Current smoke stoppers in market are all automative light-bulb or resettable fuse, both of them have some potential risk. VIFLY ShortSaver is a different one, it is electronic fuse.

1. Other smoke stoppers just limit not stop the current flow, the leakage current may still damage your components. VIFLY ShortSaver is a different smoke stopper that adopts the electronic fuse to completely cut off the current into your RC build if a short circuit or wiring mistake is detected.

2. VIFLY ShortSaver would turn off the power to a device that drew in excess of the switchable 1A or 2A threshold within just 10ms. It is far more effective than the old way of using light-bulb or resetting fuse. The shorter the protection time, the safer your build will be as something make break by the time the fuse trips.

Since cut off time is 10ms I wonder what the speed would be on a quick blow fuse. Just checked and datasheet says a 1A autostyle fuse will blow at 6A in .1S or 100ms so this would be an improvement in time but I wonder how much difference that time would make. Ultimately a matter of if the components have enough heat dissipation to deal with the current for x time.
 
This video clearly shows how VIFLY ShortSaver can stop your build going up in smoke! It is a must-have accessory on your work bench.

 
"A smoke stopper is an essential tool for protecting your quad from damage. But until now, the light-bulb smoke stoppers were less than ideal. The ViFly ShortSaver is the smoke stopper you always wanted. It's small. It supports up to 6S voltage. And it uses e-fuses (not polyfuses) so when it shuts off, it really shuts off (and it doesn't light on fire). " ------- Review from Joshua Bardwell
