Default Tungsten info

Just wondering, how many of you guys use tungsten? I use it quite a bit. Mainly on my braid rod. The sensitivity is much greater with tungsten and braid. On a rod with flouro or mono i dont use the tungsten often because i do it for sensitvity, and with the lack of sensitivty with "plastic lines" i dont waste the "t". Also i really like putting a GLASS bead behind the tungsten, it makes A LOT of noise.
what do you guys think?

Tungsten is awesome, but it does get a little spendy after while. I use tungtens maily for dropshotting, your right there is more sensitivity with these type of weights. To overcome the issue with floro I use a harder line like the Sunline Metan.
