Thanks Vape360

Any word on how long the 18650 battery takes to fully charge through the USB charger? With a new battery of course.

I haven't done any timing, but it charges at 800ma so it's going to be faster than a desk charger which is usually 500ma. :)

Unless you have information about the Radius we don't, what else is there to talk about? We're all just passing time until Vape360 grants us another nibble.
I'm just having fun too, in my odd little way :)

Is the Radius going to come with a charging block as well as the cable?

Thanks.

Is the USB water resistant?
Oh, also, as I have an interest in PCBs, what class board does ProVape use?

The port itself is not designed to take on lots of water. We will include a silicone usb cover and I'm sure a little rain would not harm anything. The PCB itself is also conformal coated. I believe it's class 3.

Sweet. Class 3 is as good as it gets- used in airplanes, satellites and weapons systems... Class 3 is built and tested for critical situations, like having a vape in the snow...

That's easily calculated. With the Samsung 25R being 2500mAh, and the USB charger providing 800mA of current, a fully drained battery (which is impossible in a mod that cuts off voltage before the rated 2.5V minimum), it would take 3.75 hours. But, assuming a 3V cutoff, it would take about 3 hours from completely empty.

I was hoping you would include a silicone plug, great to hear :)

I think this is about spot on.

I have a cosmonaut watch also, but I don't think I'm a cosmonaut...

Another in a string of odd and weird posts. Who cares if you have a cosmonaut watch? Goody for you.

He just needs a hug! Zen, we need your help here!!

Ironically, he is a provari fanboi. Just not ready for the change provari is introducing...

He certainly won't get a hug from me. He's very close to going on my ignore list, which means I won't have to read any of his odd posts.
