I was curious if there are any drip while you drive items aside from Johnson Creek E-Pump, and wonder if people are not selling them because of high shipping costs associated. Do you think there would be a market for a stainless steel cylinder box that collapsed and assembled, but folded down to a small size to hold E-juice (with a replaceable pump nozzle & such), or would stainless steel be unsafe to store juices in? Ideally it would distribute 2-3 drops a pump.

Using anything that diverts your attention from the road even for a sec or two is potentially deadly and needless, just get a PV with juice feeding capability like the Ali'i, the Reo, the GGTS with AVS, the soon to be released Precious Lv2 with juice dispenser and there's more that will be cropping up soon.
1) Get an exposed atty ecig (401/2 recommended)
2) Fill up a 5ml bottle with your best driving juice - do not put dropper back on bottle
3) Place bottle - without lid - in easy reach where it wont fall over (near gear lever/dash?)
4) When driving... Loosen cart, remove cart by holding in teeth.
5) With one hand, dip exposed atty in top of juice bottle.
6) Slide back onto cart in mouth...
7) Vape away.

This isnt safe either, but I use a contact lens case. A lot easier than dripping.
There's more info about dipping here on the forums, and the user that suggested the contact lens case has helped me a ton.
(I had dry atomizer and didnt know : )
You will need a cig with an exposed atomizer. Like slopes, I use the M401. The 402 and 403 are the same atomizer with a shorter battery. 401 is a tiny bit longer than a 100.
Shawn at https://www.litecigusa.net always has great prices.

About as safe as finding and lighting a real ciggie I guess. What is needed is for an enterprising ecig company to sell a small screw-on funnel for those 5ml bottles (say, 2 inch diameter). That would help guide the exposed atty down into the juice as it is dipped.
I'm sorry guys, but this is ridiculous.
One-handed acrobatics, disassembling it with your mouth, dipping, dripping, etc while you're maneuvering a 2-ton hunk of metal at high speed down a narrow strip of tarmac... Listen, I know dripping tastes nice and everything, but is it worth killing yourself or someone else over?
Just suck it up and slap on a cart/o. You'll be fine, I promise.

It's something you only tend to realize when you're either involved in a major accident or have a very close call I guess.
I never have. *knock on wood* Just seems like common sense to me.
Being distracted while wielding something that can and does kill people every day is a dumb idea.
I've been run off the road by someone who was distracted looking for something in her purse causing my car to roll 6 times, luckily I came out of it with only a leg broken in 3 places, it could have been worse but I'll have a limp for the rest of my life.
My vote to NOT.
Come on. I mean seriously. I get the need for nicotine, but suck it up (pun intended) and use a cart.
Don't drip and drive.
My public service announcement for the morning.

Wow, I'm sorry to hear that.
But it really goes to show what being distracted while driving can do.
Well, my suggestion was for dipping - not dripping. The half a second it takes to locate the fixed position of the 5ml bottle, before dipping the tip of the atty into it, hardly qualifies as a major breach of road safety. In terms of distractions, it would be far more dangerous popping in a CD or lighting up an analogue.
I just got my first LR cartomizers in last monday, and I'm sold. The flavor and vapor production is pretty damn close to dripping, they hold more juice than regular carts... and none of those pesky head-on collisions. I drip at home or at the office... but driving I'm now sticking to low-resistance cartos.
Got a little road trip coming up, so I bought a kaji JM to keep in the car. It ahs a slight learning curve as far as flooding the atty goes, but other than that it should help in keeping my eyes on the road.
AGREE Cartomizer is the only way to roll, Don't drip and drive.....you won't be able to text
I normally always DD but when driving I use a cart and an atty with the wick removed. Almost the same taste but alot safer.
You don't think you're distracted?
Even if your eyes are on the road (doubt it - you have to find the juice bottle), your mind is a million miles away. Not only is your mind not on the road, but you only have one hand on the wheel, while the other hand is trying to perform a delicate task.
People on cell phones have their eyes on the road, too. Doesn't stop them from hitting stuff.
Nor does it stop smokers, who can't wait for a red light before digging around for their lighter.
We forget sometimes that when we multi-task, our ability to do each task accurately decreases.
If you're writing an email and dripping, that doesn't really matter. No one is going to die if you get distracted, and make a mistake.
But if you're driving a giant hunk of metal?
In terms of your level of distraction while doing this, it's probably very similar to texting.
Do you have any idea how many people get killed every year because of such levels of distractedness?
Drip driving is about as safe as driving while texting or driving while drunk for that matter. I dont think it is a very good mix. Back when I was dripping all the time I used the E-Dobit for a while driving but even that was a hassle at times. Fill a few carts for when you have to be in the car for a while and save yourself and those around you from being in a possible accident! So I guess I vote no on any new device for doing so...Happy vaping!
