Here they are, looks like they have a cell phone internal batt possibly? At least they don't have that blasted small/non retractable USB plug. They also have an internal batt indicator and can charge two at the same time.

Now for them to arrive in the USA...

**Edit: Some pics show two charging at once and others one w/ one assembled. I also notice the V4L logo on some, so I'm sure it's being discussed in their sub forum.

Amazon.com: New Trent ultra-pack IMP880 8900mAh External Battery pack for iPad, iPhone 4 4G, iPhone 3G 3GS, iPod, Motorola Droid , HTC Android Phones, Blackberry: Electronics

A very cool looking unit. I like the size.

I bought that digipower because I was going on a camping trip and wanted to be able to charge both e-Cig batteries and my cell phone. When I saw I could get it on e-Bay New for $25.00 I couldn't pass it up.

On e-Bay now for $69.77. Big difference from $25. Was that a "bid" or "buy now" option?

It was a auction that started at $25 with free shipping. I was the only person to bid on it. The seller listed it as a "Universal Laptop Battery" so I don't think many people understood just what it was.

There are many other types of External Batteries out there. What is confussing is that the capacity isn't always given with the output voltage. Mine was advertised as 4,800mAh. But that is at 11.1v. That voltage is the voltage charge a laptop battery which it has output to do.

Be sure to read the specs carefully. Some batteries say they are like 12,000mAh. But that is at .7 volts.

OMG I have to have this! Why does Nhaler have to sell it as a complete kit? I just can't justify $90. It holds more cartomizers than the currently available cases (PCC or carrying) and will charge my batteries. I guess an individual in the US cannot order from these Chinese sites (like alibaba.com and Kanger). :(

I'd expect more vendors, and Nhaler, to carry these as separate items soon. Yes, one can order from them, I have in the past, but be aware there are shipping/W.Union fees on top.

The whole two batt thing is kinda silly when its ony 1500 mAh.. means it could charge what 4 batts? Im dissapointed, with all that room i thought we'd get atleast 2000-2500 mAh batts in'em.. Id rather have a bigger batt and room for less cartos. When does one ever need room for 6 cartos? They never get it quite right IMO.. hard to please everybody i guess..

My theory is that if a PCC costs the same as say 3 batteries, I would rather just buy three batteries. I use an eGo so I don’t need to charge as often. But when I used a KR808, I wanted more batteries versus a PCC for the same price. But that’s just me.

Maybe if I had more money to spend on hardware right now my attitude would be different.

If it helps, the pcc includes 2 batteries & 6 empty cartos.

Just curious. How much does 4 batteries and a 5 pack of cartos cost? And how much does the PCC kit cost?

Not sure how much the PCC costs because you can currently only purchase it from NHaler as a starter kit for $90. As far as the cost of 2 KR808 XL batteries ($26) + cost of 5-pack of cartos ($8) = $34 (+s/h, of course).

I like the case because it will charge XL batts. Currently, I don't even think there is a case that will even hold an XL battery. I also like the ability to hold the 6 cartos. Will I go through 6 cartos in 1 day out, prolly not, but I guess I have vaping ADD - I get bored pretty quickly and like to change frequently. It would also be nice if you were going somewhere overnight. You could could get a few extra charges for you batteries and with the 6 cartos, not worry about running out and having to pack extra cartos or juice. I suppose if I used an eGo, Riva or other PV with a larger battery, a PCC is less of a need. I am looking into an eGO tank and I like the PCC case, less because it is a PCC, but more because it holds everything nicely. Or, perhaps it is just because I like electronic gadgets....
