Drip tips - confused about sizes

[Globalbloke (Tim)]

Really sorry about all the stupid questions, they will stop soon I promise. I wanted to buy a new drip tip for my LT, I am using the DCT 3.5ml tank, I presume it's not a 510? If not is it a 306?

Thanks

[Jemima]

I belive the lava tube is a 510 fitting, so if your not using any adapters 510-901 for example then the carto should be a 510 carto and a 510 drip tip should fit.

Otherwise I'm confused lol

[Chrissie]

Don't ever apologise for asking questions Global, that's the main reason for the forum (though there is a lovely social side as well ).

It is actually a 510 drip tip that you need as the dual coil cartomiser in the tank is a 510 fitting.

Thank you very much, 510's it is! I'm on "another" spending spree, just got a LT 510 Ego Tank connector and a couple of those Vision Ego Clearomizers, next on the list is the Riva 1100... will this ever stop?

Probably not for a while

For gawds sake, even the tips aren't easy to choose from, everything is designed to make me want to spend flipping money. I like these tips in blue:

But there again, there are so many to choose from, again, I guess it's down to personal pref as to what to go for. Right, where did I put my card?

The part that actually goes in the mouth on those that you linked to is quite large, They look great in the pics. Just a warning, for something in the same sort of style but smaller mouth section may I suggest something like this www.vapeescape.co.uk/cherry-vape-dream-tip-**the-pawn**~233 Most sites stock these or similar.

Lovely, but I wouldn't spend more than £5 on a drip tip

[Scylla]

Those "Ming vase" types don't suit me cos the lip end is a bit small, requires tight pursing of lips. But mine are cheapo Health Cabin ones.

I have about a dozen different drip-tips and have found that not all of them fit all cartos, or the other way around ??? So I would go for a cheap supplier where you can get a few different styles. Unless you hear from someone who's got the same kit as you have who can point you to something you like that definitely fits

[Globalbloke (Tim)]

Ah ok, so I am getting a little carried away then? Thanks for the heads up about the size blakey and yes, looked at the "pawn" ones and they looked small but if the others are huge that'll be why Scylla thanks for the warning about sizes, I guess £5 is a load to waste if the darn thing doesn't fit.

Think this is my personal way of saying to myself, I'm never smoking analogues again so I want to have all the kit, this doesn't always mean "go and buy every single thing you need immediately" does it?

Maybe I should calm down for today and wait for my current purchases to arrive first and then see what I think I need next

[Scylla]

It's a pity you didn't think of including one with your kit order, but it's always a case of "if only I knew then what I know now" It's a shame to pay P&P on a piffling item. I don't have the DCT 3.5ml, but doesn't it come with an aluminium drip-tip? That'll keep you going

I have got that tank yes, and it did come with a tip but it's a plastic one and I just fancied an upgrade. I am pretty awful with buying things, I always go a bit OTT :-[

I do agree with you here, because of all my investment in vaping geat, there is NO way I'm going back to the nasties

[Chrissie]

I bought the gold one of these to use with my GGTS - they fit perfectly on either a Boge or Dual Coil -

But as Scylla says, wait till you need to place another order to save on the postage Or you could even wait for the next group buy from health Cabin as their drip tips are so cheap.

I bought one of these in Stainless Steel for my DCT and I have to say, it's the best drip tip I've had.
