What Are Coils?

Coils are made up of cotton wrapped around a specific type of wire that heats up and produces vapour from the e-liquid soaked into the cotton.

Coils, atomisers and atomiser heads can all be used synonymously, but there are differences. Their materials can range anywhere between nichrome to nickel – the important thing is that each achieves a different effect. Without swamping you with details, this guide will help you match your vape coil to your desired experience.

What Coils Last the Longest?

Which coils last the longest? It sounds like a simple question, but it can be complicated. But don’t worry, we’ll break it down so you can feel confident in your choice and find the longest lasting vape coils for your style of vaping!

There are thousands of coils on the market, some are good and some are really awful. What separates a good coil from a bad one is how long it takes to begin burning, its taste and its vapour production. 

There are things you can do to help your coil perform better. If you use your coil on a wattage that is higher than recommended by the manufacturer, then it is likely to begin burning. Check the packaging, website or side of the coil to find out its recommended wattage. If you want a coil with great flavour, you should buy one with more surface area. You may want a coil with high vapour production, so you’ll need low coil resistance and a higher wattage range – these are called sub-ohm coils. 

A coil with a long life span is one with quality cotton that soaks e-liquid efficiently, good coil surface area and a recommended wattage that has been chosen carefully to ensure this long life span.

Enough with the details, let’s get to the top 5 longest lasting vape coils in 2024!

How to Prime Your Coil Properly

Priming is essential when you replace your coil. It ensures that the cotton inside has soaked with e-liquid so when the coil heats up, the cotton isn’t left dry and burned.

To prime your coil just follow these 4 simple steps:

  1. Drop a small amount of e-liquid on the cotton, usually visible through the holes at the top and on the side of the coil.
  2. Ensure the cotton inside is soaked through but not dripping.
  3. Install the coil and inhale several times through your vape with no power to draw the liquid through.
  4. Set your device to the lowest recommended wattage and gradually increase to your preference over time. Try not to exceed the highest recommended wattage.
Be sure not to over fill the coil with juice as it may leak through your tank and cause connectivity issues and/or liquid damage.

Why Are my Coils Burning?

Coils sometimes burn quicker than advertised and this can come down to several reasons.

Firstly, on some occasions a coil that burns unreasonably fast could be a counterfeit product. Some manufacturers include a scratch check QR code you can scan so check the manufacturers site. Avoid this by only purchasing from trusted retailers.

On the other hand, it may be down to the juice you are using. Sub ohm (Low Resistance) coils work best with High VG E-liquid. Where as low resistance or tight draw coils work best with either 50/50 or High PG E-liquid.

If you use the wrong type of juice, it can either leak if it’s high PG as it is a thinner substance, or if it’s thick it will not soak into the cotton properly and therefore the coil will burn faster.

Otherwise, using very sweet flavoured juices that are high in glucose tend to result in a smaller life span as glucose sticks to your coil, affects absorption and therefore leads to burning.

Finally, you may be using your device on a wattage that is too high for the coil, see the manufacturers recommended wattage and change accordingly.
