Where exactly did you find that charging batteries through the USB port on your computer was harmful? Cause a 2.0 USB port should be able to handle 500mah without nuclear meltdown.

Just asking.
Got a MVP with a octopus! This is going to be my carry around so far the battery has lasted 3 days straight from the box no charge at all. The Octopus holds around 10-18 drops and last like 25 puffs. Really impressed with the battery life of the MVP and the performance from the cheap ($9.00) octopus.

I quit using my laptop as a charger or as a pass thru about a year ago, but I was at the house I am renovating and the charger was at the other house and I was on my last batt. My plan was to do it one more time and only charge it enough to get me back home (it had worked plenty of other times with no problem). It fried the laptop at around the 30min mark...

What happened to Semi's computer was proof enough for me.

That is exactly what the shop that looked at my laptop said. It should not of happened, but did. My warranty will not cover it since they said the external device caused the problem - not failure by the laptop. Which product do you get to blame? Was it a bad USB port (it was a 3.0 USB port) or did the Ecig have a disruption during charging that backed up into the laptop? I do not know, but I am out one laptop. The cost of repairing is not cost effective.
OK, got da plastic/rubberized Bolts (18650 batt) from Mad Vapes in today. My initial impressions/testing using da smaller SMOK dual coil carto (non-eGo size)...
- Very light, even with batt installed.
- Luv da rubberized texture.
- Switch is large, noiseless with a positive tactile 'engagement' feedback and in a comfortable (for me) orientation.
- I purposely dropped one three times from 3 - 4 feet onto a thin carpet to test it's ruggedness... still vaping like a champ!
Now... granted it's a single voltage PV (non-VV) and not the tightest body (seams) in the world. And there is the very slightest 'slop' at the 510 connection. Also, no eGo well for the eGo skirted cartos. Not fer on da field NFL or in ring MMA wannabes.
BUT, so help me, they're gonna be my new v-verts flavor testing platforms! Just ordered the other two colors. Gonna load up some slim SMOK DC cartos with diff flavs (PV color coded) and cap the mouthpieces to prevent joose evaporation.
Sure wish I had the set ups earlier today! Had my teeth cleaned this AM. The accounting clerk overheard my dentist congratulate me being 'bakky free for almost two years. She, the clerk, had tried the lil' e-ciggy thing (no, she didn't know which one) and went back to smoking. Had her try my VV Gripper, DCT with my DIY VZ SC blueberry joose. Her eyes popped open wide and asked if I could recommend a setup. It woulda been great if I had six Bolts with a diff flav on each!
And yes, I plan to drop off two eGo batts, two eMDCCs, a charger and some joose tomorrow.
BTW, this was the shortest cleaning session ever!![]()
So... would I recommend this lil' ¢heap PV for, as in my case, flav testing and/or OMG backups? Well, I did order two more...![]()
Did the shop check for a virus or Trojan horse? That can absolutely cause the problem. I still find it strange a USB port is going to fry a computer. I've had bad USB ports on my computer. I never fried anything.
....but I moved it on to another client who is using it daily!!!! I took him a bunch of juices that I was tired of...so he is well supplied and doing great with it.
One person just started smoking again (bummer)...
... today, I plugged it into my wall charger for her instead of her charging with the laptop, and it seems to be working for her now...
te charger works just fine with my twist... really slow, but it works. and it seems to have worked for her Titan. Once I used a wall charger instead of the USB port on a PC.Day-um HD, AWESOME! That's da second vaping 'high five' fer me today! So glad ya found an appreciative now-non-smoker. Ain't it great knowin' that your an aid in extending a fellow human's life!!!
My first grin generator today was a young buck that said that Janet's Heaven is da best flav he's ever purchased (Janet, again, THANX!)![]()
As for resmokers... it does hurt! But ya can only do what ya can. It's totally up da v-vert as to their own success after you've shared your experience/knowledge. We can only usher 'em so far...
Sounds like da TW charger is kaput.
