So a few weeks ago I ordered a 5v passthru from madvapes. I figured it was time to give 5v vaping a try. I love my h-16 batteries, but I wanted to try something new.
Anyway, a few days later my order arrives in the mail and I pull out the passthru along with all the other goodies I ordered. I plug in in my computer and it does not work. The led glows red, but its like there is no power to the atty. I even tried a couple different 110v usb adapters and it does the same thing.
I wrote to madvapes and they were very responsive. The guy sent me a new one that day and also sent me a pre paid envelope to ship the bad one back. A few days later I got the new one and it does the exact same thing. I just opened another ticket with them, but I dont know if the next one will work either.
Has anyone else had this problem with the 5v passthru's? It's a real bummer that I cant get this thing to work.

Might be your USB port. Tray a cheap wall wort and see if that does it for you. I'll try to find a link to the one I have. It was I think $4 shipped.

Edit: I found the link but it's a blank page now, that was about a year ago. I did find this for you http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/travelpower/9124/?cpg=ab

I just got a 510 5 volt passthru from them too...the only thing that will work with it is my 901 adapter and atty...none of my 510's or 808's will work with it...i've tried pulling the head of the 510 atty's up some but that did not help either... I've plugged it into wall...my usb that powers it just fine using the 901 atty n adapter... noone knows how to fix it..pretty bummed out...at least the 901 does something with it....
