Hey Vaperwes.........
I'm an old gear head so I like my toys. My "goto" for during the day at work is an IPV4 with a Subtank Mini with the RBA @.25ohms.....running 36watts/3volts with a spearmint/menthol flavored ejuice at 12mg nicotine. When I'm not at work I play with all kinds of neat stuff. A couple of parallel box mods that I built myself. A couple that I bought that were already built. My old Vamo 7 with a Subtank nano with a .5ohm vertical coil etc, etc. About 5 different kinds of drippers. I'm 61 and the mechanical stuff I used to play with I can't do anymore. So my vaping is part quitting smoking cigs and part something to play with.............

Now that's something I want to get into I just don't really know what to do I still have a lot of researching to do. But yeah man that's the exact way I do it it's fun and it helps me get of the cigs

Hi and welcome. I use a lot of different mods as the mood takes me. Right now, I am vaping a 22650 and an 18650 mech, loaded with different flavors, and both topped with a dripper (Vector and a Tobh.) Out an about I take a Reo and/or a SX Mini M.
How exactly do drippers work because here lately I've wanted to get a dripper and pop it on my sigeli or maybe just get a whole new setup and put a dripper on it.

Simplest thing in the world. Here's a photo of one (it happens to be a Velocity):

That's the build deck. You put a coil on each side of the two little towers you see (the posts), and pull a bit of cotton through the center of the coil for a wick. Then you drip some juice down in the bottom of the thing (the well), wait until the wick saturates, put on the top cap, attach it to the mod and vape away. When the juice is gone, you lift the top cap, drip on more juice, and repeat. Here's two more photos of one that's built, the first is coils only, the second with a horseshoe wick:

That particular dripper in the last two photos is mine, and I put that build in it last night. As luck would have it, mine has been modified for bottom feed to use on a squonk mod (you don't take the top off to add juice, you squeeze a little plastic bottle and it shoots juice up into it), but it's the same idea.

Seems easy enough I might have to watch a video on the process but doesn't seem like anything to hard honestly

It can be a PITA carrying around a juice bottle and constantly adding it-- that's why I use a squonk mod sometimes-- but at home here I drip all the time. They are also really handy to test out flavors as very little juice is required; just enough to wet the wick. Many people think once can get better flavor and/or cloud-- depending on how you build it-- from a dripper. However, I have recently stumbled over the Indulgence MT tank, and I find it pretty much the equal, plus the added convenience of having liquid storage aboard.
