Hi and welcome to the world of Egos

Its a good all round vape. I too started on a 510, and found the Ego to be a far more comfortable solution.
Regarding your question about drip tips, I guess you're looking for the Holy Grail of vaping?

I know its like a ladder each step you climb costs you time and money.
I've gone from
- 510 atty+cartridge
- 510 atty+strawmod+cartridge
- 510 atty+highping+cartridge
- 510 cartomizers (old type with rubber stops)
- 510 PT + old cartos
The both my 510 batteries died, got an Ego...
Since then my path goes:
Ego+old cartos
Ego+dripping with empty cartridge
Ego+dripping with drip tip
Ego+New JoyeTech Ego Cartomizers.
Best thing I've found to date is the new JoyeTech Ego Cartomizers. They're a very good reliable vape, as good as the best direct dripping. Downside is you need to fill them with a syringe.
My tips are:
- Never buy old type rubber stop cartomizers, they're crap.
- Watch out for buying a metal / chrome drip tip, might seem cool / classy, but reality is do you really want metal in your mouth all the time?
- Dripping is a bit of an art, I guess you're supposed to master, call me stupid but after 2 months of vaping I still get juice in my mouth from dripping with or without a drip tip. Maybe I overfill who knows...
- Keep your atties facing down overnight in an atty bed or on a paper towl so they can drain. Before you go to bed, you can give them 3 hard blows from the battery side to flush out any excess juice. This removes any harsh taste by morning.
- I've had 1 LR atty, and I don't like it. I know I'll get flamed for this, but I think a decent regular atty with an Ego battery can give you a better vape than an LR atty.
Congrats and hope you find your holy grail!
