Cool USB Battery Pack

[Brian S]

I had the idea to look for a AA battery pack that will accept a USB plug so that I could use Cash's new USB adapter anywhere. Here is what I found.

This one is a bit pricey but really cool since it has a built in flashlight and an extension cord for the USB plug. I can put it in my pocket, plug my e-cig in and I should be good for at least a day.

I hope yours works with the alkaline batteries because I would like to find one that works without rechargeable batts. I have one similar but doesn't seem to be enough power from it

Let us know!

That one looks really nice too. I like that it comes with a carger and car adapter.

I don't know why you don't like rechargeable batteries. I'm using 4 x AA rechargeable 2500mAh NimH batteries and they last a week at a time so I don't have to recharge very often and it's cheaper in the long run. Alkaline batteries won't give the power to drive the atomiser properly.

The only reason I don't like rechargeable batteries is because I specifically purchased the usb ecig so I wouldn't have to charge batteries! lol

I tried to use the usb car adapter so I when I drive for 2 or 3 hours at a time, I don't have to worry about batts. I also got one for work so I don't ever have to worry about a batt dying on me there. As you might have seen from my other posts, neither of these have worked for me yet.

If all else fails, I will resort to the rechargeables but honestly, I just hate dickin' around with all these batteries.

You may be right that the alkalines will not give it enough power. I may end up resorting to the recharges in the end. I saw a 4AA 2500 mah charger at walmart last week. That is probably what I would get too.

So where is a link to what you use. I've nothing against rechargables that last a day.

I saw that one but rejected it because of some of the negative reviews. Can't gripe about the price though. I just figure since a USB adapter for an e-cig runs about $25 I might as well spend about the same for a battery pack.
