Yeah that's why I made it. So people who want to try before they go and buy can use an old cart to get an idea if dripping is for them.

For me, dripping is the only way to go, esp with a de-bridged/de-wicked atty. Which totally rocks my vaping experience.

Yeah dripping seems to be for most. I'm not a dripper and never will be. It's just not for me. But I do like drip tips on cartos when i use them. I'm mainly a cart user.

Did this couple of months ago. Rat tail/round file helps for cleaning it out. I was able to get more cleared out than he did. Of course it can be used without drilling it out if need be or if the user doesn't have a drill.

Always wondered why someone never came out with a simple hollow cart design to be used a a cheap disposable DT.

I did find that eventually the little lip that holds it to the atty will eventually wear down from being attached/removed from atty. Also if one is not adverse to removing the cart to drip, pop out the two plugs, snip off the excess and use it that way too.

Well with the carts I have they have 2 hollow vents on them, and if you file as you are saying it weakens the plastic too much and is why I only drilled a simple 1/4" hole rather than a full 5/16" which fits perfect inside because it weakens it down. So I would suggest 1/4" or not filing out the entire cart to have one that lasts.

Another thing you can use if you don't have a drill and you want to test a drip tip style is use a pen grip (with or without the pen tip) I do believe it orginated as the DDC by name, but the way I use the grip, is alone, it vapes better and you're not blowing thru the pen tip to get the liquid to the atty.

I see pics on this, but haven't seen a full video, so I'll compile one on the Grip Tip style drip tip as well.

I know it's rough to tell, but I'm a girl :p sorry to confuse you. LOL

yep already done that as well. i don't use the metal pens since most are made with copper and coated with nickel or aluminum. i've tried the plastic tips, but i prefer it just the grip tip, so yes the grip tip only is just enough. the only downfall with me being an ego user, is you can't put the cone on, but i still love this DDM/DDC mod.

i made a video on it as well. YouTube - Pen Grip Mod - better than a drip tip

I also wouldn't suggest using the foam grips. Only the one's made from Silicon or Rubber, as they are more heat resistant.

And is it me or does DV's video lag so bad you can barely watch it? I have a T1 line, so I know it's not on my end. Check mine out if you want a quick idea on how this pen grip works. There's actually 3 and 4 different ways you can do it. I only show 3. Pen tip on top, Pen tip on bottom, or no pen tip just the grip alone. Also, I don't like using the tip as a funnel for a few reasons. 1 it makes the atty leak more and 2 you have to blow in it to get the liquid to make it to the bridge, so again. I like it with just the grip only, as it drips straight down onto the bridge (or reservoir if you're bridge-less) and acts more like a real drip tip, plus it's super comfy on the teeth if you're a cart/drip tip biter like me :p

ddrj, If you check my youtube channel there are atleast 10 flavor reviews (i do reviews as i get new liquids or after a mix has steeped). I only own 2 different PVs (3)E9's and 2 eGo's (I love my eGo) and I have no plans for the next few months to buy any other PVs unless it's a box mod. Juice Reviews, you will be seeing TONS of them, as well as DIY Mixing vids. I do have my reviews on the E9 and eGo on my channel as well. I also have I think 3 of 4 full mod vids on carts and cartomizers. I will try to add a video daily, until I run out of new liquids (but I have more coming Sat or Mon) or Mods to show.

I'm trying to trade samples with some friends as well as buy liquids (money pending) when I can. If anyone else would like to swap flavors, send me an inbox I'm always down for trading off .5 - 3mL tasters for something new, even if it's gross. (I like to DIY gross things into something good, if possible)

Venus, I'm noticing I use this mod more than my Delrin, because it give a better drag and better vape IMO.

I'm loving it as well, Shan! So glad I watched the vid. I was actually getting ready to order a delrin before I tried this. I decided to hold off on that order since trying this out.

yeah i just switched to my delrin to see the difference, with using the cart the little lip somehow improves airflow. with my delrin it's letting entirely too much air in and i'm noticing i have to take 3 long drags to compare to 1 nice drag on the cart mod. Enjoy! I know I am!

Once my swirl drip tips come in i'll compare all 3
