Tips Keep Falling Off....silicone Glue???

I have several needle tip bottles with the metal syringe type tips which I like. The aggravating thing is the gauge of the needle makes for either super slow filling or I squeeze to hard and it seeps from around the base of the cap. @#%+$&#&$!!! For the love of all that is holy...someone please tell me they know where to get wider gauge needle tips. I believe the color of the caps has to do with the actual gauge of the tips but for the life of me I can't seem to find an actual chart with those color codes. I know they make luer lock caps for bottles but I would rather have a one piece cap and not have to buy two separate items for one cap lol. Also I've been looking at the unicorn bottles. Do those tips work with rta's like the Lemo OG for example? Can I buy just the caps or do I have to buy the entire bottle? Also syringes don't travel well but I have several of those on hand already. The plastic needle tips are OK but I have had issues with them popping off in mid fill...sheesh what a mess. I have plenty of bottles... I would just like to find a decent needle tip cap with say a 16ga needle.  

I'm trying to look for a couple cheap drip tips for my subtanks. It's tough ordering these online without being able to see them and fit them on your tank. Most I see the part that connects into the tank doesn't look as long as the one for the subtank, so I'm afraid it will be a little loose and wobble. I'm looking for something around the same size maybe a little bigger.  

Any suggestions on cleaning squonk bottles. I’ve got both silicon and plastic. Tried hot water in a plastic one but can still faintly smell the juice in it. Soon as both new mods come in hopefully the plastic bottles will be backups for backups.  

really random and specific question here. i recently got a kanger subtank mini. love it. around various vape shops and what not i see a lot of people with the subtonic mini but with a 3rd party drip tip. most of the times the tips are really short. idk why i just think it looks really cool but i don't know where to look for such drip tips. anyone have any pics or recommendations they could share?  

I feel like our drip tips get a little neglected around here, while the mods and atties hog all the attention. But what part of your vape could be more personal than your mouthpiece?

I have a small collection of Vape Stash tips, all with their own purpose (and more to come). I love them. I care for them as well as I do my other components. Furthermore, they tell us a little about each of our personalities!

So whip 'em out! Let's see your straws of glory!


I like red.

[EDIT] A search pulled no similar thread, which is shocking enough to me to suspect this is a dupe. If that's the case, please let me know and I'll close and repost appropriately.  

It's about that time that I have started to re-wick the OCC coils in the subtank. Looking for some performance tips. I'm currently using Muji japanese cotton which is working well and this is what I have noticed...

too little cotton, the atom will leak and burn easily
too much cotton; no issues burning at all but the flavor is muted.

I've re-wicked 5-6 times this week to experiment. With the Muji sheets, I cut about 5-6mm strip, remove 1/2 the thickness, then after threading through the coil, I will cut about 4mm from the end and stuff it back in the OCC head.

What are your tips and preferred materials?  

I love the colorful resin drip tips. It seems like they keep getting wider and wider.

I am looking for colorful, nice drip 510 tips that are a bit narrower (not super skinny just not hugely wide).

Any recommendations or links?

Thanks  

Hi,

I just bought a litre of 100mg/ml unflavoured PG E juice.

I calculated that if it doesn't go off it should last me 10 years. It came in a sealed plastic bottle.

I bought a dark amber glass bottle (which I have sterilized) to put it in but I was wondering if it would be better to leave it in the original sealed plastic bottle rather than breaking the seal to put it in the glass bottle? I took the lid off and it has a proper seal over the rim of the bottle like a Gatorade.

Also the glass bottle I bought came with a plastic lid but I doubt it will be 100% airtight.

Thanks for your advice, any other tips would be much appreciated.  

I am a confirmed tootle puffer although a chain vaper. My coils are generally 1.8 to 2 ohm and I rarely go beyond 11watts. Even when on a whim I wrap a slightly lower ohm coil I still never go beyond 13 watts. Still I find my drip tips get too hot and burn my lips especially when I use the kraken. I have sores in a couple of places. Is there a way round that. The other day I bought a couple of long ceramic drip tips, the ones normally used for e-pipes but I find they get filled with too much condensation.

What do you guys do? Do you have this problem?  

The one thing i still have trouble with in my vape shopping is finding nice drip tips. Most unfortunately I live out in the 'burbs where there are no vape shops, let alone one with a large selection of drip tips that I can try on my RBAs live. I haven't found many vendors with what I would call a "great" selection of DTs, vapordna being one of them. I'm willing to pay a little extra to get a quality DT, I find it makes that bit of difference that can take a good set up and make it great. The few times I have ordered DTs from FT I found that I don't really end up using them either because they don't fit quite right, don't feel quite right, or suffer from lower quality in build and/or materials. The best luck I've had has been with vapordna's premium tip section but I know there are tips out there which are just as good at a far cheaper price. So I posit the question ... where do you get your tips?

Specifically I was recently at a B&M a few cities over looking at an HCigar Orchid clone and while I didn't care for the Orchid I loved the DT, I just couldn't justify buying an atty I'll never use just for the DT ... I don't like to collect things like that. It was a fat medium length SS tip with a delrin base/core and 2 O-rings. It fit like a glove in my SQR which I find has the most precise 510 drip bore of any of my toppers, which shouldn't come as any surprise since the SQR is Swiss
