Try only a couple of drops--sound like you are flooding the atomizer and place the drops directly on the steelwool bridge--Happy Vaping Sun

depending on device and size the drops need to be adjusted to size of the mess not the atomiser biggest part use a 3ml dropper or smaller for example and you should do fine

How many drags or puffs should you get from 2 drops directly on the steelwool of the atomizer?

I know that many swear by dripping, but in my opinion the burn rate is toohigh on VG based e-liquid and it is not worth flooding the atomizer--but many here report they enjoy drip smoking and get about one analogs worth out of a couple of drops so everyone has their method. It is all whatever works for you---Happy Vaping--Sun

That depends on the model of atomizers. 2 drops on a 901 with get 5-8 good hits, while on a 801 will get 4-6. It has all to do with the amount of surface area on the heating coil.

I have a Kissbox pen type. I do not know the model # of the atomizer.

I use a Kissbox and two drops last me five minutes. I haven't counted the number of draws yet.

Do you constantly puff with every breath during the 5 minutes? Generally, I'll take maybe 2 or 3 puffs, then sit it down for 15 or 20 minutes. I guess maybe it dries out while sitting idle?

No, I don't draw every breath.

I've just counted and got ten good draws with a manual switch. Your results may vary, that wasn't a very accurate test.
