What are you guys talking about?? I charged a 510 battery numerous times with a EGO USB charger and never had any problem. SSHHHHEEEESHHHH.

Lucky you. They have this nasty habit of exploding and/or bursting into flame on occasion. Just because the hammer hasn't fallen on the loaded chamber yet doesn't mean you're not playing Russian Roulette.

Oh, and yes, you CAN charge an ego on a standard 510 charger. It requires an adapter, but it works... just takes twice as long.

I'm sure someone will start chiming in any second with words like "ohms" and "mahs". Think it has something to do with that business, anyway:)

Perhaps you have just gotten lucky?

Ego chargers push too many amps for a little 510 battery to take. It can overwhelm the protection circuit, and then *pop*...(sizzle)... or sometimes BANG.
