I don't post here as much as I should but I've had such crappy luck this week. First I discovered the reason you shouldn't let your eGo fast charger dangle off your laptop...after a year of tugging it finally gives way. And then when all your favourite store has is the plug in fast charger with no cord, you should really protect it from being knocked by your dog and then you are left with no way to charge your pretty eGo batteries. And then you thank your resourcefulness at buying a couple of regular batts...which is quickly becoming irritating. I hope the corded chargers come in stock soon. Please tell me I'm not the only one who's made stupid mistakes.:oops:

You can splice wires no? Only 4 pins in a USB cable:

Red = Power 5V
White = Data +/- (no use here)
Green = Data +/- (no use here)
Black = Ground

The little box part where you screw the battery regulates the current output so if its just the wire end it makes no difference if you change it. Whatever you do don't go buy a pack of smokes.

EDIT: Is this what you are looking for? eGo USB Rapid USB Charger

Thanks guys. I do have my itty bitty 510's to get me through...or I did until I lost one. I bought a pack of smokes to get me through this bit. I am now down to one 510. It's so frustrating because I've got 2 perfect eGo's sitting on my counter waiting for a charge. I have never felt so STUPID, I mean really, I should've seen this coming. So learn from me...have a couple of batts with charger (DON"T LOSE YOUR SPARE), spare charger, spare mini batts of whatever brand you use. And a vial of liquid, just in case.

Everybody on this forum has mindlessly jacked up some part of their set up, at one time or another I am sure. Here are my stupidest mistakes:

1) I decided to refill my carto while still attached to a auto battery, which I KNOW is a No No, but I did it anyway, over filled the cart and killed my BRAND NEW 1 DAY OLD Ego stainless steel automatic battery

2) I purchased DIY Bacon flavoring, mixed it and vaped it ... then had to throw out the atty I tested it in because there was noooooo way to get that rank pork taste out ... so really, what was I thinking? I had uncontrollable shivers for the rest of the day because it was genuinely that bad, and I shoulda known better.

Live and learn and don't be so hard on yourself, but yeah, I can understand your frustration hun.
