Today I bought an Ovale (Janty rebranded) eGo USB pass-thru battery. At first i was trying to buy a standard 1000mAh battery, but was told through another customer (translating to English) that in Korea there were none, nor were there any 900aMh batteries. Only 850aMh batteries. The clerk showed me the 650aMh against the 850aMh battery and of course the latter was longer. At the same time he showed me a USB pass-through which was the same size as the supposed 850aMh battery. So I choose the USB battery for a marginal difference in price, about 5000w (~$ US 5).

But after reading now, I have discovered that Janty only makes a 650aMh USB pass-through battery. Has anyone even heard of a Janty 900aMh or 1000aMh USB battery?

Lastly, I noticed that on the standard battery pushing the white LED 5 times turns off the battery, however this is not the case with the USB battery. It appears to stay on all the time even when unplugged. Is this normal for the USB batteries?

I got my usb eGo battery from Heaven Gifts in China. It has a white light inside the button that only comes on when you press the button. afaik the 5 press lock standard battery is a newer model with an "off" mode feature. None of my standard 650mah eGo batteries have the 5 press lock feature.

So if your button light stays on all the time and your atty is getting power then the button must be broken.

Yes the LED only lights when I press the button, otherwise it is off. It is the 5 press lock feature that doesn't appear to turn off the battery, unlike my standard batteries only a few months old. Sounds like this is normal then for the USB battery. The USB battery only reads "eGo" unlike my newer batteries that read "eGo-T", so I guess its an older model. Thanks. Just a bit disappointed that it wasn't a 900aMh battery or this feature isn't included.
