You know, that would seem like the fair thing, since many people probably bought a mod like this thinking that it might be the last purchase for a while. Obviously you expect to replace your atty's and batteries, though, but I have tons of cheap little gadgets that have lasted for years, so I would expect a $100 piece of equipment that's actually very simple to last a few years at least, unless I stupidly cross-thread it or something. :)

My switch has died TWICE, and wasn't because of either one of those reasons.........

So what do we think caused the switches to fail?

The only thing that makes a switch or fuse pop is an applied load.

Was it was one of the first Protege's with the goofy housing material that was found to cause a short?

I've lost two Prodigy switched due to shorted attys and one of the Protege switched due to the housing material but that was replaced/changed out.

I'm very careful w/juice, it wasn't that. And when the switches failed, I would take off the atomizer and continue vaping on my PS PASSTHRU. I had asked Steve in a forum topic 'what was the cause', but evidently he didn't see the question, because I never got an answer. I just sent the whole unit back to PS today, as they requested the whole unit this time, and I also included a note to Steve to please explain why I'm having repeating switch failure. BTW I own a Prodigy VI, not Protege.

Hey Jennifer, we'll certainly try to figure out what's happening. As long as the atomizers and everything are in there, we should get a much clearer picture.

Casey:

I only sent what I 'use', that was the 901 adapter and the 901 atomizer along with the Prodigy. BTW atomizers were purchased thru PS.

Thanks again. I also seem to be going thru a lot of batteries........ (but I'll need to start another thread topic on that)
