Ok so being that I am new by mere days and indeed had ordered a Sidesho and a G6(don't ask why, I don't even understand myself:\)
I was wondering if it would be wiser to use my Sidesho with the LR atty and drip tip to test out the sample juices I have coming in(noting that I would need to order these) and use the G6 for my primary get around vaping or not?
I don't really want to waste cartomizers for taste testing, so I am wondering what approach I should take with this. Any ideas?

Using an atty and drip tip for testing purposes is a great idea.

It's always a disappointment to put some foul tasting juice into a carto- thus either ruining it or requiring you to learn ow to clean them.

Regarding using an LR atty. You should really get an LR and standard resistance and see which you like. Some people go one way and some go another :)

Good luck and welcome to the forum!!

(ignore previous- I confuse Sidesho w/ Intellicig)


I do not know what model Sidesho is.

And dripping is only recommended on manual batteries.

If you have manual batteries and the carts push INTO the atty, try 510/901 drip tips. If they don't fit then I don't know. Modern Vapor sells their own oddly modified models.

I think I'll add this; don't use LR atomizers on your batteries. You have the slim batteries, which have less mAh than the fat batts. LR atties should only be used on PVs that have no less than 450 mAh, period. You could end up killing your batteries otherwise. Stick with the standard resistance and like dormouse already said, use extreme caution that you don't let juice leak inside the battery.

I looked at a picture of a Sidesho atty - it is a modified M401 style (not necessarily size, but style, but with a super tall exposed bridge added). A 510/901 drip tip will not work. You could try Joye 306 drip tip which is the only drip tip I know that can be found easily and goes OVER the atty.
Or this M401 drip tip but it may be in China - I don't know
Delrin drip-tip for super mini e-cigarette: BE401/M401 e-cigarette
or you drill a hole in the round end of an empty cart

But if you don't have manual batteries, dripping is not recommended. And if you have manuals with an open hole in the threaded end then dripping is still dangerous for the battery.

You can try dipping but with an exposed bridge that long it may be difficult

I'm not aware of what a Sidesho is myself... I did however just get a drip tip in today. First time ever using it... and i am LOVING it. Feels nice, easy to add juice. I kinda feel like i'm using juice faster which could be very likely considering the mouth piece is so open. Like dormouse said if you choose to get a drip tip it will need to fit your threading whatever numbers those may be. For me using an e-go i used a 510. Not sure what a Sidesho's would be. I like the plastic drip tip i got with a bit of curve. I've found a huge huge plus is I don't get a puff of leaky juice in my mouth like a cartridge would sometimes do. Also the plastic retains heat very well, so no burned lippies. The only con so far, seems to be the condensation but it's not like its going into my mouth at all.
