KR808D-1 PCC question

[jennikj]

I got my PCC today, and I was wondering if I can use my outlet adapter to charge it or does it have to be charged on my USB on my computer?

Here is the info I have:

PCC:
Input: 4.5-6VDC
Output: DC 4.2V 200 mA

AC adapter:
Input: 100-200V~50/60Hz 0.1A MAX
Output: 4.7V ----- 0.08A


Thanks...I'm not very tech savvy, and I don't want to ruin anything!

.08 amps? What is that AC to USB for? My PCC's AC to USB is 500mA (same as a battery charger USB to AC) - wouldn't that be .5 amps (1/2 amp) and that's a lot more than .08 amp

try charging it on the PC's USB - PC USB is specced to provide 500mA - enough to charge a battery or PCC, not enough to run a PT

(unless I am being totally hardware dumb - I am a software geek)

i charge mine on the usb on the computer or with the lighter adapter in my car. my other chargers only have a screw in end for the batteries. the screw thing u see on ur pcc is for charging the batteries. so plug the usb in to the computer and soon u will be all chraged and ready to go.

I only use the usb on my laptop to charge the PCC, but I would imagine it would work with the car adapter or the wall plug. Might try this out!

My USB to AC adapter is the one that came with my KR8 starter kit to charge my batteries, and has been working fine for that...takes less than 2 hours for a battery to recharge. I did charge the PCC on my computer, but I was just curious about options because the cord on the PCC is so short. Thanks!

If it all came with your kit -- it will work!

Still, I would love for one of the battery guru's to chime in! My understanding is that both would be ok with the specifications of that pcc---but perhaps the outlet adapter would be a better choice. Take a look again -- maybe it is .8 not .08?

What I have heard don't charge pass thru on computer as many/some/perhaps older computer USB ports can't handle it and could mess up computer.

I'd suggest when you need to, charge the e cig battery on the computer and use the outlet for the PCC as it is a larger battery---as ut has to be to charge another battery a few times.
