E power charging issues

[the_vape_nerd]

So about 3 months ago, I bought an E power. I like the device, get a good 10 hours of use per charge and it works very well. The one problem is the charger that is provided. This is one of those spring loaded chargers that seems to break pretty easily. I'm on my third one in 3 months.

Is there some better charging alternative? I've seen other multi sized battery chargers though I haven't bought one. The e power uses a 14650 battery (1050 mah). Would getting one of these work?

I'm considering chucking the whole thing and just buying an eGo because as I undestand it, those can be usb charged? Is that right?

I have the Trustfire TR-01. I've used it with the 18350, 18650, 14500, 14650.

The trustfire is a pretty good charger, and will charge any of my 3.7v bats

Thanks guys. Will have to look into those.

I'm using the trustfire TR-03. I wanted the 4 bay charger instead of 2.

Had I known about the TR-003 I would have totally gone with that.

Ultrafire WF-139 I'd shy away from based on reviews of thin metal tabs.

The Tenergy TN270 is worth looking at, looks identical to the TR-001 though.

I'm not aware of dedicated 14650 nor 18650 chargers.
