But you'll spend how much on a BB that will also be in that pocket?? Haha. I ordered one from drip tip designs for the BB and one for my other mods. :)

The bb does its own justice. . All on its own ;)

You say that, but at the same time... I just don't want it to look tacky. -_-. I'd love to get my hands on an SS Ming from Cherry Vapes, but I really can't afford that right now. :(

Definitely. I feel awful having to use an acrylic drip tip for the first few weeks of having my BB. It just feel like it doesn't do it justice.

my favorite tips are the swirly colored acrylic mings... i like um just about better than any other tip... i only throw on the carbon and showboat tips for fancy dinner parties / coffee with the president and such....(cough), the majority of time i keep a simple metal tip on my boxes because i drop mine so much....
this tip has been a great little guy, stainless, nice narrow mouth piece, cost 4.99$, will never break, looks super neat-O.....

Yeah, I'm looking at getting something like that. Problem is, you don't get anything that nice for less than $20 in these parts of the world. Being in Europe? Sucks sometimes.

Actually it isn't because those other ones are going to have to be replaced, and more often than you think. That one does not have to be replaced so quickly. Mine is over a year old and still going strong with no deformity to the carto and I punch A LOT of cartos, at least 15 a week at times. The secret to longevity in a carto tank is actually your punch. You get good holes in your punch and your carto is less likely to flood and your o rings last a lot longer. It is the ONLY punch I have found so far that has a cobalt tip.

my argument is simply targeted at price. it may be the ONLY punch available that lasts, but i dont see the material or manufacturing cost to add up to what it is. i might be wrong however. just seems like this product should be 25-30 bucks or less.

Hey, I have that drip tip too. Thanks for telling me where you got it. It was indeed a good price. Only problem was, being in the UK, the shipping cost more than the tip did. Boo.

Oh I totally agree with you on that point. And I didn't want to pay that price either, but I got tired of constantly replacing the self-tapping thingys and then moved to a few punches in the $15-20 range and was still replacing them so in the long run I did save money buying it but I agree it's overpriced for what it is but let's face it....there are many overpriced things in the vaping world for what they are.

this is a local shop for me, so that's where i picked mine up.
ElectronicStix.Com · Stainless Steel Hourglass Drip Tip
but it's not a US made tips so some European resellers are sure to have it...

oh.. and i ordered a few pairs of the those 700mah lithium manganese efest cells, a few people have asked me about um now and i couldn't give an opinion... i'll play with um a bit and report how they do. they look promising,,,
