510 Passthrough

[Myshkin]

I have mentioned in another thread that I will no longer sell this item due to being prone to fail. There was too many lemons and JOYE has made no attempts as far as I know to address this issue.

It does seem when you get a good one that it lasts awhile

So I am selling what I have left for $10 There will not be a warranty but I will sell with the guarantee of not being DOA, you will have 24 hours after delivery to report DOA

Damn, just went there looking for one, a manual 510 PT.
Got my original one there in Aug, still works great but thought I should get a backup. Didn't know they had so many problems

Anyone here get bad ones? I haven't heard any horror stories.
And does a a 901 work with a 510?

FYI I must be one of the lucky ones. The 510 pt I got with my kit is all I used and it's still going strong. I never use the batteries. My new 5volt had a prob but I fixed it.

I am getting in this week (wednesday) some 510 passthroughs without the inline battery.

They are the BE510 model

I have had some good feedback

Like I said before you can get a good one from the joye passthrough. I have 2 myself that have worked great for me for going on 6 months.
I would say I got 20% returned which i feel is high

20% definitely is high. I was looking for one when I just placed my order and your price was right but no button came up to put that in my cart. I'm looking forward to trying the Blackberry though.

They suck. Mine lasted like a few puffs then it dwindled out. So I opened the thing up and found the fault. One of the solder leads on the board circuit board was shorted out. I bet that's what is happening to most of the failures. I just ordered a 510 USB passthrough with no inline battery from electronicstix. Reports are that it is very reliable.

The new 510 passthroughs are on site.

My first impression: They give a stronger hit then the JOYE one

Sounds great! I might actually order one once I get my check next week. It's about the time when I need to update my personal supply of backup attys as the one I'm currently using died out on me. Might also grab some batts while I'm at it. Keep an eye out for my order next week.

Can't compare this new one that I just recieved in the mail today to the older ones but this one gives no less of a hit than a fully charged battery so it's pretty good, and I really like the fact that it's just laying here on my desk and when I pick it up to take a hit, I actually get a hit instead of a flashing light at the end (dead battery)!

Although it does have like a 5 second cutoff that I wasn't aware of, no big deal though. So far working really well.

Also, once you have one of these you'll wonder how you managed without it!

Are these 5 volt PT's?
