coil

Hello all. I did not see a thread dedicated to this awesome creation so I decided to start one. If you build coils and you do not already have one, it is the best investment you can make. I have been making my own coils for a long time but never really had any luck with clapton coils. (I am...

Just wondering how many people still build coils of their own, since I know specialty wires come on 50 foot spools for dirt cheap now and premade alien coils are sold in brick and mortars. Rebuilding has become a somewhat lost art in this recent year, so I figured I would make this poll to see...

Hi guys, I'm new around here and been lurking for a while now and i have a question. I've been vaping on my wismec RX200 with griffin RTA on dual coil made of kanthal wire giving me .26 ohm without any problem, just beautiful. Then i had to travel and didn;t have access to any of my build kit...

Hi Guys, I have a Smok Alien Mod and using a TVF8 tank with it's coils. I usually smoke on 130w but when i smoke on a lower wattage and sometimes on the same wattage i hear a boiling / cracking sound. The only time i dont hear the sound is when i pull really really hard. A few friends of mine...

Hi everyone. I needed some help and not sure if this is the right section. I recently cleaned my tank throughly and then my mod started popping up an error - Check Atomizer. I changed my coil and my mod seems to work fine. Needed some help to fix my coil and I am posting pictures for the same...

Hey guys, I bought a RDA Goon clone about a month ago and lately I started noticing that when I pull my wick out to re-wick I have this reddish colour where the coils were. Could it be rust from it being a cheaper version? I took the Rda apart and I cannot find any rusting or anything like that...

So I have been using kanthol Clapton coils regularly and I just built with stainless steel for the first time... it was firing great but it tastes like garbage, is this normal???

So, im new to vaping and i have a general question...does the coil produce harmful smoke? i mean, probably its ok to inhale the smoke which comes from the cotton but what if the coil also produces smoke? i dont want to inhale smoke that comes out from a wire...

I hope this is okay to do but I have a couple questions and I don't want to clog up the forums with several different threads that I figured I'd just go put them together. 1. I don't understand ohms law despite trying to research it, I think my biggest issues are knowing what the volts and amps...

I'm relatively new to vaping. I'm using an eLeaf iStick 20W with a KangerTech Nano subtank. I use a 1.2 ohm coil. I have my battery set to 6.9 W. I was told that I should be able to get up to two weeks out of these coils but I'm currently only getting a few days. Is there a way to extend coil...

Hello - I started vaping about two months ago - am using a target pro 75W mod with a vapresso tank - coil is cCell 0.2ohms - i vape in TC mode at 420f (Ni) - I tend to chain vape at work (not drag after drag but every few minutes i'd say) the taste tends to go away very quickly - i am currently...

i am using clapton with inner 24g kanthalA1 and 26g SS316L for the wraps, inner diameter is 2.5mm and 5 wrap each coil running in 0.24ohm usually with 80watt more or less. i found that my rda gets hot in just a couple of drag maybe 6-9 drag. is my clapton too much? it gets hot really fast and...

Hi, im a beginner and planning to buy Eleaf Istick Pico 75W. Can someone please let me know if Eleaf EC Head Atomizer Coil 0.3ohm will be good enough for temperature control or the best coil that can be used for temperature control? I want thick clouds and good juice. (I have heard Stainless...

Hi vapers, I was thinking about the amount of flavour I got from my coil lately since i'm using a 0.18 ohm coil and these have a great flavour too but at a higher wattage... No complains about it but i'm considering to increase the flavour and maybe decrease the clouds (if possible I would keep...

I have a Joyetech eVic VT that works great but I'd like to replace the tank. I was thinking of getting the Smok TFV4 but it seems to come with a lot of different coils and I'd like to know if I have to purchase the Ni200 coils separately since I've been using the nickel mode on my mod. I'm new...

Hey Guys, I've been only getting 60mL's of juice through my SMOK Babybeast before i have to switch the coil. Running .15ohm coil at 70 watts usually. I changed the airflow and i'm getting a little bit more but I'd like to see what you guys think, put your answer in to this poll in the link below...

Hello. I recently purchased a vapstone Ceramikas tank and at first I absolutely loved it... But as soon as it came time to change the coil it started leaking every time I filled it. I have been using EC coils 0.3ohms that I had left over from my eleaf istick pico. Are these coils the problem...

I have an ABS parallel mech box mod by Cigreen. I just got it & I'm new to mechs. I have an alliance V2+ Big Boy RAD that I normally run on my IVP3 at .27 ohm. I switched to the ABS but it takes at least 10 seconds to heat up but won't even make decentish clouds. I tried .5 Clapton. I tried...

So i have built a single 18650 mod which is working very fine, but i want to challenge myself and build something more double. My uncle got me some vape batteries he doesnt use anymore because he left mechmods and i just started. So, i got two efest imr 18350 (700mah) and two efest 18500 v.2...

Cloned Aspire Triton "Clapton" Coils -- BUYER BEWARE Packaging is very convincing that these coils will be spot on. However -- they are not. How to tell the difference -- First thing I noticed was the spelling error of the website address, I then noticed color difference on the "swoosh". Look...

I tried to change the coil in my kangertech subvod (SSOCC coil) the other day but I think something went wrong? Ever since I tried to change it, it doesn't turn on. When I press the button it blinks the way it does when it's out of battery life but I know for a fact it is charged. I took it into...

Just want to get peoples opinion on what seems to be better, the uwell crown or the crown 2? Been looking at both and people seemed to have problems with the the uwell crown 2 at the start due to the coils. However I don't know if this has changed at all or if the issues with the crown 2 have...

