Anybody prefer dripping?

[tj99959]

I'm loving my rba dripper. It really does deliver the goods. I finally just last week got a Reo. It's a bottom feeder that seems to have survived in popularity a long time and I figured what could be the big difference between bottom dripping and top dripping in the vape. Well so far I don't see any difference in the premade Atties (510 joye tech) which can be used in either application. I am, however going to try to find a rba for bottom feeders now and I'm not in a terribly big hurry because I have my dripper rba. I prefer it, dripping, from top or bottom! Ha ha. And with rba as definite 1st choice for delivering more of the goods in the vape. Meaning WTA as well as nic for me and I don't like wasting any of that juice because I find it's so expensive compared to DIY. What kind of Atties are you interested in? What ones do you like the most? Just wondering

Get this for your Reo. Most RBA's are to large to fit in the Reo drip well. Keith has them on order, so they should be back in stock soon.

Ahhh! Good Times.

My name is Eikon and I am a dripaholic.

I did the whole foam thing, then I tea bagged for a while, thought the straw would be my salvation, but none of these things ever really worked. And then the early cartomizers came along, well I guess they worked OK, if you were into the whole vaping a dirty gym sock thing. I finally gave up on the whole thought of something other than a bottle holding my juice, and turned to dripping.

Then came the 'CE1' and the first generation of Clearos with there promise of clean flavor and the ability to hold an entire .8ml of juice, but soon all you were left with was an empty carto and a pocket full of juice. So, disillusioned, I went back to my old friend dripping. Even when a guy they called The Most Angry Pirate came along with his newfangled MAP-Tank thing, my only thought was, 'Great 5mls of dirty gym socks dripping down my leg'.

The trauma of those early days was so harsh that only in the past few months I have been able to even think about tanks. I find I enjoy the Genesis style RBAs. The whole process of rubbing my fingertips raw to rolling wick, then burning them to a crisp oxidizing the wick and getting the coils just right, then banging my head against the wall because it's still shorting, to be, well, therapeutic.

But I find that even in this age of enlightenment, this age of rebuildables, I prefer drippers. Give me an $8 Phoenix style over a $200 Genesis style, and I'll be a happy vaper.

YES I AM A DRIPAHOLIC. And I am proud to be a dripaholic!!!

Just remember, NEVER Drip and Drive.

(I am exaggerating the Genesis setup experience, I do Love my Genes, I use them in the car all the time, like I said NEVER, EVER DIP AND DRIVE! Dripping and driving is probably more dangerous than texting while driving)

Excellent summary of my past year! Except I would have to through in a month with an Ego-T near the beginning. I'm right with you on the dripping Eikon! I also have a couple of Chinese Cobra clones that work, but I have a AGA-T2 that won't give me a break from hotspots, so I stick with the dripping RBA's and I'm happy. I have a TBC-2 I got for free, a Phoenix I paid $7 for, and a new Smok RDA that was about $9, and I'm loving them! I also have a couple Vapage Vmods for going out and about, and I'm thinking of selling all the rest. It's been quite a journey- Including the batting! I have 10 new Ego Mega atty's I'm going to put on the classies (I wonder if they'll sell)

I've had my dripper 4 days now, and I love this little thing. Now the pain is getting something that tastes as good for the road...

Try a bottom feeder like a Vapage Vmod. it's like dripping from the bottom and they go on sale from time to time, or on the classies.

 

[BlazinZ28]

Yea I was trying to convince my friend to buy a REO 2.1 and sell me her old one.. but thats not happening

That is definitely going to be my next purchase

 

[Sesshomaru]

I like to drip when its a flavor that i do not want to vape all day long. plus its a great way to try a new flavor.

 

[beanpusher]

I started with a carto tank. That lasted about a day. Then went to clearomizers. That lasted about a week. I tried a lr bridgeless dripping atty and loved it but only last about 2 weeks. I got into rba drippers and loved em even more. Now i can rebuild my own atty for less than a dollar. When dripping isnt convenient i screw on a genesis. Gennys are great. Easy to refill and change my all day vapes. I wish i had switched from analogs a long ago. Theres so many flavors out there who would of thought e cigs would be so satisfying. Keep calm and vape on!

 

[beanpusher]

Just wanted to add that with dripping vapor, throat hit, and flavor is top shelf vs. Cartos and clearos. The nic delivery is intense. I have cut down to 6mg from 24mg.

I love my Vapage VMod 2.0. It's certainly overpriced for the build quality, but I got mine during a 50% off promo and will buy another if they have this promo again. Sometimes I use the atomizer, other times I use the Smok super shorty cartomizer which is almost as good as dripping and a lot less hassle.

Went down the whole road here too.
Though I still use my eGo - c cartrages as my day to day carry vape gear, at home, it's the Vision ET RBA or the Smok RBA.
I also use the R Tank if I'm outside working and I need to carry extra juice around.
My Natural mechanical and my eVic are loaded with RBAs for dripping.
Like the flavor and Vape production.

I have an Ego T system which hasn't seen any action for a few months. It was my first PV and I liked it quite a bit when I was more of a newbie. I also have an R Tank. When i first got it I couldn't use it much because the wick holes were a little too tight and it had wicking problems, so I drilled them out once size larger and it works better. I think I'm gonna drill it out one more size larger, then it'll wick really well. I like the way the R Tank is designed, once the wicks stay good and wet all the time it'll be a great little tank for the $'s. It's like an RBA with a tank.

5th day with an e-cig and 5th day drippin. I bought some blank cartridges, pulled out the polyfill and luv it, though that is goin to be for home only

 

[Vince159]

I have a question. I never heard of this... you guys are using blank cartridges for dripping? by pulling the polyfill out?

 

[DietSalem]

I exclusively drip. It's an insult to the juice to vape it out of something that will dampen it's true potential and flavor. It's like drinking a soda with your cuban cigar.

Rebuildables are nice, but I personally have not found a rebuildable that can hold a candle to the HH357 - the holy grail of atomizers. Once you learn how to use that thing properly the vapor production and flavor are remarkable. It's like switching from cigarettes to vaping all over again. A provari with a cartotank on it is like a gas station disposable compared to a good device powering a remarkable HH357.

So yes, I prefer dripping. =)

 

[indianajames]

I have a question. I never heard of this... you guys are using blank cartridges for dripping? by pulling the polyfill out?

No, these are atomizers without the polyfill. You drip the juice directly into it (3 drops) and vape away. I'm a n00b, too, and have been doing this for a few weeks now. Good stuff.

i love dripping in my phoenix rba...lets me switch flavors so easily

 

[espio]

I recently picked up an SMOKtech RDA Octopus and a Vision Hybrid atomizer with the intent of having something to sample flavors at the juice bar.

Have played with the Octopus a bit, very clean flavor, and lots of vape. I am really impressed so far. Will probably save the Vision Hybrid for the next trip to the store.

Between a new Aga-T+, the Octopus, a burny-tasty Vision vivi Nova, and a roomate that I converted to ecigs I'm just about out of juice and can't play with anything much at the moment... Time to dig out those old bottles of icky flavors I abandoned.

 

[MikeJA]

I did prefer dripping until I tried out an rba. Now, I only drip on an iAtty to test juices, then fill a tanked rba. For me, the first vape of off a genesis rba was an eye-opener. Truly the best of both worlds. The convenience of a tank with the perfomance of direct dripping.
