I am asking "Santa" for a couple to play with. I got so excited, that I wanted to share!

cool, it has a LiPo battery in it. Should have any power demand issues. This would be interesting! Hmmmmmm.....

Depending on what you want to do, you should find out what the output is, how many mA's does it provide.

The stated 1000mah capacity would be more than adequate to recharge a cell phone with a 700mah battery inside, or partially recharge a phone with a larger 1000 to 1300mah battery inside. There are several of these "emergency chargers" available.

I've tried some. They would just fine for recharging usb battery devices. Even a pass thru with an inline battery. Recharging, not vaping from it. If cheap, get a few to play with.

I had that in my email too. I just figured it was not raed high enough to vape with but it would, like Rocketman said, probably charge a battery.

Dang, I thought an amp would be sufficient to use a straight passthrough from. grumble grumble.... back to the drawing board! Thanks for the info!

 

[Rocketman]

Don't be that disappointed, it would still have a use.
My guess is it would be a great vape-extender for a USB eGO.
Those are what 600mah? This could (maybe) more than double vapetime.

just a thought,
