Introduction

Vape mods and coils are essential components of the vaping experience. Understanding their differences, how to choose the right ones, and how to maintain them properly can greatly enhance your vaping experience. This guide will break down everything you need to know about vape mods and coils.

What Are Vape Mods & Coils?

Vape Mods

• Description: High-powered, customizable devices designed for experienced vapers.

• Types:

  • Box Mods: Adjustable wattage and temperature, built-in safety features.

  • Pod Mods: Compact devices designed for nicotine salts or lower-wattage vaping.

  • Mechanical Mods: Unregulated devices delivering direct power from battery to atomizer (For advanced users only).

Vape Coils

• Description: Heating elements that vaporize e-liquid when powered by the mod.

• Types:

  • Pre-built Coils: Ready-made and replaceable, most common option.

  • Rebuildable Coils: DIY coils for advanced users seeking custom builds.

• Resistance Levels:

  • Sub-Ohm (Below 1.0 ohm): Produces larger clouds, best for direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping.

  • Above-Ohm (Above 1.0 ohm): Better for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping, mimicking cigarette draw.

How to Choose the Right Mod and Coil

1. Understanding Your Vaping Style

• Direct-to-Lung (DTL): Requires low-resistance coils (sub-ohm) and high-wattage mods.

• Mouth-to-Lung (MTL): Works best with high-resistance coils (above-ohm) and lower-wattage devices.

2. Device Type Compatibility

• Make sure your mod is compatible with the coil type you intend to use.

• Check product specifications or ask us at 592 Smoke Shop for assistance.

3. Power Settings

• Advanced mods allow you to adjust wattage and temperature, providing more control over your vaping experience.

4. Battery Life

• Mechanical mods require extensive knowledge of battery safety.

• Regulated mods come with built-in safety features and long battery life.

How to Replace Vape Coils

Pre-Built Coils

1. Remove the Tank: Detach it from the mod.

2. Unscrew the Old Coil: Dispose of properly.

3. Prime the New Coil: Add a few drops of e-liquid to the wicking material.

4. Install the New Coil: Screw it into place.

5. Reassemble the Tank: Fill with e-liquid and allow it to saturate for 5-10 minutes before use.

Rebuildable Coils (RBA/RDA/RTA)

1. Remove Old Coil: Unscrew or unclamp from the build deck.

2. Install New Coil: Place the new coil and secure with screws or clamps.

3. Dry Burn the Coil: Briefly fire the coil without cotton to burn off residue.

4. Add Cotton Wick: Insert, trim, and position the cotton wick properly.

5. Saturate with E-Liquid: Allow proper soaking before use.

Maintenance Tips for Vape Mods & Coils

• Clean Regularly: Rinse tanks and rebuildable coils weekly.

• Replace Coils Promptly: Change pre-built coils every 1-2 weeks for optimal performance.

• Check Battery Health: Monitor battery safety when using mechanical mods.

• Store Devices Properly: Avoid heat and moisture exposure.

• Use Compatible Parts: Mismatched components can damage your device.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Using High-Wattage Coils at Low Power: Results in poor vapor production and burnt taste.

• Overusing Coils: Leads to weak flavor and reduced performance.

• Incorrect Coil Resistance: Not all coils are compatible with every device.
