Small Rant: Bottles with no Dripper/way to dispense

[DenaInWyo]

What the heck is up with this lately? Is it just because I've started branching out on vendors? There are some really cool looking bottles out there, but when it comes time to filling a tank, you'd better have a syringe or something.

I know The Standard with their square bottles have been around awhile, but I have had several other juices come in my zamplebox that I've had to transfer to other bottles or try to VERY carefully pour them into my tanks. Sure, get a syringe and blunt tip. Then you have that sticky thing laying around getting contaminated for the next refill..or you go through the hassle of rinsing it out.

Come on vendors..the nifty bottles are cool, but we need a way to get the juice where it needs to go. Ahlusion has gorgeous cobalt bottles and they send squonkers to put in them after they are opened. At $20+ bucks a 30 mL for some of these pretty, cool looking bottles, quit being so cheap.

/end rant.

Dude i feel ye, but i got these Plastic Transfer Pipettes 3ml, Gradulated, Pack of 100: Science Lab Transfer Pipettes: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific and they last u a while , also u dont have to mix juices in ur syringe or clean them no more.

Yeah this .... irks my nerves. Specifically the standard juice and a few others.

But I recycle plastic bottles but you lose a little juice.

I use a syringe anyhow, as its the only way to fill my tank - bottles with drippers just get in my way.

ugh yes, most of the bottles i get from drip club are like this. i hate using old empty bottles because they always have some residual flavor leftover from whatever juice that was previously inside. i prefer to transfer them into this tiny glass dropper bottle i have that's sample size, but i only have one of them so that sort of sucks. all bottles need to include a dripper (that fits, i hate ones that the dripper is too small and it's extra hard to get all the juice from the bottle).

I get bottles of Neckbeard's with no dropper. I just cannibalize a dropper lid from an empty bottle I have lying around. A good idea from another ECFer on here. Not always convenient, but in my case, the vendor adds 5 more ml of juice since there is nothing else in the bottle to take up space. So I get 35ml instead of the standard 30. I'm cool with that.

well the best thing about the blunt tip syringe is this. its precision filling. you can pull back to whatever mil you want to load and fill in any spot you want to. and when I get done using it. I take a glass of water, and draw water and push about 5 times....then dry off with a napkin place the top on it and put it bag in its place. all clean. I ran into this same issue. I really got into using the syringe when I had to take juice out of a tank, had some sure buff awesome juice I did not want to waste, and work on the tank.....and place the juice back in. but its not difficult. just requires a couple extra seconds while the juice is not gummy from sitting and you can keep it clean.

Meh, like I said, a small rant and not a deal breaker. It's just annoying to deal with any of that extra hassle when the average price of the fancy, no dripper having bottles runs more than some of the ones that are more convenient (the Ahlusion example). Many of these bottles are very similar, and it would be very easy to include a dripper of some sort. That, and they don't put the dripper in for shipping..it comes separately in the package.

I think the worst I've gotten so far has been from People's Vape (Kremlin)..very neat bottle and hate to transfer it to an empty. I just really prefer the convenience of having my dripper being a part of the bottle.

Funny, I bought 10 60ml amber bottles for premix and they came with droppers. Now, I do not want the droppers so I pulled them off and just sealed with the dropper rubber caps. I use syringes and pipettes for filling and mixing.

I'm another dripper (almost 100%) and this bugs the .... out of me too! If i'm paying a premium for your high end juice at least include the drop cap which people can remove the drip portion from.
