OK. First lets go back a few years before RBA's, Genesis, Divers and all manner of rebuildables. What did we have? Cartos n atties. I have been religiously dripping heavy VG into and onto standard joyetech 510 and 306 atties for years. Vaporkings will sell you 10 (count em 10) Joyetech 510 or 306 atties for around 42 bucks. I've tried the genesis style and building coils is not for people with poor eyesight or shakey hands. Joyetech atties taste fantastic if you really want to taste yer juice the way it was meant to taste. I'm still trying to get comparable flavor from gennies n drippers but no luck so far.

Things have changed a lot. I never had good results with those 510 atomizers. Easy to flood. Easy to gunk. Can't drip a lot. Can't really wash and re-use them. Everything's better with an RDA. If you have poor eyesight and shaky hands, clearomizer can help you on that.

What the title says Haha. Im looking for the best atomizer for dripping. Ive usually stuck with cartomizers and clearomizers.

Boy is that ever a loaded question lol. My favorite is the Patriot (clone that is). I have the IGO-W (original), but the terminals either cut the wire when tightened or came loose, couldn't find a happy medium. I also have a Trident brass (clone), but the orings are EXTREMELY tight putting the cap on, and the adjustable airflow holes weren't large enough for me and it's rather difficult to drill through due to the design. With the Patriot, I have a deep juice well, plenty of room, good terminals, easy to drill out, and orings are awesome. So far my favorite!

I currently have an IGO-L, IGO-W, XL Nimbus clone, and four Smoktech Octopus... Of those devices, I use the Octopus' (octopi?) the most, they are easy to build and the first RDAs I ever purchased. I have the stock air holes plugged, with my own drilled into the cap, but they work really well and are very affordable.

The IGOs are really great drippers as well, with more room to build and a nice well for a cotton cloud/lots of juice but I haven't drilled out my IGO-W cap yet (the IGO-L was a pain - I don't have a drill press and did it by hand) so it doesn't see any use.

The XL Nimbus clone was purchased from Vape Happy with pre-drilled 1/8th inch air holes and is a pretty nice atty, but it is nearly impossible to hit without a direct lung inhale and hits pretty hard - I don't have many liquids lower than 12mg so it gets used sparingly.

I currently have a legit Patriot and a TOBH Atty on order through a group buy and have a Helios clone from Kidney Puncher on the way. I think I'm most excited about the TOBH.

Happy hunting!
