We'll I just got home today from Christmas holidays with the family. I had a great time and got lots of cool stuff. One of the best things Santa brought me was on of these:

(not my pic but I got the same one)

It's the ultimate PCC! Now I can go weeks off the grid and vape the whole time. With it's 28 AH battery I can charge my ego like 30 times before it ever runs out of power! (maybe more, anyone know anything about electricity?)

Also my vaping was completely accepted by everyone at all 3 households that I visited throughout the holidays. And in many cases I was quite envied as all the smokers had to dress up and head outside in the cold while I just vaped away at the kitchen table. However my mother almost chased me out of the house with a broom when she saw the first puff of "smoke" come out of my mouth christmas morning around the tree. I promptly explained myself :p. Anyways, I hope you guys all head a wonderful and safe Christmas.

Bravo for posting that!! I use one myself, but was a bit shy to suggest it as I thought it was like trying to drive a finishing nail with a sledge hammer.

For the math on how long that will last.. 28 ah = 28,000 mah. eGO fast chargers use 450 mah giving you 62 hours at full charging potential!! Also the battery is only drawing full current when it’s at its lowest charge, so I’d double that to 120 hours of charging. At 2 hours a charge that’s better than 60 charges. One charge a day, and you are off the grid for 2 months with that by my math.

They work great to inflate the air mattress from the car charger pump, without the car, by the way.

But you didn't say if it was threaded for a 510 or 901 atty??? :laugh:

LOL! If anyone plans on going this route I would HIGHLY reccomend using a usb car charger not the usb wall adapter. I say this for a couple reasons; 1) it would be very inefficient to convert the booster pack's internal battery power from 12 volts DC to 120 volts AC then back to 5 volts DC. 2) some small battery chargers can be damaged by the artificial AC current that these inverters put out. Mostly I got mine for when I'm going to be out hunting for over a week, and also to charge my 2 way radios.
