The heart of your vaping device. These heating elements known as coils are there to turn your e-liquid into vapour. Generally with a manufactured coil we find a heating element encased in cotton. The cotton holds the liquid enabling it to be vaporised once you apply power to the coil from your battery.
A pod is the replacement component to a pod kit. Replacement pods often contain a pre-fitted coil just like you would find in a regular device. This type are designed to be refilled a few times then disposed of as the coil wears out. Other manufacturers provide pods with coils inside that you can change, just like any other device.
Coils and pods will need replacing periodically; the length of time between changes depends on a number of factors. The amount of device use, power settings, chosen e-liquid, and other variables, all affect the lifespan. Generally you would want to replace your coil or pod as and when you encounter a burnt or poor taste from your atomiser.
It's really important to make sure your coil or pod is primed properly before you first fire the device. To achieve this, you can follow these simple instructions:
If you encounter 'spitting' from the device and a general gurgling sound when firing it, then the likelihood is your coil has become flooded. This can happen when the device is sat for any period of time or if the coil still has liquid inside from the priming process.
If this occurs, simply remove the mouthpiece if it can be, then flick the device down towards the floor (preferably outside!). This action will allow the excess liquid to vacate the coil and when you next fire the device that gurgling sound should have gone.
