I meant an adaptor plus lead not an all-in-one plug & lead. But now I'm second-guessing myself!

(thinking specifically of what we use with our Samsung Galaxy S4, Google Nexus, Sony Xperia Z and Samsung Galaxy Tab)

OK - forget ecigs for just a mo.

With any of the ones you mention can you remove the wire from the plug, leaving a USB hole?
[ETA: like perp's photo]

If yes, it'll be OK. If still in doubt, post a photo 
We'd hate for you to get sorted, then not be able to plug it in.

Does anything you have look like this Kitty?

Yep! So all should be good, right?

I hope im not throwing a spanner in the works here.... but... moblie phone plugs these days normally have a 2 amp output... my S4 is 2.1 most electrical devices are designed to draw the power they need so you can use pretty much any output charger.... has anyone used phone plugs on the devices she is buying.... just double checking incase its been overlooked ...

[fred]

One that says "Output 5v 500ma“ would be best, in relation to what @agenthoover said.

I used to use the kindle one which is 800ma output.

Just to add... ive just been on Jacvapors website .. he supplies usb chargers similar to phone chargers... they have an output of 500 milliamps... which is a considerable amount less than 2 to 2.1 amp ... if the devices she is buying does not have the ability to draw the correct amount of power i would say phone plugs are too much

[fred]

Depends where she's getting them from I suppose? Technically, they should be regulated to only draw 420ma. If its a Friday afternoon China special, who knows. If its a vapeescape charger, I'd say it'd be OK.

ronaldo ?

What output does it have....

[kitty778]

So, everything together comes to £130ish which seems ...reasonable!

For me: itaste v3, Protank v2 (x3) + airflow controller (x3) with spare Ego charger and spare EVOD battery 1000mah

For him: Vision spinner (x2), aeroflow MOW, spare Ego charger

I've added 5 coils; three of the medium size and one each of the others. HAVE I FORGOTTEN ANYTHING OR DO I NEED TO CHANGE ANYTHING?

Getting everything mentioned from myepack.  I can't surreptitiously investigate what our chargers say, right now...

If your chargers are off tablets and phones they will be around 2 amps.... have you got a link to the charger you were looking at

An ego charger SHOULD be regulated to output 500ma @ 4.2 volts.
Which SHOULD draw 420ma @ 5 volts from whatever power source you use.

If everything is working as it should, any USB supply would do (over 420ma)

Problems can arise when the charger does not regulate properly and draws too much current from the supply. If a 420ma supply is used, it can not over current. If a high amp power supply is used with a dodgy charger, the daily fail could get involved.
Reputable dealer probably = reputable charger?

Yeah that is fine... i was just concerned about the phone charger... i dont mean anyone on here, but loads of people think you can just plug in any old charger any old time.. even if the plug on the end fits into the device... this is not always the case .. as im sure you know.

He'll probably need more than 1 tank, but he could 'borrow' 1 of your protanks, till you both work out how its all working, etc

and before you wonder about my handle @kitty....I eat vamos for breakfast (they are a mod as they take seperate batteries to the stuff you ordered. Not advocating them for now for you. What you have ordered is fine. Just be sure to check out the plugs with ronaldo)
