dripping e liquid - E-Cigarette Forum

hi all,

been reading a lot on here about dripping and also about how it can clog up the atomiser.

my question is why would you put it straight onto the atomiser which will eventually cause gunk to build up rather than simply add a few drops to a cartridge that has run out and thus greatly reducing the risk of gunk building up in the atomiser!

i added a few drops to a spent cartridge and i got tons of vapour!

I do that as well.
The thing is the liquid drains into the atomizer any way, so no harm is being done more than the cart provides.

I think what needs to happen with these ecigs is someone needs to design an auto dripper.

Some of us prefer dripping with certain devices as they perform better that way. Some e-cigs are fine with carts and some are better dripped

If you know what you are doing there is no reason that it should clog an atomiser.

By adding a few drops to the automizer their is less chance of it burning out...so it might pre-long your automizer life if you just drip it every second cart like i do ..... I have had the SAME CART for about 4 weeks now, and the same DSE901 automiser .... so far so good...... Just remember not to drip your automizer to much as it will leak in to your battery and you WILL NEED to buy a new one .... I have found that 2 drops into the automizer of the super mini and the DSE901 is enough if your smoking it with a full cart ......Hope that helps.

Cartridges on classic ecigs and an ecigar have never worked well for me, they just doesn't seem to wick into the atomiser as they should. I drip because it gives better vapour and for me is less hassle than maintaining cartridges. Once you get the balance between too dry and too wet it is more consistent.

I've just started using a DSE901 mini and the cartridges wick well on it so I just top them off. It could be because they are smaller or something and the eliquid comes out properly.
