why do so few people "drip"?

I have a hard time believing that.
ROFL...
Post a pic of your toolbox El !
Ha! Mine is constantly screaming too. What did you think of the By Leo stuff? Their Dripper is pretty fantastic. Once I found it all of my other drippers got tossed into a drawer to waste away in loneliness. I drip about 95% of the time now.
there is nothing magical about dripping that instantly makes stuff taste better, just people who cant build proper wicks tanks
In my experience, flavor comes from coil position and chamber size more than the build. You're very limited with a tank.
I tried 10watts again very little difference.leading me again to believe that unless you are sub inning at like 30 watts then dripping is not going to be any better.
Well it's true you're not going to get a huge improvement vaping at that watt with an RDA. However there are some factors that are different depending on coil placement, chamber size, etc. I got an Igo S a year or so ago just to use to test flavors & once I got my placement on that dripper set right there's a definite difference in flavor with the dripper over any tank. In fact it was so much better that several of my juices actually got USED because they tasted super good in the dripper while not being as great in the tank.
HST they definitely do their best work at higher watts. But for me personally, once I started using my dripper I used my tank less & less & now I use a dripper exclusively with a Reo. Going back to tank after using a dripper was just not as satisfying.

Get it very close to the air hole & not higher or lower but right in front of it. For me it took a bit of fiddling at first because I was obsessed with having the legs on my build the same length. It turns out that, at least with the drippers I have, having the legs the same length doesn't allow for getting the coil where it should be. In the Igo S I use I build it on the left side (negative post closest to you when looking down over it) & the negative post leg is super short while the positive leg is longer. So it's sort of at an angle where it nearly aligned with the edge of the building deck, but just short of it. so then when I put the cap on it's about 2 mm in front of the hole directly in front of it (hope that makes sense. I can't post a pic right now but someone else might be able to provide a pic).
That's one of the reasons I love the Dripper Pro. Small chamber and the coil is centered directly under the drip tip. Makes for a very warm, concentrated vape, much better than any of my big-decked drippers.
I do not like box mods at all so the REO was out for me. My first dripper mod was a K100 and it was a good beginner dripper but really didn't have much to attract me to full time dripping. I went back to pens and my SVD but it just wasn't the same. I upgraded to the Vanilla mech mod and am now a full fledged dripper. I have a simple job that gives me 10 minute breaks and I drip then. Sometimes I take a pen and take a quick hit in the break room now and then (they allow it as long as no one is eating). But the Vanilla has the boldest flavor and the triple coil offers me some nice hits. The drilled holes in the atty offer massive clouds that I could never have imagined (just looks impressive, doesn't really effect vaping that I now of. At home I purely drip and love it. I suppose most people assume or have decided that dripping is inconvenient. I get that, but love the experience and so I am a full-fledged drip advocate.
i did the same thing! vanilla copper and a Patriot! .6 ohms dual coil and cotton... friggin' clouds and flavor....YUMMY
electric angel with a Brass monkee....wowsers... if you've never done it.. try
I thought this way when I first discovered gennys. Only had experience with dripping. Didn't like the idea of building with steel mesh for a wick so tried a kayfun as my first rta. I liked the convenience of a giant tank, but it wasn't as nice a vape as my drippers. About a month after that I saw a video on building a genny with cotton, just like a dripper. Ordered an RSST to try it out. Holy balls it was just like using my dripping attys! Just as easy to setup and the vape was identical, but now with the convenience of a tank. I own 8 gennys now and haven't touched the kayfun in months.
Best genny I own is a kraken. Single or dual coils, amazing airflow control. Even the clone version (hcigar) is a great, cheap way to try out a genny. Lots of people recommend an rsst but the kraken clone is about the same price and a much better atomizer all around to learn on.
I still primarily use drippers, but having at least one genny is great for when you need a tank and don't want to sacrifice the quality of your vape. Perfect for driving especially.

After having such amazing success with the Dripper Pro I sprang for a Sophia recently (rebuildable cartomizer, doesn't use any fill). I have an AGA-T2 and a couple of Kraken clones but I love the Sophia; the flavor is really great, and the reducer built into the body concentrates the vapor and flavor. It's on par with the Dripper. I still drip most of the time because I like to change flavors a lot but have a tank of Mother's Milk on the Sophia, and just ordered another one... man, that By Leo thread is killing my wallet.
