eleaf ISTICK charging

Have a eleaf ISTICK 30 for 5 months and going strong.
Would like to use a different/PROPOSED plug and car charger along with the eleaf 110v charging unit. I could plug into my car (did not get one at time of purchase) and create another charging station.

Using

ELEAF ISTICK 30 SUPPLIED:
Input: 100-240V 50-60hz.-100mA------Eleaf istick 30 USB 110V plug
Output: 5V___1000mA = 1 amp

PROPOSED USAGE WITH ELEAF ISTICK 30 for car and wall plug :

AC Adapter Model E00006
Input: 100-240 approx. 11w 50-60hz.
Output: 5.1v____2.1A

USB DC Car plug
Input: 12-24 Volt
Output: DC 5.0 V +/-5% max 2000 mA

Note: _2.1 A and 2000 mA

Will the 2.1 A and 2000 mA be a problem when charging the ELEAF ISTICK 30 ?
Can I use these two safely and not harm the ELEAF ISTICK 30?
If not why?

Off the hilt, possibly if you use passthrough.
I seem to recall my istick 20W had passthrough. I'm sure there is some finesse to designing a circuit that powers an atty partially using a charging path that delivers less power than the atty may require. I'm sure that finesse gets messier since the charging circuit _should be trying to power a battery that is now being drawn from while possibly receiving a partial charging voltage.
I can't imagine undervoltage by .1V being a problem, and I doubt it actually uses any more than 1A to charge the battery.
So my guess is it would work fine, IF you can trust the car adapter to output consistently at its rating and if you don't use passthrough while charging.
That said, a disproportionate number of "explosion" incidents seem to occur using car chargers (including mfr.) and especially car charger+passthrough.

The easier solution to me seems to get a second mod (another istick 30W if it's working great for you) and atty so you can charge them both using their normal chargers.

Either way I think you'll do fine, I mainly recommend against using a mod while charging it (passthrough) or using a mod/batteries straight off the charger.

Might want to check the voltage @ your intended port. Some vehicles vary, IIRC.

Pass through info golden. Thanks. Makes perfect sense.
I spent some time reading other threads regarding this issue. The best guess I can make, is that whomever made the mod, (Eleaf in this case) may or may not have allowed for protection of increased amp exposure.
I would like to think that possible over amperage protection was designed into the circuit board.

Regarding the car charger warning, here I can hold the unit and disconnect if the battery feels overly warm.
Using the wall unit, same precaution for the first 5-20 min. charge.

Have ordered/awaiting a second unit but would like to know if the subject chargers can be used (esp. car).

I was hoping to get a few more inputs to create a consensus.

Can do, thanks.

Looks like car charging is out. Too dangerous. Thanks.
