V2Cigs Battery Charger Compatibility

[tmc1284]

I am in Costa Rica for the next month and I lost my charger for my V2cigs Battery.

Would any 808 or 510 charger be compatible with it such as those at revvapor?

It doesn't say if my battery has an 808 or 510 connection on v2cigs website and I'm not sure if that is the only thing I need to determine.

Those types of devices regulate charging voltage through the adapter or charger. Using the incorrect one could result in killing a battery or fire...

V2 are KR808D-1/E-8 threaded...

Good thing I can read Spanish. They do have a 808-510 adapter and 510 charger, which is 4.2v., but v2 doesn't say what their charging voltage is on their web site, so there is no way of knowing, or whether the 808 adapter will work, because 808D-1 is a little different...

I believe its a 4.2v 500mah charger, ask or look around in here
KR808D-1

There is also the matter of: What polarity is it? Blu might be 510 - but they are reverse polarity of any other standard 510 battery. Connect a Blu to a Joyetech charger and you have a guaranteed "battery incident."

The V2 is 80-8 threaded. But does the light on the end stay on until it is fully charged or does it iindicate by the led on the charger changing color when fully charged? If it uses the led on the charger to indicate fully charged then about any 808 charger will work. If the full charge is indicated by the led on the end of the battery going out then it is regulated and must have the correct charger like a G6 or Regal charger.

I'd just pick this up at that store. It's only about $35...

V2Cigs are KR808D1 Gen. 1 batteries, which means they are unregulated. You must use a compatible charger for it. KR808D1 Gen. 2 are NOT compatible with the V2Cigs, so just because it fits does not mean it is compatible. The only vendors I know of that sell Gen. 1 batteries are V2Cigs and Vapor4Life, so unless you can get a charger from either of these, you won't be able to charge your V2Cigs.

RevVapor does sell a KR808D1 battery and charger, but I could not tell you if it Gen.1 or Gen. 2. You will have to ask them. Here is the charger - USB Adapter | revolution vapor
