Regular Atty Drippers (A Dying Breed?)

[billherbst]

Awesome, Mann - thank you. I'm now kicking myself for already going over my Feb. vape budget, and I can't justify going even further over with $5.95 shipping being the only option for a pack of 5. Hopefully some will still be left in March

Given what Mann has shared about digitalciggz' reluctance to stock these combined with the fact that this batch is the last remaining stock, odds of these joyetech atomizers being available in March are slim or none, with the much greater likelihood being none.

Sure, it's frustrating to miss a deal like this because you've gone over budget, but one of the hallmarks of the consumer marketplace in general and the vaping marketplace in particular is that other great deals will come down the pike.

sage advice as usual, Bill. I swear I would spend us to the poor house on vape gear if I didn't listen to my very intelligent and frugal fiancee'

Just spoke with DC and they seemed floored at the number of orders (quite a lot) that came through in a short amount of time for a seemingly background item. The site is currently showing SOLD OUT; and while I don't know if they'll ever re-stock 'em, I have to wonder if someone at HQ will not look at the traffic and spike in sales and think it may be a wise decision to bring it back. Either which way, I am glad some were able to get back on the deal.

I'm one of 'em.

Mr., try to convince your friends at DC that retaining a niche market item will give them an edge. Especially as these new vapers try the different tanks, RBA's and RDA's, until they finally make their way to the old school where juice tastes the way it was meant to taste.

There's a reason for that old saying, everything old is new again. I'm convinced that dripping will once again be the preferred vaping choice.

Apparently there are more technical reasons, more than just lack of desire, as to why they may not be bringing them back; but at the end of the night, it's a bidness, man! There are just far too many sites out there, with more popping up daily, so any hook is a good one.

I also talked to them today. asked her to tell the owner to look at the flood of business as soon as the attys reappeared. and reminded her that not everyone rebuilds (gasp!) I have a few rebuildables, but they are in case the goberment ruins things! I don't want to rebuild !

They're just joye atties, right? They can't be the only ones with them

 

[raijen]

I think it's just that their price is the cheapest by a large margin. 5/$10.

haha yeah I guess that's a good point

yes, it's the price. I will not pay 5-7 dollars for one joye atty! I will rebuild at that point if I have to !

Yeah, Joye atties are pretty crap. I wouldn't even bother will them.

 

[DC2]

I guess I should tell that to my Joye atties that I've been using for the last 4.5 years with no problems.
They currently do not seem to be aware that they are crap.

 

[raijen]

Granted I'm new, but they seem to be working fine for me.

 

[cags]

Yeah, Joye atties are pretty crap. I wouldn't even bother will them.

uh, I didn't say they were crap. I've been using them since I started (3 years) with no problems, and they last months. but, after paying 2.00 each, I do not want to start paying 5-7 for them. that would hurt too much

I said they were crap, that's my opinion haha. I mainly don't like them because they're so short, and I don't use atties without a drip shield

 

[hippieben]

Do you guys dry burn?

 

[cags]

Do you guys dry burn?

no............

 

[hippieben]

no............

That does technically answer my question, but would you mind elaborating a little bit? Why do you not dry burn? Do you find that it burns the wick and adversely affect the flavor? Does it shorten the life of the atty? Do you not worry about gunk build up, or do you use PGA to take care of the gunk or is gunk build up something you just don't worry about?

I like to steam clean my atties with my espresso machine then blow some PG though to get the water out.

I always have a hard time returning to "normal" with my atty after dry burning, but it's not impossible, it just takes awhile FOR ME to get that nasty taste out. I use want2vape Atty Refresher if I have an under-performing atty and it works exactly how I would like -- poorly performing atty ---> properly performing atty..

Dry burning can work if not done too aggressively.

Most of the time though. if my attys don't work as I wish, for the most part I just grab a new one -- I have soooooooooooo many!

 

[DC2]

That's the only thing I ever do to clean my atomizers.
But I only clean them (dry burn) when I notice a decrease in performance.

I dry burn them thoroughly with a fully charged 18650 battery until there is nothing left to burn off.
Rinse them out good, and dry burn them one more time to make sure.

Sometimes I actually believe they will last forever.

I have never blown one by dry burning, maybe because I don't use high voltage.
When they die it always happens in the middle of an average vaping day.
