510 Passthrough electical issue

[umop apisdn]

Here's the deal. When I use my passthrough, as I'm hitting my vapo, it feels like my passthrough's lightly buzzing (like a touch lamp). This happens faster if I hold an extra finger on the atty shell (habit, helps me know how hot it gets to avoid burning it out).

Is that a good thing or not? It discharges pretty quickly once I let it go and let it chill on my desk. I just don't wanna get shocked if this thing goes crazy.

I've had 6 510 PTs, and none of them vibrated. Doesn't sound good. Does it get very hot when plugged in? And does it vibrate when unplugged and you vape?

Sounds like a cap ready to pop to me. Oh, and I assume it is a batt-box PT, and not a 5V straight-wire model.
