Default I Just Dripped for the First Time.

Oh yeah, this is the good stuff...

Well, first, last night and today were bad 'cause I was out of everything and had to smoke some of my analog smokes. Don't really like 'em any more. Vaping is better. Yeah, that quick. Less than a week.

But... ran home and my E-Juice kit from Johnson Creek was there. Nice! Packaging very secure, shipping obviously quick. It all comes in a handy little rubbermaid type container.

Alright, but I'm still not sure what the syringe is all about.

So, filled a dry cart first with vanilla ice cream. First hits not so good, some got in my mouth, then tastiness, but didn't seem to last too long. Did another with I think 4 drops. Better. And then.... dare I drip on the atomizer? Of course!

Took the wool out of the mouthpiece, put a drop right on there. Nice!

Of course, there seems all sorts of controversy about this, cleaning atomizers, etc. The Johnson Creek brochure says they really only last so long to begin with....

I have two carts here I've topped off, plugged and am letting sit for a while. But the drip right on the atomizer is pretty good I must say.

DEFINITELY better than tobacco, imho.

I have been using the same atomizer for 2 weeks now and have not done anything other than dripping.

Dripping to me seems like the only way to vape. I think the fact that the atomizer stays wet prolongs the life, and you can tell when the thing needs more drops by the heat increase and change in flavor.
Every day I blow it out to clean it, then drip 5 drops on the atomizer to make sure its wet before using it. The first to draws gurgle, the 3rd is heaven.

I've got the drips!

...sorry, couldn't resist.. haha

I have been solely dripping for quite a while now, and wouldn't do it any other way.

IMO.. The flavor is more intensified, and the amount of vapor is increased by a noticeable amount.

I <3 Dripping.

I remove the cart, and use just the cap. I don't think it really matters, but that is just my personal preference.

This post gave me the guts to try dripping for the first time. I haven't been getting any good hits today for some reason, and dripping finally gave me one! Yay dripping!!! lol

for some reason my generic pen-style (Stainless steel from Jane's shop) will start producing a burnt taste - even with a relatively new cart and fully charged batts. If I open it up and drip 2-3 drops directly on the steel wool, the burnt taste almost always goes away, and sometimes stays away even after the 2-3 drops have been vaporized. I'm not sure why this happens, but I guess I can't complain. I also kind of like dripping; it adds an extra step to the process, but it makes it kind of like smoking an analogue cig where, instead of using a lighter to get going, you have to open it up and drip.

I like a little of both at the same time :-)

Gotta be careful with dripping though, because it's easy to flood the battery & atomizer if overdoing it.
