I use my Samsung charger.
Iphone/ipad should work fine

Thank you buddy. The reason for me asking is the manual clearly states that the battery shouldn't be charged with the ipad charger, etc. but my dad is charging his twisp with my wall adaptor at the moment
I am under the impression that the ego will only draw what it needs I stand to be corrected
Thanks ohm for your very knowledgeable answer
Yes, but keep an eye on it. When it gets too warm, remove immediately.
No problem, just keep safe with tonight's HIGH VOLTAGE charge
By the way, from my RC heli days we learnt that the safest Amps to charge you battery with, would be equal to the Mah rating of your battery (Unless the battery is specifically designed to be able to handle higher Amps - this is rare)
So if you have a 650Mah battery, then .65 Amps is your max - you could probably charge it at higher amps as long as you keep an eye on temperature, but in the long run this damages the battery and shortens the lifespan.
It is actually even better to charge it below the max rating, as this will increase your lifespan - so your normal ego/Evod chargers will charge at .5A, even though your batteries are 650Mah.
If you charge from a USB port - the port can deliver up to 0.9A (depending on the version of USB), but if you are using the ego/evod charger, it will still only pull 0.5A from that.
Most of the 18* batteries have a Mah of higher than 1000, so you could charge those at higher amps - even though most chargers max out at 1A - thing is, as stated above, you will increase the batteries lifespan if you charge it below its Mah rating, so those 1A chargers are just fine.
For RC heli's we charged at the max possible (because you wanna fly already!) , but the chargers for those batteries were way more advanced, and you could select the Amps you wanted it to charge at from a menu system
