Ego Battery Charger Question

[rjs987]

Correct me if i am wrong but for ego batteries ($8.68 650mAh Rechargeable Battery for Ego Electronic Cigarette (2-Pack) at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping) you want a 420mAh charger ($1.61 Electronic Cigarette USB Charging Cable (3cm) at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping).

Also, does anyone know if i could use the charger in the previous hyperlink with my Phone Charger or is it not safe?

Thanks,

Hi. Yes, a 420mA charger is standard for eGo batteries, just like that one.

Not sure what you mean about the phone charger. If you mean using the phone charger ac-dc adapter to power the ego charger, then it would probably be fine as long as it ouputs 5v at 1000mA or more.

If you mean wall chargers, my ego ones are Output-500Ma.-5V.

That would be the minimum current output required for an eGo charger dongle. No idea about the iPhone AC to USB adapter. The OP would have to check if it provides at least 500 mA output current.

I use my Iphone charger to plug my usb cable in to. Heck, I use my car charger, or even the computer. Clear that outlet.... its charging a battery.

I personally don't like the idea of running a 420mA charger on a 500mA supply. Probably would be fine, but I prefer the 1 amp adapters for some extra headroom.

Thanks guys. I just checked and my android phone charger ac-dc adapter is 5v at 1a. It looks like i should be good. Thanks again
