Just got a Volt Regulated USB passthru (808D) delivered today from Smokeless Image in the US. Measures 3.7-3.8V unloaded on my meter, center contact is sealed and unslotted, 2 airholes in the barrel, manual activation. I have a typical 5V passthru that I hardly ever use, but this one will get used a lot. Having the same voltage as my batts makes all the difference in the world to me, as it makes for a consistent vaping experience. I'll probably get a second one to keep in the car. The return address on the package was a persons name, not Smokeless Image, and the customs declaration listed the item as a usb cable, which indicates Smokeless Image understands how to get things across the border.... Cheers.

Addendum ... the declared value was also far less than what I payed ... even at what I payed it would not have triggered a GST hit, but still of interest ... your mileage may vary.

Acutally, the one I got is manual... maybe thats how they come now ... I have several 2A usb adapters so I'm good there ... on the box it came in, SI recommends a 1.5A adapter ... they further recommend USB 2.0 for plugging into the computer ... I kinda have a problem with that because the USB 2.0 spec only allows for 500ma power ... most computers will deliver more than spec but I would never use it on my computer.
