You are a man after my own heart, I agree with the reasons you mentioned though I have to admit that RTA s have come a long way in the flavor category and that's a bold statement from this flavor chasing dripping junkie.View attachment 78682
I enjoy RTA (Rebuildable Tank Atomizers) tanks very much but I am leaning more towards buying RDA's (Rebuildable Dripping Atomizers) lately. This post is by no means an attempt to diss RTA or coil tank users. It's just an expression of why I like RDA's so much and why I own more RDA's than RTA's. Obviously both RDA's and RTA' have their own unique purposes for different vaping moods and occasions.
This has been discussed manny times, but to all the newcomers to this forum, I thought it may be helpful.
So here is why I love dripping:
1. RDA's don't break easily. I am a bit of a clumsy vaper, and tend to break the glass tanks on RTA's easily. It is sometimes difficult to find replacement tank glasses, especially when the tank is out of production. And they are pricey. If you take care of a good quality RDA it can last you almost lifetime.
2. RDA's have an interesting, novel appeal. There is something enjoyable about the ritual of having to place a few drops of e-liquid in the juice well and to vape. I like tinkering or playing with gadgets. Drippers look raw, compact and solid. RDA' are more "hands on". There is more of an interaction with the vaping experience. It's almost like the ritual of tobacco pipe smoking where you need to constantly tend to the pipe to get a good smoke. RDA's IMO are generally speaking, enjoyed more by eccentric or adventurous people.
3. Dripping saves juice. If you fill an RTA or any other atomizer, and you get tired of the juice, you have to dump the juice, clean, re wick and re juice. Dripping allows you to taste, clean and re wick with minimal juice consumption.
4. In order to test a new batch of DIY juice, a Dripper does the job. It's sometimes a waste to test in a tank.
5. This may sound weird, but sometimes if you are dripping e.g. a fruit e-juice, you can vape until its dry, then drip another fruit juice. Occasionally you get a nice mix of flavor which actually teaches you how different flavors blend / interact with each other. Especially if you are into DIY. Or you can just chop and change within a specific category of juice, like different puddings, cereals or cream based juice, with the same dripper provided that you vape the wick dry in between re juicing.
6. Generally speaking, the flavor and or airflow control is better in an RDA than in an RTA, RDTA or tanks with factory coils.
7. It's nice to have a few dripping RDA's while working at a desk and being able to quickly chop and change between different juices.
8. You can quickly and cleanly lift off the top cap or chuff cap of an RDA to inspect your coil and wick builds to see the condition. With a tank you have to unscrew it while filled with juice, which can be messy depending on the design of the tank. An RDA can also be cleaned quicker than a tank.
9. If you are a "Cloud Chaser", there is no doubt that due to the construction compactness, and direct hitting from a mod — from most good RDA's, you will get bigger clouds than an RTA or an factory coil atty.
10. Dripping is just cool. I immediately took to it soon after I started vaping. It's not for everyone. It's a different art to vaping which just bites some vapers, but not others. It is relaxing, it gives you something more to do, it's like driving a manual car instead of an automatic.
I own 11 RDA's. My favorite dripper is the Goon 22ml. For some reason, it just performs better than any other dripper I have and the clamps are so versatile. I love everything about the Goon and will be getting a 24mm soon.
Are there any other dripping enthusiasts out there who can add to this, and perhaps enlighten a newcomer to the wonderful world of dripping?

or its as easy as swap out with another bottle 10 seconds and quick few squeezas and you on the new flavour. This past few days in the bush has just shown me again why I love my Reos no fuss quick pitstop this morning rewick in 5 no need to even wet the wick just squeeze and wait squeeze and wait, done dripper like flavor. I haven't really touched my poor SM25 this week.
