Um, why are people still dripping?

[bunker0617]

Anyone else have this experience now... You go to your local b&m store to test some flavors and you now feel like an elitist when they pass you that ego with cheap atomizer... Ugh as my Reo sits on the counter I try to vape down on this little ego.... Always is an uncomfortable moment for me...

I don't feel like an elitist but it is annoying as hell to vape on those little demo egos/clearos/cartos. In one popular shop in my area, all too often the batteries need charging and the attys are gunked and they won't allow you to use your own mod for fear that you'll burn up there cheapo clearos. You just can't get a good feel for how the juice will taste on a proper setup.

Luckily, my favorite B&M uses cartos and always put a few fresh drops in for you and they allow us to use our VV grands......nice.

Doesn't bother me too much. My B&M is pretty good at keeping their atties in good working order, and their batteries charged.

I still drip because I've yet to order anything pertaining to the REO (RM2, Cyclone) that I had the stones to drill out for dual coils.

I already had a Nimbus on hand, so I drilled *that* out (starter holes were pre-drilled) so I could have some real low ohm dual coils. That, coupled with my ECC edition Vanilla Mod, is something I'm never going to be able to sell or get rid of.

Of course, whenever I leave the house the Alfred (black wrinkle/white REO) comes with me. Just too damn easy and too damn good. Memory isn't serving me well, but as soon as I find an atty that is easy to set up/modify for dual coils with the tools I have on hand (limited) I might just go all REO.

I'm a flavor nut in search for ADV. For that reason I'll probably end up with more than 5 REOs. Right now I have 8 sealed RDAs on the way because I just realized I have over 25 bottles of ejuice sitting there. I'm getting there, to my ADVs though. Pluid/Grenada/Absinthe is one, Grape Escape from NicQuid is filling that space too, and either cinammon flavors or banana flavors is the third (DIY, I did a pure banana flavor with like 20% flavoring TFA Ripe Banana and it was too strong/borderline perfumy). The rest, I like to drip at home from time to time to switch it up.

It's customary to drip, as it was the stepping stone into bottom feeders and the REO.

When we go to the local B&M, they know us. As soon as they attempt to put a drop in their carto, one of the store owners tells them to let us drip on our Reo's. So, they just hand us the bottle.

I've had a question about REO's for the longest time...seems time to ask it.
A bottom feeder uses that bottle and the line coming out of the bottle. Do you use a new bottle/line when switching aggressive flavors? I've always wondered that.

Reos are ugly plain and simple as that

Some people do switch out the tube/ bottle, some have several REOs and designate each to a certain flavor profile.

For most flavors It's possible to clean the flavors out with a good washing, or a soak in alcohol then wash.

I have 9 drippers myself. I use them mostly for my occasional flavors. I am a flavor junky rotating between 30 different juices. That gets reeeeaaally expensive buying a REO and atty for each flavor. I can get a good cheap dripper for 10-50 bucks and have one dedicated for each flavor and get the same flavor and vapor as a reo. Works well for those occasional flavors.

I've relegated Pluid to dripping in disposable attys. I had a problem with it causing my feed tube to swell to the point of hitting the bottle bottom and shutting off the flow. Others have had problems with it swelling the o-ring in the bottle. I read of one who's carto tank o-rings swelled up to the point he couldn't get a carto in or the end caps back on the tube, so I don't want to use it in my glass carto tanks either, or in my ProTanks, which have o-rings. On a REO, it's a good idea to use disposable attys or cartomizers with a sealed 510 to 510 adapter to keep different flavored juice from contaminating that in the tube or bottle.

Technically, you're still "dripping" with a Reo, unless it's automatically fed, you're still dripping.

What the heck is in Pluid that would cause that?

I'm guessing the citrus. The better question is what the heck is in Pluid that makes it so addictive?

Monkey pheromones.

Haven't tried it yet, so I couldn't tell you.

 

[the_vape_nerd]

i still have attys that i use for tasting but to me thats just........well not even real vaping its part of the maintenance, creative end of things, i will never again sit round and drip into an atomizer...good lord what a huge heap of pain in the .... that was

for those of you who say you are dripping into cartos well thats not real dripping as orginally defined

theres a dual coil guy and yes i can sorta see your point but lord who needs that much vapor?...my wife is already complaining about the massive clouds in the car and the house right now

im not even sub ohming the rm2....it roll a 1.4 microcoil with cotton wick and 2 drags in the car you have trouble seeing out the passenger window...in the begining i was choking on the amount of vapor ...now i take shorter drags lol

as for the discussion of bottom feeding IS dripping..well ok you win that one....but its just about 200 times easier when the juice is already connected

 

[txgtr]

The reason I got the Reo was because after I started dripping all other delivery methods seemed to suffer from weak performance. I even tried rebuilding my protank with micro coils in hopes that I would get similar results...no dice. It was better, but dripping definately gave a superior vape.

When I'm at home dripping isn't so bad, but when I'm out and about it can be a pain. Hence the Reo.

The only time I drip now is when I get in the mood for a juice that I know I won't want to vape 5-6 mils of. But now I've gotten a bunch of replacement Reo bottles. One for all my favorite juices and a couple extras.

 

[yaypudding]

I have about 5 tube mods I drip into that are always setup w/ micro's. The juices that pass my flavor gauntlet get put into the reo. Once I use up the 6 mls I rotate to a diff flavor.

Once I learned about micro coils, dripping has become my only vape method. Clearo's & carto's just don't do it for me anymore.

The price for a Reo/rm2 is one of the more expensive dripping mods you can get, but compared to having to buy carto's or coil heads, plus the added convenience of bottom feeding and being able to take the dripping/micro experience with me anywhere justifies the price for me.
