If you are talking about the ones where they drill holes in the pipe it works sorta but not really.
The pipe has to be level and it isn't a true drip.
I don't care for it and I think in the long run is more expensive.
Once you buy all of those valves to adjust the flow that may or may not be the same from day to day.
it can add up.
I use 1/2 drip line.
