Manual switch dripping and atomizer life

[VapinAbby]

I hate carts. I was dripping exclusivly but a couple of times I got juice in the battery and ended up frying my atomizers. After loosing a few it was back to carts for me.

Now Im switching to manual switch and and want to go back to not using carts. For those of you that do this, do you notice your atomizers wear out faster than when using carts?

I don't expect my atomizers to last forever but I'm hoping to get a good 2-4 weeks with them.

I firmly believe that when you drip onto a hot atomizer, you are going to significantly shorten the life of that atomizer. (Don't ask how I learned this several times over). It may also be true that dripping directly onto the atomizer could flood it. When you saturate the heating coil if may cause a faster build up of burned 'gunk' to form.

I tend to have a couple of devices at hand so i can drip one, vape it, put it down for a short period of time to cool down, and vape with the other device. This has worked well for me for about three weeks without any failures. I have four devices I drip.

i have been dripping with my 801 and minipipe for around 3 weeks now and have not yet burnt out an atomizer. i average 3 drops in each one and never flooded

Thanks! I don't typically drip while its hot. I usually drip 2 drops, vape, then put aside until I need to vape again. That's another thing I like about dripping, there is a start and finish to the vape so I don't tend to puff on it all the time like I do with carts.
