Dh has blown 3 901 attys on the passthrough, without the Kensington. He's been doing fine with an 801 on the Kensington. I think he was getting the 901's too hot and burning them out. I've told him to let the atty cool a little between vapes. He was getting it too hot to hold.
Lucky, I have a myvaporstore 901 passthru and kensington..However, I havent totally laid down my analogs until I get my mod this weekend..So I'm probably not using it like you are...But, I have cut down the analogs alot and vape too...And I do notice it gets really hot..So when I'm vaping I keep my pilot going as well..Alternating each...
Now by next week I'll probably be vaping like a chimney thru the withdraws lol .. I'm going to keep up the alternating system..Hopefully I wont start blowing attys ( one of my attys actually came back to life with it)..I'll get back with you on it...
And no Gadget, the kensington does not charge your batteries..It IS a battery power pack..So you charge IT... It just last a whole lot longer and delivers a whole lot more power then your e- cig batteries..You use the passthru with it = saves time, money and the hassel of constantly recharging your e-cig batts..Some only use those for public use

I returned my Kensington today and I am purchasing a different one on a friend's recommendation and I am not using a 4075 on it and we'll see what happens.
I have charged my ecig E8 and E9 batteries with the kennsington with great success...There is also a Kensington K33197Us That will charge and run ANY pass through on the market
It does seem to be the people using 801s on these kensingtons aren't having any problems. I was using 4075's and they were toasting like turkeys every few days. Soooooooo I don't know if it was the 4075s on the kensington or what. They sure weren't toasting on regular batteries like they were with the passthrough. I bought a different power pack today and returned my kensington and when I get the new power pack I'll be using a best e cig atty on it and it's not a 4075 nor a 901 it's a knock off of those two and doesn't heat as hot, so let's see if this works out. I'll keep you all posted. But it does seem to be people using 801s aren't having problems.
The power pack I bought on ebay is this and the major difference between this one and the Kensington is that this one will last almost twice as long because it's 3000mah vs 1800 mah. But same output info.

I have been thinking my atts from bestecigs likes the 801/b112 pass thrugh from bestecig better than a regular bestecigs battery. I think the USB pt runs a little hotter and the atts don't get as much gunk on them. My acholol in my jar is cleaner than it was. I reuse my acholol till it turns med/dark brown. It is really when it stains my fingers I get new acholol.
Razor, forgive me for sounding thick here but I thought that if I plugged my Janty USB charger in it would charge a battery for me - no?
I don't know 100%, but I'm pretty sure with a USB charger you might be able to charge the batteries. You can certainly use it to boost you cell phone or iPod That's what it's advertised to do. I just don't know if you have to leave your cell or MP3 plugged in to get the power. The biggest use has been with the USB pass-through. No power drop off and lots of vapor for us.
I just went to Best Buy they show 4 kensington portable power packs in the store but nobody can find them. What a joke these guys are.
Bought one today. Way better than the batteries that came in the kit! Thank you. I would have never figured it out on my own.
Even though the shipping is free, you are still going to pay your local sales tax. You can get one for the same price and have it tomorrow if you pick it up locally.
I work a few blocks away from a best buy but I'm too lazy to drive to it. 
I use my passthrus at work (connect them to my mac). I would only be using the powerpack while driving really.
