Dissatisfied with drip tip (Is it just me?)

[kj4lxw]

I just seem to prfer to drip it right into the atty.

Seems that sometimes the juice go all the way down, I always give the tip a couple of little taps or a little puff into it to ensure the juice gets all down.

I don't like removing the tip to maintenance the atty and finding juice seeping on the bottom of it. Just not happy with it all around.

I'm using a delrin shorty from GP. Love it as a mouthpiece though. I had one of the longer length contoured one, prefer the shorty.

When I first started dripping before I got a tip, I had taken a cart and compleyely gutted it so that it was basically a hollow tube. Prfered its function much more than a tip, but the tip feels better when vaping.

I've thought about widening the hole in the tip. That would probably address my issues and make me happy.
Am I the only one feeling this way?

I totally agree. My shorty drip tip is nasty with juice all the time. I cant drip thru it without getting a mouthfull. Im not happy with it either.

I blow lightly in mine before vaping it..Works great...I just got tired of taking the tip or cart off all the time.... I invested in a few DT's...wide mouth ones work great..unlike most... I am partial to the metal ones... I also buy the cheap box mods for dripping...I just love em... Have a great day...

Exactly, it's a right approach - I have Super T drip tip with wide mounth and never had any juice in my mouth.
If you going to widen your tip don't forget to polish insides very smooth.

I'm waiting on my super-T to get here , they supposedly solve all of the dripping hassles. We'll see how that goes hehe. Nothing wrong with dripping right on the atty though!

I've got the metal (curvy) tip from gp and have never had that problem - makes me glad I like it as much as I do!

 

[Zepfan72]

i got the tip from super t manufacturing and was not happy with it at all. it makes the juice super hot and burns my throat

I use an original Super T T-Tip that was re-bored to a wide mouth. No problems with juice coming back up but --

I *do* find that some liquids taste better with the standard mouthpiece, possibly due to the small hole?

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Phew, glad I'm not the only one, lol. I'll have to look into the Super-T's.
Do they make them in shorty version?

Personally I believe it is so. Here's why, basic advice for using a cart for dripping (510) is pop the end cap off, then you have a partial pathway straight into the atty.
I have vaped dripping with the cart intact, end cap removed, and bored out. It does seem to me that the extra blockage gives the vapor a bit of time to "cool" possibly.
Just what it seems like to me.

Yes they do.

I have a stainless steel, a brass and several delrin drip tips. The metal ones become corroded and are very heavy. I also have a problem with the drip tips fitting all of my atomizers. Once you get the metal one on the atomizer you can't get it off. I don't even use them anymore. I just remove the plastic covers from the regular cartridge tips and they work fine.

That doesn't sound right. You should be able to easily remove your metal drip tip with minimal force. If the atomizer is connected to the e-cig during removal, you should always hold the atomizer with one hand and pull the drip tip off with the other. Never pull it off without holding the atomizer in place. You could rip the casing from the atty.

Now if you're doing that correctly, then the issue is probaby with the vendor that sold you the metal drip tips. It sounds like you got one that was either manufactured badly or the wrong model. The metal tips DO have rubber O-rings on them, right?

 

[kj4lxw]

Not necessarily. My delrin tip seems to fit perfectly on one atty, loose on another, and then almost too tight on a third.
I wouldn't be surprised if there were slight variation in size due to where/how they are made.

Agree about the SuperT....their precision and design are incredible. The juice has no choice but to slide down to the atty. It's spendy, but well worth it

On the rare occasion I do drip, I find that a quick blow across/into the drip tip solves the juice-in-my-mouth problem. At the same kind of angle you would use to make an empty bottle make that reverberating sound (what is that called??). Kind of across, and slightly in.

I really like the delrin contoured drip tips. The metal feels way too heavy, since I use little batts.

I just got two Delrin shortys from GP and they work well. I also puff quickly into it after dripping (which sets off my auto battery, heh) and get no juice. Only time I did get juice was while dripping and driving and I must have poured a drop off the side because there was juice everywhere!

 

[AttyPops]

Just to add my, I have a anodized aluminum tip.... So far no issues. Just blow across the tip. Never any juice issues. It's fairly new (I used to just remove the cart), so I don't know if it will corrode, but it is inexpensive and easily replaced.

I agree. I just got my Super-T today and it was the first thing I noticed, that the flavor was diminished. I do like the feel and look of it better, and of course it is much more convenient, so I'm gonna give it some time.

That being said, it really is beautiful and well made. I like it.

Well I believe most of the problem was that the liquid took awhile to reach the atty. Or, it just needed to get the "new car smell" worked out. Or, I just wasn't holding my mouth right.

In any case, I've got flavor, convenient dripping and a great looking Tornado!
