Coilart does. They are the CTUL series and are pretty new. I have only seen the notch coil available in the wild so far.
hmm really. I dont even see that version listed on their company website yet. Ill try and keep a look out for those
ANyone else know of a crown coil replacement?
The Facebook page shows coils for Crown, tfv4, Cleito, Atlantis types, and Kanger. Looks like Max Vaping plans to carry, but not yet in stock. Otherwise, several Chinese vendors look like they might have.
Heard of Atom G coils for the Crown, not sure if ceramic, but I will wait for Coil Art.
Also, looks like the CTUL coil is for under 50w, kanthal, and .2 or .5 options.
Would be nice to get the Crown out of the draw, give the Kanger mini new life, etc.

Ok... Coilart is making 4 coils for the Crown. The first 3 are identical to the CTOCC (Kanger Subtank) versions and are: .2 ohm Kanthal, .5 ohm Kanthal, and .4 ohm SS Clapton. They should all be 50W max coils and based on my experience with the CTOCC coils 40-42W max for the average vaper. The 4th is the Notch coil and is rated at 60W max. I haven't tried any of the crown replacements but have used the first 3 CTOCC coils in both a Subtank Plus and Protank 4. They are not a replacement for the .25 Crown coils in any way ,shape, or form, but are significantly better than any Kanger factory coil. And have a level of consistency from coil to coil that I appreciate.
Atom Vapes, as @mikeyboy74 mentioned, makes their gClapton coils for the Crown. The .5 ohm 50-100W coils aren't bad. They are very different than the Uwell coils flavor wise to me. But not bad coils. I didn't care for the .35 ohm gClapton or the gCeramic coils that they also make for the Crown.
Just to be clear, none of these coils performed like the 1 out of 4 Uwell .25 ohm Crown coils that actually performed like I expected them to. But I would take any of them over the other 3 out of 4. I realize that many have had different experiences with their Crown coils but in my experience, Uwell's coil manufacturer has worse quality control than every other sub ohm tank maker I have ever dealt with. And I have dealt with some obscure product lines like the iJoy Acme, the Heatvape Ecotank, Zpal Coral, Gigue Aeolus, and too many more to list.
saee i keep reading bout all the consistency issues with crow coils lately
i havent bought crown coils in months and months
but i always got at least1 bad out of a 4 pack
i dont even use my crown
but was looking to pickup a few coils for vapocolpyse

Do you wash the feathers?
It isn't just lately. We ordered Crown coils for our stores in bulk direct at least 5 separate times and many others through distributors. The first order had severe issues even though the coils included with the tanks seemed overall very good. The second order improved. The third order got worse but wasn't as bad as the first. Then it just got worse from there every time.
I can't recall the specifics, but we had it dialed in pretty well what to expect from the coil based on weight. There is actually a sweet spot of about .05 gram difference. If the coil falls in that range it is almost always a good coil. If it is under weight it typically has a harsh almost chemical flavor to it. Occasionally it smooths out but frequently it never does. If it is overweight the flavor is typically muted and the coil doesn't last as long but still ok to some vapers.
The problem is there was never any consistency. In a single box you would almost never have 4 coils that fell into that sweet spot range. Sometimes you would have a combination of underweight and overweight coils in the same box with none that fell into the sweet spot. It drove us crazy until we just said fuck it and dropped the line. It was pissing our customers off and Uwell wouldn't even acknowledge a problem existed. I'm sorry, but if the same amount of wire and cotton is going into every coil the weight shouldn't vary by as much as it does. That was not an acceptable level of manufacturing variance. When we tried weighing other brands of coils the variation was tiny compared with Crown coils.

ok you seen experiend with coil art and vaporwerx if i recall form your othe rposts
my other tank that i love but never use is my maganus OG
i read you thought that either the vaporwerx or coil art worked much bette rthen stock kanger coils
any experience with these companies and the maganus/freemax coils?
The Coilart CTBVC line of coils will work in your Maganus tank as they are Atlantis compatible. Some of them are pretty good coils and IMO slightly edge out the factory Freemax/Vapeston coils. And many are no better than what you are used to with a few being worse. But since you mentioned VaporwerxUSA... let's talk about them instead.
The VaporwerxUSA Monster Vape coil is the absolute best option in an Atlantis compatible coil from any manufacturer at any price. The additional airflow of your Maganus over the Aspire tanks make these coils scream. If you don't like them... there is something wrong with you, not the coil. I have used them in my original Freemax Starre with stunning results. I use them continually in my Tobeco Super Tank 25mm tanks. I run 4 of them and haven't put any other coil in since VaporwerxUSA came out with the new version of this coil. The first Monster Vape coil was really good, the new version is fantastic as long as your tank can handle the required airflow. It is a power and juice hungry coil but as long as you keep it fed, it will treat you right. Now back to the not nearly as exciting Coilart stuff...
My favorite Coilart CTBVC coil is the Alien Clapton... but until Coilart is willing to sell solid 5 packs of the specialty coils in their line the only way to get them is in the assortment packs that have the not so great coils also. As such I have only used 3 of them. All 3 were exceptional though. The Tiger, Fused Clapton, Hive, and Mix Twisted coils were pretty good too and worthy of purchasing. But if your looking for an improvement over Vapeston coils the rest of that assortment is going to be a let down. Better than Aspire or Eleaf branded coils but not by much.
Also less exciting but better than Aspire are Playboy Vixen 0.2 coils, 5 pack from Vapor Range, $10.95 with free shipping. Mine arrived in 3-4 days.
Not a Monster coil or tfv4, but a good long-lasting 60-65w coil at just over $2 per piece, if you are stocking up for the regulations. Replacement coils are listed under tanks for some reason.

Your right... I bought some when Vaporbeast had them on clearance last month for less than $6/pack. They are not to bad.
My "Vapocalypse" coil stash consists of a ton of stuff but mostly Coilart CTBVC SS Clapton .5 ohm coils. Why? Value and versatility. They are some of the best cheap coils made. You can get a decent vape in a Atlantis V1 with one or crank them up and get a good vape in a better tank. Vaporbeast is sold out of them for a reason.
If you really are shopping for that reason, I would use a different tactic. Shop for the deals on good stuff that will work...
