found one in the US MadVapes 5 Volt 510 Manual USB Passthrough, pretty sure you can't get one here.. not for this price anyway.
I have the mad vapes one and I've been quite happy with it. My only complaint is that the black paint has started flaking off from the unit; but it serves me right for using it so much!
For it to work the same as a battery at 5 volts you would have to draw 3 amps from your USB port. Not going to happen, your limiting factor is your computer or power source itself.
The whole point of the battery in-line passthroughs was to act as a buffer/capacitor to make up for the limitation of the USB power supply. To remove the battery to try and get 5 volts is a step in the wrong direction.

You would need to know the power output of your USB ports on your computer, but 99% of them will not put out enough current, USB ports were never designed as high power power source. It is not necessarily plug and play. You could possibly find a USB output wall adaptor that puts out better than 3 amps, which would provide you with the full potential of 5 volt vaping.
Yup!
meh...
The intent of the in line batt was two fold:
- protect the PC USB port, as you were vaping from the batt and not the USB port, preventing an over current situation; and
- recharge the 10440 while you were vaping at the PC. The PT was a plus in the days of standard batts of 180mAh or so. It's days are numbered
What CS is stating.
Unless you are plugged into the wall, you are not going to get 5V vaping out of a PT, direct or otherwise. Where they are useful is watching the tube, if plugged into the wall
or at your PC, once again if you are plugged into the wall or a USB hub capable of producing 2A or better. They exist but they are hard to find. As previously stated, the PT will become extinct before long...
Wanted to try it to see if i'd like 5v mods.. Changed my mind anyway and i'm just gunna get an Ali'l when it's available.
Comes from
Welcome to R&R Manufacturing - Handcrafted Battery Box Mods

Not sure what it stands for :/

The link does not provide information about the Ali'i or what it is for that matter. Do you have another link?

Yea it will be on his site tomorrow afternoon for preorders.. I think the only place your going to get any info is that thread. I think there are a view videos out there but I havent seen them.
Apparently its just like the Journeyman, only thing changed is the looks of the box. If you go to page 15 of that thread he has pictures.

It is the name of the device...Like Chuck, Little Sister, Bartleby, etc...at least that's what I think...
Ali'i
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aliʻi is a word in the Polynesian language denoting chiefly status[1] in Hawai'i and the Samoa Islands. A similar word with the same concept is found in other Polynesiann societies. In the Cook Islands, an ariki is a high chief and the House of Ariki is a parliamentary house (with very limited power). In New Zealand a Māori ariki held a rank of nobility and the Maori monarch held the title Te Arikinui (Great Chief) similar to Ke Aliʻi Nui in Hawaiian. In Tokelau, the term aliki denotes a chief, on Easter Island a noble was ariki and in Tahiti the term is ari'i.
In Samoa, ali'i is a chiefly rank in the fa'amatai system which lies at the heart of the culture's socio-political organisation[2] and similar to the traditional system in Hawai'i.
