at least one other USB pass-through setup like that, but do not recall where. The only downside to this configuration is that you get the full volatage from the battery, not the USB port. It appears that the USB port recharges the battery, but the actual voltage to the atomizer comes from the battery. Why is this a problem? Well, if the battery only supplied 3.7 volts and a full-power USB port can provide 5 volts, you lose 1.3 volts of great joy.

You might also try MyVaporStore.com. Some members have found that the power in the PC/laptop usb port isn't sufficient to power the pass-through and may also hurt your computer. I would recommend getting a usb wall outlet adaptor with the right specs, of course. This one works well:
