eGo USB Adapter? (No Battery... Straight off of USB)

[dekova]

My tanks work with the eGo battery, so please keep that in mind if making a recommendation.

Most of the vaping I do is at my PC. I'd like to find an adapter that let's me use the USB port directly so that I don't need a battery.

Has anyone made one of these?

Look for a pass through. They come with a USB cable. Oh, welcome to the forum and good luck!!

You want to get a pass-through for you battery. I'm guessing you have a 510mAh?
There are, my friend has one. It does depend on the vendor that your battery came from. Some are compatible with pass-through's, some aren't unless they're specially "pass-through batteries"

This one should do the trick, there are plenty others if you look around. eGo USB Wired Sealed Battery Charger

EDIT: I TOTALLY READ YOUR QUESTION WRONG. As far as I know, they have not made those yet. I may be wrong..your best bet is to get a 510mAh, which are cheap, for now..let me know if they do end up making/or have those. I would LOVE one.
Hope someone else can be more of a help!

The ones that doesnt have a battery require a 2A connection though. Not sure if your pc usb has 2A draws in it. It does work but doesnt produce as much vapor compared to the ones with battery passthrough

Liteciigusa and discountvapers has it for 12 dollars.

Yep. And they're cheap too.

Looks like this:



Do a Google for "ego variable voltage usb passthrough" and you'll come up with tons of links for vendors.

Oh yeah, they need a powered USB port and at a fairly high level of juice so I popped over to Amazon and got a 2 amp USB wall adapter. Like, oh, one like this: USB Wall Adapter.

Or if you have an iPad wall adapter, that'll work too. They're 2 amp adapters.

as others have stated, yes the usb passthrough does exist. do be careful if you see battery with passthrough compatible. The reason I say this is the KGO (EGO clone) vv first version says this but I learned it draws from the battery and recharges it at same time. Fir heavy use, the battery drained on meand began overheating. Never will I do that again. just get a regular passthrough and you will be fine. you can even use the car plug to operate it without any problems (person from my work place does that and only uses a small EGO battery when out and about.
