1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

How often do you make/change your coils?

    As long as I'm not using juice which clogs up your wicks and coils too much I can go around a month without changing my coil,,,

    I've just started mixing my own juice which is just PG, VG. Nic base and one fruit flavour, the juice is near on clear and it is great for my coils and wicks...loving it....

    I re-wick when the vape 'changes', usually every 2-3 days. Coils - I change every couple of months.

    Wicks I change every three to four tank fulls in RTAs, drippers when I feel the flavour tail off. As for coils can be many months, just clean and rewick but I always have at least 15 mods on the go at any one time, so none of them get used constantly at any time of day. Even going out I have around five in my vape (camera) bag.

    I rewick when the wicks become oversaturated and just don't conduct juice any more. I recoil when I either get bored or the wire turns black. I probably recoil too much. I go through a lot of wire

    That was over a 9 month period from 8 Aug 16 to 10 May 17 (I keep a spreadsheet). Even I was surprised that it lasted that long. Most everything else lasts ~30ml or so... :)

    I think the maximum I had Mexican Hat Dance in my tank for one coil was 80ml. I finished my last bottle a couple of weeks ago and is high on my priority list for my next order.
