Doing a order off of vaporgeek.com and i want to get a nice drip setup for the ego twist.

Any suggestions based off of what vaporgeek has? I am for sure doing the order off this site since orders over 75 get free shipping in B.C and the price after tax was cheaper then canvapes for everything else.


I saw this...
BLACK DERLIN DRIP TIP eGo

then i was looking and it said ego a or b style? what works best on the twist?

Joyetech eGo-C Atomizer Body Cylinder Shape - Type B
or
Joyetech eGo-C Atomizer Body. Cone Shape - Type A



anyhow? what would work best? this is what i figured out on my own... would one of the non joye 510's be better?
any suggestions would be good.

Either of those would work fine on a twist. The difference is just a shape, but because of that you need different cartridges for each.

With that said, you cant really drip with a tank style atty. Those are just ego-c bodies, you would need eco-c heads, and compatible cartidges to even use those things. On the same page you find those they do have ego atomizers, that would work with that drip tip i guess.

I'd go with the 306 atty, and a 306 drip tip. Or just a regular 510 atomizer and a 510 drip tip. Just make sure not to get a 510-T(tank)

As albertbert said, what you linked are C atomizers, the changeable tank system. You don't want to use those to drip - lemme dig around on vaporgeek.

Edit:

I think what you'd want to do is just buy a 510 atomizer. Personally I don't drip much but I keep things on the twist at SR ~ 2.8 Ω at around 4 volts and I'd either go for the bridgeless atomizer; 510 Bridgeless Atomizer or just the ole faithful joyetech; JOYETECH 510 ATOMIZER. The bridge-less does have a slightly better taste to me - with less obstructions, but because the bridge does hold more liquid it is a bit more forgiving when dripping.

As for cones .. if you want to cover the EGO threads and get a nice tapered look, you could get this; Joyetech Matte Black eGo Cone - Joye eGo Atomizer Cover unfortunately she doesn't have the stubby tapered version and that larger one *may* cause huge airflow problems or not work at all. You could get this; Ego Shorty Cone - Black but it's obviously for a different purpose and will leave you with a ledge, because it does not taper in towards the atomizer.

What I'm curious about from her is a drip sheild, she's one of the only Canadian vendors that carries them; http://vaporgeek.com/index.php?route=product/product&filter_name=drip+sheild&product_id=313. You do a need a 510-510 adapter to use one however.

Grimmgreen video about drip sheilds; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uf2sK3CXN_o

Of course you need a drip tip as well, but to me .. just buy what ya think you'll like. :)

All you need is an atomizer and a drip trip, a cone is mostly just for looks. A drip sheild isn't necessary either, but it's another option. You'd want the sealed 510-510 adapter. I believe unsealed is only if you have an automatic battery and need the airflow to reach the battery, a sealed won't have a hole and will keep juice some juice out of your ego battery if you have leaks.

Grimmgreen explains it well in the video I posted, you might not even be interested in that sort of thing. Not many people seem to use them.

You might want to wait for a couple more opinions, I'm not an expert dripper. :) I gave you too much information, sorry.

Edit: Here is a comparison;
510-atomiers.JPG
The first is just is the bare minimum - an atomizer and drip tip. The second is with a cone - the one I think is too long and will block air flow, it just makes it look cleaner. All I use personally is an atomizer and drip tip, but a stubby cone and drip sheild are both things I'm going to buy at some point.

why would you need a drip shield on an ego with a 510 atty.....that is just redundant.
The normal ego cone is for asthetics, but also doubles as a drip shield. and no 510 to 510 adaptor required!!!!!!!!!!
Only get a drip shield if you want to transfer this setup to a MOD, but of you are only using eGo type batteries, than save your money.

my advice for a Drip setup... 306 atty 2.2-2.4 ohms(my preference) with a long 306 drip tip(this avoids requiring an adaptor), and use the eGo cone.
no overcomplicated setup, and with minimal purchase.
you can use a 510 atty with drip tip , but i like the 306's for dripping.

I have had great success with Cisco attys for dripping, I dont like the draw on the Joye products.
I havent bothered with the Io6 or Ikenvape attys, so i cant comment on those, but others may chime in on their performance.

enjoy!

*Side note, if you have an auto battery laying around, dont drip with it... failure may occur.

*EDIT*
If you use the larger eGo attys (TypeA & TypeB) not the ones for eGo-C, you run the risk of juice leaking out the sides if you over-drip. Due to these not having anywhere for the juice to pool up, and are really meant for use with the large carts, and in my opinion not ideal for dripping. :2c:

I've never thought of a cone as a drip shield, there's a lot of room between the 510 and ego threads for pooling isn't there ? My impression of a drip shield is that it will contain leaks better and you can pull liquid back into the atty. I was trying to give him a couple of different options, but I ended up just being confusing. I have to learn how to write less and be concise. :facepalm:
