Hi there,

So I recently decided to give LR attys a go to try out dripping and good gosh.. I hated the process.

Have been using cartos for awhile now, both LR and standards but I just can't quite seem to wrap my head around the process. Read heaps of reviews mentioning the perks of dripping but nada.. I don't seem to be experiencing any of them

Anyone experiencing the same sentiments as me? am now stuck with 4 fresh Joye LR 510 attys. Boo!

I only use atomizers for trying/testing out new juice flavours. Otherwise will be my mod tanks which is my daily to go setup.
Too lazy to keep dripping all the time. Specially when while driving. Cannot imagine the need to vape in the car while the atty is dry. Say me no skill or wadever but losing my concentration on the road over dripping a few juice into the atty is a big NO NO to me.

Hello Fudgeball!

I'm not really that enthused with the whole dripping process either!

It's convenient to drip an ATOMIZER in order to try a new flavor; or to change from the flavors that you prefer to vape for a quick taste of something different. It's so much faster to clean out an atty (just run some water through, blow it out, and it will dry in a short time).

With a cartomizer there's a longer wait for the poly-fill to dry, so I reserve them for my favorite vapors!
I LOVE THE CARTOMIZERS because they are refillable and so easy to use. They hold enough E-liquid to enjoy the vapors for a longer time without a lot of muss & fuss!
They're also great for carrying several filled; simply, twist one off and twist another onto the battery, and get on with life!
:vapor: And the vapors!

I do use a drip tip as a mouth-piece :evil: on both the atomizers and the cartomizers.

I want to say that I really love my Halo batteries!
My Pass-through MANUAL, NO CUT OFF is wonderful! I get a good flavor and lots of vapor, and once again a simple process! No problems with low battery or charges!
I also got a Halo Element, MANUAL (MEGA-85mm) 280 mAh. Both are slim and elegant, and I really enjoy them.
Both really give me great throat hits and tasty vapors. Thanks Halo!

HAPPY :vapor: VAPING!

NOT WHILE DRIVING!

You sure got that right!
Since there WILL be some Lame-Brain Drip-n-Drivers out there:
HEY! USE A CARTOMIZER WHILE DRIVING!
LIVE TO VAPE AND VAPE TO LIVE!

(Or at least, give the rest of us a break, will ya?)

You're definitely not alone, I never found the draw to dripping. I could understand it when some of the cartos we now have available weren't around. i.e carts required constant refilling to keep wet and avoid dry hits, might as well drip at that point.

I compared dripping a while back with ce2's and there was almost no difference to me in terms of vapor and flavor.

my theory is that the hardcore dripper types are all like vaping snobs who have it in their heads that dripping somehow leads to better flavor over a cartomizer...they are the starbucks customers of the vaping world...i dont really get it either...the taste in dripping is marginally better if it at all, combine that with the inconvenience and i wonder why anyone does this at all....i've recently heard something about 306 atomizers though and i'd like to check it out and might....because well...im curious

Never been in a starbucks and I'm cheap and I'm sure not a snob lol. Depends what people like I do believe.

I am a starbucks snob, but that was after I tried every brand on the super market shelf. I primarily drip and it is the flavor and heat of the hit I find I like. Plus, I can rotate through flavors much smoother than having to replace cartos. Don't get me wrong, i use cartomizers allot for flavors that will never leave the attie and for desert flavors that are once a day and that's it vapes. I don't know about snobbish though. Thats a little harsh. I am of the opinion to each their own. Also, similar to coffee and analogs it all about habits and rituals sometimes. For coffee I grind before I make a pot and weigh to perfection. For dripping it is really a nice calming ritual and for me, I love the flavor and heat as I said.

To each their own, don't judge, we all do our own thing!!! In backpacking we have a phrase 'Hike your own hike' I think vaping needs its own phrase 'Vape your own Vape'!:blink:
