As the title says. Looking for an ACTUALLY flat tip. Drip tips are useless to me, especially "wide bore" (these are exactly the opposite of what I want in every way, especially glass ones. ...?). Pics included of the mouthpiece I currently use. I think it came on an Aspire clearo tank I tried a while back, but I can't find them available individually (similar ones used to be available, but there are SO many places to search now and all I can ever find are drip tips). Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help. That ebay item looks perfect. Even seems to have dual function as a drip tip if I ever go insane and decide to go back to dripping. The acrylic is just what I need since I bite on it to hold it like an analog cigar when I'm working on things. And while I appreciate the help, I don't really get why I'd want to use stainless steel or glass for something I will be putting in my mouth and/or biting, and also carry in my pocket where it will be tossed around and is likely to be dropped occasionally. This is not directed at you for suggesting it, more of a general, "why?" Thanks again for all the help guys. :toast:

P.S. Forgot they were called whistle tips, thanks for the reminder!

Stainless will also chip away at your teeth whether you bite it or not. Any dentist/orthodontist/oral surgeon will tell you that. I used one for a day (ironically it came with the same tank as the flat acrylic) and sure enough, tiny chip in my front tooth. I wasn't biting it either. It was a round drip tip style. Never again.

I don't miss my mouth and don't hit my teeth. No chips...

The best I can find, as far as smoothness of the edges is the old 901 cartridges. I don't know why someone hasn't come out with some nice flat head tips that don't feel "boxy." I just pull the filler out of them and pop the tip end out (I'm a dripper) and it's good to go. You can file off some of the cartridge end if you want but they work great just like they are. I've had mine for years so I don't know how many vendors sell these now. I did a quick search and found some here. 5-Pack 901 Blank Black Flat-Tip Cartridges The Eleaf BCC clearos have a nice flat head 510 tip but it's a little wider than a 510 atty so it looks top heavy for my use but might work for your set up. The bad thing is, you have to buy the clearo in order to get the nice tip. :(
