Choosing the right replacement coil for your device involves considering a few key factors:

1. Ensure the coil is compatible with your specific device; different devices require different coil types.
2. Pay attention to the resistance level, measured in ohms. Lower resistance coils (below 1 ohm) are suitable for direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping, producing larger clouds and more intense flavour. Higher resistance coils (above 1 ohm) are ideal for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping, offering a more cigarette-like experience with a tighter draw.
3. Consider your preferred e-liquid. Some coils work better with high-VG liquids, while others are designed for high-PG blends.

Vape coils generally need replacing every 1 to 2 weeks, depending on usage frequency and the type of e-liquid you vape. You'll know your current coil has reached its end once you feel a lack of flavour, reduced vapour production, gurgling sounds, or a burning taste. These are the main ways your vape will signal that it's time for a new coil.

Sub-ohm coils have a resistance of less than 1 ohm and are designed for direct-to-lung vaping with higher wattages, producing larger clouds and stronger flavours. Standard coils, on the other hand, enable mouth-to-lung vaping, a sensation much more comparable to smoking cigarettes.

High VG e-liquids are best for sub-ohm coils. Their thicker consistency ensures better vapour production and prevents leaks in sub-ohm tanks. Higher PG e-liquids work well with regular coils, as they provide better wicking and a stronger throat hit. They are thinner, providing better wicking capabilities for regular coils and delivering a stronger throat hit, which many former smokers prefer. You can find the VG/PG ratio on your e-liquid bottle.

Replacing a used vape coil is straightforward. Power off your device and follow these steps:

1.  Remove and empty the tank: Remove the tank from the battery or mod. If there is any remaining juice in the tank, pour it out to avoid spills and make the process easier.
2. Unscrew the old coil: Unscrew the old coil from the vape tank’s base or coil housing.
3. Prime the new coil: Before installing the new coil, prime it by applying a few drops of e-liquid to the wicking material visible through the coil’s holes.
4. Install the new coil: Screw the new, primed coil into the base of the tank or coil housing. Ensure it is snug but not overly tight to avoid damaging the threads.

Now, with your new coil installed, you can fill your vape tank with your favourite e-liquid, waiting a few minutes so it can fully saturate the wicking material. Once saturated, you can start using your vape as normal. If your device features adjustable wattage, we recommend starting at a lower wattage and gradually increasing as your new coil settles in.
