    deewal, I just got my battery charged usb port and tried 4AA batteries in it and it really didn't work very well. But on another thread about it, I was told to use rechargeable nimh batteries with it as they are stronger. I'm looking into that now.

    As you, I love mine too!

    BTW....PeteMcArthur had one of these and was using the same portable usb port as I. I got mine from ebay; he's in Scotland too but I don't know where he got his from. He's the one who told me about the rechargeable bats for it.

    Yeah your right.The rechargeable batteries are the ones to get. Panasonic make good ones at a reasonable price. You got to remember everything we buy in Britain is about twice to three times more expensive than it is for you. We are taxed to the hilt.
    I'm actually loving this thing now. Makes things much easier as i'm at my computer most of the time.
    I'd really like to try the usb DSE901 now but i think i'll see if i can get enough Brits together and buy a few so the Shipping charge can be shared.
    Having said that the money i'm saving by not buying Cigarettes leaves me able to afford it.
    The Cigs i used to smoke are now £5.60 a pack and i was smoking 30+ a day

    Speaks volumes for for Royal Mail.
    The usb DSE901 is Mini e-cigarette USB Battery: e-cigarette usb edapter and is the same price $10.3 (£6.90 ?)
    There's plenty of power from it and no more having 3 batteries charging constantly. When the smoke gets less it's just a matter of putting in a New cart. Another bonus is that i don't think it goes through the dreaded "self clean (destruct) cycle". I had to pay about $22 shipping but i was at the point where i was going to have to buy a couple of new ordinary batteries anyway which would have cost almost the same in the UK.
    Plenty of length on the usb cable, plenty of vapour constantly'cause it don't run down
    The fact that it constantly gives the same power really shows up the health of your Atomisers. Some of my Atomisers that have been through the self destruct cycle and then been cleaned (by me)just don't work or hardly work. So now i know which of my atomisers have life left in them and which i can bin.
    Also if i want to i can attach it to a USB Battery Pack so i could take it out with me.
    I hope UK sellers will start selling these as they are very very useful.
    Obviously don't know the lifespan yet but i would suggest that if you want to buy them from China buy a lot of stuff so that it makes the shipping go further as it's done by weight.
    Overall Score
    Battery Excellent

    Supplier Excellent
    Parcelforce UK Booooo...sssssssssss

    deewal

    good to know it works! i have a penstyle and 901 -usb adapter on order.
    this will hopefully rest my batteries when i'm home,was too lazy to make one myself...
    also got me a wall to usb,and car to usb adapter from ebay.....i almost feel like robocop...

    22 shipping for me too, EMS to Greece,
    i thought EMS is all the way to your door worldwide,
    why parcelforce in between??

    £5.60 a pack??
    that explains why i see post like "i have saved XX much money"
    cause here in Greece we pay 2 - 3.50 euro for a pack,
    and putting everything together parts and liquid per week,
    for a 2 pack/day guy like me it is not cheaper to vape....
    ...maybe just healthier...

    parapo,

    I ordered the usb car charger and wall charger from ebay ($2 a piece, included shipping). Neither of them provided enough juice to fully power my usb e-cig from bestecig.com; it only worked well directly plugged into my laptop.

    I will be getting rechargeable batteries for my battery powered usb port this week; others have said this worked for them as a way to power the ecig when not at a computer.

    If your car and wall charger work, I hope you post here. Maybe your brand will work then I'll know what to try!

    Default USB charger

    We also have a USB charger:
    rutoo.eu/en/rutoo-usb-charger.html

    The difference between our USB charger and the others is that you have to screw up the battery

    Rutoo,

    Your product is an ecig charger? The ones they are talking about here are usb ecigs that you smoke right off the computer (or some usb port). Sorry for the confusion.

    Well guys, I'm going to try a little experiment. I should get my usb cigar Wed. I am going to see how powerful it is on my laptop, usb car charger and my wall charger. If it works well on all 3, then I know the juice problem has to be with my usb e-cig. If it works fine on the laptop and not on the others, then I know it's a problem with all of them not getting enough power from those adapters.

    Then I'm going to try my usb cig from David. When I get it, I will do the same and try it in all the ports. I'll tell ya, I'm going to get to the bottom of this yet!

    If I find they are all not working in the other ports because of low current, then I'm going to try the rechargeable batteries. Something's bound to work here!

    I use two USB batts and plug into both ports, and the huge vapour buried my head.

    received my usb adapters from best-ecig, 901 and penstyle.
    both work great on my PC.
    the wall and car to USB adapters aren't here yet, stay tuned.

    check your adapters,there must be the output printed somewhere.
    a typical USB port provide 500mah max.
