510 PCC. Smart or not?!

[Kent C]

I just got my 510 today. Is this really true? That's very unfortunate, since the PCC is the only charger that came with it. Does this mean the only way to charge the batteries is to charge the PCC and then use it to charge the batteries?

Also, maybe I got a flaky battery or two, but I seem to kill the batteries quicker than I can charge them, which is pretty frustrating. I guess I'll order that 5-battery charger I saw somewhere.

Better to get a 5 pack of the mega batts but I got both :-)

As far as the charging in the PCC, it isn't the case in my experience - you can charge both the ecig batt and the charger at the same time - sure it will take a bit longer but I've done it.

Oh yes, I ordered the 5 pack of batteries with the 510. Been using the 801 for a week now, so I know the basic drill by now

Of course, 5 batteries doesn't do a whole lot of good when the battery dies before the next one is charged... I've been flipping between two batteries all day today.

Oh well. I ordered the 5-way charger and a USB passthrough. That should do the trick.

Did you miss the 'mega' part on the 5 pack? If you're going through a mega before the next one is charged then you're going to have to go to a mod.

Oh. Heh. Yes, I did miss the "mega" bit. I'll see how it goes with the 5-way charger and passthrough... that might be good enough.

I was looking at some of the bigger battery options earlier today - some of them are interesting, but I'd rather not end up with a huge PV the size of a hot dog.

That's one of benefits of the mega - a bit longer, true but same diameter and 2x batt life before recharge. I've changed over totally at home. Still have reg. batts for going out because I like the smaller case that I have to carry them where the megas are just too long - I found a "custom fit" case for the 510 eariler. Case logic - the Widow sells them:

Thank you Kent C!

Sorry, one more thing. Do regular 510 attys work with those mega batts?

I think the 5-way charger is available in a few places, but I ordered it from totallywicked-eliquid.com.

A mega battery is a bigger (longer in this case, apparently) battery that lasts longer.
