Dysfunctional droppers

    I am going absolutely insane from the droppers in the glass bottles of "premium" liquids of late. For some reason, they used generally function fine. Recently they have been half filling with some aggressive persuasion.

    Today I opened a bottle from Boosted, the shagging dropper will fill by about 1/5 at the most. Its hard enough to fill a Triton with a dropper, now i have to deal with this it takes about 10 minutes to fill this tiny tank.

    Has anyone found a solution for this, im going to go rooting around again for an old dropper bottle, but i think Boosted bottles are a slightly larger so wont be looking forward to getting around to the end of the bottle.

    Are you allowing enough time for it to suck up the liquid, thicker liquid sometimes takes a second or two longer.

    You could buy some empty bottles with needle tops and fill that way.

    If the tank allows, I just pour straight from the bottle, way faster!!

    +1. Just pour it straight from the bottle.

    Have pretty much given up on dropper/dripper bottles. I bought a few unicorn bottles for my regular juices and keep one for each flavour. Much much easier. Less mess as well.

    Ya i could squeeze the dropper and come back in ten minutes and there would still only be a dribble inside it.
    The Triton is a bit of a disaster when trying to pour into it.

    Ooh those unicorn bottles look great, thanks. Will have to buy a few of those.

    You can get them in 15ml and 30ml sizes at least. I find the 30ml is still more than portable, especially if you use an RDA, it's so handy to have.

    I got myself an Innokin Ucan recently, great little yoke, although it can be a bit slow. Fantastic for drippers.

    Ya from the looks of the unicorn ones they certainly look more portable than the usual glass bottles anyway. But I have a 6 year old smartphone which I refuse to part with so i have plenty of pocket acreage :P

    The innoken ones look great, they always catch my eye but never bothered to buy one. Worth consideration really.
