Match drip tip hole to air intake for more flavor

[bluegrasslover]

I took an old plastic drip tip and plugged the tip with steel epoxy putty. After it cured I drilled a 1/16" hole in to match the size of the air intake on an RSST. Equal in vapor production but very noticeably more flavor. I would think that having a larger hole in the drip tip might cause some kind of negative pressure that may impede flow. Pretty nice return for very little effort.

Forgot to mention one thing. I does seem to produce a slightly cooler vapor.

Interesting. Will have to mess around wid dat. Thanks, man.

I would suggest having the drip tip hole slightly larger than the inlet hole. The pressure in the chamber is a good thing. My sweet spot is 1.5mm in, 2.0 out.

Tried your suggestion. I think I prefer the same size. The cape seems richer somehow. I am going to do my other drip tips. Definitely makes a difference.

Yes I hear you, it is much better. Also it helps to stiffen up the overall draw. A 1.5mm inlet is for some way too airy and I find it just right with my combination. With a 4 to 5mm drip tip hole it is a completely different ballgame.

I've changed my mind. Just a tad larger is the best to me. I've converted all of mine now. Easy to do for good results.
