Hi Everyone,

I have a USB passthrough for my old 808 cartos.
KR808D-1 Manual USB Passthrough

It works great on my computer but some cartos taste burnt after only a few toots. Are they unable to handle it? Why do some work great and others taste awful. (freshly filled, no way they are dry)

Also ... I ordered a USB adapter for my car. I know I need minimum of 2amps but the one I ordered is 3.1amps. Will that be too much?
Amazon.com: USAMS Compact High Output Dual USB Car Charger - 3.1A Output Ideal for Charging iPad, iPad 2, Galaxy, iPhone, HTC, Droid, GPS, and Other Tablets, Smart Phones and USB Powered Devices (Data cable not included): Everything Else

Still learning... THANKS!

I've never used 808 cartos, but I suspect this is iether about the output voltage of the passthrough being a bit high for your 808 cartos or having bad cartos. What resistnace are they? How old are they? Any idea what the output voltage is of the passthrough? In any case, if anyone knows more about 808 cartos than I do (which is zero :() please chime in.

As for the USB adapter, having more amps available is just fine. The passthrough will take only what it needs.
