Drip Tips from V4L...

[Dalton63841]

Okay I have been thoroughly enjoying my Vapor4Life Kit for a solid week now...In fact I haven't had a single analog all week and don't even want one!

Here's my question. I just got my drip tip and first bottle of e-liquid from V4L today, and I was noticing...There doesn't actually seem to be a way to just drip onto the atomizer bridge, since V4L uses cartomizers. Does the drip tip just take the place of the rubber cap on the back of the cartomizer and thats it?

Also, I did experiment, and it seems to work beautifully if I remove the filler material and drip through the drip tip into the empty cartomizer. Is that safe? I was careful to not drip into the little aitr tube. Doing this made tons of great tasting vapor, so I hope it is okay to do so...

btw just a quick tangent...Is it normal that V4L drops in extras when you order from them? When I bought the kit there were extra cartomizers that weren't a part of the order in the package, and when I ordered the drip tip and extra batteries, it came with extra cartomizers, and a couple of cloth lanyards...Not complaining, just curious.

I have one of their drip tips. I don't recommend dripping into it because as you said, the juice would likely go right down the air channel. However it is great for protecting your lips from a hot carto and it's easy in/out with no paperclip makes it easier to add juice.

Some cartos can be destroyed by trying to remove the stuffing but yeah - some people have done what you are doing to get more use out of a still-working carto. I wouldn't do it with auto batteries since they are so dependent on the drag sensor in the threaded end of the battery - I would worry more about drips. You can also put a DSE901 atty right on the KR808D-1 (Vapor4Life) battery and use a 901/510 drip tip to drip. Or a 510 atty with an adapter.

I just add juice to the stuffing whenever the vapor seems light or dry and I can use a carto for 4-7 days, sometimes more. Haven't tried dripping with them.

How do you know when you have refilled a cart too many times? Does it just stop working or does it start to burn and taste bad?

Both, but not because you've refilled it too many times. They just go bad and aren't expected to last as long as atomizers, so that's why they're cheaper.

How many times would you refill a carto on average?

Well I use manual batteries, and I have a few used up cartos...I will be careful about how I drip for now...but I will look into getting a DSE901 atty and drip tip very soon. Thanks for the info. Any particular suggestion on the best place to get DSE901 atty's in the U.S.? I see that model listed in quite a few places... Also, is there a size difference? I mean would the DSE901 atty look awkward on the V4L battery?
