    Default Manual Switch 901

    Okay, I know the obvious answer would be the SD but I'm not made of money. Don't get me wrong, Trog's design is beautiful and I've heard the craftsmanship is superb but I just can't fork over that kinda cash.

    Besides, it's not really the battery power I'm after...

    I have yet to use a manual switch but it's been recommended. I very much like the look of the Kissbox classic but I've been told many times it's best for dripping and I'm no dripper....me likes me carts.

    I suppose I could try a penstyle but even then some say they're better for dripping and also they don't deliver flavor like a 901.

    With the addition of USB batts, battery duration isn't really a concern for me anymore so even without trying a penstyle or any other model I would love to see a manual switch, much like the Kissbox classic's (switch between battery and atomizer), for the 901.

    Here's to dreaming....or maybe I'm just blind and haven't seen what I'm looking for....

    Before you invest too heavy in manual switch I would recomment you to try it first on something cheaper. I for one do not like it at all. It sort of destroys the smoking pleasure by the necessity to remember to press a switch every time you want a drag.

    Some people like switches and some people don't. I for one use a janty KB all the time and a screwdriver both with manual buttons it doesn't bother me.

    Yes, and you do not know before you try it for real. I chose manual switch cigar on purpose. I read about manuals and how good they were and I thought is was a great idea. But it was not. At least not for me. That is why she should try it first before she spends too much money.

    While I don't think I'll be a big fan of pressing a button I believe I'll like draw better. When I smoked analogs, I always took quick drags and that's not easy to do with an ecig. A few members have told me that having the manual switch makes it a little easier because you don't have to wait for the atomizer to warm up. We'll see...

    Parked - are you putting together a whole new cig or just making a switch for the 901? All I really want is a switch for my precious little 901. heh

    Oh and Frankie, no hard feelings, but I'm a dude. haha

    When I first tried the manual switch, I wasn't crazy about it mainly because I couldn't remember to use it and it was a pain sucking and getting nothing. But as I got used to it, it was great. Yes, easy draw with lots of vapor

    I've invested in both a 901 and a Kissbox classic so far. I must say I prefer the Kissbox just because of the manual switch, for the reasons you have heard. It really is more like normally inhaling a cigarette. If it wasn't for the Kissbox's major drawback (not performing too well with carts) I would never use the 901, but I get tired of dripping after a while and also its a lot easier to use in the car.

    So I would second the request for a 901 manual switch.

    I can see no reason to replace intelligent microprocessor heater control by "manual stupidism".

    1 manufacturer providing such nonsense with even more stupid marketing brand names which could lead to poisonous vapour and results in many uncontrollable system reliability and quality issues is far enough IMHO. Crap design.

    The right way is to advance development of the automatic µC heater control.

    I hope the other engineers here will second that.
