801/4072/112 Manual Batts???

[rsngfrce]

1) Is there any such beast as a manual battery that works with the penstyle attys? An actual switch like on my 501?

Hey, you're gonna confuse people if you keep calling it the 501... it's the 510...

Good question! I would think though that it varies according to the amount of use. Still, good question!

Please explain what the difference is between a regular and a manual battery. I know there is switch of some type on the manual, but what does it do?

On an "automatic" or "regular" battery the atomizer is activated by drawing through the mouth piece. On a "manual" battery the atomizer only activates when you press the switch on the body of the battery. Drawing through the mouth piece doesn't do anything.

The manuals are generally preferred because 1) they're sealed, meaning that no juice can dribble into the battery and ruin the switch and 2) the manual switch allows the user to pre-heat the atomizer before drawing through the mouth piece, giving a better initial hit. On the down side, manual batteries don't have a cutoff, so some people crank them for 8 - 10 or more seconds, which can lead to burned out atomizers.

I've had lots of 801 battery and atomizer problems and think I might try the manula switch. Any idea what the life span of a switch is?

I have the 112 from bestecigs, 801 from Heavens Gifts and some 4072 attys from dietsmokes.

Anyhoo

Everything is completely interchangable, good so far. But the batts are driving me nuts. This has all been posted before... short cut-offs, wacky LED's, turning on and firing up the atty for no apparent reason and so on.

2 questions then:

1) Is there any such beast as a manual battery that works with the penstyle attys? An actual switch like on my 501?

2) Of the passthroughs currently available, is there any particular one that will work with all of the mentioned attys?

I love my 501 to distraction but some flavours just taste better from the penstyle atty.

Thanks all

Eastmall is carrying a manual for the 801 and will have manuals for the 901's soon i hear.

I have contacted either vaporcountry or vaporstation (can't remember which one...on my iPhone so it's really time consuming to check) about their 801 manual batts and pts and he informed me that they are NOT sealed. I haven't received my 801 yet but I hear/read that nonsealed batts can be difficult. I would love to hear of any updates on sealed manual batts
