Hi,

I realize not many proteges out there yet but prodigy 801 users can probably chime in too.

I currently have the JStick with an 801 atty. The (+) atty connector is 'X' slotted which seems to really help for an easier draw - air thru the center hole on the atty itself.

Can anyone with both products compare the differences? Looks to me that the draw might be harder with the Protege.

Thanks!

I will when I get my protege... but it will be in a couple of weeks because of another engagement that prevents me from doing it right away (long story). I am sure someone else will have something up before then... but I will keep an eye out and if not I will do a vid review. I just can't wait to get it :D it is in the USPS's hands now

I love my JS still :D but I have to decide how I am going to rotate my vape equipment :D

I'm looking to possibly be in the same rotation boat as you - hence my question.
Love my JS but that Protege has really caught my eye.

Yeah I just said he77 with it and ordered the protege with all adapters 801,510,901

I am sure I am not going to be disappointed with the protege it seems to be pretty solid ... I think I am going to end up being like Zofry (spelled something like that) the pirate avatar with every pv ever made :p

The proteges are shipping now,so noone has one.Maybe tomorrow someone will tell us about it.I ordered one,they look really nice.

They look great!!

I realize my post was a wee bit premature but the Prodigy 801 connector looks the same and I guess that is the component I'm most interested in.

Let me know how you like yours when you get it.

Thanks.

Naw, not every PV. Just the ones that can do high voltage that have something unique about them outside of being a battery box.

No worries here :)

I hit up Zofryer myself already for good, quality mod input and I'd have gone 'back to the well' only I know he's moved on to high volt mods theres days.

I don't have a stick nubee ... BUT, I can tell you, the Prodigy/PT/Protege utilize the hold found within the brass fitting on a Penstyle Atomizer .... So it really depends on how many holes it has. 2/3/4, etc... :) Hope that helps!

Sweet! and it does help (didn't really expect you to have a JS :) )

Thanks!

In your bushes, watching you undress
Since mine won't be in my hands until tomorrow, I can't speak to the Protege draw yet, but as Steve said... it'll draw like any other 801, 901, 510...

The difference here though is.. the Protege will be a quality built unit with a quality switch. The JS (speaking from personal experience) is a mediocre quality PV. Made of cheap plastic, inconsistent in every way, and switches are often going back prematurely.

IMO there are only 2 things to like about the JS:

1) The killer LED ring
2) The built-in USB pass-thru
