It is recommended to replace your e-cigarette coils when you notice certain signs indicating that they are worn out or in poor condition.
Here are the main indicators:
- Burnt taste: If you notice a burnt taste, it means that the cotton in the coil is probably dry, which can happen when the coil is worn out or there is insufficient e-liquid. This unpleasant taste is a clear sign that it is time to change the coil.
- Loss of flavour: If the flavour of your e-liquid becomes less intense, this is also a sign that the coil is starting to deteriorate. This may be due to a build-up of residue or wear on the coil.
- Leaks or poor performance: If you notice e-liquid leaks, poor vapour production or difficulty drawing properly, this may be due to a worn or damaged coil.
- Less dense vapour: If you no longer produce the same amount of vapour, even after adjusting your settings (power, airflow), this may also mean that the coil has reached the end of its life.
- Frequency of use: How often you use your e-cigarette also plays an important role. Generally, it is advisable to change the coil every 1 to 2 weeks, but this may vary depending on use and the type of e-liquid used.
In summary, you should change the coil in your e-cigarette when you notice a loss of flavour, a burnt taste, reduced vapour production or leaking. As a general rule, check and change the coil every 1 to 2 weeks depending on your usage.
How do you change your e-cigarette coil?
Replacing the coil is a simple process. Here are the steps to follow:
- Unscrew the clearomiser base: To access the coil, unscrew the base of the clearomiser. This will allow you to remove the metal part containing the coil.
- Remove the old coil: Once the base has been unscrewed, remove the old coil by unscrewing or unclipping it, depending on your e-cig model.
- Install the new coil: Insert the new coil in the designated place in the clearomiser. Make sure it is properly aligned and correctly screwed or clipped into place.
- Prime the new coil: Before using it, it is recommended to prime the coil by saturating it with e-liquid. To do this, fill the e-liquid tank, close the tank and airflow inlets, then take several draws without pressing the fire button. This will draw e-liquid through the wicks.
- Reassemble the clearomiser: After priming the coil, screw the clearomiser base back on correctly.
💡 Please note that the process may vary slightly depending on your e-cigarette model. Refer to the user manual for specific instructions.
