Guys, you're confusing mA with mAh again. On the USB passthrough issue, a battery pack or car charger for a passthrough has to have a rated output of at least 1000 mA, or 1A (that's 1000 milliamps, or 1 amp).

The mAh figure (milliamp hours) is what you look for in how long a battery is expected to last on a charge. So for example, the little batteries in most ecigs are rated at 150 or 200 mAh, while the batteries used in the SD are rated at say 850 or 1000 mAh, meaning they will last longer.

I currently have one on order so I cant tell you first hand what I think is the better of the 2.

What I like about the ECigar is the HUGE Carts they have and the bigger longer lasting battery.
1st: Thanks everyone for the in-put.

2nd: I will be getting a car charger/adapter for mine, not a usb.

666JackTheKnife666, Thanks for the info, Although I am not a trucker (I do appreciate the job they do) & they have helped me in a few situations, I do spend many hours on the road as well as sitting & waiting & I have to pay close attention to my surroundings. There are times when I need to "Get down to business" & will not have the time or security to **** with my Ecig.

Thanks every one I am just about ready to take the "plunge"

I was a heavy smoker and recommend a penstyle.

Agree I'm happy with the USB passthrough battery and adaptor to use in car cigarette lighter.

Also happy with portable USB rechargeable battery pack which also recharges from a car cigarette lighter (to use with the USB passthrough battery).

Best wishes to you!
