HELP....

[lolli]

Can I get a non inline 901 or 510 then - that sounds better???

Scylla no efforts to help are ever wasted - thank you & Chrissie for persevering with the prob!

I want this set up to take out with me - just like the day out we had with it . It really appealed to me & got me enthusiastic bout vaping more.

Blimey what a huge headache this is!!!

(BTW Scylla I haven't paid yet & have e mailed them but makes me very nervous- never done that before)

Oh dear! wot a pickle!

[Scylla]

Don't worry about the eBay thing, Lolli - you made an error in good faith and you won't let them be out of pocket. It's a drop in the ocean to them.

I'm so desperately hot 'n bothered I forgot altogether than you don't want that power thing to charge with, you want to vape from it

Lolli, the cheapest non inline passthroughs are the Garry Dibbly ones. He makes them himself & use to sell them via his website called e-cig city. However he is now just selling them via Liberty Flights website.

However, just to confuse things (sorry) I think Lynda's passthrough is an inline battery one? I'm sure she will confirm this for you. The inline ones are cheaper to buy but at some point you will have to buy new batteries for it plus you won't get a 5v vape from it.

Don't worry if you don't go ahead with buying the power pack from the Ebay seller. They are a busines so Distant Selling regs allow you to change your mind.

[lolli]

But....... how do you buy new batteries for it as it's a sealed unit ???

I shall now go to bed with a bottle of wine!

[Chrissie]

Oh Lolli I'm sorry, I've never owned a passthrough with an inline battery so got to admit that I don't know if the batteries can be replaced.

[lynwlt]

Have to say that I can't use my GD passthrough with my power pack, only the in-line battery one, which is the one Lolli with the brolly saw.

if you can get the one you want what about this idea........ get a usb power pack normal used for usb devices to power them so just plus a normal usb pass-through into it and away you go

The CAMLINK SIGMA is one of the most innovative idea's to come along. Firstly it charges 4 AAA batteries. Secondly it can act as a power supply for most of today's digital gadgets and lastly it also acts as a LED torch with high visibility in the dark.

it seems like a great idea I ight get one myself lol

I also so wish someone else would come along & help Lolli. From looking at Lynda's link, I'm fairly certain that power pack could work as well as the Kensington one. As Lolli says, they both only seem to have 1amp output though.

I think that would work. I have a GD passthrough so will whizz into Maplins one day this week and see if they will let me test it out. According to the blurb, it comes with a 60% charge on it, so that should be fine for testing, providing it is not in a sealed box.

I was looking at buying another Kensington and searched the PCWorld stores near me. According to the website there is a store near where I will be working tomorrow that had them in stock about a month ago. I have a mountain of jobs to get through tomorrow, but will try to call in there just to check in case there is one lurking. I've added the store to my sat nav so I will remember to call in there inbetween jobs.

I will also have another search for this *&^%$&* Nano charger for Lynda, but that will be later in the week when I clear my desk

[jaki]

So much for whizzing into Maplins - none near me nor on my routes, have any stock.

There is one in Eastbourne, where I will be working next Tuesday, so if no other stores get stock in, my little testing session will have to wait until then!

[Chrissie]

James the one you have linked with wouldn't keep a passthru going for very long. - it's only 300Mah.

That's really good of you Jaki, hope the one in Eastbourne has them in stock for you to try

[jimmybat]

miss read it thought it would do will continue searching for a nice cheep one
James

[Chrissie]

Actually James, scrub what I said, I guess 300Mah isn't too bad. I've just kind of got used to using 18650 batteries in my GGTS that are 2500 Mah

Lynda

I've just read this again Lynda. Do you have the Kensington power pack? My GD works just fine on those (I have two as I am so good at losing mislaying things).

I tried plugging it directly into the USB port in my car and it just makes a popping sound. Good job the car is still under warranty as the USB port has never been the same since I tried that.........

[Chrissie]

Jaki, I'm surprised that your GD passthru works well with the Kensington power pack as it's only 1Amp. To get the best out of the GD passthru you really need at least 2Amps.

Lol, I bought a USB adapter for the lighter socket in my car & it's as good as useless.
