drip tips

[Jemima]

I dont have a huge collection of drip tips but I have about 8 now, and I need a some help. I've noticed my little drip tips dont seem to be a one size fits all.

Some fit the cartomisers, some wont even squeeze in and some just fall to the floor and seem to shrivell up at the mear mention of insertion.

I've tried swapping O rings from one that fits to another and that didn't seem to do the job either.

If only all plastic tubes could be the same size, but alas this world is not perfect and neither are my tubes. So how do you go about getting a drip tip that fits ? or gettign an old favourite to fit a new tube?

isn`t a drip tip a "tip from nicky"??????

[HeadHunter]

Sorry Jemima I cannot help you out there, hopefully somebody will be along soon who can.....

I've found the same problem. I've found myself resorting to a free one that I got off a certain someone and that fits everything

Yep, it's the non-standard tubes causing the problem - drip-tips are a tiny bit flexible but I had a helluva job finding one for Clearomisers.

I bought a Minus (like Arry) tank from Cloud9 - that has a very chunky rectangular mouthpiece and it fits Health Cabin clear DC cartos a treat, and it doesn't cling to my clothes and get pulled out - and it doesn't show teeth-marks I've never seen them selling separately so I dread losing this one.

I think I must have been lucky Jem, as I've not had any problems with the drip tips I've bought fitting atomiser's/carto's . . . ill fitting cartridges used to be my bugbear.

I've got 4 now, one metal and the rest plastic and I prefer the plastic I have to say.

Anyway, they all fit 510 atties and cars fine but I did have another plastic one that was a pretty tight fit and that one eventually snapped at the end where it pushes into the attie/cart.

All the drip tips I have fit all of my 510/901 cartos/atties. but need a sliight adaption to fit ny 306 Boge cartos.

However, I have "melted" a couple of drip tip due the not keeping an LR attie/carto wet enough & it getting too hot. End result being the drip tip becomes loose.

When I say cars I do, of course, mean carts - they'd be far too loose on cars

[Chrissie]

Would depend on which model of car Rog

I've no problems with drip tips on 901s and 510s and I use the dinky DTs GeordieKev sells on Clearos.

The regular DTs fit the Smokeymisers fine.

What I would like to know, is why is it that Teddy Dog only crunches up the pretty DTs and not the boring black ones ??? (Guess it'll be a trip to the vet when he launches into the metal one en route from H ).

Hmm maybe its just me then

I know that feeling well...

you could alway just wrap a bit of streched electrical tape around the drip tip to make it a bit more snug
