It seems to depend on the juice. Some juice I have soaks in well. Others just kinda bead on top of it. I usually just pull it out though and fill the cart.

Forgive me if I'm misinformed, but I thought a drip tip was just a more open tip to use without a cart. So you can just drip down directly on the atomizer. I'm new at this so maybe someone more experienced can fill in.

When you drip with a drip tip you don't use a cartridge. It's just an atomizer and the drip tip, which allows you to apply the juice directly to the bridge without needing to take anything off. You can use blue foam in your cartridge and fill that by dripping juice onto the filler until it's glossy on the top, then put the cartridge into the atomizer.

If your juice beads too long on the top of the blue foam, it's too big, packed too tight. That's the beauty of using it,
trim a little off till the juice is absorbed easily. The juice is going to come out onto your atty at about the same rate
as it goes in, if it packed too tight your atty can be starved for juice. Should be just big enough so the cart doesn't leak.

When I use blue foam, there is some space between the bottom of the blue foam and the bottom of the cartridge. To do a long-lasting fill I remove it, fill the cart about 1/2 way or a bit more with juice, replace the foam and push it into the juice, pull it back up with an unbent paperclip and reposition, then top it off with a drop or two. I usually do that a couple of times per day. The rest of the time I just top it off by adding a couple of drops on top of the blue foam.

Drip tip is different - it slips into the atty instead of a cart. You drip 2-3 drops into it and it goes on the atty. You vape that and when the vapor gets low you add 1-2 drops.
