Prodigy v2 or USB pass? So Confused!

[Xtrminatr]

Hi,

I have been e-smoking and analogue free since August 5th of 09. I used to use the JOYE510, then switched to a DSE901 for the battery life. Recently, my DSE901 has been producing ZERO throat hit, and I'm getting close to buying a pack of cigarettes again. Now, I have a few questions.

I am a college student with little money, and the Prodigy seems like a lot of money to throw down, but I hear it is well worth it. I do most of my vaping in my apartment, but do a bit of vaping on campus at school in between classes.

What I am wondering is, which should I get? I am looking for a harsh throat hit, because I have missed that feeling with this crappy 901. Is the usb pass a 5 volt? And can the prodigy v2 be hooked up to a usb port? I am planning on placing an order in a couple of days, but just had a few questions first.

The V2 currently doesn't have a USB insert option, but i am sure Steve is cooking something up.

The USB pass is technically 5v while not underload, but underload you actually get about 4.3v.

The V2 will be about 5.5 while not underload, and around 4.8ish while underload.

I would say go with the V2.

Edit: Underload = power actually going through the atomizer.
Not under load = power going to the atomizer...not all this power actually passes through though.

Actually, the Prodigy V2 runs at about 5.15 volts under load. Here's a link to the load testing results for all of the Puresmoker devices:

Ah sweet, i was quoting the load testing of the V1, you are right, i remember the V2 getting higher results.

thanks for the correction.

You have to remember though that test was performed using an 801 atomizer @3ohms and since the 510 and 901 ohms differ the loaded voltage of the V2 will change.

I just noticed that Steve was testing the Prodigy V1 with a 901 and the V2 was done using an 801. I believe if he used an 801 for the V1 test it would bring the loaded voltage closer to the V2 test results.

Go with the Prodigy V2. You will NOT be disappointed at all. You will like it so much that you will be very glad you can take it with you wherever you go.

GREAT TH, vapor and taste!! Oh Yea!!!

Don't forget the switch has a lifetime warranty and it is worth every penny.

This IS the absolute dream vape!!!

Yeah, gonna get the prodigy once my credit card payment posts, but I don't think I'm gonna be getting in the first shipment

Yes, go portable. The batteries last forever compared to standard batteries, and the cord can get very binding (no, I don't have the PS PT, but I have other models - with a cord).
