Do you need a special tip for "dripping"?

Hello,

I have an ego t, which does not seem to have an exposed heating element. Can I "drip" with this by just dripping onto the wick? I just got a bunch of flavors, and want to try them without filling a whole tank.

Thanks,
Dave

Absolutely!

yes - with a recessed atty bridge in a tube you can do that. As a mouthpiece you could use an empty cart (one with no stuffing) or put your mouth on the atty (but that could get hot and you may burn yourself with the metal or sputtering juice)

Cool, thanks; note that my mouthpieces are "tanks" so have no stuffing anyway.

Well that was underwhelming; just vaped some "Irish Creme" juice, and it barely had a hint of flavor. Just started vaping, though, so not sure what I was expecting. Oh well, I never smoked for the taste before, and the juice has nicotine, so the important thing is there

To me, dripping can be sort of airier sometimes. Like the flavor is more diffused. Try dragging slower to get less plain air in your vapor (of course you are at a disadvantage for dragging slow if your mouth is on a hot atty). And also, some flavors are just eh. I tried an Irish Cream this week too and I was sort of eh about it. Tried a Butter Rum Caramel from Juicy Vapor and that was great dripped - I immediately ordered a normal size bottle.

I actually ended up putting some in the tank, since I was not confident the dripping will work. Oh well, that is why one gets, samples, right? I also got root beer, chai, english toffee, and strawberry cheesecake, so hopefully one of those will work out.

I use an aluminum tip and a delrin tip, i prefer the delrin because of the soft rubber feel.

Irish Creme is rather bland, I have a whole bottle of it that I've used once. It's nice but not very flavorful.

I have both kinds as well, I prefer the metal tip except if I'm using a LR atty.

You don't really NEED a special tip, any tip will work. You could even just pull the filler out of a cart if you wanted. The drip tip just has a larger hole which is nice. I've seen people say they drip down them too, but I never got this to work reliably.
