It's not a portable pack.. Mine just arrived yesterday and for such a low price it is a very nicely built quality unit. Now I just need my PS to plug into it.

I'm looking for a good 2amp portable usb battery pack to use as well though..

The Kensington(1.5Amp) is the one I use and it works very, very well. And they are usually $59.99 retail, but Best buy is clearing them out for $14.99(if your local Best Buy still has them in stock). There is also a power supply called the APC power pack, but moe expensive and harder to find(but 2Amp).
Here's some links:
APC Mobile Power Pack, 10Wh
Portable Power Pack for Mobile Devices - K38021US - Kensington

Again, there are alot of really good USB passthru power suggestions in this thread:

I bought the 2 amp APC for 30 bucks on Amazon, look for the seller outpriced.

I received my PS Manual USBPass yesterday and I am using it on my standard PC USB port.
It works quite well but reading the forum it says the standard USB port is only 5v 500ma and it will work much better if I buy higher powered AC USB hub or wall socket adapter.
Well after reading that I went onto Ebay and bought a Pluscom 7 port hub AC Power Adaptor which has an output of 5v 3000ma
I now read on this threat that I should have bought one that is 1500ma to 2000ma

No one has mentioned using anything higher than 2000ma,

The hub should be here tomorrow but I'm worried about blowing up my PS Manual USBPass

Any advice would be of great help

Ain't gonna hurt if you have too much amp capacity. It only affect performance if you don't have enough!

Thanks for putting my mind at rest

I will report back on the difference between 500ma and 3000ma

The USB port on most newer PCs is strong enough to run the PS PT. The draw on most 5v PTs is more than 1.5 amps. I don't recommend using your PC as a power source though because of the potential hazard to your PC. If your Atomizer or switch develop a short circuit it could potentially take out the USB bus in your PC.

I use the AC/USB adapter mentioned in this thread. It works very well when you are able to use an AC power source. When I don't use the AC power I plug my Kensington into either AC or DC charger and vape from it while it is being charged. The Kensington will only work by itself when the battery is fully charged.

I meant to say most good PT, not most. The Joye 510 PT is a piece of junk and it will run on any USB port because it doesn't draw enough power to hurt anything.

I got my PS Manual USBPass about 2 days ago from Puresmoker's UK distributer e-cigs.co.uk and tried it on the my PC USB and it worked very well. I would say I got about double the vapor that I get from my old USB PassThrough Battery.

Today I received my Pluscom AC 7 port USB Hub from a seller on Ebay which has an output of 5v 3000ma, I would say the vapour output has doubled again.

Here is the Ebay link if anyone is interested, I am in the UK so this is a UK seller. It cost £7.89 with free postage

Sorry cannot post link yet replace the h**p with http
