how can I drip without killing 401s

[Valhalla1]

I hate carts and have always dripped. 510's are nice on mods at home but when I'm out I like the small size of the m401 but my attys don't last very long. Very quickly they develop a very hard draw, especially with thick juices.
I opened a new atomizer to use with the raths waffle and blueberry pancake juice I just got but within just one day this atty is performing poorly.

when I try to drain the atomizer or clean it under running water and let it dry and try to re-use it, most of the time they end up dying and never firing back up again. I've got at least 4 dead ones and I've only been vaping 3 months, I can't continue like this

is anyone having better success dripping with a 401?

maybe I need to try dipping instead

how long u letting dry after washing?
If it hasnt been a day or so, may wanna let it dry more but could be from over dripping too....two to three drops and an immediate vape usually does trick for me....dipping does work best tho but not always practical....hope it all works out for ya, I agree, that is way too many dead ones in that time period!

they also dry out quick too....make sure u drip a few every 5-6 puffs, if its flooding, do 2 every 4-5 puffs and try n catch what it likes best...

I do dip but dripping should work if you follow the above. I let mine drain overnight (upside down on a paper towel) and that really keeps them clean and dry. Just make sure you prime it good in the morning. Haven't lost one yet but have dropped a few...

Best I can suggest is to try fewer drops dripped more often. And be sure to drain every night.
