I know you get more vapor from a manual battery, I have a manual M401 and I've experienced this. But, I just prefer the whole "feel" of an automatic battery. So my question is, excluding all manual models, which PV has the best vapor production? All I've used so far are M401/2/3, and they're fine, but sometimes the draw is a little hard and I don't get a lot of vapor.

I'm considering a pen style, a 901, or maybe a J118 (like Litecig's VX2.) I don't care about throat hit. Bigger cart would be more important to me than battery life between recharges. I've thought about a KR808D but I worry about the sheer cost of cartomizers (though I know they can be refilled a few times.)

I'd appreciate any suggestions.

510 auto produces almost as much vapor as the manual as it doesn't have a quick cutoff and no 'time out' so you can build up a lot of vapor like the manual.

Try this less expensive starter kit. If you don't like it you could sell it for almost the same price in classifieds. A lot of vendors are out of black 510's right now.

email them and have them put an auto batt in the kit rather than the manual. or just buy an extra batt and make it an auto

You are going to hear a lot of different things from people. I have been very satisfied with the EVO from innovapor which is the same as what we have.

Cartomizers are good for vapor production as well but the cost can make vaping expensive. Since you have an M402 style already, my advice would be to try a cartomizer and see how you like it.

I hope that helps.

i got the 102 and use VG. Actually I got several of them. Some attys provide more vapor than others. I keep a low producing one with me to use in public places.
I also got a 901 that I use at home when I'm wired to a wall and it doesn't give as much vapor as the 102, but it's okay and I don't have to use the auto batteries---trying to limit my use of those.

I received an auto battery last night in error, when I ordered a manual (for my 510). I notice no decline in vapor, throat hit, or performance. I am extremely pleased and will be getting a few more autos...

Good to know. As I mentioned, I have had similar experiences with the 510 auto but be very careful not to drip when using the auto - I've fried two autos now - I'm so used to putting two drops on the atty. While I still have two auto batts at the computer for typing, my battery purchases for the 510 will be exclusively the mega batts from TW. I do have several of the 'regular manuals' for a stash, so I have them if I'm going out and feel like a 510 instead of the Janty Stick, where I can utilize the PCC, etc.

But, this is why I say if someone has a 510 and wants to experience an auto, get the 510 auto - it either has no cutoff or the cutoff time is such that I've never run into it and of course with no cutoff there's no frustrating 'time out' either. The performance of both the manual and auto are very similar. Just don't drip with the auto.

Just wanted to add my two cents... I have tried the 901, 401, 510 and several others, but of ALL my ecigs, my HANDS DOWN favorite is the J118 (or VX2) from Litecig!! It seems to be such an underappreciated model for some reason. I just love it!! It gives great vapor and throat hit, great flavor and has a nice easy draw. I like my 401 and 901 a lot, too... don't really like my manual 510 that much, (unlike almost every other forum member, lol), but I keep going back to my J118. I can just about guarantee you WON'T be disappointed by it if you give it a try!
