I never thought I'd like manuals, having to find & press that silly button each time. But then, I never thought I'd like any battery other than the shorties. Yesterday I received the new manual diamond regular length batteries that I accidentally ordered, thinking they were autos. And yes, I am loving them - though I still hate having to find & press that silly button each time.

So here is a typical Katz non-scientific review and some questions:
What I like is that the amount of vapour I get doesn't seem dependant on how hard I can inhale. I seem to be getting more TH, warmer vapour and even a more intense flavour.
Overall it's a more relaxing experience because I press the button, hear the strangely satisfying sizzle of the wow cart activating, inhale, allow the vapour to go to my lungs, then watch oodles of vapour when I exhale. Blissing out sitting on the deck vaping, probably overdoing the nicotine because I don't want to put it down.
Another weird thing (which again seems to be a Katz-specific thing), if I use an auto shorty diamond, the carto lasts as long as the battery, I have to change carto at the same time as the battery. If I use an auto regular diamond, the carto still lasts as long as the battery. I haven't had my manual regular diamond long, but I have just switched battery (which was flashing) and carto at the same time.
This makes no sense to me. What is going on here, with the battery+carto time thing? How can a carto either last only as long as an auto shorty or as long as a new regular manual?
Do manuals make the vapour warmer and give better TH ? Is it just the new diamond manuals? Or my imagination? If I used a shorty manual diamond or an XL manual diamond, would it change any of my experiences?
It's so funny that even after a year (9 months of V4L), I am still making new discoveries (which usually occur after I've ordered a heap of what was working before, of course
)
