the switch only looks a little different from the outside.
the inner workings are no different.
But imho, seeing all the bad ju-ju about the current mechanical switch, i think there is work to be done on the mechanical switch design.
But, I literally ONLY use my V2 now, haven't been able to touch my protege or little ecigs that are 3.7 volts. It's just a little bit of fidgeting to get the switch to work right every other day or so...
That being said, when the V2's button works flawlessly - it will be the best PV in my opinion.
here is why:
Stainless steel body.
new adapters will be even better. (no more hit and miss spinning brass inserts)
the Size of the PV is amazing (who cares about 3.7v OR multiple battery compatibility)
this isn't a tactical flashlight. it's something we use everyday. it needs to be built for everyday use. even i think that the V2 is an amazingly well built PV. i really feel like anything i may have said or criticized about the protege was changed in the V2.
Back to the button: the button is a work in progress... i dont think it will be any different until something is found that works perfectly and forever. it's a mechanical button that was literally designed by the puresmoker community (just look at the
threads about it early on...). There is only a handfull or less of these quality PVs out there, NONE of which are this small @ 5v, at least i haven't found one ---- if you know of one let me know, i'll probably
buy it and try it out, unless it's a GG.
