deciding on a passthrough

[k3vin]

Hey all..5 days and my riva is treating me right..had one atty go bad but travis said he would fix me up since it had only been a day..Vapor junction has great customer service..

My question is about PT's...I deliver for a living and I need a decent PT when driving.I am not sure which one to get though.some have in-line batts and some dont,just not sure which one I need.Which one is better??
Thanks,Kevin

Well, it kind of depends.

The ones with inline batteries are "regulated," meaning they perform at a similar voltage to what you're using now. There are also "unregulated" PT's that perform at 5v.

Whether or not you like 5v is personal preference. Lots of people love it. I hate it.

If you have ever tried an LR atomizer, that is pretty similar to how 5v feels. If you want to get a feel for it before you decide, that may be the cheapest way to try it.

I have a regulated 510 PT with an in-line battery, and I love it. I got it second-hand, and it was used pretty hard, so the fact that it's still working well says good things to me. YMMV. Mine is from CigNot.

i agree with MistressNomad. i have an inline battery in my 510 pass and i love it. check into a usb car charger for the cig lighter as well. as long as your voltages are good, you will bet set. good luck.

I just got a unregulated 5v 510 passthrough and so far I love it, very consistant vapor. It does dry out the carto quicker than a battery but no biggie, I'm stationary anyhow.

thank you for the replys..I guess I will go with the regulated one..when I plug it in can I just start using it without the batt inline being charged??

I also have a powerpoint in my truck,so I could use that one for charging and thelighter for the PT.

Yes indeed. But when it is charged, you can also unplug it and keep on vaping for a while.

All you'll need is a USB to car adapter. CigNot sells 'em here:
