Are there any official rules for a Reduced Duration limitation?

I can think of several types of Affliction where you might want to use a shorter timeframe than 1 min/pt, but I looked through both Basic Set and Powers and couldn't find anything. Am I just missing something or is there actually no rules for this?

Power-Ups Limitations 8: Limitations has it. page 16 called fittingly enough "Reduced Duration".

Thank you! I do have the Power-Ups series, but for some reason I didn't think to check.

Your welcome, glad to have helped. I checked Powers first myself but I knew I had seen and used it. I love the appendix in that book, really makes it easy to find most things.

Originally appearing in Psi Powers, I think.

PU4 and PU8 are handy references to have if you build abilities. They're like mini-Compendiums for modifiers, collecting lots of traits from elsewhere.

(One of the benefits of the hypothetical all-electronic 5e would be an always up-to-date and complete list in one place.)
