    :tup::tup::tup: Also, for those of you waiting for USB 4.0 to solve these issues, that is probably going to disappoint. Power provided to the USB is standardized to 5V @ 500mA and is not specifically part of the protocol for communications. Since the power is dependent on available supply, this...

    The avatar is actually a really old ID rendering of the original Pinnacle concept, before we engineered any of the components. We have played around with the idea of a clear case, but have yet to proceed with it.

    Yes, the Pinnacle and Pinnacle Pro both have smart charging circuits to prevent overcharging of the batteries.

    The Pinnacle by Vaporblunt

    Well I certainly appreciate the positive review! We actually developed the pong very late in the design cycle. It was only after the feedback from the VB2.0 that we realized the need/benefits of water filtration when combined with our units. We actually discussed eliminating the mouthpiece all...

    Bullet Holder Update: We have finished the tooling, and I am holding one of the tooling samples in my hand right now. Now all that's necessary is to get the production run started and shipped out the door. Unfortunately we wont make that in time for this weekend, but we will have it available...

    Since this question gets asked a lot, I will answer what you need from any charger rather than answer 10,000 similar questions ;) As long as your charger has an output of 5V and at least 3A of current, you will be fine.

    We just got the first article tooling sample in, so a few weeks and we will be ready for release!

    This is correct. because of the high current rates the heater requires, if we tied battery into it to allow a boost, it's possible to over discharge the battery and damage/destroy the unit. Hence, when plugged in power is only pulled from the source, and not the battery.

    (this is what you get for posing early in the morning) Your right, the transformer is 5V 3A. I had thought it was 5V 5A for some reason. that pack should work fine for the PRO.

    Marketing, mostly. at 3.1A the output is a little low, since the Pro will require 4A to run. this will cause the power supply to a) limit the current to 3.1A (which is actually pretty advanced and not usually put into those kind of devices) or b) Pull the voltage down - which can damage the...

    Quick note based on some confusion about thermal decomposition: You can check Wikipedia here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_decomposition Thermal decomposition is not the same as melting, all plastics that are used in injection molding are termed thermoplastics. This means that under...

    No, 428 is the melting point of PC, NOT auto-ignition temperature. Those are two distinct and different properties. Melted plastic is typically not harmful, hence why it is used so commonly in injection molding. If you have ever been to a molding shop, you would notice how nobody is wearing...

    In response to all the concerns about "toxic fumes" First, let me state that the melting you see on the PC parts may not really be melting. Like I have said many times now, we have not seen it happen on our test units. My personal belief is that it is a stress cracking situation that is...

    This is a bit embarrassing, but I actually forgot we made the tooling change. Then, I didn't notice the posts about the thicker PONGS, I thought they were all mouthpieces. So no pulling wool over eyes, it's a brain fart on my part.

    ***IMPORTANT*** [/IMG] Just found a mix up in our shipping department. Turns out, we were shipping PC PONGS by accident in our first batch (as I alluded to earlier). We have changed the design to make the section that holds the screen thicker. (PONG on the left). These parts are PES, the thin...

    Glad you brought this up: While I was double checking my chemical compatibility charts, I noticed that both PES and PC are Limited use in Ester based oils. Ester is pretty common, and found in Glycerin based oils, which are used for tincture production. Also anything based in Polypropylene...
