If you wanna dip your toes into the drippin' pond, then give this a read...
Drip, Drip, Drip - The Sound of Dripping
That's a link to our awesome member The Ocelot's guide to dripping using disposable atomizers...
And here are a few links where you can find some disposable 510 dripping atomizers:
510 Standard Resistance Dripping Atomizer
Bridgeless 510 Atomizer, 2 ohms
Maybe just save the rebuilding for another day and see if you're even interested in the whole dripping thing. The disposables will even work on your Dovpo LVT mod...
Oh! And welcome to the forum, bud... always nice to see another Texan around here!

it's really simple. you coil the wires on drill bit or some mandrel. check the resistance with multimeter or one of those things you attach the atty. make sure there is enough resistance not to over draw your battery. wick it with some cotton.. drip juice on it and vape away. and it's not that complicated or time consuming.oh.. make sure there is no short either. it's very satisfying. but i don't know what other setup is like other than mech mod since i didn't go through typical upgrades.
The few local shops we have in the area keep mentioning that I start using the RBA's ( not sure if thats even correct). They say more flavor comes from dripping. Truth is, Im not sure I wanna go through the hassle of building all the time..
rebuilding is not all about dripping. I prefer a good rba tank system over a dripper, nine times out of 10.
Feel a well built rba tank system, can vape as well, if not better, providing a more overall satisfactory vape, than any dripper can. Provided one knows how to wick their tank.
Drippers are much easier to master quickly, one only has to worry about the wick densities through/around the coil. With a tank system one also has to worry about the wick densities through the juice ports or by the channels, plus having to understand the wicking potential of the fiber used, and balance that with power and air supply.
Right now, vaping the Russian at 75w, Estia @ 83w, flashi @ 57w, all providing a damn fine consistent low maintenance vape. Most days I just refill the tank and swap in a fresh batt on three apv's. Can get weeks to months on several builds before servicing. Frak been running the same coil on the Russian for 5 months now, with an occasional re-wick and dry burn.
True, getting to this point took lots of study, searching, trial and error, but the vape has been more than rewarding.
Wouldn't worry about it really. When first starting out, last thing I ever wanted to do is wrap a coil, let alone, get out th echemistry set and DIY juiced. But hey, vape is progressive, just get on the path that feels comfortable and see where it leads. I went in search of something missing from my vape, and found something vastly more satisfying than dreamt, or something like that.
Vape long and Prosper.!!!!

Rebuildables seem to be the current fad... I gotta admit, I bought into it and do not regret it. But I'm a tinkerer at heart. After a while you get used to it and more proficient. I can put in a build and not have to do anything but vape it for weeks at a time now... but it did NOT start out that way...
Give the disposables a try... if you truly enjoy the increase in flavor and vapor, then you can start researching rebuildables... click the link in my signature to "Bad's Awesome Blog"... he has some VERY good information there that would be a great start to your research... and if you have any specific questions, you can always PM me. I'd be more than happy to help you through any issues or questions.

Will do. thanks!
The point of rebuildables is "self reliance", you never have to worry about vendors having new coils/atomizers in stock again.
To be honest, I find it funny that a vendor would push them ..... self reliance will put them out of business. I haven't bought an e-cig related product since last March. (think of all the ProTank atties they could have sold me in that time)

They're counting on you contracting Shiny-itis and coming back for more atomizers and mods...
Ask me how I know.....
I felt the same, just wanted to try dripping. I bought a couple disposable drip atomizers to give it a shot. Maybe someday I'll get an RDA or a RTA, but for now they do give me a nice way to go from flavor to flavor very hassle free. They are not cloud machines by any means, so if that's what you want move on. They were worth the 20 bucks for four of them to me and now they are just another cool part of my cig quit arsenal.
There is far less tinkering going on with a coil you build yourself than factory coils over all. A coil I make lasts for weeks, cotton wick gets swapped out every few days, nothing to it. It really does give a lot more flavor and/ or clouds.
the thing that cracks me up, say if I started doing verts and micro's say like a year ago, and in the right configuration one can show increased purrformance, the changeables will try to catch the re-buildables. Everywhere you look, it's the market trying catch the vape one can build for them selves.
When it comes right down to it, there is no way a changeable atty can ever achieve the vape potential of an re-buildable anything. It can deliver an consistent whatever vape, to varying degrees of quality control, but it can't ever compete with the potential that a well built rba can deliver.
Once the skills are learned, on one can build consistently and competently, there is nothing like an rba, damn, feel a song coming on.

I absolutely agree. Once the skills are learned, there is no comparison. Same with cars... low production hand built cars are gonna be better than a mass produced econo-box every single time... it's all about attention to detail, and you can't really get that on an assembly line.
Sing the song dice! SING IT! haha. Also i LOVE that! Vape Long And Prosper!
Also welcome to the forum PapaStunt!

You'll never know until you try. You can order a dipper for less than a bottle of ejuice, so give it a try and you'll be able to decide if it's for you or not.
Sounds like the local shops are trying to drum up sales. That is their job you know. Just take your time and do whatever works for you.
