Kismet: Accuracy +6% Question...

A quick question about the mechanics of this IO. I was hoping to slot this IO into Afterburner and have it active like a global enhancement even when the power isn't active for awhile (in missions I'm likely to be using hover instead), but I'm not certain that it works that way. Is this a situation where the power needs to be active every so often to gain the benefit of the IO, or is it always active even if placed in a toggle that is not on?

Thanks gang.

According to Paragonwiki, the Kismet: Accuracy (To-Hit) is a proc with 100% rate of fire. It lasts for 120 seconds after usage if used in a click power. In a toggle power like Afterburner, the effect is continuous while the toggle is on. Unfortunately, Afterburner's Only Affects Self means you'd get no benefit slotting it there. You can't use any attacks while it's active, and the Kismet drops if you turn it off. I'd suggest putting it in Hover instead, since you plan to take it.

I was afraid it would work out like that but so it goes. Thanks for the swift and useful replies!
