I know some people have mentioned a battery cutoff. Others have said they haven't noticed one.
I was wondering what your experiences have been with the various features of the 306.
Here's what I've noticed:
If the atty is totally cold, the cutoff seems to be around 5 seconds.
If the atty is hot, the cutoff is much shorter (< 3 seconds)
Has anyone had the warning light for > 15 drags in under a minute? My manual says there's such a feature, but I haven't gotten that to happen. I wonder if it's because I haven't accurately tested this. It would require more than 1 drag every 4 seconds.
Has anyone run into the cleaning feature that supposedly occurs after 1500 drags on one atty? My guess is that it just pulses power on and off in order to cook off any impurities.
I have run into the lower battery shut-off feature. I've been trying to properly cycle my batteries, so I've been smoking on them right up to the shut-off. Has anyone noticed a shortened battery life due to incomplete cycles?
Thanks!
Mike
