drip tip tips?

[jerry503]

The Hot vape tips have a slight taper so they tend to fit in anything and the glass is very thick...they seem to almost pop into place after being inserted a few times like the carto is fitting to them.

They've got some beautiful tips, so I'll come back to them when I'm feeling a little more splurgey -- and maybe feel a bit virtuous since I'm not spending the big(ger) bucks on a Trippy Tip.

Another question if I may -- I notice that many of their patterns are available in two sizes. Even with an 18650 in the pics for size comparison, I can't really tell how big they are. And I know no two are quite the same. So I'm curious if, compared to average 510 drip tips, the smaller ones seem mini-like and the bigger seem average ? Or the smaller seem average, and the bigger seem huge? Or...well you get the idea I'm sure.

Thanks!

One bit of advice I might mention is HHV's Ming tips fit the Phoenix. I know finding tips for the Phoenix can be a drag.

Thank you so much for the "how to" I will see if I feel adventurous enough to try it. Its a great conversation piece.

I use the Neon Orange Carrera (#34) for my Padres Chuck.

I thought that looked stunning when you posted it in the show-me topic. Never would have picked it, now I want those colors, they are speaking to me.

+1 for the Cherry Vapes Ming. Just purchased a SS and I love it. Kind of wishing I bought an acrylic as I don't know if I like the "taste" of metal much. Went with the SS to match my current set-up and to keep it somewhat "professional" looking as I vape at work.

Coming over from Clearomizers and using the included tips to a tank/carto, a comfortable drip tip definitely change the vaping experience.

Anyone else have a drip tip obsession? I think I order at least one every time I order juice. Lol. Got several cherry vape mings. They seem to be my favorite right now.

Cherry mings are my gave also.

My experience with good solid stainless steel is that it gives off no taste. I know there are many different quality of stainless steel. I just got another order from Super-T/ Precise. I got the straight and a shorty and the tapered. I requested they be polished to a high shine and they look like white gold, platinum. So smooth so jewel like. They are expensive, but now having 5 of them Im hooked. How better to top off the perfect MOD and the perfect juice delivery accessory than to top it off with a good drip tip. I love my tips, I have a basic black glass trippy and it was the most expensive especially since I always take the chance it will break, but a good quality stainless is forever. They do make a difference in taste and draw quality.

I saw your post and thought it had been a while since I had taken a pic of my obsession:


I think I got them all rounded up

Wow, and I thought I was obsessed, that is quite a collection. I love drip tips. How long have you been collecting them?

Since '09 and still going. Mostly into the the glass tips now!

You win!!

Most are for 510/901-some for 801, iatty has 2 and then the brass one for the bullet-can't use that one till it gets a clear coat though And a big one for the Mega Ego.

No, sorry, I meant the atomizers sitting on the two APVs shown in the picture.

Those are my ERA's-One bottom feed and the other is top feed-I love them!!!!!!

I agree, Ming's here also. I hated my lips getting blistered from the metal tips.

I worried about should something bad happen with a short I might get zapped with them. So won't use metal out of that fear, but getting blistered sure is another good reason for me to not buy metal!

I just got some Hagstrom glass tips. I was surprised at how large they were, but I love the cool vape. I just wish they weren't almost 2 inches tall! Anyone else have any Hagstrom's?

I agree that SS doesn't give off taste or add taste when vaping. I guess the "taste" I was referring to was that metallic taste when your tongue touches the SS, if that makes any sense. No gripes about my SS ming, I absolutely love it and would recommend it to anyone/everyone. I, however, will be purchasing some acrylic mings next to compliment my collection, as soon as I get over the whole "colored swirly" thing. I still somewhat associate those styles with head shop/smoke shop stuff, which I do not want to be affiliated with.

Don't know if I am ready to try different shapes/styles yet, I love the ming currently. Polishing seems like nice change when I get tired of the look. Thanks for the idea!

I'm rocking a ceramic Ming tip, great tip, never "cold" not too big like my steel king kong which feels like sucking a &$!$ not that I've ever done that but I imagine that's what it' gotta be like lol

The Hot Vapes glass tips w/o an o-ring are very large (which I like - I probably look like I'm sucking on a binky most of the time). I have 5 or 6 now, the smallest are twice the size of a Cherry Vape ming and the largest about 3 times the size of a ming. I have #5 in the below pic and it is almost 3 inches long.
