Atomizers vs Cartomizers

[Horselady154]

I'm confused. Ok, here's the question. Why is it ok, even desirable, to drip directly on the coil with an atomizer, but is a major no-no with a cartomizer? From what I've read, getting liquid down the center hole, therefore on the coil, will drastically shorten the life of the cartomizer, if not burn the materials surrounding it. But, it is the thing to do with an atomizer. Isn't a cartomizer just an atomizer with filler material up higher to feed it? Why is it ok with one, but not the other?

Please unconfuse me.

They sell drip tips for cartos... so I guess it IS OK to drip into cartos.

The universe does not implode if you get the juice into the middle hole in a carto, contrary to the popular belief. It will cause slight gurgle, can cause you to slurp up some liquid into your mouth, and it may leak from the bottom.

That said, when you use carto on a bottom feeder, that's exactly where the liquid comes through. More so, if you get the hang of how much liquid to put there, you get better flavor, since it gets directly onto the coil. Tastes almost as clear as a good atomizer.

That's what I've been doing lately. It made me realize that I really, really, want an atomizer.

I just bought a VV Bogger Box Bottom Feed the other choices are Reo Grande vv which is the Gold Standard but very expensive and a Vapage Xl [Usually you can find a 50% off Coupon] so at $60.00 reasonables.

The taste from dripping on a Atomizer or using Bottom Feed on an Atomizer is the most flavorful full vape. Polyester and Wicking found in Cartomizers and Clearomizers mutes the flavors.

The bottom feeder turns dripping a labor intensive process into just a squeeze of the bottle.
