Pro Tips for Extending the Lifespan of Your Vape Coils

Whether you use an advanced mod or a streamlined pod system, your coils are the heart of your device. The coil is responsible for heating your e-liquid and turning it into vapor. Over time, all coils naturally wear out and require replacement. However, practicing proper hardware maintenance can significantly extend the lifespan of your components, saving you time and money.

The Importance of Priming Your Coils The most common cause of premature coil burnout occurs right when a new coil is installed. Priming is the process of manually saturating the cotton wick with e-liquid before firing the device. When installing a fresh coil or pod, always apply a few drops of liquid directly onto the exposed cotton windows. Once the tank is filled, let it sit for at least ten minutes to ensure the wick is completely soaked.

Mind Your Power Settings and E-Liquids Running your device at a wattage higher than the recommended range on the coil housing will quickly degrade the heating element. Additionally, e-liquids with very high sweetener contents tend to leave caramelized residue on the heating element, a phenomenon often referred to as coil gunk.

If you notice a burnt taste or a sudden drop in flavor production, it is time for a fresh replacement. Keeping your device running smoothly is simple when you have access to a fully stocked inventory of replacement pods and name-brand coils at K Town Vapor Lounge in Kennesaw.
