Stupid question before starting drippin'

[Armageddon]

Hi there’
As a lot of vape fans, I tried a lot of different RBA atomizer, and I would like to try Dripping…(it seems every serious vape rends up doing it sooner or later…)
But beforeI start, I still have a lot of stupid questions for you guys…like :
-Is it absolutely necessary to do it with a meca, or can I do it with something like a Provari ?
-To add the liquid….well, how do you do that ?...do I have to take away the top cap each time or is there an other way…or system to add the juice ?
-And finally the most stupid one : since there is no tank, but only the coils (or sometimes « juice wells as I’ve seen somewhere) can I turn the thing upside down, or will everything come out ??

Thanks

-You can use an RDA on a provari, it just has to be built above the provari's lowest ohm limit.
-You can drip through the drip tip depending on how large the bore is. I usually take the drip tip off or sometimes the top cap depending on the atty.
-I would recommend keeping any rda upright. You could probably tilt it a bit without it leaking but just keep it up right to be safe (and not get liquid all over you)

to ecf Armageddon. So glad you are here and believe me, there is no such thing as a stupid question here. That is what makes ecf such a special place. Always someone here to help you.

I fell in love with dripping and started out with a very easy igo-L. I guess that is why I ended up not being able to use anything other than a reo. I think they are the ultimate dripper. Personally, I had more leakage with the Kayfun I tried than I have the igo's or the Eternities. Just a minor inconvenience for getting the best flavor from your juice. The igo's only hold around 10 drops, whereas the Vision Eternity hold closer to 40 drops. With the reo grand.........you have 6ml's of juice ready to drip at your every whim. I just know that the same juice was using tasted so much more pronounced when I tried dripping so I definitely say "go for it". Have fun.

No issues using a RDA with the ProVari. I started with an eBaron Pro dripper on my ProVari Mini. Also used the IGO drippers, as well.

Thanks all for your quick answers!
Now I know what I wanted to know....and I'm gonna order a dripper TODAY!!

Well, just another thing: can someone give me some input on what to choose, knowing that I like quite cold vape, easy build, dual-coil, and that I'm looking for taste as well as clouds!!...there's sooooo many models!!!

as a biginner, is it ok to use disposable one first?

Like you, I was curious about dripping with only a 15 watt device that will not fire below 1.2 ohms. Spent about ten bucks on a Patriot clone, another couple bucks on some 30 ga wire and off I went. Learned to build a consistent 3 ohm coil and now can not put the dripper down when home. Double 3 ohm coils put out decent vape and the flavor is so much better than any of my clearo's or carto's.

Man, do you go through juice when dripping compared to using any sort of clearo or carto. The Patriot holds about ten drops but will leak if tilted to much with the air hole on the low side.

Please start your own thread if you would like recommendations.

I would recommend a magma, they are easy to setup and so versatile. Can use single or dual coil, adjustable airflow, holds a lot of liquid for a dripper, gives great taste and you dont have to put heaps of power into them to get a great vape.

Although it will work with dual coils, given the amp limitations of the PV I would recommend starting with a single coil build, say around 1.6ohm using nothing larger (smaller gauge) than 30 gauge Kanthal.
