Is there a device to reduce/regulate airflow on a 510 carto?

[Caelius Felix]

I have a variety of 510 devices, and sometimes find that the airflow is so great with some cartos that I can hardly taste the vapor. Does anyone know if there is an adapter or other device for a 510 connection that allows adjustment of airflow to the cartomizer on an existing mod or other device? I have done several searches but found that most people are looking for a way to increase airflow, whereas I want to decrease it. Would appreciate any guidance or tips. Thanks!

There are a couple of options. A drip shield can be useful for restricting air flow a little, or you could get one of these and it would be adjustable

Thanks. The device you linked to would restrict airflow at the tip end, right? Is there anything that would restrict flow at the bottom of the carto, though? I will look into drip shields. Very helpful information!

I supposed you could take a toothpick and bust the tip off blocking the connector slot. Solder and sand for more permanent solution just keep in mind if you get something different and want more air flow your gunna have to desolder.

I believe you will end up with a warmer vape and your coils will wear out a little quicker as the air flow cools as you draw.

Long before drip shields became commonplace we used a simple o-ring to both collect leaking fluid and to adjust the draw on atties.

Just slide the o-ring up to partially cover the connection for a stiffer draw.

You could also use a small bit of heat shrink wrapping to cover the holes, then use a pin to make smaller holes in the heat shrink. Play around a bit and I'm sure you'd get the airflow exactly where you want it.

I love the elegance of the low-tech solutions! Thanks so much.
