i have a brunton powerpack thing that will charge my phone 5 times from empty to full. i think it would charge a PV through a usb attachment. not sure how what size batteries, or how full it could charge them
Cabela's: Brunton Portable Power Packs

9,000mAhs for $110 plus shipping and eBay's got 12,000mAhs for $8 with shipping, That's Cabela's pricing for ya eventhough Cabela's is water resistant. However, that unit might not be Protected which might be the key to making this work. Doesn't tell nor the Amp output though.

Would a 20000 mAh PP fit into the windshield bag on my HD? If so, and it actually worked, this may be a good thing for my road trips. A 20000 mAh PP and a Provari battery-less straight PT would be a hell of a lot better than dragging out my APV when I'm going down the road.

They usually show the dimensions. But I'd hate to have a catastrophic battery mishap while riding a Harley. A little solar panel attached to the handlebars or a solar hat/backpack would be sweet if it's sunny and actually works (correct Amp output, protected or not, IDK).

Hey folks, P .......o here with the 15 dollar 20 thousand mah passthrough mod from frank fennel on ecf (actually stole the idea form link in OP). What can I say? This is my go-to vape and I threw everything else away.
Just kidding, Busardo's one of the best reviewers. He should add the Ads everyone skips anyway to his videos so he can get paid per view, some youtubers make like 100 grand a year off it.

Look..and I'm not bashing here ..far from it. If you want a pass through get an ego. The standard charger is a standard usb for egos and all other pass through's ....and guess what. Even my big battery home charger came with a 12v cig lighter for the car. And all cell phone chargers these days run a standard mini or micro USB cable and they plug in the lighter. So with that said. I can't fathom the reason for the set up you describe. Any one needing a pass through has one and a way to run it, we are surrounded by a plethora of avail charging or pass through ports these days no matter where we are. Unless maybe your on a hunting trip or dry camping. As far as traveling, well I covered that. Charging anything you have is covered, on the road or at home pass throughs included. And a cigarette lighter is easily installed on a Harley as well a lot of them come with lighters already ..so do get me wrong, its a great idea, that I don't see a purpose for. But gadget hounds love toys ..so I wish you luck.

I guess all the tech heads are at Vapefest showing off their soda can MODs and dual 18650 Extended Vamos but the skeptics are here bashing the thread hoping it won't work. Just kidding, I know vapefest's more than that.

The "Tech Heads" are in the modder's forum. Once a mod decides to move this there (or once you contact a mod requesting such a move), you will probably get better answers while receiving even more ridicule for your thread title. If you really wanted help, the thread title would say "20,000 mAh passthrough, workable?"

Personally, a 18650 3400 mAh battery is enough to last me almost two days of chain vaping, and I would be surprised if someone could realistically run it down in a day. That seemed to be the reason you were pursuing this in the first place. My advice to you would be to get a higher mAh rated battery like this one, and not have to carry around a 20,000 mAh power pack.

Batteries : AW Protected 18650 3400 mAh

You might as well resign yourself to the bashing.

I really don't have any issues with my 18650's working all day long and into the next day and they are just 2600 mah. Why would I want to deal with a cord and/or some bulky battery in my pocket?

It might give some girls the wrong idea...it could give some the right idea for the wrong reason.

Is that a ProVari in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?

Too hot to handle, too cold to hold, they're called the Ghostbusters and they're in control. Had 'em throwin' a party for a bunch a' children, while all the while the slime was under the building! So they packed up their group, got a grip, came equipped! Grabbed their proton packs off their back and they split! Found about Vigo, the master of evil! Try to battle my boys? That's not legal!!!!"

Ok, here's the plot. It would've worked waaaaay better if had come out before December 21, 2012.

Modern Day New York. The Ghostsbusters are old. There aren't a lot of ghosts anymore. Business is slacking. But then something happens: ghosts start showing up everywhere. It all seems to coalesce with the Mayan doomsday prophecy.

The Ghostbusters go in on a routine mission, but get their butts handed to them. They realize they're just too old these days, so they decide to hire and train a new team of Ghostbusters.

The new team would consist of Vince Vaughn, Dave Chappelle, Jack Black, and Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite). I'm thinking Will Farrell, Steve Carell, and Stephen Colbert could do side-roles or cameos.

Ok, so, they train and equip this new team with modernized ghost gadgets, a new Ecto-1, etc. Ecto-2 possibly? LOL. The team goes on its first mission (which has something to do with the Mayan prophecy), fail miserably, and get captured or something akin.

The old Ghostbusters learn of this. What to do, what to do? They don their old, aged, possibly no-longer-working gear, bust out the old Ecto-1, and go out to rescue the noobs.

There would be ghostbusting and hi-jinks along the way, but the finale would be both teams joining together to defeat the Mayan god of death. Apocalypse averted!

But since we all lived through the Mayan doomsday, it wouldn't work as well. :-(
