About dripping...

[Hate]

On my 801, I have the bridge and mesh removed. For me it is just a matter of being able to see whats going on in there. Seems easier to change flavors as well as there is less material to hold on to flavors.

Is your atty gurgling when the vapor/flavor tapers off? Sometimes I think I need to drip, and then it hits even worse than before. Its because Im flooding it. Now when I think I need to drip, ill listen for the gurgle. No gurgle, I reload. I average 5-6 really good pulls, then it tapers off. I take really long drags though...remaining habit of using a 3v device.

I just watched a youtube how-to vid on that yesterday and happen to be waiting for some attys in the mail. I didn't know until recently about removing the wicking material and ran across the bridge removal mod at the same time.

What's your oppinion/assesment on dripping with the wicking removed only vs removing the bridge also?

Personally I see no real difference. The mesh is what holds the liquid, the bridge only helps to form the mesh over the coil.
I had an atty with mesh removed and bridge intact, no big deal, no difference noticed to me.
Currently I have I atty with mesh intact and one with bridge removed. No one better than the other, try doing one atty each way and dripping and you will see the differences between them, also dependant on the juices as some seem to taste better on one as opposed to the other.
Its all a process of experimentation and personal discovery. All part of the fun.

Remember to remove and blow out the atty when you're done with a vaping session. Some left juice is always present and could clog the atty.

Most people only blow out their atomizer once per day.
Unless, of course, it gets flooded.


Lots of people do it at night before bed.
But I do it when I get up in the morning instead.

Been doing that for at least 6 months now, using the same atomizer the whole time.

I haven't really counted them, but I don't think I'm getting 10 hits...maybe 8 tops. Hmmmm.

Depends on how big your drops are and how big your drags are.

If I put three drops on my atomizer it is close to being a little flooded.
And I will only get about 6 or 7 good drags off that.

I like my atomizer to run kind of dry, so I only drip two drops.
And then I get about 4 good drags.
Drip two more drops, and get another 4 good drags.

That is my new cigarette break.


I like to take big long drags though.
I grew up smoking other things.

See, all so many different ways that work for different people.
Gotta find the way that you are satisfied and easiest for you.
There is no one exact way thats the best.
Such is the vapor's voyage of zen. Each much seek and find their inner vape.

I just started dripping a couple of days ago...am I supposed to hear gurgling when I drag on it? The first time I did that I thought I was getting close to flooding it....?

Yes, close to, but not quite flooded yet.

I don't like filling mine until it gurgles because if it gurgles I get juice in my mouth.
Also, I find the drag to be a lot smoother if it is not gurgling at all.

The price I pay is having to put in one less drop than I might be able to get in there.

Its ok if it is gurgling, just dont drip when its gurlging, even if vapor production and taste makes you think u need to.
