Okay, Does Anyone Know What "DIPPING" Is?

[Raynen]

This question has been on my mind for a bit, and because of the only "dipping" definitions I know of are the popular ones, I couldn't find this anywhere, really. I know what dripping is with vaping, since I've tried it a couple of times. I know what dipping is in reference to chewing tobacco and dipping analogs in whatevertheheck that is done by crazy people. But... what is "dipping" in reference to vaping? I've never seen/heard of it until I went onto a vendor's site, looking to buy some 510 stuff. They have a "pro's and con's" table, and under the "dipping" section it said "very difficult." I am sure it's probably as obvious as it sounds, but I have no idea. Anyone like to enlighten me please?

My boyfriend does this so I'll try to explain it. He uses an atty that is exposed so instead of dripping onto it he dunks the tip of the atty bridge in ejuice. He keeps what juice he is using in an old contact case for easy dipping. The mesh on the bridge soaks up ejuice in a second then he vapes it. It's very similar to dripping. Hope I explained this well.

Hahaha, okay so it was sort of what I thought. Thank you for helping me! Now I understand why a 510 atty is definitely not an easy piece of equipment to use for dipping.

Exposed-bridge attys are really great for this, and I prefer it to dripping. You can also paint the juice on with a dropper, which works really well. Unfortunately, I'm using 510s now, so...

They ones I know of are the 306 atty's that are exposed like that. Avidvaper has them and they're cisco spec you get 2 plus a dt for $20. Haven't tried dipping yet but dripping is different on these.

M40x also exposed bridge but 306lr is what you want. cisco's last longer in my experience.

OK, I have been using some LR306 attys, but have just been dripping with them. Is there any advantage to dipping?

I'm a lazy vaper so the added steps of removing the drip tip, dipping and replacing the drip tip seems like too much extra work.

Yes, I really am that lazy when I vape.

2 years ago there were not drip tips

Supposedly the atomizer will pick up the amount of juice it needs.
So you don't have to worry about flooding the atomizer, or conversely, not putting in enough juice.

It was too much extra work for me, when I tried dipping for awhile.

Back when they didn't have drip tips it made more sense than it does now.
That's probably why you never hear about dipping anymore.

This might help. Really poor quality video though.
