Just curious. Is the sidesho PCC a smart PCC where it will stop charging the battery once its fully charged or is it like the blu/volcano where it will discharge the battery if you don't unscrew it?

It's the same for now, they are working on a smart PCC. I am also trying to get them to make the new model to carry a fully assembled ecig as well.
Good to know. Reason I ask is my wife is wanting a new ecig that has a PCC. Problem IM seeing is she wouldn't think about taking the battery out after it was done charging so it would consistently be draining on her.
Any rough eta on the new PCC's?

i saw a review of one that has a PCC that shuts down when the batt is full. Try looking for the "Revolver" review

Revolver would have worked well for my wife but they don't ship to canada

That would be wonderful!!! Being able to fit a whole eEcig in a pack is one of the reasons people like Blu. If you could do this with a Sidesho, that would rock.

Well Speaking of the pcc, does anyone know if a manual battery will fit in the sidesho pcc?
YES & NO... the original PCC you can fit a Sidesho manual battery inside the charging slot, and the 902 battery in the charging slot. The last batch of PCC's I didn't realize till 2 days ago they added a plastic tube inside the charging slot, and this prevents the manual battery from charging, or the 902 from fitting in the charging slot.
The new order I had them remove the tube, so the new PCC's will be able to charge the manuals.
If you have the recent PCC, you can remove the plastic tube with a quick 5min mod.

Hmm is this a difficult mod to preform correctly? I have no idea how to even begin removing it. Anybody have a video of this or detailed instructions?
I'd love to have manuals with this pcc...it would then be miles ahead of the 510 with that horribly small pcc.
The newer ones will be able to charge manual in PCC without any mods. I didn't even realize the last shipment of PCC's had this tube inside, they were not on any of the original ones. I had to open one up a few days ago to find out why the manual was not fitting inside the charging slot like it does in my original Sidesho PCC. I figured it out, and it only took 5min to fix it.
What you need.
1. needle nose pliers
2. a long skinny razor blade like the picture below
3.superglue
I am not sure why they added this extra tube in the PCC, it really makes no sense. They are not on any of the original PCC’s, and this tube prevents you from charging the manual battery inside the PCC.
I suggest you find one of these cheap razor blades because they are long and skinny. You need to work the blade down the front & back inside the PCC, you need to break the glue contact. The inner PCC is only held in with glue, so you don't have to worry about breaking any wire connections.
Then grab the needle nose pliers, and pull out the PCC. You will see a plastic tube glued in the charging slot, remove the tube, and scrape off any glue residue with the razor.
The last thing you need to do is put some superglue on the inside, around the middle of the case on the front/back side. Just push the inner PCC part back in the case, and squeeze the PCC on the glued ends for a few seconds and you are done.

Thanks for the heads up, Kaeo. I opened my PCC and easily removed the useless white tube a few minutes ago. "I am not sure why they added this extra tube in the PCC, it really makes no sense." And I can sense your frustration, haha. It serves absolutely no purpose so far as I can tell.
Thanks for the mod kaeo! Easy fix to fit a manual, and it looks like the other tube (where the charged battery goes) could be done away with with a simple hack saw.
Does anyone know the model number to the PCC's that DON'T fit manual batteries? I just had a manual battery get stuck in my PCC tonight. I've had this kit for a week and it hasn't happened until now, which is strange. It ripped the button off my manual!
I ordered this kit very recently, so I don't see why I would have one of those faulty PCC's.
My PCC model #: MV-108
Has a white tube in the charging hole. The tube only goes down about half way to the charger, then it opens up...

The sidesho PCC isn't cut to handle manual batts. The 902 is. I assume that you PCC has a matte black fininsh?
Yes, it has a matte black finish. Why would Tony sell a hybrid kit with a manual battery that can't fit inside the PCC? Furthermore, why would he do so with absolutely no warning? Nowhere on the website was I warned about the PCC not fitting the manual. Even in the actual package, the "manual" and paperwork said nothing of a manual not fittng in the PCC.
I doubt Tony would be selling kits under false impressions...

The Matte black PCC can charge the manual battery, the inner hole is big enough to fit/charge the manual battery. You could have got a PCC that had the top layer foam that positioned incorrectly, and might be causing the issue.
Shoot me an email and I will take care of it, info@modernvapor.com

Sorry, Didn't mean to mess you up. I thought that was why the 902 PCC was cut differnt. Sorry again.
My only complaint with the sidesho is that although you can charge the manual battery in the PCC, you can't store it in the charging slot; the lid won't shut without pushing the battery down to charge mode.
I'm not sure what to do here as I don't like the automatic batteries; I wanted to buy more manuals but am put off that I can only keep one in my pack at a time.

I'm thinking of trying the new non-charging case for this reason, but wish I didn't have to.
I work security at a bar, and don't believe I vape nearly as much as most people, so one battery is usually almost enough to get my through my shift; so with having two I would be fine but it's much more reassuring knowing I can recharge one if I want.
