Anybody have strong opinions on this type of PT?
I got a regular 3.7v PT with the inline battery in my 510 kit, but the recent testing data suggested it actually ran at the same sub-3.7 voltage that the 510 batts did, albeit with no power sag.
It does indeed seem to work moderately better than the standard PT (more vapor, atty "sizzles" rather than "gurgling" when the atty is saturated during direct dripping).
However it also requires a powered USB hub or desktop USB port, as my laptop rejected it for using too much voltage, sadly. If you have a nicer laptop, your mileage may vary. Also, the 5-second cut off is a bit of a PITA, to be honest. You gotta get good at quickly releasing and re-pressing the button if you like drags longer than 5 seconds.
Kind of a strange safety feature for a manual PT, really... not like you're gonna stick it in your pocket and light your pants on fire if you accidentally hit the button...
Just as an FYI, NHaler's High Voltage line seems to work well with this accessory, more so than the 3.7v PT in any case. Same amount of vapor, oddly, but a shorter required drag time and much more flavor in the 5v.
Thoughts?
