Cheap 510 (eGo) Atty for Dripping/Testing

[JohnWillyson]

Hi all.

I can only seem to find expensive ($7-9) attys for a 510... about the price of a 5-pack of cartos! Which I dont need because the tank system is good for me...for the moment.

I want to drip juices... when testing new ones, or when I have a craving for one but I dont wanna fill a tank.

Eventually when these attys burn out, I will switch to the leak-proof tankomizers from gotvapes or somewhere else... For now, I just need to test juices.

Do I have to spend that much on an atty? And LR ones are even more expensive! I just cant fathom why one atty is as expensive as a bunch of cartomizers... Am I doing it wrong?

You sometimes pay for quality, or longevity. Atomizers can be as much as $22/per.

Try ValueVapor.com - they sell LR SLB Atomizers for about $5/per

I use CE2 steel cartomizers with the top seals removed for dripping/tasting, just dripping a drop on each side where the wick enters the ceramic cup. They last seemingly forever and if you run too much down the sides it doesn't leak, just fills the carto a bit. you do have to keep it upright and just tip it to horizontal for a second every couple puffs to avoid any burning. Poor man's atty that I'm using right now. Good luck finding some good new flavors!

I still dont understand why one atty is about the same price as five cartomizers.

Can I buy a cheap $1 boge carto, and turn it into a dripper? Again, all I would be using it for is rapid testing, or short vapes of flavors I just want a quick fix on and not to vape for a few hours.

In most cases you get what you pay for as far as quality atties from reputable vendors. For quickie dripping/testing juices I'd recommend going for 306 atties with a cannon drip tip from cherry vape. Be aware that they are leaky buggers if u over drip buy the flavor and vapor is phenomenal. Cisco spec 306 (and all other) atties are pretty popular tho I've never tried them. If ya end up liking 306's enough, u can even get the 306 dca (drip cup or drip catch adapter I think it stands for) which pretty much is this cool looking adapter you screw a 306 into and it seals it from leaking into ur battery adapter and any excess juice just gets sucked back into the atty. It also allows u to use a 510 drip tip. (Oh and just in case ya didn't know, all 306's are 510 compatible)

Anything smok tek is good stuff, I had one of their 4ohm HV 510's and it was nice. Bauway from my experience (and from others) are crap. If ur looking for good atties also try ikenvape. They also offer for a couple bucks attie insurance (or used to offer it)
