A worn coil is behind most vapes that suddenly taste burnt, so this is the part you replace far more often than the kit itself. We carry the coil heads that fit the popular tanks and pod systems — Vaporesso GTX and EUC, OXVA Unicoil, Aspire, Smok, Uwell Caliburn and Geekvape — in the resistances each device is built for.
The trick is matching the coil to your kit and the way you vape: lower-ohm mesh for sub-ohm clouds, higher-ohm for a tighter mouth-to-lung draw on nic salts. Check your old coil for the brand and the ohm rating printed on the side, then grab a matching pack. Sold by the pack, with same-day dispatch on most orders.

Coils are brand and platform-specific. A Smok coil does not fit a Geekvape tank. Always check your tank or kit model against the coil listing before ordering.
Sub-ohm replacement coils (below 1.0Ω) are designed for direct-to-lung and restricted direct-to-lung vaping, where more vapour, warmer temperature and higher-VG e-liquids are the norm. At VapeCity, the key sub-ohm coil platforms include the Smok Mini V2 S2 (0.15Ω mesh, £11.99), the Vaporesso GTi Dual Mesh (0.2Ω and 0.4Ω) and the Voopoo PnP X coils (0.15Ω DTL through 0.45Ω RDL). Dual-mesh coils use two parallel mesh elements to increase the heated surface area without pushing wattage requirements up proportionally. Vaporesso's GTi and GTX platforms use dual-mesh architecture, which contributes to the consistent flavour response these tanks have built a reputation on.
Coil lifespan on sub-ohm platforms depends on e-liquid type and wattage. High-VG shortfill at 60-70W through a dual-mesh coil typically gives 5 to 10 days of moderate use before flavour begins to mute. Sweetened e-liquids shorten this considerably; sucralose caramelises on mesh faster at higher wattage. Running a new sub-ohm coil at 80-90% of its rated wattage ceiling rather than the maximum extends lifespan without a significant trade-off in vapour or flavour. All sub-ohm coils should be primed before first use: saturate the visible cotton wicking ports with e-liquid and allow 5 minutes before the first draw.
The Geekvape Z Series XM Boost coil range covers the Zeus Sub-Ohm Tank and Aegis Legend kits. Geekvape uses a 'B' designation for Aegis Boost and Hero tanks, 'Z' for Zeus and Aegis Legend, and 'P' for the Aegis Prime. These series are not cross-compatible within the Geekvape range. Checking the series letter against your specific device prevents ordering the wrong coil pack.

Step 1: Find your tank or kit model name (printed on the tank base or packaging). Step 2: Match the model to the coil listing. Coils are brand-specific and platform-specific; a Voopoo PnP X coil is not compatible with a Smok RPM tank. Step 3: Choose resistance. Below 0.5Ω: sub-ohm, DTL or RDL, high-VG shortfill at 3-6mg. 0.5Ω to 1.0Ω: balanced RDL/MTL, 50/50 blend at 10-20mg nic salt. Above 1.0Ω: MTL, tighter draw, 20mg nic salt. Step 4: Prime before use. Add a few drops of e-liquid to the exposed cotton, fill the tank, and wait 5 minutes before the first draw.
Mouth-to-lung replacement coils (1.0Ω and above) are used in tanks and pod mods designed to replicate the draw resistance of a cigarette. The Innokin Prism T18/T22 5-pack (£29.99 at VapeCity) covers the Prism T18, T20S and related Innokin tank platforms. These are built for tight MTL use at low wattage (10-16W) with 20mg nic salt in a 50/50 blend. The coil format is a self-contained unit with a bottom-feed cotton and stainless steel wrapping; replacing the coil removes the main wear component in the tank system.
Vaporesso's GTX coil range (GTX Dual Mesh, £41.99 at VapeCity) covers the GTX One and GTX Two tanks across a wider resistance range: 0.2Ω for sub-ohm at 40-60W, 0.3Ω for RDL at 32-40W, and 0.8Ω for MTL at 12-25W. The same coil pack covering all three modes in one platform is a practical advantage if you adjust your vaping style between sessions. The Aspire AF Flexus 5-pack (£33.99) covers the Aspire Flexus tank range in MTL to RDL resistances using Aspire's AF coil platform, which is distinct from the BVC coils used in older Aspire tanks like the Nautilus.
The Voopoo PnP and PnP X platforms are worth distinguishing. PnP coils (£44.99 for the VM multi-pack at VapeCity) fit the original PnP-compatible Drag, Vinci and Argus range and extend from 0.15Ω DTL to 1.2Ω MTL across the full range. PnP X coils (£45.99) are the updated platform for the Drag X2, Drag S2 and Argus Pro 2 and include a 4-layer leak protection system. The two are not cross-compatible: PnP coils do not fit PnP X pods and vice versa. OXVA's Uniplus coils (£44.99) cover the OXVA Uniplus tank with a distinct coil architecture from the Xlim pod range.
Check the tank model name printed on the tank base, in the original packaging, or in the device manual. Each coil listing at VapeCity specifies which tank it fits. Coils are brand and platform-specific: a Smok RPM coil does not fit a Vaporesso GTX tank, even if both look similar. When in doubt, the coil must share the exact platform name with your tank (e.g., GTX coils for GTX tanks, Z Series coils for Zeus/Aegis Legend tanks).
For mouth-to-lung vaping (tight, cigarette-like draw), choose a coil at 1.0Ω or above at 10-20W. Common MTL coil options at VapeCity include the Innokin Prism T18/T22 range and the 0.8Ω Vaporesso GTX coil. Pair MTL coils with 20mg nic salt in a 50/50 VG/PG blend for best flavour at low wattage.
With 50/50 e-liquid and moderate vaping, a replacement coil typically lasts 7 to 14 days. Sub-ohm coils used at high wattage with high-VG e-liquids may need replacing sooner. Signs a coil needs replacing: a burnt or muted flavour, gurgling, or reduced vapour. Heavily sweetened e-liquids shorten coil life due to sucralose buildup on the mesh.
Yes. Before installing a new coil, add a few drops of e-liquid directly onto the exposed cotton wicking ports on the coil. Install the coil, fill the tank, and wait 5 minutes for the cotton to fully saturate before the first draw. For sub-ohm coils at higher wattage, start at the lower end of the coil's rated range and work up over 3 to 4 puffs. Skipping priming causes a dry hit that burns the cotton and ruins the coil.
Sub-ohm coils are below 1.0Ω and designed for direct-to-lung (DTL) or restricted direct-to-lung (RDL) vaping at 30-80W. They produce more vapour and are used with high-VG shortfill e-liquids at 3-6mg nicotine. MTL coils are 1.0Ω and above, designed for a tight mouth-to-lung draw at 10-20W, and pair with 20mg nic salt in a 50/50 blend. Both are replacement coils for tanks; the choice depends on your preferred draw style.
No. Replacement coils are standalone heating elements that install into a refillable tank or pod chassis; you swap only the coil when it wears out. Replacement pods contain the coil and the pod body together as a single unit; the entire pod is replaced. This page covers replacement coils for tank and pod mod systems. For pod-specific replacements (e.g., Voopoo Argus V2 pods, Caliburn GPP pods), see the relevant brand pod page.
