I want this, but do I have to order it from China?

I sincerely hope I don't get another infraction for this post, but I didn't know if I should post it in the APV or the Ego subforums, so I posted it here. If a mod has to move it, I understand. I don't want another infraction...

I want this to replace my Kgo VV, because the new Super eGo VV's now come with that stupid rubber button ring that the Kgo VV came with (dumbest. button. ever.) EGO VV ( Variable Voltage) (3-6) V Electronic Cigarette Stainless Steel clor I only want it for the battery and the charger itself, I couldn't care less about the clearo. But after reading the item description online, the grammer is atrocious and it's leading me to believe this vendor is in China. I have nothing against ordering anything from China, I know it's where all our stuff comes from anyway, I just don't want to have to wait an insane amount of time waiting for my little package to cross an entire continent and an ocean.

Anybody seen this page, or know anything more about it? I cannot seem to find a super ego vv (my coworker has one, it has the clicky button like other egos, and the "+" and "-" buttons are metal buttons, not rubber ones. I can't find one like that ANYWHERE.)

Is a VV pass through a good idea?

I don't know. Is it? I thought my charger cable was dead, but I fiddled with the battery (wiggling, that was about it) and got the Kgo to charge. Whew! This whole "resurrecting" thing in the vaping world is hit or miss, and sometimes things fail catastrophically, but they're a lot like exes. I won't explain further. ;-)

This isn't the same model cedric linked to, but it addresses my concerns about a VV passthrough. Variable voltage 510/eGo USB passthrough "...This USB passthrough is best powered by our 2 Amp AC to USB wall adapter or our car cigarette lighter to USB adapter." Ummm...I think I'll skip this idea.

If I read the OP correctly they are looking for the eGo 14500 VV battery, not a passthrough.....I got one from ConstantVapor, but they were a limited supply. Its an eGo VV battery housing that has an accessible rechargeable li-ion battery in it, and a digital voltage meter that does a pretty good job with keeping the voltage true.

The very first problem with the link you posted is it says its 1100Mh
then 2 inches below that it says 900Mh.

6 month warranty but your not even sure what they will send you, and the batts w lcd screens are cool......for about 9 seconds. you end up realizing its wasted space for nothing.

You know that in some cases, you can remove the rubber ring and insert an actual button like on an ego?

Yes, and I'm sure I could learn it if I was there actually watching someone do it, but I'm wary of messing with these kinds of things myself, even after watching youtube videos. If I did the wrong thing out of ignorance and destroyed my device, I'd be super annoyed. And when I have no one else to get annoyed at but myself, it makes it 10x worse. ;-)
