Coils

Choosing the right coil can make or break your vaping experience. Here’s a rundown of the main types we stock at Vapeforest, each designed for different preferences:

Picking the perfect coil for vapes doesn’t have to be tricky. Follow these simple steps to get it right:

1. Know Your Device
   Check if you’ve got a pod system, sub-ohm tank, or something else. Each needs specific coils. For example, a Voopoo Drag X takes Voopoo PnP coils—easy!
2. Match Your Vaping Style
   MTL vapers (tight draw, higher nicotine) should go for coils above 1.0 ohm. DTL vapers (big clouds, lower nicotine) need coils below 1.0 ohm. It’s all about what you enjoy.
3. Check Wattage Range
   Every coil has a sweet spot for power, like 20-30W. Make sure your device can hit that range to avoid a weak vape or burnt taste.
4. Pair with E-Liquid
   High-PG e-liquids suit MTL coils, while high-VG ones are best for DTL coils. Using nicotine salts? Stick to higher resistance coils for the smoothest hit.

Keep your vape tasting fresh with these coil care essentials:

• How Long Do Coils Last?
  Most coils last 1-2 weeks, but it depends on how much you vape. Heavy vapers might swap every 4-6 days, while light users could stretch it to 3 weeks. Sweet or thick e-liquids can shorten coil life too.
• Signs It’s Time to Replace
  • Burnt Taste: That harsh, scorched flavour means the coil’s done.
  • Less Vapour: Weak clouds signal a worn-out coil.
  • Gurgling: Odd noises often mean it’s flooded or failing.
  • Leaking: A bad coil can sometimes cause leaks—time for a new one!
• Priming Tips
  For replaceable coils, drip e-liquid onto the cotton wicks before fitting them. For pods, fill and wait 5-10 minutes. This stops dry hits and helps coils last longer.
• Cleaning Hacks
  Some coils can be rinsed with warm water and dried fully to extend their life. Check your coil’s manual first—not all can handle it.

Good maintenance keeps your vape smooth and saves you cash.
