Yes Mephisto only sell auto's but they're pretty damn potent and are hardy plants.
You aren't lying, my Strawberry Nugget looked like she was starting to flower way early but she has along with the other, the most stumpy lot I've seen but they do go wide.
Part of the reason I don't use them is because of the problem @green_machine described with the oven eventually getting oily and not conducting properly. This happened with my Mighty which is now unusable. I've used Dynavap exclusively for a few years now.
I also think that problem has been fixed with the Roffu. Replacement metal or glass ovens are available. I don't pay much attention to vapes anymore but I've never seen this type of design.
