Newb dripping question

Well, it didnt take long for me to say poo to 501 carts. I have read some stuff about dripping and would like to know should I drip it down the inside wall of the atty or just drip it in the middle. I have read about people doing both ways and just want some suggestions. I feel like a wuss holding my dripper bottle over my atty thinking "oh my god, am I going to kill this thing?" :laugh:

Welcome TNmetalhead.

It's been awhile since I direct dripped, but 2-3 drops directly on the atomizer bridge will yield about 10-15 puffs. If your atomizer gurgles after dripping, you may have flooded it. Simple unscrew it, blow throw the battery end into a paper towel to get the excess liquid out and try again. Many vapers use a drip tip, which connects to the atomizer in place of a cartridge that allows you to drip as needed without taking anything apart.

I'm sure some of the more experienced drippers can give you more tips as well.

Hopefully you have manual batteries which are sealed on the end. Dripping is not recommended with auto batteries.

You can use a drip tip and drip into it and shake down lightly or drip right on the bridge /\ inside and use a totally empty cart as a mouthpiece.

And get some cartomizers. You should not try to drip and drive. I love cartomizers on 510. Try the Boge soft-caps.

Just drip right down the middle onto the bridge, 2 drops should be fine on a primed atty. If you really like dripping then you should debridge an atty, it makes it real nice. (warning: once debridged the atty is only good for dripping, it will not wick fluid from a cart/carto) Just search youtube there's a couple diy videos.

Hey all,
I have been dripping quite often because i am waiting for my 510 cartos in the mail.
I was just wondering what people think about catridges. I don't really like them - but am wondering if maybe a mod will help

I hate carts and won't use them anymore. You might try some good cartos instead, there are a few that seem to be spoke of pretty highly. But I drip exclusively, even when driving (sorry dormouse :( ) but I do wait for red lights.
