That would be great for camping or those times when you're spending the weekend out, but for every day needs it's too big. A product that allows at least 4 reacharges and can carry 2 or three batteries and at least 4 cartos in one convenient carry case shouldn't be too much to ask for.

If you find one like you mentioned for an eGo LMK. I haven't seen one that can do all the things you mentioned. But I haven't been looking since I picked up an External Battery.

Well, did another test yesterday on the fully charged PCC, using a different usb cable...and still will only charge 2 batteries. Put the 3rd battery in, and it charged for about 40 minutes, then the PCC ran out of power. Grimmgreen's video says that he can charge 4 batteries on the mini Pcc, and it TAKES AN HOUR to charge a battery :confused: Well, my battery takes 2 hours to charge, hence only being able to charge 2 batteries.

Does it really only take 1 hour to charge a battery in the mini PCC ???? I'm really trying to get to the bottom of this

Do you have a link to the PCC you have? I'm trying to figure out what the mAh rating is for it. Also, how are you charging the PCC? From a wall plug or from a computer USB port?

Electronic Cigarette Battery Chargers It's the mini PCC at the top
The Mah rating is 1000mah, so it should charge 4 batteries at 220mah each.....and I always charge my PCC using a wall outlet. It always shows fully charged, and then it only charges 2 batteries at 2 hours a piece.
Spoke with Ashley today trying to get this resolved.

The Mini PCC's battery should be 1000mAh, which should recharge a 65mm batt 3-4 times,each battery taking 2-3 hours to charge. But I have had a couple of these reports and I am thinking the battery supplier had some mismarked batts, maybe only 500mAh. We're ordering replacement batteries, and I will make sure they are all pre-tested by our factory, and same for all orders in the future.

That's great leaford.....I've been told I'm not reading the display right on the PCC. Then maybe you can answer as to why when I put the 3rd battery in for 3 hours, it comes out not being charged at all. So...I'd love a new battery in place of the one that's not working properly, because I know it's NOT THE DISPLAY.

By the way, sent you a PM...

Just wanted everyone to know....I truly believe my issue with the PCC is the BST-33 battery itself. It only takes me 1 1/2 to 2 hours to charge my PCC, while others have reported 4 hours to charge. It would seem that my BST-33 battery was mis-marked, because it acts more like a 500mah battery instead of a 1000mah battery.
Anyways, I contacted Ashley...Bloog will be sending me out a new battery. Thank You Ashley :) Ashley took care of my problem, and I'm happy. Thanks for listening.
