"dripping" question

[Trox.Shawn]

So i have ran out of blank cartridges and I haven't had time to run to the store to pick up any filler. I tried to do the coffee filter idea that others have suggested but it seemed that for 10 drops that I put into the cartridge it emptied quick. So I was wondering if it was bad to take an empty cartridge (no filler in it) and just drip one or two drops directly on the wire mesh of the atomizer and hit it that way?

Trox--many Members here drip vape---some say it is not good for the atommizer and others say it makes no difference--do watch out for your batteries and passthoughs as dripping may allow the e-liquid to get into them and gunk them up.-------Sun

What i can add is that when i fill an empty cart with fresh filler (i use tea bags) it takes between 15-20 drops to fill completely (510/910 carts) i usually let it set for a minute to let gravity do its work, them add more if needed.
- Just in case you were not putting in enough fluid to begin with.

Could the battery hole not be "plugged up" in some fashion? This would prevent juice leaking into the battery. Anybody done this?

The manual batterys are already sealed, the automatic batteries need the influx of air to activate the atomizer. If you sealed it up, it wouldnt sense the airflow.

I am using a manual 510 - so does that mean that it is seal and I should not have any worries? Also I am only putting literally one drop onto the atomizer which gives me a about 10-15 puffs. I only did this once for a quick fix here at work, however, if it is an ok practice I would prefer this as it forces me to hit until that one drip is finish and then causes me to wait between vapes instead of just sitting around chain vaping.

edit: it also has a fresh strong e-juice flavor so it would be similar to a fresh cartridge every time. Also it seems that this would create less waste from the bottom of the cartridges, as well as eliminate the filler portion so there are not "what if it burns and I inhale (insert filler name here).

My problem is to me it seems the best way and since I have not seen much about this there has to be a reason it is not talked practiced.

Thanks do you have the 510?

sweet deal... Thank you all, and sorry if it sounds extremely newbie, however, I am new to this and extremely afraid to do something wrong to break my e-cig. I have only been vaping a week, but I can not even smoke an analog anymore the buzz from them suck and they do not taste anything like my e-liquids.
