Need advice from 510 owners !!!

[CollegeVapor]

i dont mind the SE comments however i would still like to know wtf a passthrough is?? everyones telling me to get one and i have no idea what it is XD lol

 

[Syntax]

it is a E-cig that is powerd by a usb port so there is no battery well some have a battery but it will be your best friend just order one hehe

 

[CollegeVapor]

oic so then i can smoke @ home all i want (since im usually on my laptop anyway) and then when i go out i have two fully charged batteries... thats awesome!! ^_^

A passtrough is essentially a device that plugs into a USB port for power instead of using your PV battery. Computer powered vaping! The passthough does contain a battery itself, which I have assumed is to moderate current flow since I doubt the USB standard 50mA or so would ignite out vaporizors, but the battery can supply that and the 50mA from USB will keep that battery charged up between puffs. And as mentioned before, the passthough can be used as the PV battery in a pinch, just with a long wired attached to it.

you can also get a car adapter for usb so while on the go yummmmmmmmm

 

[CollegeVapor]

wow lol so with the right accessories i'll never have to worry about a dead batt again (which has been a pain in the a** the last 2 days XD)

Hey I'm brand new to vaping I just got my 510 today and the manual it came with says to let it charge for 8hrs the first time... my battery just died and idk if i can wait 8hrs before i smoke again XD does it really matter?? can i just wait for the light to go green and smoke or should i listen to the manual =/ lol idk i figured the best people to ask would be experienced 510 owners

Looks like you went ahead and started vaping but I will through my 2 cents in anyway I did do the 8 hr then 20 minute thing. My batterys last about an hour and a half to two hours and constant vaping. I am getting my PCC today in the mail ever hear about one of those? It will allow me to vape up to 6 times longer before I have to plug anything into a wall. which means 9 to 12 hours of vaping for me. Cant wait for the mail.

Couple of things. The blu has a mic activated auto switch, so it's not as good for "out on the go" because it will go off from loud music, wind, shaking... and although you've got a PCC for it, you'll drain batteries much more because the batteries will be activating when you don't even know it--even when charging in the PCC. I have a feeling you're going to want your 510 for everything and pretty much forget about the blu, but some people like it. Grab a PCC for the 510, or one of the big batt mods if you're not worried about it looking like/same size as a real cigarette.

If you get a passthrough, don't even bother with the cheapo ones with the thin wire and inline battery. Get the Puresmoker Passthrough. It costs more, but it runs at 5v (waaaayyyy more vapor and flavor than any standard battery/passthrough) and is super well-made. It's so worth the extra cost it's not even funny.


EDIT: Hey, just saw you're in Albany. Hmmm... CollegeVapor... SUNY?

haha thats kewl im from nyc but i obviously live up here in albany during the skewl year... gotta say i love... dollar slices & 2 dollar pitchers man thats college

 

[RKayne]

I don't want to be tied to this dam computer any more than I have to so I got a PCC with my 501 kit, always have a charge and it holds a couple carts too

 

[CollegeVapor]

yea but idk i gotta pick between a passthrough or a pcc (im low on cash just like every other college kid haha) so idk im gonna hafta put some deep thought into

 

[Applejackson]

haha thats kewl im from nyc but i obviously live up here in albany during the skewl year... gotta say i love... dollar slices & 2 dollar pitchers man thats college

LOL. Where you gettin' $2 pitchers? I don't venture up into the student ghetto there too much. The pizza up here is awful for the most part. Dunno how a NYC native can even eat it. I miss NYC dearly and now that I'm going to be out of work by the end of the month I'm looking to relocate back down there if possible. Got plenty of couches to crash on down there.


Also, if it's one or the other, get the PCC because you'll want something you can take with you and have batts charged all the time rather than something you can only use at you comp... unless you want to bring your laptop everywhere. Haha. The PCC is almost an absolute necessity with the 510 without carrying around 10 batteries all the time (which would cost more than the PCC and Passthrough put together).

Save for the Passthrough later.

[Applejackson]

You'll have to make your way down to center square where the ages are more mixed (too old for the college bars), but I'm up for a beer and a vape. Maybe you can try my Passthru if we can plug it in.

 

[CollegeVapor]

LOL. Yeah, that's not gonna fly down here. Everyone knows each other and if they don't, you get ID'd.

Just wait until the light turns green and you will be good to go. No need to wait the eight hours.