I just started vaping to quit cigs and i have a BMI V1R4mod running on 2 MXJO 18650 3000mAh batteries. At 80.0 watts it reads 5.30 volts and 0.32ohms and the battery voltage reads at 7.95 i was wondering if this is a safe place to be vaping at ? or would i need to change something or get a new...

hey, guys. Just signed up cause I need advice! Just changed my coil and the new one has a hole in the cotton. It's pretty small but when I blow into the mouth piece, I see bubbles coming from only that hole and liquid leaks out more easily. Is this going to harm my vape in any way?

Hello! So I had a aspire Atlantis, and my brother gave me his Smok Beast TFV8 with a Tesla 200w TC. I just got the new coil and it worked. But when I turn it past 60w it says atomizer short?!? I don't understand. The guy at the store said it was a 8 coil? I'm almost to the point of switching...

A simple coil with a 1 ohm resistance. (or pretty close) Use 2 for a 0.5 ohm dual coil set up. I did not tune the coil, just showing how easy it is to start coil building. Hope this helps

I recently saw a post in Instagram (below) that got me wondering why almost no one does jumbo builds. I myself thought that a single jumbo coil on a series mod would do just as well as a dual coil on a mech mod. Thoughts? https://www.instagram.com/p/BMeYkjegr2G/?taken-by=negative_resistance&hl=en

Hello, I've been using steam engine and vape tool apps to build my coils, but I'm putting together a new mod, and unlike using 18650s or 26650s I'm using a 3s 11.1v 50c continous 100c max 5000mah lipo on my dna 250. I have a 46mm alliance fat boy rda, and want to run 8 coils. I'm using advance...

Hey guys and gals. So, I very recently got into RDAs and rebuilding. So far, I am in love. I was just wondering, why do some of the coils I have tried pop a lot more than others? Some will have lots of small pops while firing, some will fire and have a large pop near the end, and some hardly pop...

Dear Masters of Vaporizer , Which RDA do you think is best among these : Tsunami 24 Mutation X V5 Dotmod Tsunami 22 Mutation X V4 Troll Or are there other RDA you'll suggest better than these ? Honestly for me, I'm totally at Tsunami 24 but haven't bought it yet , still need lotsa infos from...

I'm using the Kanger Subox Mini-C which came with a 0.5 ohm Nichrome coil and overall I am happy with my setup. I'm just curious if there would there be any advantages or disadvantages to switching to Kangers Clapton SSOCC. As far as I'm aware both coils will work in my VW vape but I did read...

Has anyone tried this? I'm currently using it in my 2mm 8-wrap dual coil build, reading at 0.39 ohms

I was trying to put a picture but at the moment my crown is stuck and can't open the coil out. anyways, my coil (ni200) is brown but the cotton is still very good. This happened to all the coils that came in the box, .5 and .25. I ended up tossing them because they didn't wanna work out...

Newbie vaper here, A few months ago I bought an istick TC40w from a friend (he is now in boot camp so I can't ask him), and now I have two tanks with burnt coils. The Aspire Mini Nautilus, and the Horizon Artic. Does anyone know what type of coils I should buy? Any help will be greatly...

So i bought one of these new ceramic coils and it leaks for some reason not so much but after i use it a lot or i dont vape at all it starts to gargel and leak a little bit. Also if i shake it some drops come out. I checked if i didnt screw it in tight enough but i did and it still leaks a...

I changed the coil in my aspire plato a few says ago and its still not giving me any clouds. I thought maybe it took a little while to soak up the juice but it doesn't seem to be working. Please HELP!! Thank You!

my coil is not getting hot enough to turn my juice to vapor, well some of it is vapor, but I'm getting juice in the tube and mouthpiece. I am using kanger vertical coils 1.2ohm coils at 15.5 watts. I am vaping on a istick 100W. If I turn the wattage up much higher I get a burnt taste. Anyone...

OK I'm a total noob to coils and RTAs, this is my first one. I've been researching this for a while but I'm suffering from information overload! The coils that come preinstalled are kanthal single wrap claptons .35-.45 ohm (mine read at .44) and are 3mm diameter. The deck diameter is 17.2mm and...

Hey everyone! So i recently purchased the Smok H Priv and put on the Indulgence Mutation X V4S RDA. I am new to building coils and wanted something that will tell me what my coils need to be vaped at (wattage). So does the H Priv really help you? and what is resistance lock? From what ive heard...

which coil is best for the ijust 2? 0.5 or 0.3

Hi! My TFV4 TF-R1 coil smokes (even when there isn't cotton placed and wicking done). It has like a burning cotton/rubber taste/smell and smoke seems to come out a wire attachment hole, i can't figure out why it's doing like that.

Started vaping just 2 weeks back. I made a single spaced coil with 24ga SS316L wire. It reads at 0.35 ohms. The juice seems to heat up too soon and at just 170 C, the vape seems to taste burnt. Whereas with the stock OCC heads i could comfortably vape at 220 C. Could not manage to get my hands...

Do i need to keep rewicking my coils And cotton everyday with my RTA? Ive got the griffin and the herakles.

Hey Vape Family ! So you probably going to laugh at me, well i can understand. Got a couple of questions here where i hope to get some help with! So first things first, my Setup: Eleaf iStick TC100W with Herakles Plus Sub Ohm Tank (0,2Ohm Coil Ni200). Well, since i started making my own...

How do you you re wick your coils when you want to put a new juice in your tank, and you don't have new coil? Or you don't? Whats the deal?

Howdy Vaperinos! I just got my Boreas RTA in the mail.. and it is a ripper! More than happy! Whereas leaking is an issue for some... i am not having an issue.. but where i am is dry hits.. I am running 2x9 wrap 26g kanthal (0.58ohms) on it at the moment at 30-40w.. i am using koh gen do...
