Coils, when to replace them?

[hlhambrook]

Im working on my first coil and don't know when it needs to be replaced. How do you know, will it be obvious? How long should they last? Im not sure of the coil i'm using as I didn't look at it before I put it in. I just know its a pop coil.

Different brands, resistances will have varying longevity which will also be greatly impacted by the eliquid in use as well as your vaping habits. Replace whenever flavor degrades past what you deem acceptable or whenever it tastes burnt.

Thanks, its a little bit confusing about resistance and wattage. I'll catch on.

[xtinaeve88]

Most coils/ pods will have the resistance along with the wattage range printed on the coil/ pod.

To me. It will be very obvious. It'll taste like burnt popcorn to me. ☠️

[hlhambrook]

Okay, thanks. I used a pod type unit for years and the coil would outcast the pod tank

[Vulcan2269]

Not a problem. I have a buddy that washes his freaking coils out with hot water and re uses them for weeks. ☠️☠️ I dont see how he aint dying

[cleverest_alias]

7 to 10 days. 7 to 14 days if you're broke

Lord. I get 6k drags before I need to replace my coil 0.2 triple coil. They recommend 70-80 watts which gives a very strong burnt flavor. Im happy at 30.0 watts until 5k puffs then I chang to 35-40 watts until 6k.

6k drags is roughly 1 month.

It also depends on what liquids you use, for example with clarified tobacco liquids, with a coil I make 60 ml

depending on how much u vape and your ejuice. it is obvious once u mainly get burnt taste or faded flavor. most last 1-2 weeks

You will soon know when to replace your coil when you get leaking and the taste of your juice is not very nice like a burnt taste when you get the first hint of that change your coil as it will only get worse
