Do you guys at PS plan on implementing a master ON/OFF switch in the future?

I have researched for the past month and the Prodigy has exactly all the features I want for my first high volt purchase except a master ON/OFF switch. For me this is an absolute must. Perhaps this could be implemented as an optional accessory or end cap? Even a simple CR123a flashlight style ON/OFF switch would be fine by me.

Also I want to add that the new Protege looks pretty nice with that finish, notched end cap (functional improvement), and laser etched PS emblem. Looks more like a commercial made item and would probably help out if I ever have to explain what I'm "smoking". Any plans to do this with the Prodigy?

The switch never creates a problem, i keep mine in my pocket constantly and have no issues. You have to depress the button lower than the plain that the plastic surrounding it, so it going off in your pocket, bag, case, etc etc, isn't much of an issue. Some people have had problems with it sticking, but that is an easy fix.

If you are looking for an awesome high voltage PV, you found it, no master on/off switch though. I am sure it wouldn't be too hard to mod an on/off switch into the prodigy if you are savvy with stuff like that.

I don't have an issue with my button being depressed unless I'm pushing it -- like the above poster said, you have to push it further than the edges of the housing the button is in.

If you're a lady and worried about it being depressed while in your purse, try a tooth brush holder...this is what I use, and it works great. Easy access, fairly compact, and a hard case to prevent any issues :) (I use a little coin bag to hold extra batteries, a small bottle of juice, and an extra atomizer)

Thank you both for clearing that up. Sounds like I wouldn't have any issues pocket carrying. I had alot of problems with this on my 510. I got a case for it but hate having to fiddle with the case when I want to vape.

Both the Protege and the Prodigy are excellent high quality machines.
I've never had mine go off when I didn't want it to or not work when I did.

The vapor production, hit, etc... is truly amazing. I use the 510's at 3.7v most of the time. The strength and vapor can be customized with the mix.

There area lot of really good MODS out there but this is a OEM that got it right the first time.
