An elongated leaf tip from which excess water drips off, as found in plants of the rainforest.
Plants in the Amazon rainforest that have drip tips include bromeliads, orchids, and heliconias. Drip tips are specialized leaf adaptations that help water to run off quickly, preventing the growth of fungi and bacteria in the wet tropical environment.
The drip tips act as a tunnel directing water downwards. They have adapted to cope with high rainfall. It is thought that these drip tips allow rain drops to run off quickly. Plants need to shed water to avoid growth of fungus and bacteria in the warm, wet tropical rainforest.

Because the rainfall is very often and very heavy, and the water needs to get to the forest floor there are drip tip leaves. They're shaped to a point for easy waterflow and often waxy/slippery to get rid of the water quickly. The tree would also not be able to photosynthesize (produce it's food via the leaves and sun) if the leaves were covered in water.
Drip tips are mouthpieces for electronic cigarettes or vape tanks that allow users to inhale vapor. They come in various shapes and materials to provide customization options for users in terms of comfort, style, and vapor production.

a drip tip. no scientific term.
The drip tip plant has evolved its elongated, downward-pointing leaf tips to efficiently shed excess rainwater in tropical forests, helping prevent fungal growth and allowing more light to reach the lower leaves. This adaptation promotes the plant's overall health and survival in its wet and humid environment.

contaminates will be less likely to drip inside the burner this way
A "Drip Tip" is the mouth piece used on an advanced (modded) Vape device. Simply put it is a buffer between the heating element and your mouth (lips) to allow the vapor to cool a little, and it prevents "drips" of juice from reaching your mouth (it does not taste good).
There is some extra paint in the tube so when you release, it just drips out.
Trees have a drip tip to facilitate the efficient shedding of water from their leaves. This adaptation helps prevent the accumulation of excess moisture, which can promote fungal growth and damage to the leaf tissue. Additionally, drip tips allow rainwater to run off quickly, reducing the risk of leaf rot and improving overall health in humid environments. This feature is particularly common in tropical rainforests where heavy rainfall is frequent.
