Note - USB passthroughs with a built in real battery only need the same charger a battery needs - they are just charging a battery while you vape the battery. But direct passthroughs with no real battery (just a hollow handle that looks like a battery) - those need 5v 2amp (2000mA) all for themselves (not a PC USB - can damage PC, not a battery charger USB to AC)

+1.

On a related note, if you've ordered from Cignot, the 510 passthrough she sells is made by Joye, has a battery of it's own that's 3.7v instead of 3.2, and I actually went a couple of weeks on one of these alone when I was first starting out. Even though it's called a "passthrough", technically it's a "sit-&-go"... you can unplug it from the USB port and still have an hour or so of vaping before the internal battery dies. Plug it back in & it'll be charging while you're using it.
