Coils
Coils are the heart of your vape. This small heating element turns your e-liquid into vapour, and keeping a fresh coil in your device is the single biggest factor in good flavour and a satisfying vape. At Time2Vape we stock replacement coils for all the leading brands, including Aspire, Innokin, Geekvape, Smok, Uwell and Voopoo, so you can always find the right fit for your vape kit.
How to choose the right vape coil
Your coil needs to match your device and the style of vaping you enjoy. The key number to look for is the resistance, measured in ohms:
- High-resistance coils (above 1.0 ohm) are designed for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping. They use less power and less e-liquid, produce a smaller, cooler vapour, and suit nicotine salts and higher-strength 10ml e-liquids, the closest experience to smoking.
- Sub-ohm coils (below 1.0 ohm) are made for direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping. They run at higher power, produce bigger clouds and bolder flavour, and pair best with shortfill e-liquids.
If you're not sure which coil your device takes, check the model name printed on your old coil, or get in touch and our team will be happy to help.
How long do vape coils last?
Most coils last around one to two weeks, depending on how often you vape, the e-liquid you use (sweeter, darker flavours tend to shorten coil life) and how well the coil is looked after. When flavour starts to fade or you notice a burnt taste, it's time for a fresh one.
How to prime a new coil
Priming a coil before first use prevents dry hits and helps it last longer:
- Screw the new coil into your tank or pod.
- Add a few drops of e-liquid directly onto the exposed cotton wicking ports and let it soak in.
- Fill the tank, leave it to stand for 5 to 10 minutes, then take a few gentle "primer" puffs without firing before you vape as normal.
