dripping?

[StephLK]

I'm looking for some advice. I just ordered a few eGo high capacity Cartomizers. I've been using cartos for awhile with a syringe, but when I ordered this time I saw a comment about someone dripping instead. So, I added a drip tip to my order to see how it worked out. I've never seen, let alone used one before - how do they work? Is there a video anywhere on this site or does anyone have instructions? I appreciate your help!

This is easy, trust me. The drip tip is just a hollowed out "cart" if you will, that lets you drip the juice right through it. I'm assuming that you'll be using a 510 atomizer, so all you have to do is drip 3-4 drops through the drip tip, give a few seconds and vape! When the vapor starts to drop off and the flavor changes, put two or three more drops in it! When you want to change flavors you can either just go right to the next flavor or take the atty off and blow it out. You'll need to blow it out if you accidentally flood it, too. Dripping takes a little bit of practice, but the rewards are well worth it!

Also please make sure you use a manual battery. The automatic batteries do not seem to work well with dripping.

people generally drip on an atomizer, although you can drip on a carto to top it off. I usually take off the drip tip to top off cartos so I can make sure it doesnt drip down the middle

Thanks guys! Fray, when you say that you, "usually take off the drip tip to top off cartos so I can make sure it doesnt drip down the middle," what do you mean? I'm really not familiar with this since I've always used the syringe to refill. Thank you!

If you only have cartomizers (ones you have to fill with syringe) then the drip tip would only be used to top off your cartomizer. If your kit came with atomizers (the smaller part that you look into and can see the heating element/bridge) then the drip tip would be used to drip juice directly onto the heating element as opposed to using a foam cartridge that would "wick" your liquid into the element. A cartomizer is essentially an atomizer (heating element) and cartridge (foam filled part) in one piece. Make sure you purchase the right drip tip for the right atomizer - 510 for 510 atty, eGo type B for eGo type B atty (my fav one - TONS of vapor)

Oh and I think fray means so the liquid just doesn't stay in the middle of the drip tip that it actually goes onto the cartomizer foam. I find it helps to blow into the drip tip a couple times to get the liquid down there and onto the coil.
