Ego t charger????

[theoneuafter]

I just got my Ego t today that I ordered from mvs. The usb charger that came with it says it cannot be used to charge reg 510 batts or megas. However the charger is the EXACT same one that came with my Ego t.
So ya, I'm confused now lol

Any ideas?

My ego charger output is 4.2 volts at 420 mA.
Regular 510 charger is 4.2 volts at 100 mA

My eGo/Riva charger cord is 4.2 volts at 420 mA
but my Joye 510 charger cord (for 180 mAh batteries) is 4.2 volts at 150 mA

If I use a 2 amp AC or DC adapter with either cord, they charge really fast.

Oh, I see the difference, lol I need some sleep! Sorry for the mishap.
Although it says not to use it for the 510,
Wouldnt it just charge it faster? Im assuming it might overcharge or overheat the battery?

The cord (not the adapter that plugs into the wall) for your Ego-T is too powerful for the mAh on regular 510 batteries. I'm sure I will say this wrong, but the cord regulates how much power is given to the battery.

I asked a bunch of dumb questions about this stuff a while ago, and then labeled all my cords.

Bottom line is the cords that come with batteries have to be used for those batteries.

you can use a regular 510 charger for an ego,but it will take a long time to charge. But using an ego charger on a regular 510 battery will very likely damage said 510 battery.
