Using off-brand chargers for eGo Twist?

[Laktos]

Hi everyone,

I was going to order 2 ego twist batteries and the ego usb and wall chargers from vapors-choice.com, but I e-mailed them and they confirmed that the charger is not genuine joyetech. Does that really matter? It's about $8 vs. $16 for the genuine at gotvapes, so I'm wondering if it's worth the extra money to get joyetech, or if it really won't make a difference?

Thanks!

As long as it puts out 4.2V 420-450mAh you will be OK

Thanks! I was just afraid of having my battery turn into a rocket or something with the wrong charger.

I am currently using my old Blu wall charger to hook up my usb cable to my eGo-T batteries and it is working out fine so far.

Ha! I just checked my old Blu wall charger and it is the right specs. Never would have thought to check. Thanks!

I also have one of these Belkin mini chargers that I use for travel. Two USB ports at 5V/500mA each.

That is nice to know, mostly when you go on a cruise. Forgot all about the USB sides of those.
