That's known as dripping- drip a few drops on the atomizer/ element and vape. Great vape BUT have to constantly re drip on the atty. Also good attys are very expensive and they need to be cleaned regularly. See my earlier post about diff delivery systems.

Hey I found this video on youtube, from someone on ECF Cartomizer - Cartridge - Drip Tip & The Difference - YouTube. She is using an Ego, but I'm not quite sure what she has on top of it? I like the setup she has. Is the entire top the drip tip setup? Or is it just the black plastic bit on the top?

Just the little tip on top. This is not the greatest video. Look for a pbusardo video on how to fill a cartomizer. I'll see if I can find a link.

Hey you've been a huge help! Along with everyone else that has posted. I watched that video, and a few others from him, and have decided on what I'd like to get, but I'd like your (or anybody else's opinion). Here is a KGO starter kit from darkcityvapor.com. SLB KGO Starter Kit.
I'm just not sure if it has everything that it needs. I don't see anything about an atomizer. It has a drip tip, 2x 1100 MAH KGo batteries, 2x cones, fits 510 boges. If you can see or tell that there is an atomizer in that package please let me know.

wow that's great! Dark city Vapor is where I got my Kgo kit too. Very happy. Now Bill is occasionally online at the website & he can help you. Order some of his juice too. I like his French Vanilla Cappecino mostly vg. He will send you a sample juice too.
As for atomizers. Kit does not come with them. So that would be a separate order. ECF folks have recommended LR 306 atties to me but I have not used atties yet...only cartomizers. Another learning curve with atties.
Keep us informed!!
Bullette says woof!

Although I like Bill at DCV many hate the cartos that come with the Kgo he sells.

Yep. The cartomizers in the kit aren't good.
But get the Smoketecks that are in the drop down box on the kit & the drip tip in drop down box. You won't need an extra shorty cone yet.
That + juice will get you started!

Yep Smok Tech 1.7 XL single coil cartos are the best ones for the Kgo. Unfortunately many are reporting QC probs with both Boge and Smok Tech cartos. I don't know as I ordered a large quantity awhile ago for converts and myself am happy with the Clearos.

Oh wow, so if you use a cartomizer instead, you don't need atomizers? I can just purchase the Kgo starter kit, get the drip tips, the Smok Tech 1.7 XL cartos, and juice, and I'm ready to go?

YES you are ready to go if you get some juice too.
So Fibbs let us know when you push that "buy" button. Then you'll be stalking the mailman in no time.

Atomizers will give the best vape but you have to constantly refill them, they're expensive and requires lots of cleaning. I only use attys for testing juices. I DIY all my juice. I now use clearomizers but add extra flavor because ALL tank systems will mute the flavor. Thicker VG heavy and darker juices will clog delivery systems quicker than light juices.

Well since I already ordered the Greensmoke E-cig I'll be waiting till that gets here and make sure I get my money back on it. But thanks to all the help on here I know exactly what I'll be ordering now, and from where. Just so you guys know I'll be going with this...

From Darkcityvapor.com:

x1 Kgo starter kit (comes with x5 empty cartos x1 drip tip x2 batteries charger and x2 cones)
x2 packs of Smok Tech XL 1.7 Ohm Cartos, with juice.
x1 Ego mega clear dual coil carto flat tip (good idea?)

And from want2vape.com I'll be choosing my juice in a tobacco flavor, unless I happen to choose something that tastes really good from darkcityvapor.

If I've forgotten anything please let me know.

I'm excited! Hopefully this greensmoke kit gets here quick and I don't get any hassle about returning it for the 30 day money back guarantee. Wish I had done more research before I ordered it in the heat of the moment lol.

Is the Ego mega clear dual coil carto flat tip, a clearomizer?

No because they have filler in them. DCV has clearomizers BUT they are the older version with short wick which has wicking problems and they are not rebuildable:
E Turbo Atomizer

Here's the rebuildbale clearomizer- when clogged simply unscrew old head and screw in new head- takes 5 secs:

Here's the Kgo with clearos:

and here's all the Kgo kits:

Oh ok I saw that one, do you not have to clean this one? Or no? I may just start off with a few cartos, then move on to clear once I can do more research.

LOL which one are you asking about?
In regards to Smok Tech 1.7 cartos Crystal Clear Vaping sells 5 packs and 15 packs with free shipping
They also have the E-Power which is the same as the Kgo except extra Kgo batts are $18 while E-Power batts are 2 for $9.00. E-Power kit also includes 30 ml juice and 5 Smok Tech 1.7 cartos. Resurector are just renamed Smok Tech 1.7 cartos.

Oh sorry I was asking about the new Clearomizers you sent me a link to, I just watched a video on them, they actually look really nice. Seem a lot easier to clean than the ones I saw earlier (they must be the old ones). I may end up ordering that clearomizer kit from sweet-vapes instead.

Yeah you just soak them in PGA for a couple of hours, rinse and let dry overnight. Next day do a dry burn and you're good to go. BUT understand ALL tanks, clearos will mute the flavor somewhat. I would suggest start with the 1.7 cartos, get used to vaping and decide from there.
