As far as I know and understand, liquids are pretty universal.

Due to the thicker viscosity, 'slow flowing' nature... high VG content liquids tend to perform a bit better in RDAs than in restricted orifice, pressure differential type RTAs.
High percentage or maximum VG liquids are common with cloud competition type vapists due to the thick, heavy vapor clouds that can be produced.

I vape "drip ready" max VG in my RDA's and RTA's, but as State said...they are ideally suited for drippers.

I have seen special liquids just for dripping.

Is "drip ready" usually described on a liquid description or are there special companies that sell them only?

Dripping liquids ar normally marked as "Max VG" or have a high VG % in the mix.

For the best cloud production should I go 100% vs? does the taste change with high vG?

Check out the fuzion prime line from fuzion vapor. They get the flavor percentage right for max vg juice intended to be dripped in a sub ohm setup, the strawberry in yo soul is heaven.

You do have to let these steep for 3~4 weeks because of the max vg ratio. It will be good out of the mail but it's not at it's best yet.

SIYS is a fav of mine... kind of a mothers milk with more emphasis on the strawberry so it's not pukey after vaping it for a while. I DIY that one so i haven't bought it in a while. They have added some more since i shopped like unicorn blood which is off the charts if your into sweet fruit vapes.

Just check out the ones that seem to be your flavor style, their all good.

It's not cheap, but it is really really good in a dripper.

Me too, just not an all day vape for me. Everyone's different though.
SIYS is a adv for me, that extra strawberry kick keeps my taste buds awake.

Yeah I too only started dripping (again) about 2 months ago and I have definitely found there are some juices, which I hated in a tank, that are great on a dripper, and visa versa. Best I can tell, the more complicated / layered flavors tend to really shine on a dripper. All the other comments about VG ratios are spot on though from what I've experienced in the short time back to dripping. (I used to drip ages ago, but that was on just plain 510 atty's without and wick. No comparison to an RDA

Howdy fellow vaper. I drip and only drip. This is the big difference between max by and say a 50/50. Max by juices do produce insane clouds but do not and I mean do not have any throat hit at all no matter the nic. amount. If you do go let's say above 6mg you will puke your guts out. If you use a 1.8 mg in a tank use a 6 in a dripper because you will use three times the juice and will get three times the flavor and nicotine. Personally I like a 70 30 @ 6mg and really get a nic buzz. Look for epiclouds juices especially the donut one or my all time fav nutz. Steep them in hot water for sure. U will fall in love. Remember my fellow vaper, vApE hArD or dOn'T vApE aT aLL. :)

FTFY
and........so you say no TH regardless of the amount of nic then say above 6 and you'll be puking?

I often drip strait plain VG just to clear out the leftover juice. And I could even put new wicks and drip pure VG and there will still be some TH from it.
Nicotine is where the bigger part of TH is. So not only did you seem to contradict yourself you also seemed to have misspoke.
I'm not trying to pick on ya.
Just saying you're not quite being accurate. And generalizing a bit too much.

As always, have fun and vape safe!:)

All that is doing is warming up the juice. Which changes its vescostiy. This allows the flavoring to mingle easier.
It's just a speed steeping trick.
VG doesn't carry flavors like PG does. PG is a great flavor carrier which is why you often see flavoring in a mostly PG medium.

For sure.... u ever open a fresh bottle, take a good whiff and you are expecting something different but only smell a very strong single flavor like a strawberry in a strawberry vanilla cream for example? Not a wink of vanilla anywhere... it's because the strawberry is a alcohol base flavor and the vanilla is not and just sits in the backgrounds of it all. Well if you heat alcohol it evaporates and evaporates very quick. And just blends and brings out all the other flavors. Makes the bland pop and the intense calm. This is what I do. Take a fresh bottle and open it for a sec and let air in and alcohol vapor out. Close it. Shake it for five mins. Run the bottle under hot hot tap water until bottle is same temp as tap water. Fill a bowl half way with tap water. Microwave til boils. Shake bottle some more. More is better. Now open bottle and place in bowl making sure it cannot tip over. Let sit someplace safe til it cools. I let it sit in microwave. About hour or so. Close it up and shake more. Now it ready. Give it a try with some juice u already have open. It makes even the best juices better.

Vg is super super smooth to both me my girl and one of the guys I work with. Pg has a good th and lots of nic just makes us feel sick but nic has the super strong th like a cig tho. I guess everyone is different though.

Higher vg content is usually what you'd look for when dripping. Drip tonic is a great line for dripping check them out. They have an awesome vape called funky monkey it's so heavenly

I dont understand how peoples drip.
I try dripping on a tugboat using 0.42, 0.52, 0.66, 0.87 ohm built, and i can't seem to get into it with both lung hit and mouth hit.

I like custard type. I like the vape on my clearo 1.5 ohm. And try dripping it, its warmth(kinda like that) but its too sweet. And the taste/smell seem the same on a 1.5 clearo... Just sweeter and more vapor.
Did i do something wrong? Or is it just that?

Did you try even higher on your ohm's? I drip at anywhere from .8 to 1.8 depending on my juice that I am using. If it's Peaches and Cream I like it around .8 ohms if it's a local makers blend I like it around 1.1 ohms. There are a couple others I have tried that I actually like higher up around 1.8. Each juice for me has a sweet spot and I play around till I find it.

Hm...I thought people usually drip at 0.5 ohm or lower, guess I'll wait for my kanthal and cotton and try dripping 1 to 1.5 ohm

It's whatever you want to make it at. Some like the lower ohms, I don't. I run single coil and I'm not a cloud chaser, although a good single coil can put off a very thick cloud depending on the juice you are using. I run 28ga Kanthal on a coat hanger wire that I cleaned off to make my coils with which comes in close to a 5/64 bit and 8 wraps generally gets me in the 1.5 ohm range.

Lol I'm not interested in cloud chasing at all.
I only wanted to try dripping cuz, all the review I see, people boast its all that, vapor, flavor, throat hit, this and that.

They make it sound heavenly. So i wanted to try.

I do it for the flavor, like I said I'm not a cloud chaser. Each person is a bit different in what they are after. Remember a crappy juice wont care what it's put in it's still not gonna be any better. I tried a bunch of flavors at a local B/M until I found one that I really love but I had to use my equipment since theirs had a silicone sleeve you had to use, for sanitary conditions, and it completely muted the flavor of the juice.

Funky monkey is my personal flavor. But when I bought that they sent me some samples and my son and fell in love with the American pie. Not sure if that is the correct name but it was Apple pie flavor. We dripped that warm and boy was it really good. And I'm not crazy for apples but that changed my mind quick. I love Drip Tonic for my dripping juices too

It's interesting, it seem i might have done it wrong.
Before i drip with premium ejuice, afterward i use my dripper to test unsteep ejuice.
And lately I've notice i start dripping alot with standard juice. Perhaps pv\vg and or premiun play their role in dripping.

Because I've been enjoy dripping non premium Hawk Sauce and Blue Moo 20/80v juice on 0.4 ohm(I try to stay above 0.5)
