Drip Tips - another home run!

[Joyce]

Yeah - you are paying a high price for a LOGO that apparently isn't even going to last according to the previous posts! These wholesale for less than a buck a piece - that's quite a mark-up!

Please allow me to clarify--I'm totally NOT upset that the logo is wearing off, and I believe it to be inevitable due to location. While in V4L's case I don't mind giving them all the free advertising they want, I don't necessarily want to be a walking billboard.

Got my drip tips in today, but how do they work? If I just slip the end into the cart and it falls right back out. Am I supposed to SHOVE this thing in past the bump? Won't that bend the metal on the carts?

 

[lujin4]

Push it in past the "bump" it will not hurt the cart.

Indeed. After a few good scrapes got thru it, it came off with my thumbnail with a minute or two of work. Poor placement of the logo, if there needs to be one, IMHO. It's already on my batt and my carto.

The price tag does seem steep, but you have to figure in how often they run amazing sales. If you're paying full price, you haven't done your homework.

Hey all.

I will say, I got one of the black tips on my last order and I like it a lot, it feel much nicer on the lips and a bit more natural. A bit pricey though to stock up on them. Maybe the price can come down on em a bit

Delrin just doesn't hold paint well.

Have only been using my Delrins for the past 2 days. I really like them but noticed, every time I pop one off, more of the little rubber ring has peeled off/disintigrated. Is this normal? What I'm afraid of is when enough of it as worn away, the drip tip will no linger have a good enough bite to make it stay snugly seated in the carto. I'm I the only one this is happening to? On a brighter note, the logo has remained completely intact and doesn't show the slightest bit of wear.

I think you can get the rubber orings at the hardware store fairly cheap.Just an idea.

I have the exact problem with mine. Due to the price of these things, and the flimseyness...I believe I will not reorder these.

Oddly, my o-ring shows no wear at all, but the logo is completely worn off. No huge problem.

hey wait a minute.

i expected to read this thread and get some info on the DRIPPING, not just how it looks and fits. are you all just starin' at 'em?? haha jus' kidding -

so - enlighten me, are you supposed to drip into the mouth end of this thing, or is the concept simply that it's easier to remove than the white end cap, so you can drip inside the carto as usual?

 

[keyzygirl]

I pop it off and then fill.

It's for both reasons. Some like to drip down it, others like myself, prefer to pop it off to refill. It's wy more convenient and means i don't have to carry extra tools around to pry the top out. So it's just me and my juice now. Rather than me, my juice and a little metal rod to pull the cap out.

Ditto for me! I don't actually drip them either, but it is much easier then prying off the cap with a tool! And it really improves the draw!

I just received my drip tips today
Really like them! Chain vapor here, so cart got pretty hot some times

When I am in chain vape mode, I have 2 going and rotate so that the cartos don't get too hot. They burn the carto before their time if you get them too hot. (just a tip )

 

[aubergine]

i drip into 'em... have since way before V4L started selling these really pretty ones - they've been available forever out there. The thing is, everybody does everything differently and according to temperament and personal evolutionary whatever. I still always start a blank w/40 drops, dammit, and the beloved Taryn spin; my daughter prefers using the condom. We argue about who can get the most juice into a carto faster. I'd rather take in laundry, I long ago decided, than wash and dry cartos. Some do that. Etc etc etc. Main thing is that everyone is happily chugging along; these are vey versatile little toys and it just keeps getting better! Welcome aboard, and waytago!

Thanks Jenjen, i am going to start doing that as I do burn through carts really fast. I wonder if my net book can hold 2pt running at the same time? Whatever it takes-33 days with no smokes....

I tried dripping down into it, but despite my careful 'down the side' nature, it still went straight down in the middle of the carto and leaked all over my hand. I'm content just popping the tip off and dripping as usual.

My logo is completely gone (but, I helped it along), but the o-ring shows no sign of wear whatsoever.
