Nitecore Charging..

I just got a nitecore i2 charger always just use the charger on my mod but it's starting to get a tad wiggle to it so figured I'd buy decent charger just wondering how long to charge and is it supposed to get a little warm?  

Charging An 18650 With A Nitecore

So i just got the nitecore 1a charger in the mail today for my 18650. Previously i was using the usb charger to charge it on my ipv mini 2 but i haven't tried the nitecore yet. about how long would it take to charge this battery on my nitecore?  

Nitecore Um10/20 Or D2?

looking at buying a new charger from edisonbright(authorized nitecore distributor) after getting burned with a fake on ebay. i can either get a UM or a D2 as thats what my funding allows, which do you reccomend? i only have 2 batteries right now, so charger space isnt a premium.  

New Charger Or New Mod?

I have a Vamo in the mail, since I already have 18650s and a beast of a charger from when I was into radio control. The wife just informed me we're going on vacation for a week, woohoo. My charger is a but bulky and requires a separate power supply.

So, now I'm stuck between buying a new charger that I only see myself using when we go away, or a cheap box mod with battery (like an mvp 2) that I would probably get more use out of, but it's a little more money than the charger would be.  

Best Of The Best Charger?

Hey folks.
Title pretty much says it all. Invested in a collection of aw from rtd. Found that my el cheapo charger was getting them to 4.3. Figured it was time to invest. Most of the threads I found where pretty dated.
So... There's the nitecore d series. The pila (didn't research this one a lot) or the xtar.
Finding pros and cons to each. What's your up to date opinion?  

E-cigarette Won't Fit Into The Charger Anymore

My Aspire e-cigarette won't fit into the charger, or three of my four cartridges. It will fit into the fourth cartridge, which has a much wider hole for the prong. Do you have any idea what might be wrong?

It looks like there is no way for the e-cig and the charger to hook up, since the e-cig ends in a prong and the end of the charger has a solid cylinder. Am I missing a piece?

I know that I used to use the thing, but I've been away for eight months and now I don't remember what I did.  

Is This Charging Adaptor Compatible With My "smok"

I've been charging my 18650 batteries on a Nitecore charger but having to unscrew my Smok XPRO m65 is a real pain so thought I may as well make use of the USB port and charge the battery while it's still in the mod.
But I've been hearing a few horror stories of other mods such as the clouper, apparently its not safe to charger using the USB port

I'd really appreciate it if anyone can help inform me if I'd be able to use my phone charging adaptor with my mod.

The input and output specs of my phone charger and mod input are in the attached pics.

Cheers everyone  

The Possibility Of An Ego Type Battery Charger Mod

Just curious that if I could build a device that would allow me to connect an eGo or Vision Spinner 2 type battery to a charger like a Nitecore Intellicharger i4 that it would work safely and efficiently in place of the usual USB charger? I have an idea as to how to make the connection but I wanted to get some feedback on the idea before I actually proceed to build it. I admit that I am no expert when it comes to Li-ion batteries but my goal is to be able to charge the "stick" type batteries that I own in a faster and safer manner than the seemingly low tech USB chargers. Thanks for any input offered.  

Vape Pen Charger Explosion

Just watched a news video... "Vape pen charger explosion"
Vape pen charger explosion causes thousands of dollars worth of damage to California woman's home
The lady was charging a vape pen and the charger "explodes" causing a nearby paint can to shoot up into the ceiling. The fire dept guy says "those lithium ion batteries..." and so on. Now wait just a minute! Technically, it wasn't a "vape charger" and they showed the vape pen looked fine. Pens don't come with a charger, just a USB cord, so it was just a universal USB charger (like for phones, ect) and the pen battery didn't explode. Also, why did she have a paint can sitting next to it? Did she leave the vape pen on (might not matter)? Was the USB cord damaged (short)? Pens use a LiPo battery not Lithium Ion. I know I'm nitpicking, but all people will really "hear" is vape pen explodes... nobody really thinks things out. Could this have happened anyway while charging a phone or something else? Right after watching this, I see an article in the local paper telling people to stop vaping immediately because of the recent events (and they don't mention ANYTHING about the real cause!) Final thought: there was also a water bottle next to where the charger was... maybe she spilled water on the charger? I'm like Peter Falk in the old TV show Columbo... "but what got me thinking was..." Maybe I overthink things, but at least I do think (and ask questions)
