Just a question going out to Smoktech Bolt users, Does the Bolt have a resettable hot spring?
Thanks

Hi Six, thanks for your input on this. Any idea on where to get better quality hot springs that would fit the Bolt? Also, a plain SS spring won't reset after collapse will it? The springs I was told about auto reset. Possibly a new development (smok putting them in Bolts that is)?

I've never heard of a hot spring that will return to its normal shape by itself after collapsing. I'd be interested in seeing something like that (I deal with some electronics professionally that would really benefit from such a device).
And WOW! I sure don't want the spring re-expanding if the short still exists! The spring shrinks in an effort to prevent the battery from going into thermal runaway, why would you want to give it a second chance?
The hot spring is not suppose to respond to just the temperature of the battery, it is also suppose to respond to amperage draw. So there is a lot more to it than just being a hot spring. But attypops is right, a spring that responds at 500 degrees won't do much good when a Li-Ion goes thermal at 300 degrees.
