| My buddy is a tech whiz (I'm mediocre at best) and he built a nice little 5v PT from scrap parts he already had and it's apparently working like a charm. He wants to make another, but he needs another USB cable. I've got a retractable standard USB to mini USB cable that I don't need anymore which I'm tossing to him. I don't know if this would work too, but I have a basic 510 battery charger that is broken. The part that the battery screwed into was held in place by cheap plastic which broke. This allowed the inside wires to be spun around until they broke too. Do you think the bit would be usable for a PT?

I would try to make some kind of charging circuit out of it rather than a PT. Definitely not enough current output to run an atomizer.

| I have that mini USB to standard USB retractable, and I also have a standard to standard USB (also retractable) but the coating on the wires is missing in the middle. Do y'all think some electrical tape would fix that?
