No they are like that. The automatic shut off is set at about 97% SOC. To get a full charge on eg a pair of 6s as a 12v bank, you need the manual to climb to the 15+v range. That means you need to be there to shut it off.
You could use the auto type most times and just use the manual once a month to get to full SOC as an approach.
The VEC1093DBD charger is neat, where it does normal auto charging but also you can set it to Equalize to 15.7v, and it is auto in that too, so you don't have to watch over it and it will get the 100% charge done by itself with no worries.
