When to change your coils. All vaping devices have a coil. Coils are the portion of your vape mod that heat up your e-juice, turning it into vapor. Over time, these coils can become worn out, leading to very little vapor production, leaking, or an unpleasant or burnt taste. In this video, we're going to discuss how to tell when your coil is worn out and a couple of tips for making your coils last longer.

When to change your coils. All vaping devices have a coil. Coils are the portion of your vape mod that heat up your e-juice, turning it into vapor. Over time, these coils can become worn out, leading to very little vapor production, leaking, or an unpleasant or burnt taste. In this video, we're going to discuss how to tell when your coil is worn out and a couple of tips for making your coils last longer. The most obvious factor affecting the life of your coils is how frequently you vape. The more often you use your device, the more quickly the coils will be worn out. Also, vaping very sweet e-juices can wear out your coils quickly. The artificial sweetener can essentially caramelize onto the coil and form a layer of burnt residue on the coil, affecting its ability to vaporize juice and also greatly affecting the flavor.

Sometimes experiencing a burnt flavor might just be a burnt wick. In RDAs, the wicks and coils are separate components that can be replaced individually, but in other types of devices, the coil and wicking material are contained together in a component called an atomizer head. In the case of atomizer heads, if you dry burn your coils, that is if you fire your mod without an adequate amount of e-juice saturating the wick, then it will burn the wick and the entire atomizer head will need to be replaced. If you're using an e-liquid with a really high ratio of VG, it will have a much higher viscosity. This means that it will saturate the wick in your atomizer much more slowly.

If you vape really frequently, the wick might not have time to get fully saturated between draws and the wick might burn. If this happens, it might mean it's necessary to switch to an e-liquid that's got a higher PG content, so it saturates your wick more quickly. As to when exactly you should change your coil, there is no precise answer, but if your coil has a layer of dark residue on it, your vape has a burnt or acrid taste, or produces very little vapor despite having adequately charged batteries, it's probably time to change it. Thanks for watching.
