ShimmyPrincess: That's soo funny I was just checking out AltSmoke's site and decided to ask Rob what his thoughts were on it. BTW I've never ordered from Rob b4 but have heard some awesome things about his customer service and just based on how quickly he responded to my question I will be ordering from him in the future
This is what he had to say... I just figuered that I'd pass it on because may be it would help someone else too.
The Good:
The 510 passthroughs are great! I took one out of my last batch for my personal use, and here are my thoughts. I love it! The vapor is like using a full battery the entire time. The biggest draw back to the 510/yeti/dura/titan/etc is the battery life, we are working on this right now. But until than, the PCC/Passthrough is a great option
The Bad: Well I use strictly passthroughs and it was my first manual passthrough. Sadly, after the 3rd week of constant, non stop use, I noticed that the button started to not work. I believe the reasoning for this was I wore out where I typically push and it was slightly 'off', I was able to resolve this issue
The unit will not work without the battery, the battery recharges via the USB Device, and the passthrough then uses the Passthrough for power. Which is great, because if it's a full battery the unit will work for a short period of time without being plugged in
Judgement:
All in all, I give the Yeti a 8/10 as far as a passthrough is concerned. I love the sealed 'battery', so I don't have to worry about liquid getting into the unit
I would definately recommend it
