    i think the general rule is manuel is better. it depends on how you use it. auto is eazer but brakes are more apparent in the battery and manuals you can burn out attys

    Manual is much better. I like to control my drags, not rely on a circuit board to do it.

    Thumbs down 801 manual poorly implemented

    I like *some* manual batteries, e.g., the 501 and Prodigy. But I am *not* impressed by the 801 manual. I ordered one to try out. When it worked, it generated less vapor, flavor, and throat hit than the auto batt. Sometimes the button was sticky and difficult to engage. And after two days, it got stuck inside the battery casing, never to be seen again.

    No thanks.

    wait, so what about the BE112 manual batts from bestecig? They have the same connector and voltage, so it would seem they use the same charger. Anybody had any experience with those?

    Not that I'm going to wait for a reply... I'll just go ahead and get one

    And then report back here! Please do let us know how you like it.

    For myself, I just ordered an M201 (atty and auto battery). I will report back my impressions.

    I've been using my DSE801 manual starter kit I got from Heavengifts 2 months ago and have not lost an atty nor had any issues with the batt or pushbutton. I only drip with my 801 as they are notorious for sweating cartridges that have wicking issues no matter the mod but are FANTASTIC for dripping...

    I also ordered extra 801 batts and attys that I rotate (I have only rotated with ONE and haven't checked out the others, they're back-up) with no issues! I have also ordered all my 510 stuff from them and Dekang liquid is 30ml for $9!!

    Happy with their customer service as well, Wayne answers my emails promptly and seems concerned about customer satisfaction...lately I've been enamored with my new VK for convenience at work and on the road, but I will continue to purchase my hardware for other PV's and liquid from Heavengifts!

    Default Manual BE112

    Well, my manual batts from bestecig showed up today, and they look good!
    It's a bit odd that my USB passthrough works so much better than my standard automatic batts, even though they're both auto.

    Anyway, I'm charging a manual up now; will report back later

    Thanks, Glitterati! Looking forward to your report.

    My first impression of the M201 is not positive, but I wouldn't draw conclusions from it. The atty died after three days (but Shawn has graciously agreed to replace it). Probably just a "lemon."

    The battery is fine; in fact it works with my DSE801 and BE112 atomizers and can be recharged in my screw-in charger. I didn't expect that. [As advertised, the reverse does not work, i.e., 201 atty with 801 or Prodigy battery.]

    Report:

    BE112 Manual Batts =

    Don't know what else to say. They work exactly as expected, and they charge in my standard BE112 charger. Their total capacity is rated slightly under that of the standard auto, but I have yet to wear down the one I started on hours ago. Also, the button is nice and crisp (at least, compared to my 512).

    Basically, next time you need to stock up on atties, I'd highly recommend getting a couple of these to try out.
