Vape coils are the heating elements inside your vape tank or pod that vaporize the e-liquid, creating the vapor you inhale. They are typically made of metal wire and wrapped with cotton or another wicking material. Coils are essential for producing flavor and vapor, and their performance can greatly impact your overall vaping experience.

The lifespan of a vape coil varies depending on your usage, the type of e-liquid you use, and your device settings. On average, coils should be replaced every 1-2 weeks. Signs that it's time to change your coil include a burnt taste, reduced flavor, or a drop in vapor production. Heavy vapers or those using sweeter or thicker e-liquids may need to replace coils more frequently.

The right coil for your device depends on factors like your vaping style (MTL or DTL), the type of e-liquid you use, and your desired experience. Coils come in various resistances—sub-ohm coils (less than 1.0 ohm) are best for direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping and large clouds, while higher-resistance coils (above 1.0 ohm) are ideal for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping and a tighter draw. Always check your device's compatibility with specific coils and follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
