DIY Kit for Christmas & a dripping question

[bunwabit]

Can't wait to get started mixing!!! Question though I got a Drip tip for my Ego-C so I can taste test my flavors as I go. I'm new to the drippin thing!! Am I right to assume I just take out the tank, pop in the drip tip and drip right on to the atty????

Ummm can't wait to make some Peppermint, White Chocolate!

Hope you are all having a wonderful holiday!!!!!!

No idea since very few people have Ego-C. But if it's anything like the tank attys then it's not really designed for dripping. Most use a normal 510 atomizer and 510 drip tip or a 306 atomizer and 306 drip tip for dripping.

Here - use Search Thread in the Ego-C thread and search for drip to see what other owners are doing

+1 - Need an another 510 or 306 atty for dripping. No dice on the eGo C atty.

What a fantastic Christmas gift! As dormouse said, most use an atomizer for dripping.

Make sure to check out the DIY sub forum & have a note-book to make notes on each and every creation so you have a reference to re-make a juice when you figure out a winning mix

you'd need an atty to taste, 306 attys are better for taste testing imo as they're what I use to measure the success of the juices I make at home and what can possibly be tweaked or added in for a future batch. It can be a whole lot of trial and error in the beginning.

PLEASE<PLEASE
DO read the DIY section entirely and make sure you have a nic base that you have assurance is the right mg/ml
DIY can be fun but it should also be serious as well.Know the supplier of the nic base and ask for their certification of the purity and testing of the amount of nic per ml. No testing is suspect IMHO.

my 2 cents

Have fun dripping.............vaping heaven............next to a Lava tank

Thanks everyone, I guess I'll try dripping on my blu, instead of my Ego.

And Bonnie girl thanks for the advise & concern. I did get my stuff from One Stop DIY and Kim was soooooooooo nice to call me before I bought anything and said I could call her back when I was ready to start mixing so that made me feel really good.

+1 for what Bonnie said.

DIY really is a lot of fun, but can be very dangerous if you don't know what your doin. Make sure you read all the DIY stickies and ask ANY questions you have before you start. Nicotine liquid is no joke and needs to be handled correctly and with caution. Wear gloves any time you handle nic liquid bc even just getting it on your hands is dangerous. It absorbs thru your skin and just getting some on your fingers can make you feel awful.
Use a juice calculator and make sure you double check ALL your calculations. I recommend using syringes for all your measurements to ensure they are accurate.
I'm not trying to scare you at all, because I love making my own juices and I think you will too. You just have to remember to be smart and use caution.

Goodluck!!

I was careful and wore my gloves! I also went to Target and got some plastic syringes from the pharmacy that are easier to read for measurements than the pipettes and I used a metal syringe with a flat needle for the nic! I made 4 flavors that I thought sounded good, not to bad may need a little tweaking next time!

Thanks everyone, I guess I'll try dripping on my blu, instead of my Ego.

Blu comes with an atty? From what I know, Blu comes with a cartomizer. That is an atomizer with filler material that soaks the liquid. You will need an atomizer (Heating element only...no polyfill) with 510 threading in order to drip with that battery. Are the blu batteries sealed? If not, and you drip too much you may get liquid in the battery and it may be damaged. Double check that.

With DIY, please heed the words posted by others above. I treat every drop as if it were deadly. It is not a joke and requires an extreme amount of respect and care.
