Advice: dripper with MVP2 for testing juice
Hi Guys,
I have just gotten an iTaste MVP2 and use Aspire ET-S tanks on it, and although I wasn't planning on doing the rebuildable thing yet, I realised that as I am starting to do the DIY mixing, I will need a way to test the flavours. I was looking at something like this IGO-W Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer and assume I can use this with the MVP2 as long as I don't build coils that are too low resistance. Was going to maybe just do 1.5 ohm coils or something. Have watched a couple of vids on coil making, seems straight forward enough.
1) Will this be suitable to test juice? I want to be able to drop a few drops and test the taste, then switch to another flavour without having residual flavour from the last. From what I understand, this is the point of using drippers. Am guessing I can drop unflavoured juice in to vape out the last flavour completely if necessary.
2) Is the MVP2 okay for something like the IGO-W? It has the ohm checker and as long as I don't go below about 1 ohm am thinking it should be okay, just not sure, don't want to wreck it or risk having it explode or something.
3) Is there something else cheaper/easier/more suitable for my purpose? Saw these 510 Bridgeless Atomizer | Electronic Cigarettes - VapingMadElectronic Cigarettes – VapingMad , but my preferred vendor doesn't have them, and not sure how long they'd last for the price.
Rebuilding seems like the way to go and the IGO-W with drilled out air holes seems cheap and simple enough, and seems like I can use on the MVP2 safely with right coil ohm, but would appreciate any advice, if others think a different setup/option would be better/cheaper, am happy to hear about it.

Best Atomizer For Trying Different Flavors
I wouldn't use a drilled out IGO-W for "testing flavours". Nice atty if you want to knock a bottle of juice back though - but better on a mod that can handle 1ohm loads - no point having an empty air hole (ie single coil e: or blocking a hole), or building ~3+ohm dual coils IMO. besides, the smaller the chamber the better anyway, that's why the IGO-L designed for single coil has a smaller cap.
Get a bridgeless 306 or 510 dripping atty (if you can find GOOD ones these days), or an IGO-L, or IGO-S (again if you can find one) or a mini smoktech RDA.

Cool, thanks for link to other thread too, must've missed that one in earlier search for info. Yeah, makes sense with a single hole/coil if i'm testing and changing wick between each flavour too I guess, so will probably go the IGO-L. Didn't realise you just changed the cotton to change flavours, I thought you vaped it till dry then added different flavour. May look into the 501 dripping atty too, will see if I can find some reviews or youtube vids on them.
Thanks for the advice,
Cheers,
Joe

I Agree with coops, In my opinion i have used the bridged 510 attys to test juices before had two and they didn't last long, and it was hard to actually experience the full flavor of the juice, a bit dull and not much kick to it. The Igo-W was the first rebuildable atty i purchased good to test out how to build micro-coils but if you wanna test out juice with nic, its gonna have to be a lower nic level as 8mg and up would kill my throat (on a two micro-coil build) which i didnt know when i started RDAs. If you want to experience RDAs for the first time and test out building coils for the first time then Get a Igo-L allows for only one micro-coil easy to build no fuss, drip your juice, Vape it, change the wick and vape another (or if the last juice wasn't a strong flavor might be able to re-use wick.
On the other hand Steam in sydney sells Vision Stardust V2 for only $1.95, use and throw away after a week or two.

Yeah, I did consider finding some cheap clearo's as throw aways, but will be trying a fair few different juices, so feels sorta like a bit of a waste too. I would need to buy about 10-15 of them to start, so I guess the dripper will be more economical in long run, but may be worth consideration. Sounds like I might give the 510 attys a miss from what you've said.
Thanks for your input,
Cheers

For me any dripper will do when it comes to testing...but usually it's the little igo-L. Cheap and simple, the perfect flavour tester. I have a 1.5ohm coil that in it permanently... just a quick rinse and new cotton for a new flavour.
As for the MVP. Totally fine...has plenty of grunt for the majority of vapers. I have one and use it often...it has no problem from 1.2ohm and above (for me anyway).

I used an igo L on an mvp2 for ages a while back for testing flavours - its the best way to go for u at this stage as its a good way to learn how to build coils etc
slayer the only thing is that when you get it you will find that the airhole is very small making for a very tight draw - so you will have to open it up
some people like to drill them out - but its is hard to know how much to drill it when you are starting out so grab yourself a small file to file out the airhole - a bit at a time until you are happy with the amount of airflow you are getting
you can get trojan file kits in the toolshop at bunnings for about $15

Thanks, sounds like i'm headed on right track. Have read about the air hole, and think I have a file set that may suit, may even be the Trojan one.
Thanks everyone for advice, really glad I came to this forum, look forward to contributing further and even giving advice in future

Thanks, I was also thinking about 1.5 ohm should be ample and not stress the battery limits, thanks for your feedback and tips.

The Igo-L definitely gets my vote. It was recommended to me by someone in the forum (for the same reason you mentioned) and I still love the simple design. I have only recently begun to look at other dripper options and ordered an Odin from Loki Labs because I want a deeper juice well so I can drip for longer. I spent $7-ish from Fasttech and I don't regret it.
