zenjen Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 So I'm on day 2, and am curious about how long the drips last? If I drip 3-4 drops in the atomizer how long or how many puffs approx. should that last me. Just looking for opinions, I know it's not exact. P.S. I'm using 510 mega.

nana Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Approximately 10 to 12 puffs at 3 drops. For me anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lily Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Hi, you know, I've read the 10 to 12 puffs per 3 drops of drip several times. I know I'm not flooding my attys, but it seems when (and if) I pay attention, I'll drip 2-3, then vape 2-3 and then it's time to redrip...hmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolly Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 lily you using lr or take out the bridge/wick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lily Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 lily you using lr or take out the bridge/wick? On my way to trying lr's, haven't removed a bridge/wick, tho have looked at the videos. If I drip more than 2-3, liquid is all over the place. idk... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I was always on the 5-7 puff range for 2-3 drops with a regular ecig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddavelarsen Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I'm with Brian on this one, 5-7 drags before redripping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 3 drops seems to last somewhere between 10 to 12 puffs for me too. Sometimes less, nut at least I'm somewhere around what everyone says Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I supposed to remove that or is it ok to leave in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 I may have been a bit high on the 10 to 12 puffs remark. I was thinking that was it, but it's been a long time since I actually counted. If I try more than 3 drips my atty leaks, so that's all I ever use at one time. I know that. And no you're not "supposed" to take it out. You can if you want, but most people don't. I'm afraid to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried it once, didn't notice any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Thank you both for getting back to me on this! One more question: how long do you guys use the mouthpiece? (or whatever the name is for it Well, I made a few into drip tips and have been using them for months. I drop it into some alchohol once in a while to clean it. I've tried a few real drip tips, but like the cart as a drip tip better (link below). Since I don't use it as a cart, can't really answer your question, but as long as you clean it once in a while, should last a long time.

nana Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 While I was still using carts, I used the same ones for 6 months at least. I did clean them now and then, but they were still fine otherwise. I've been using drip tips for several months now. I have a whole bunch of carts saved because I keep thinking I'll try Brian's drip tip idea...just haven't done it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
