Puresmoker Zip Tips (drip tips)

[New_World]

any one tried these?

are they any good compaired to super t's t-tips?

(i'll maybe get one with my bulk 510 atty purchase)

edit:
are they short like the super t shortys?
they look kind of little in the pics

 

[New_World]

is the size of it small like the super t shortys?

it looks like a smaller drip tip in the pic on PS's website.

I like them better than my T-Tips and the size is almost identical in length, to the Shorties.

 

[BrockJ]

what is it about them that you like better?
Are they stainless?

 

[jcamacho]

Yep, you can get them in stainless steel for only 9.99.

I guess I'll just have to get one to try out for myself.

wondering if the hole is wider than super t or how they differ

 

[BrockJ]

I haven't seen a PS tip yet but some of the ones out of China are nothing more than nickel plated copper. It's just a tip..

You can get SS or delrin. If you have a T-tip shorty, they are about the same whole size and total length (not the new wide mouth T-tip). What I like is the contour. For me it feels like the perfect marriage of a whistle and round tip, if that makes sense.

Zip-Tip vs. Shortie T-Tip on Twitpic

Hey Johnny5,

I own a T-tip shorty also. I want to try Zip-tip. Can you please tell me what the difference of opening diameter? It looks similar in your pic, but just wanted to make sure.

Thanks.

Well, I don't have any calipers, but the actual holes appear to be the same size. The bevel/funnel isn't as prominent on the zip-tip, but it drips just fine for me.

I still prefer carts. Is there any chance we'll see stainless steel tips that can accept filler material? These plastic ones suck. SS carts would ROCK!

I agree stainless carts would be awesome to not have to worry about melting and they would last forever.

Cartomizer + Zip-Tip = Better than cartridge IMO

Mine should be here monday, can't wait!

Also, SS cart with ZFM plug would be awesome!

Got mine in today.
the good:
-durable
-looks cool on the protege
-convenient

the bad:
-its slightly wider then a 510, so it blocks the air flow on an eGo if you put it on all the way. Have to keep it loose to get it to be functional.

how does it block the air flow?

I thought u wanted it tight so the o-ring seals so no air leak?

maybe I'm not understanding what your sayin.
this is like my college math class all over again!

The eGo draws its air from the top of the cone, as the rest of it is sealed off. The top of the cone is almost flush with the end of a normal sized 510 atomizer. It relies that there be a gap between the cone and atomizer itself to allow air flow. (very small gap) The zip tip is just wide enough to block most or all of the gap when it's inserted all the way. To get it to work right I have to put the zip tip all the way on, and pull it out .5mm to let air get through.
