Battery Charger Help

[Pepperty]

I have a nitecore I2 and I may purchase another or an I4 some day but my issue at the moment is I am away from home often on long weekends/2 day breaks. In the past I've taken a pair of itaste vv's away with me and happily charged up my kindle/eciggies and phone on same cable and plug. But nowadays I use mods so have separate batteries.

I was looking specifically for a very small charger for my BB batteries which are 16340 I thought I'd hit jackpot when I found an Xtar MP2 on eBay that does 16340 and 18350 (my most used size) It even had a switch for 3.7 volts and 3 volts. Very small, usb and just what I'm after. I bought one. But have just had a vendor email saying remaining one (my one) is faulty etc etc etc. and he's refunded me. Gutted!

I'm due away for 5 days - in 10 days time so I've no time to buy one from Hong Kong/ China and I don't want to haul my nitecore I2 along everywhere with me, I'm doing 2 different hotels plus a few days stay with a pal. The only other battery charger I can find that's small but massively inferior I suspect is an ultrafire battery charger its a bit pricey in comparison to the Xtar one and I really don't want the two crappy batteries...

Does anyone know of a decent reliable trustworthy 16340/18350 battery charger?

I'd stay safe & take the nitecore

I've just lifted up mine and had a good look at it, its lightweight granted but its by no means stealth!

Its only that I have a small case as I've 3 trains, plus 2 changes on the tube and there's a hell of a lot of platform changing and stair walking so I do tend to pack on the mean side! every inch matters!! I have to go Wirral - Liverpool - London - Sussex - Bristol - South Wales - Sussex - Liverpool - Wirral so its a very small wheelie case

Looks like I'll have to trim down on my smalls? --- 1 for wearing, other washed in handbowl and drying!! and you think I'm jesting eh...

ooooh That may save my bacon!? I may come back to you on that 

I'm still trawling all over the world wide web stalking one, you would think somewhere sold them in the UK? I will keep searching - they are even out of stock on fasttech, otherwise i'd have paypal gifted you the amount plus postage for your old one.

I've been using one of these since Feb and it charges all the different batteries I have


www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk/products/electronic-cigarette-accessories/tecc-mvp-ii-and-vtr/joyetech-evicemode-mega-charger-product.html

It charges 10430,10440,14500,16340, 16,650, 17670, 18500, 18350, 18650. And other similarly sized batteries.

Issue I have is more that I only need a charger for small batteries - and I need it little and safe. It also HAS to charge two of the small batteries at one time as that's what the Billet Box takes, I wont have time to charge them solo


As I'm on a mini holiday I dont want to spend it watching a random charger I don't trust. Or even worse, burn down my friends wooden chalet home  or the Hilton Hotel or Premier Inn.......

Pepperty, got it in stock here www.ledfiretorches.co.uk/xtar-mp2-li-ion-battery-charger.html, albeit a bit dearer.

Thank you! paolo

I think I'll pay the extra and know I have it forever? By the time I cover mart166 postage - after his lovely offer - and send back, it'll be similar so I will buy this and smote forever the evil ebayer who left me high and dry!!

That wasn't so grim....

I ordered 2 packs of 2 each (so 4 more batteries to join the 4 I have) aw imr 16430 batteries and the charger and I found a discount code CPF8 that gave me 8% off and as I spent £36 I got free delivery. I had always intended to double up my batteries one day

So vapefest is sorted. 4 sets of batteries should get me through the weekend! I have also read that you can run this charger cia the usb on an external battery pack. So in an emergency I could try that...........

Thanks everyone for your kind offers and help

It's not so much a holiday as a: "I must leave home for a few days break before I throttle my family" break ........

[mart166]

Just to confirm they will run on an external battery pack, or better idea buy an MVP and use that to charge your batteries........think there may be a flaw in that plan though lol

There was a point where I was deliberating on an mpv! I started on a pair of itastes vv and they were brilliant, but my daughters nicked them so I cant even do a little borrow.....

I do happen to have two backup power banks, one is 8400 mah, so it'll run the battery charger no problems, thats great news mart166 Thanks for double checking your unit. I'm looking at camping two nights at vapefest
