why wet the coils of a vape

by Dr. Anastasia Cartwright PhD Published 2 years ago Updated 1 year ago

Before you install a new coil, prime the wick by using a bottle of e-liquid to wet the wick from all sides. By wetting the wick before you install it, you’ll make the wick more receptive to e-liquid after you fill the tank. Install the coil and fill the tank as you normally do.

As the wicks lose their ability to soak up e-juice, the liquid that does get pulled in isn't absorbed properly and can flood the atomizer head. The same effect happens when your wick has gotten gunked up from using coil-killing e-juices (usually dark-colored juices and dessert flavors).

Why does my vape coil flood when vaping?

If you set your power too low, not much juice will vaporize but more will be pulled into the chamber when you inhale, and so the coil will flood. Turn up the power setting on your mod.

How do vape coils work?

It is the coil that takes the power from your vape battery and turns it into heat, which is then used to turn e-liquid into vapour. Inside a standard coil model, you will find a length of coiled wire wrapped around an absorbent wick. The wire creates heat, while the wick absorbs the e-liquid held in your vape tank.

What happens if you don’t have Wick in vape coils?

If there isn’t enough wick in your coils, too much juice can get into the chamber and cause leaking, gurgling and spitting when you try to vape. If you had too much wick, you might get some dry hits, but too little can lead to leaking.

Why does my vape coil taste burnt?

The most common reason why a new coil taste burnt is because it was not primed for enough time. Remember to prime the coil for at least 10 minutes and avoid high power vaping for the first puff. After it is primed and ready, set up your device at a low wattage range. This will help avoid dry hits and burnt cotton taste.

  • DL/”direct-to-lung” coil
    DL or “direct-to-lung” coils are designed to accommodate high power, large airflow and massive vapour production. These days, most DL coils use strips of mesh instead of traditional round wire. You can identify a coil head that’s intended for DL vaping by looking at the diameter of the coil in…
