Wider bore = more loose airflow bigger clouds cooler vape at high watts. Narrower bore = denser flavour warmer vape. Some people don't like metal tips they get hot for them, i must have asbestos lips i guess because i can slap a stainless steel tip on anything and it doesn't feel hot to me. Other than that it's really just aesthetics. Fasttech have a zillion different drip tip options all materials, sizes colours etc at cheap prices. If you want to order from the UK then there's TheDripTipStore they have a big variety although to be honest a lot of the stuff they sell is the same stuff as on fasttech you just don't have to wait for shipping but pay a little extra. Then there's all the hand turned hand polished stuff like Garry Dibley's or Evl Vapors, more expensive but then it's going to be when someone is doing the work by hand and not churning them out by the thousand on factory line.

PM me your snail address sc00terx and I'll have a looky for some and see what I can find (may only be 2, maybe more? Unused) Always remember the lovely person when I started vaping 4.5 years ago on here who sent me my first two drip tips on the basis that 'I would need them' - seriously not a prob and no I don't need any monies Other than that - yeah fast tech!!! Jane PS. I have no wide bores - I don't sub-ohm - is that ok?

Practical drip tips.. If you drive, grab some soft silicone drip tips £4 for 50x or thereabouts in lots of colours. You dont want to be holding a 2battery mod and SS tank to your mouth and encounter a pot hole /bump in the rd if white n purple are colours that suit you cover the stamp and i will send you some out.. Some folk find that long day vaping with a SS drip tip can result in the nasty accumulation of drip tip cheese.. Its happened to me working late snacking and drinking coffee and its unsightly and a bit off putting to watch someone pull a cheesy drip tip towards their mouth... teflon/ptfe drip tips wont let anything stick to em drip tips are the first thing to dislodge with pocketing a mod between vapes and can get lost so a few backup cheapies when out and about will save you sucking a bare atty top for a vape then there are a multitude of aesthetic reasons colour and materials to match mood/mod While you can buy very beautifully worked and designed artisan crafted drip tips, imho the chinese web sites where you can pick up 10x or more for the cost of a single artisan crafted option are the best places to look

+1 for FT enter turquoise or jade in their search box for some nice ones. Recieved good advice here - you can never have too many drip tips. Metal tends to get hot. I like acrylic but I chop and change.

I am vaping a dual coil kanthal at 1ohm on a Cthulhu at 35w-45w with a stubby SS dt. You don't need asbestos lips, but warm to me may be hot to others. A bit like juice favourites, it's about what you like. And only you know that sc00terx Take your time to find what you like. It took me ages to find what I wanted my vape set up like.
