Go to fasttech and buy the following

K100
Sony us18650vtc3 (or sony us18650vtc4)
Helio dripping atomizer
An ohm meter
And a charger that charges the batteries seperately

Then all you need is kanthal cotton/silica and youre good to go

Just to give it a try, I bought an igo-L for $12.50 and a $2.50 drip tip. It's a very simple two post dripper. I'm building 1.7-2.0 ohm coils and running it on my Vamo. I continue to be amazed at the difference between it and my other stuff (Protanks, T3s, and even my Russian 91%).

Cheap way to dip your toe into the water.

I don't think I've ever seen these types of batteries at stores other than vape stores. I looked once on a Batteries Plus website (there are stores here locally) but didn't see anything that would work.

Its slow yes that is correct... But a k100 is less than 20$ a helio dripper is 7$ and the 2 sony batteries are 11$... 38$ for everything you need except the charger, that will be about 20$ i guess...

The shipping time should be up to 14 workdays and depending on your toll/tax rules you get everything for half the price a b&m will offer

I use nothing but fasttech for my mod purchases and im a happy vaper

I just bought my FIRST dripper myself:

Igo-W5 RDA by UD

It is on sale right now, for $21!

https://atozvaporworld.com/products...rebuildable-dripping-stainless-steel-atomizer



From the looks of it, it seems like the PERFECT dripper to get started with.

I've also heard repeatedly that the Igo-L is the best dripper to start with. Inexpensive, works really well, time tested and true.


As for batteries and charger, I suggest you go to RTDVAPOR.COM They are a fantastic vendor that has great prices on the batteries and charger you need.

For dripping, make sure you never go cheap on the batteries. If you plan on going sub-ohm now or in the future, you want a battery that puts out AT LEAST 20amps. I would pick up (2) 18650 batteries, 20-30amps. Even if you don't decide to sub ohm now, you probably will in the future, and they are only a few bucks extra.


As for the mech mod......I suggest you get a GOOD clone. https://atozvaporworld.com has some really nice clones. Personally, I got a Magneto brass from fast tech (they sent it to my on accident) and I love it.

If you wanna drop $100-200 on a mech mod in the future, by all means, go for it. But for starting out, I definitely recommend you stick to a high quality clone. Today, many of the clones are JUST AS GOOD as the originals, for a FRACTION of the price.

Some clones are cheaply made though, so I would read some reviews first.

I placed my first (and last) order from fasttech this year. It took 40 (YES, FORTY) days for my order to come. Well....I shouldn't say MY order. They actually sent me someone ELSES order. Then I made a ticket, and it took them another 10 (yes, TEN) days to RESPOND to the ticket. Eventually the person who got MY order sent it to me, not fast tech.

I ended up just saying screw them, and kept the mech mod they sent me. I would have sent it back, but I didn't hear from FT for 10 days, and I assumed they weren't going to respond, so I went ahead and bought a battery and charger for the mech mod they sent me on accident.....so at this point, I'm keeping the mech mod, lol.


Anyway, yea, terrible first experience. Hope yours is better if you decide to order from them.

This is exactly what I think I am about to do. Where did you get your Igo from?

Funny you say that. Went to a vapor store recently and asked if they had Cisco attys. he told me that's not dripping and tried to sell me on a Rebuildable.

Needless to say I left the store in a heartbeat.


We can argue and opinions will always be different but to me flavor in a HH 357 is second to none period.


The cheapest way to try dripping it to just buy a $5.00 Joyetech atomizer from pretty much anywhere.
Sometimes I think people have forgotten you can drip with any atomizer, not just rebuildables.
:laugh:

Don't worry, I won't bother arguing.
I think it's pointless to argue about anything vaping related.

As you said, opinions differ, so why bother.

I've been happy with my standard 510 atomizers for well over four years now.
And I really don't want to have to start building my own.

But if I have to, should Vaping Armageddon ever come, I probably will.
I just hope that day never comes.

Damn dc2 still around sir and the same avatar as in 2011 I love it.

Yup, can't argue with you on that.

A. Regular attys or ciscos work like a charm and are not too expensive
B. I have fat fingers and I am way too hyper to build my own

Just bought a protank 2 assuming you actually out a regular atty into it like the AMP tank just to figure out that at one point I have to rebuild it or throw it away lol.

But hey, if a Rebuildable keeps you away from the cigs or a $5 atty does the job as long as we stay away from the cigs everything is good with me.
