What do mods vape shops use for taste testing?
_____________________________
It really don't make any difference at all what [mod] that vape shops use for taste testing ... but vape shops usually use a drip atomizer since so many different flavors of juice are being vaped on.
It's not practical for them to use a tank type atomizer.

Well shops don't use anything for testing anymore. 
That is if they want to remain legal.
Personally, I test flavors in whatever device I intend to use that juice in. Otherwise, the taste test is invalid.
Use to be that you saw shops with rows & rows of CE4s lined up with different flavors. Well .... they all tasted like a bunch of flavors in CE4s. Then you would get home and put it in your sub tank, and it wasn't even close!

My local B&M charges $2 to taste, which is refundable with purchase. I didn't realize that was illegal! I know they also can't actually set up a device for you but can talk you through it...

Most of the ones near me seem to use Picos and older Ego styled regulated tube mods.
My favorite shop uses pen style MOD's all have a tank with labels for the flavor and the give you a latex or rubber tip for the mouth piece. Now there is a minor charge to taste test but I am not sure what he charges.
That's true, I just assumed California laws were the most strict!

That's curious, using a dripper would mean that they'd need to clean the coil and rewick EVERY time the person switched flavours...
I've never seen a single store do this at all, those that can still offer "testing" all have several mods available BUT have every flavour in a tank by itself next to a bottle display... aka if they have 30 flavours, they'll have 30 tanks, each filled with that flavour, and the client borrows one of the mods and simply put the tank on the mod and switch through them. (with a disposable silicon tip cover that you can keep for later testing)
As far as the question of the mods, it's usually just about any mod that they probably have lying around, usually one that they've used / passed around, basically "beaters".
One near me does this. They have rows and rows of K1's all over the place and several buckets of disposable tips. You just affix the tank on your own mod and try it.
I'm a man, and I can change, if I have to, I guess.
Interesting input, as I haven't stepped foot into a B&M vape shop in quite some time. So they are charging for tasting now, hmmm, seems an interesting way of getting around the no free samples issue. The last shop I was in, they had a full set of sub-ohm tester tanks. They were probably one of the better vape shops on Long island and truly helpful guys to work with.
The one I frequented used a igo dripper with a stove top coil in it. They would stuff a little pillow of cotton underneath and rewick as we went. Super fast and great flavor.
I have also seen the ce4 army, a shop that had every thing in protanks, and one where you tested on your own device.

Noted. Picture from Avail in Virginia.
99% of the vape stores in Spain CLOSED years ago when the press warned about a death from lipid pneumonia. The EU is HEAVILY dependent on cigarette revenue so alternatives are "discouraged".

That $2 fee is to get around the new regulations that do not allow free samples anymore. I believe that's the way most B&M stores are getting around the restriction.
To be honest, the easiest way to test flavors is to buy a small single coil dripper and wick it with stainless steel mesh. Each flavor can be dry burned off and a new flavor can be tested without rewicking.
The shops I frequent use Eleaf ijust kit. They are charging $1 for tasting, and you keep the drip tip... Pretty decent nylon tip, too... not soft silicone...

Got one here at home, but don't like toting it about... Works great.

Testing flavors?
Dripper with NO wick.
Just soak the bare coil and vape.
For shops, add a simple rolled SS mesh wick. Short with no tails outside the coils.
Vape once to taste, dry fire to clean.
No waste, no fuss, no wick changing.
The three shops I worked with all eventually did this.
Just change the drip tip for a new customer.
Its the easiest, cheapest way to test flavors.
