Idea stolen from misterD external charger

[Ryan Toupal]

Ok, this is what I have...tell me if this is ok, please. I have the board from a 510 PCC hooked to a tabbed 18650 and the + and - to the batty connectors, the red light is on, will it go off when the batty is fully charged or will it keep trying to charge it? Is there another way to hook it up? Previously, I also used a multi meter, found a 4.2v connection but it won't fire my atty, not sure why??

How about you tell us if it's ok : )

did you try it?

I did and the red light is still on after all night, still red! Must not be the right charger to use. I'm looking into other alternatives.

OK, here's another one for ya...I turned a 2 batty charger into a 3.7 18650 mod but just noticed after 3 days that it hasn't been charging. Does anyone know if I need to do something different since it was supposed to charge 2 battys origionally? I simply removed one of them for room for a bottle of juice. Works great but now it's going dead! Any help would be appreciated.

That's kind of a cool idea actually.. I'm surprised it doesn't charge. You just connected the wires to the terminals with a switch and connector?

Seems like the vapor gods really don't want you to have easy charging, if that doesn't work!

Hey Storm I tried soldering it up to the + and - on my charger, it works well. The light goes green after a couple hours

Never got the PCC charger to work but i did get my other one with the charger that came in it. It's a 18650 so I charge it at night & use it all day.
