i havent read the comments, but just off the bat... igo-l or igo-w are awesome for dripping. if u wanna pony up more cash get a nimbus. and i feel u about the ohm readings... i do have a multimeter however i still find myself using my evic to read my coils after building then transfering over to my mech.
 
Another vote for the Igo-L. This was my first dripper as well and I've already picked up a second one. Very easy to setup (even with dual coils) and provides an excellent vape. Holds a decent amount of juice as well as long as you put a decent amount of wick in it.

The Igo-W looks very nice too for not much more and would allow you to build a quad coil setup.

I like the IGO-L as well. I use it at home, when I'm not out and about. However, it was a frustrating journey, until I found micro-coils (search ECF for lot's of threads about this). That really changed my vaping. A micro combined with a cotton wick is pure taste bliss. I only vape pure juices (PG/VG/Water, no flavors), so I'm especially sensitive to nuances in taste. I can live with my Boge cartos, but for a 'proper' vape, dripping is the way to go. For the best of all worlds, a bottom-fed dripper is the ultimate... so I've ordered a Reo Grand :)

Wow...that confused me greatly...lol. PG/VG/Water, NO FLAVORS??? How does that produce the best flavor? Does PG and VG have a good taste? I didn't even know they had a taste.

Just wanted to say....THANK YOU MEMBERS! I had a question, and couldn't find the answer on the forums (tho I have a feeling it's been said before). I was hoping I could get a thorough answer within a couple days. The members on this forum started replying within a couple minutes. And now, within the same day, I've already got my dripping atomizer in hand ready to go. And i know what my next purchase will be ( the I Go L). So, thank you. I'm so stoked to have quit and found vaping (which I frickin LOVE), and now I'm stoked to be part of such a cool community that actually cares :)

Enjoy your REO aarhus. I just got a VMOD XL bottom feed - it's excellent both in terms of flavor and usability. But now I see a REO on the horizon, and maybe something wooden after that... I feel like I just started vaping again and now I'm going to have to buy new gear.

Bottom feed is like dripping upside down where the liquid is squeezed in to the atomizer through holes in the bottom. For those interested you can review the liquid feed forum Liquid Feed APV Discussion and if you are a visual person, there are a lot of videos on youtube for the REO, VMOD and a whole bunch of other bottom feeders. I feel like I need to promote this under-utilized method of vaping.

One last question on the topic....can someone provide a link for a video that could possibly help me in setting up, specifically, the IGo L?

One of my favorite video reviews is P Busardo. He is a little whacky, and if you just want to get to the meat of the actual recoiling section skip forward to 6.36. Just as a point, he talks about the cap being very loose, mine was the opposite, it's tighter than tight and I was worried about the threads on my APV breaking while I took the cap off.
The other point that I would make would be to trim the wire just a little closer to the posts - you'll see what I mean when you watch the video. It might not be completely necessary, but I like to get mine really close to the posts.



By the way - isn't this forum the best... :2cool: so many people have helped me overcome so many issues. It's a great place for knowledge, for information and for making new friends.
