Atomizer and clearometer. When to use?

[dherrington]

Hi. I am new to this and have been posting a lot of questions. If it is proving annoying, let me know.

Why would you want to use an atomizer over a regular clearometer or cartomizer? What are the benefits?

They can be used for dripping, which gives a better flavor. They also tend to last longer. Can easily change flavors. They don't hold much liquid and require topping off rather frequently, which can be a pain while driving or otherwise busy.

Some find that Clearomizers will mute flavor or prove otherwise finicky. I suppose same goes for Cartomizers. Though both hold larger amounts of liquid. Clearomizers can be repaired and reused, cartomizers & atomizers will eventually have to be replaced.

Hope this helps, no problem in asking questions we've all gotta learn

The only really good way to use an atomizer is to direct drip, well, unless you are talking about rebuildable atomizers which are a whole other ballgame. Some of the devices such as the Ego-T, Eroll, Ego-C have an atomizer designed to use a small mouthpiece "tank" as well I haven't had any personal experience with any of those.

The advantage of atomizers are:
They don't hold a lot of liquid, so they are perfect for flavor sampling.
They give a clean taste (no polyfill, no wicking) (well ss mesh wick unless you get a bridgeless one).

The idea with dripping is that you drip a few (3-4) drops depending on the atomizer, vape it and then put in a few more drops.

They were originally meant to be used with a cartridge that contained polyfill or foam which held the juice, but I don't know anyone that still uses them like that as it's a pretty poor vape.

Atomizers are also good for testing new flavors, instead filling up a tank and finding out you hate the stuff.

I'm pretty new at this myself. I tried clearomizers and cartomizers, and for a few months there I loved my cartos. But I still smoked. I couldn't get away from cigarettes completely. Direct dripping on an atomizer is the only thing to kill my cravings for a cigarette completely. I get a stronger throat hit, better flavor and more of a nicotine buzz.
