@yinyang your other option is to get an angled one and bore it out, although you would need a pillar drill and a reamer set to achieve a smooth finish, let me know if those anti spit back units are any good since I can't be bothered to buy a new reamer set just to bore out an angled one and see if its what I need

Not what the OP was after - but... the Footoon Aqua FX is the first SO tank i've had that was deigned to not give 'spit-back' - and really seems to work. Then you can use any Wide bore DT you like

I won't be going for that particular one nanotm as it is too short for my tastes but if I can find one at about 20mm long, I will get it and report back. Thanks for your input.

ok well on seeing your reply I decided to give this a try www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rainbow-Stainless-Steel-POM-Drip-Tip-for-510-Atomisers-/281879234105?hash=item41a14fc639:g:SrgAAOSwNphWZu2D

its double the height of the other one so maybe worth a punt, I noticed that the liquids I use tend to produce a lot of blobs and I hate them in my gob so I have been struggling with a narrow bore angled unit for the last few weeks (well when trying to sub ohm at least, they work perfectly for the mini nauti tanks)

I don't know if this will help you, I've been doing it with my tanks since I found it a while ago, I get the pipe screens from E/bay and I already had the punch,
the video explains itself but you need the hole punch shown in the video, it's a single 6mm hole punch, got mine on E/bay for under £2.00, or you can get a set of hollow hole punches if you need bigger sizes,

Spitback

looking on ebay it seems a hole punch and a pack of pipe screens is about the same price as the drip tip so ordered one of each as well, i'll try out both methods and see if either option is better than the other

[mowjo]

The thing I like about using the screens is I'm not stuck with just the one drip tip, I Just punch out a mini screen for each tank or whatever tip I use, the guy in the video says it might restrict the airflow a little, but to be honest I havn't noticed any difference except not getting spitback, if I'm carefull I can just about three mini screens out of one 20mm one, so 150 screens for 99p is good value,,

Great idea  mowjo ... I already have a suitable 6mm hole punch so I only needed to spend 99p for 50 pipe screens!
Thanks for a great tip

I received 3 or these little babies from FT yesterday, and it wasn't until I popped one on a mod that I realised that they have a spit shield in them!

£1.07 - got to be worth a punt!

I hate the DTs with the mesh shields... true, they don't spit, but the juice and condensation tends to build up on the mesh and all of a sudden, you get a whole bloody gob full of juice!

you get he same thing with angled tips only they tend ot indicate its going ot happen as the vape starts struggling to come through and its very muted .... I just pull mine off the tank every so often and dab them on a bit of kitchen towel to reduce the likelihood of it happening

ok my rainbow drip tip arrived this morning and it works great on the subtank but its strange on the nautilus mini, which reminds me I must stop putting 12mg nic juice in the subtank it makes my head spin like when you take the first fag of the day feeling ...

anyhow its effective at blob stopping though I have no idea how it works but the tip itself gets warm
