The joys of the portable charging case

No matter what, the batteries on the majority of Personal Vapourisers (or e-cigs)tend to have a pretty small amount of electricity in them. Or, to put it another way, a fully charged battery simply isn't enough to get you through the day, if you are an ex 40 a day smoker, or indeed, even an ex 20 a day man (or woman).

The solution - well, for 103 users, it was to carry four fully charged batteries in addition to the one on your atomiser, and buy higher capacity (and therefore longer) batteries.

Same applied to 901 users, but joye510 users (which includes Janty Dura, Tech Titan and the Yeti) have had access to a portable charging case almost from day one.

In effect, the case is - aside from being a case - a little high capacity battery built into a charger. So, your 510 breaks down into battery and atomiser, and the battery gets topped up while it's in the case. Plug in a mini-usb charge lead overnight, and you're ready for the day ahead.

But does it work? Hell yeah, it does. This ex 50 a day man gets through a full day on the PCC with two batteries without any problems - and my 510 is almost permanently on the go. I'll e honest and say that also carry 901 with two spare batteries in another case, and I'm awaiting delivery of a decent PCC for that, too. (In case you're wondering, the 901 usually has a different flavour of e-juice in it - RY4 for the 901 and American Blend in the 510, usually)

Now, I hear, PCCs for the 103 and its derivatives are available - I'll be getting a sample to try very soon, so I'll report back then, but, hopefully, it'll do the job just as well.

I'll tell you what, these electronic smokes are the way forward. Remember Synthahol in Star Trek... well, we're not that far away from synth-o-fags. Cool, eh?!!

  1. Im a huge fan of the PCC for my 510. Nice to be on the go and not worry about battery life? Do you know if they make a PCC for the Halo Electronic Cigarette? I was thinking about buying one, but wasn't sure what model it was and if I could get a aftermarket PCC.
