I found the post that I was thinking of, on another forum so hope I'm not stepping on anyones toes or quoting out of place here. But there is a lot of contradicting information on the NC so trying to get enough information to avoid blowing my face off lol.
"Anybody else wish the button was juice proof? On one hand, the button placement is convenient and ergonomic... ...while on the other hand, it is right next to the atty, which means spatter from the air holes gets spitback shot right up into it if the atty has that orientation when it's tightened-down to a secure position. They just happen to sit with the button right in the spray radius. In terms of comfort and ease of use, it is the best possible placement, but in terms of safety, performance, and maintence... ...possibly the worst possible placement for a semi-open button assembly.
See, I occasionally will be out somewhere and have problems with arching in the button from the juice getting up inside of it. It's like a little rice crispies factory in there. I can feel the power fluctuating when I hit it and even see the coils trembling quite a lot when I pulse.
It's problematic that this button, which is specifically designed not to arc under double voltage, arcs wildly, albeit for reasons than Jaybo and the guys who used to make the SMPL anticipated. So far it hasn't blown me up or damaged my batteries as far as I can tell, but this type of thing is worrisome. Fortunately, I have two crickets so I always carry a clean button. But the design flaw is nonetheless there. But hey, the polymer material does prevent not only that part, but the metal parts of the button assembly from heating up. So there's that.
Some people may not realize that they're potentially in danger when their mod suddenly isn't hitting right. I didn't hear the arcing at first. I thought it was a hair inside of the mod (which actually happens more often than I can wrap my head around.)
Anyone else experienced this?
