I want to drip need help

[kylebleich]

I recently purchased some ecigs online from what I can tell its a tank clearomizer on a battery that IS NOT A 510. Not sure what that battery is called

I would like to try dripping
From what I can tell I need a different atomizer and a drip tip

But most of the atomizers I have seen are build it by our self's and are covered in warning for experienced users only... So I don't think that's what I want quite yet

Now I think I may have found atomizers that don't have to be built and such... But they then have warnings not to use on standard ecig battery's which I do believe is what I have at the moment

I want to drip I'd prefer to be able to use the battery's i already have.. Possibly with the use of an adapter
I'd also prefer an atomizer with a low oms rating thing

Can someone please tell me what I need or what I can use
Cause I really can't seem to find a strait answer just mixed bits and pieces that don't seem to fit together

Any help is greatly appreciated

Most likely you will not be able to drip on the batteries you have, i would assume they are ego type batteries (long tube with a button near the top). To drip you will need an apv or mech mod. Also you need to understand ohm law and battery safety. Dripping is not something you just want to try there are dangers involved and you need to understand them all and if you still want to drip, well then you will have known the risk involved and you will understand how everything operates. I my self have been vaping for almost 5 years and just started dripping and sub-ohming the last 6 months and i read alot of information and not just here but other places as well to get different points of view as well as watched alot of youtube videos. I now have a very good understanding of how my equipment works and the limits that i should push them to. You will also need an RBA to drip not a clearomiser.

First things first. We need to know what type of mod you have (battery). Can you post pics of it or describe it?

 

[Avie]

I have actually tried a dripper - Paradigm Magma

And yes, you need to understand what is ohm and battery safety is a must.

Why not share with us what is the brand and type is the ecig that you have purchased. That will give us a better idea and the experience guys here will be able to help you out.

Dripping can be done without an apv or mech mod, you just won't get as good an experience as with the ones where folks build their own coils. As others have said, you need to find out what type of threading you do have if it's not 510. There are small adapters you can buy from whatever your threading is to 510. Or you may find a dripper in your size threading.

the best thing would be if you could post a link to where you bought what you have, if not, posting a pic might help. Did you get it in Canada or from US?

This girl is a bit disorganized, but she does go pretty much step by step and has a girl build a coil that has never built one before. I am posting this rather than having you watch one by someone who builds all the time and makes it look way too easy to come out perfect. lol




For basic non rebuilding dripping, a lot of folks swear by these attys.

Atomizers - HH.357 Cisco Spec Hybrid Atomizers - Avid Vaper

but there are many others as well. good luck, and I'm sure folks will be able to help you, once we know what you have.

I think this pic should help ps I got it from china

apparently I cant upload a pic... this link should work... sorry its a product site... not trying to sell stuff lol

also mine doesn't have stuff written on it.... or I would have said so... but its the same as the one in the pic

Before you decide you want to drip, you need to decide if you can take on the responsibility of a mech mod or apv. I have always used mech mods.

Then, you need to understand how imr batteries and LION batteries are different in your mod.
Battery Safety and Ohm's Law - onVaping

Finally, you need to understand how coil building effects your resistance, and how ohms law effects your battery. (see the video Debadoo posted)

This is a lot to take in, I know. But it's all crucial stuff if you're going to venture into subohm, supraohm, or any kinda ohmage vaping. Educate yourself thoroughly to the point where you feel confident in knowing you know your stuff and then dive in. Hope this helps.

im interested in learning anything I need to learn... its just knowing what I need to look for... don't want to look up a bunch on one thing just to turn around and have to use another... and just and fyi im generally extremely handy ...I don't know all the technical terms yet... but im not new to electronic if I can take 2 old pairs of head phones and turn them into and aux cable.... I think I can manage this stuff once I have the right knowledge.... and rather then just tell me there are risks why not give a few key points as to what those risks are ..and I can go from there

fyi didn't read previous post before posting this

see this is exctly what I mean now I have something to go research rather then aimelessly wandering google lol

wrapping a coil is not hard to do. Just get a 510 resistance meter to measure your builds and you will be experienced in no time.

why did people tell me that coil building was hard..... if ur stupid about it ..it can be unsafe... but not hard...
I use to make wire jewlry so I even have experience making "coils"

I am deff gonna think about getting a rebuildable coil

 

[Jma1087]

Ohms reader is a must. You don't want to vape on anything that is too low and may harm you.

 

[readeuler]

It's not hard, but it can take practice and persistence to get everything working well.

The hard part is figuring out what kind of equipment will fit your needs, and how all the little (metaphorical) pieces fit together to get the vapor that you're getting - coil design, wick design, airflow, etc.

I'd get on youtube and watch build videos. A Kayfun build tutorial is what I used (despite the fact that it isn't a dripper), and was plenty to get me started.

It's possible to drip with your ego battery, I've done it at around 1.5 ohms with a Trident RDA clone, and it works well. Not great, but well enough

 

[bacc.vap]

You can drip just fine with that battery, it's the batteries (usually cigalike) that are automatic (have no button) where the problems come in. Automatic batteries have a hole in the connection end, and if liquid gets in there it can ruin the auto firing mechanism and the battery is shot. If you are just starting to drip you'll certainy have a little trial and error until you learn how much liquid you can put in the atty until flooding and leaking occur.

 

[Roscoe01]

You can run a hh357 atty on your ego if u want to just try out dripping without rebuilding.

as others have said, there is definitely a bit more to it than what is in the video, but that was the basics. Watch more vids, and heck you may already have a coil jig. Lot of folks use those, some just coil by hand. Hard to tell from the pic, but are you sure your batts aren't 510? What did you try to put on them that wouldn't go on (assuming this is how you know it's not 510). If you really get into dripping, you'll likely want something better batt wise at some point. But there are lots of great devices out there for cheap. and yes, without being able to check ohms on your device, you'll HAVE to have an ohm reader as Jma said! The flat ones also serve to hold your atty in place while you build as well.

 

[Susan~S]

You battery looks to be a fixed voltage "ego style" battery. As such, it will have a 2.0 amp limitation.

As long as you build a coil no lower than the stock coils you buy for it (and test them with an ohm reader or DMM before you fire them) you will be safe. Usually that is 1.8ohms and higher. I would recommend starting with 30 gauge wire as you battery is not going to have a lot of power to run your build.

My reason for thinking it wasn't a 510 is my impression is the 510s have smaller threading
I very well could have a 510

And thank you everyone you have been very informative so I feel like I have a better idea of what I'm doing now
