Another way to speed up both the ramp-up and the cooldown is to pick thin Nichrome80 instead of thin Kanthal/SS for the outer wrap. It will ramp up even faster if you do the same for the core wire. Downside is the durability of the coil will suffer.

Are nickel coils bad for vaping?
Nickel coils are known for their rapid ramp-up speed, but they consist a softer metal which can be annoying to work with sometimes, when you’re building. Nickel coils shouldn’t be dry burnt, as this can oxidize the metal and ruin your coils. In addition, nickel can sometimes cause a negative reaction in vapers who are allergic to the metal.
Why does my vape vapour keep coming back into the coil?
As e-liquid is vaporized, the space above the coil becomes “saturated” with vapour, and the only way more can be created is if some condenses back into e-liquid. This effectively prevents new vapour from being created if your airflow is completely closed off (or close to it).
Why are my coils so much hotter than my 26W?
Well your coils are the same way. 22 is alot thicker than 26 so there's alot more metal to heat up so you either need to adjust your build or adjust your wattage. Try a parallel build or just a basic build.
How can i Improve my vapour production?
However, many posts on improving vapour production focus on rebuilding, and not all vapers are interested in wrapping their own Clapton coils or fretting about the surface area of their builds. Modern sub ohm tanks are about as far as more casual vapers are interested in going.
What is ramp-up time in vape?
Ramp-up time is the time your coil takes to reach the temp needed for vaporizing e-juice. Ramp time is generally more noticeable with exotic multi-strand wire coils like Claptons, but, as wire size increases, ramp time can also become more apparent with simple single wire coils.
How do I get the most out of my coil?
Your best bet is to keep your tank topped up and your wick properly saturated. Also, don't place too much strain on your coil. Take a break in between hits to allow enough e-juice to reach your wick and coil. Remember, the more you vape, the quicker you'll go through coils.
How long to let a coil soak before vaping?
around 5-10 minutesIt's always recommended to leave your coil to prime for as long as possible - anywhere between 5-30 minutes. The longer you leave it the better, but most coils should be ready to vape after around 5-10 minutes.

Does more airflow use more juice?
Higher airflow can decrease the amount of juice needed, because it remains on the coils. When using lower airflow, you'll gain more flavor from your vape. When less air encounters the coils, it forces the vapor out quicker as well as becomes warmer.
Does higher Vg burn coils faster?
See PG vs VG for more information This means that juices with a high VG content (70 % or higher) can cause problems with wicking and may ruin your coils. So if you're regularly running into issues with dry puffs and burnt coils, it could be the vape juice you're using.
How do you break in a new coil?
Here is how to make coils last longer by breaking them in gradually:When you start vaping, set the wattage to the lowest recommended setting.Take a few short vapes to slowly start to break in the coil.Increase the power by 5 watts.Take three normal vapes and increase power by 5 watts.More items...•
Why am I burning through coils so fast?
Sub-ohm coils heat up much quicker than those with a higher resistance. If your e-liquid has a thinner consistency then the atomizer head can vaporize it too quickly, causing premature burning.
Why is my vape burning my throat with new coil?
Some vapers are quick to blame it on a faulty coil, but new coils usually get burnt because they haven't been primed before use. By priming your coil, we basically mean preparing it and getting the wick nice and saturated with e-juice.
How do I fix low resistance vape?
Low Resistance Dry burning is one way to get around this problem because it can raise the coil's resistance. Another thing to do is add wraps to the coil, which will increase the resistance high enough so that the mod fires. If using a factory coil, either a new coil or vape is needed.
How many watts do I need for a .23 ohm coil?
Wattage range 20-45W.
How do you tell if a coil is burnt?
Signs it's time to change your vape coilA burning taste. Vaping a dead coil will eventually result in an acrid, burning taste. ... Gurgling sounds. Vapes shouldn't gurgle. ... Weak or “off” e-Juice flavor. This often precedes a burnt taste. ... Low vapor production. The vapor produced by your coil will gradually lessen with time.

To the point - I vape for like 5 or 6 years by now, but today I got myself a first mechanical mod. Before I bought it, I read a lof about Ohm's law, battery safety etc, etc but something suprised me. My coils are ramping as slow as turtle walks. On regulated device I was putting like 40W on this build and everything was ok.

Simple single wire or 2 strands thinner gauge twisted will work very well.

After trying all sorts of wire types, builds etc... my favorite is still 2 strands twisted kanthal, gauge is a personal preference you'll have to fiddle with to figure out what yours is.

How to increase wattage of vape coil?
Start on the maximum airflow setting and a low wattage, towards the bottom end of the range suggested on your coil. Take a few drags on the device. If the vape is not too hot and you don’t get dry puffs, increase the wattage (by 3 to 5 W) and repeat steps 2 and 3.
Why is airflow important in vaping?
The airflow plays an important role in the tightness of the draw. Less air will give more resistance (and feel more like puffing a cigarette), more air will give an airier vape. Again, vapers’ preferences for airflow vary, so you should experiment a little to find what you like.
How does airflow affect vapour?
The airflow over your coil cools down the vapour, and this makes it condense into liquid droplets. So the more airflow you have, the more condensation there is and the more visible “vapour” (i.e. aerosol) you produce. The extra airflow also “dilutes” the vapour with more air, which has the effect of puffing it out.
What is the best vape tank for clouds?
What’s the best type of vape tank for cloud vaping? While smaller vape tanks like the Innokin Zenith D22 are great for everyday, and more discreet use, to get really big clouds, you’re going to need a low sub ohm tank with a low resistance coil. One of my favourite tanks for clouds is the Falcon II from HorizonTech.
Why is resistance important in e-cigarettes?
The lower the resistance, the easier it is to achieve high temperatures. Furthermore, a lower resistance coil will reach the higher temperatures required to produce more vapour more quickly.
When you're not sucking hard enough, do you need to inhale?
Inhaling Technique – When you’re not sucking hard enough. Yes, I just used that title! To get lots of vapour, you need enough airflow to cool the coil and help your cloud condense. Even when the airflow setting on your tank is at maximum, it’s no good if you’re not inhaling enough to make use of it.
What is mesh coil?
Mesh coils are basically strips of metal with holes punched throughout them, a bit more like a cheese grater than what you might picture when you think of mesh. This gives a lot of surface area to vaporize your juice, while the thinness of the material means the resistance is still very low and it heats up quickly.
What coils are used in power mode?
Pretty much all coils need to use with this mode, you can use Kanthal, stainless steel (SS), and nichrome ( nickel -chrome) coils. most of readily made coils are made out of Kanthal Wire, which is why power mode tends to be oh-so-popular among users of different expertise levels.
Can you set a temperature control?
You can set personalized power or temperature control settings for your convenience. On select devices, if you have a few different power or temperature settings that you normally use, you can set these as memory settings to you can easily scroll through them to change from one setting to another.
Vape coil types
There are two types of vape coil at the very top of the food chain. These are pre built coils and rebuildable coils.
How to clean your vape coils
This is probably your next question. How do you keep a coil clean? Over time, particularly when you use high VG juices, coils can become ‘gunky’. Keeping your coil ship shape and shiny can get you a couple more days out of it, saving you money in the long run.
