So for the longest time I have been dripping with a 510 atty at around 2.0 to 2.2 ohm with different variations of box mods like the MadVapes 3 AA VV box mod and certainly enjoyed the results, usually at around 4.5 to 5v. I consistently got good flavor, vapor production, and throat hit. Recently I decided after much thought to give the bottom feeding world a try and obtained and Ali'i VV. I have tried this mod with the same 510 as well as a bottom feeding hybrid 2.0ohm mod from COV and I don't get good results. I feed it correctly, don't flood it, and it seems almost like i have to feed it for each drag i take and even then the liquids taste different (almost watered down), the throat hit is dramatically less, and the vapor production is simply ok. I see so many people on the forum that just SWEAR by their bottom fed mods like the REO, Ali'l, Hogmod, RSM, and on and on. Am I the only person that prefers dripping over bottom fed. I was hoping that the bottom fed would have similar performance as dripping so that i could finally stop carrying around juice bottles but the way it is working right now I think I am going to sell my bottom fed mods and stick with dripping. Any advice out there? Have any others noticed a dramatic performance difference between dripping and bottom feeding?
It can be easy to flood atty's with a bottom feeder and it takes some practice to get the action right. But once you have there should be little if any difference.
