The atomizer is at the heart of the e-cigarette; choosing the right hardware will help ensure your setup is performing well with purer taste and plenty of vapour.
Sub-ohm vaping offers even more customisation and control over your e-cig, but takes more maintenance too - replacing your coils and choosing the right atomizer will ensure your e-cig is safe and satisfying to use every single time.
We carry a spare and replacement atomizers and coils to help you maintain your setup and get the best performance out of your Vapouriz box mod. Shop online and find a great range of atomizers and coils for the Vapouriz range.
What are Vape Coils?
Coils are the essential component in any vape device that transform e-liquid into vapour. Similar to a kettle's heating element, they receive electrical current from the battery and heat up, vaporising the e-liquid held in the surrounding cotton or wicking material. Also called atomiser heads, coils come in various configurations and materials including mesh, kanthal, stainless steel, and ceramic—each offering distinct flavour characteristics and vapour production. The coil's design significantly impacts your vaping experience, determining flavour quality, vapour density, and battery efficiency. Vapouriz stocks quality replacement coils from leading manufacturers including Aspire, SMOK, GeekVape, and Vaporesso, ensuring compatibility with most popular tank and pod systems.
What are Coil Resistances and Ohms?
Coil resistance, measured in ohms, indicates how much electrical resistance a coil provides and directly impacts your vaping experience. Higher resistance coils (above 1.0ohm) operate at lower wattages, producing moderate vapour and preserving battery life—ideal for mouth-to-lung vaping and nicotine satisfaction. Lower resistance or "sub-ohm" coils (below 1.0ohm) draw more power, generating denser vapour and intensified flavour for direct-lung vaping. This measurement helps you determine compatibility with different devices and e-liquid types. Generally, higher resistance coils work best with high-PG and nicotine salt e-liquids, while sub-ohm coils excel with High-VG formulations. Understanding resistance helps you tailor your vaping experience to your preferences.
What are MTL, RDL and DTL Vaping styles?
Vaping styles are primarily categorised as MTL (Mouth-to-Lung) or DTL (Direct-to-Lung), with RDL (Restricted Direct-to-Lung) offering a middle ground. MTL vaping mimics traditional smoking—vapour is drawn into the mouth before inhaling to the lungs. This style uses higher resistance coils (1.0-3.0ohm) and works well with high-PG, 50/50, or nicotine salt e-liquids. DTL vaping involves inhaling vapour directly into the lungs, typically using sub-ohm coils and producing substantial vapour clouds. DTL vaping pairs well with High-VG e-liquids and higher-powered devices. RDL offers a compromise with a slightly restricted draw using mid-range resistance coils (0.4-0.8ohm), suitable for various e-liquid types.
When to Change a Coil
Coils have varying lifespans depending on usage factors. Higher resistance coils typically last 1-4 weeks, while sub-ohm coils generally need replacement after 1-2 weeks of regular use. Several indicators signal when replacement is necessary: diminished flavour intensity, burnt taste (even at appropriate power settings), reduced vapour production, or gurgling sounds from your device. E-liquid type also affects longevity—sweeter and darker e-liquids contain more sugars that caramelise on coils, shortening their effective life. Appropriate priming when installing new coils and maintaining suitable power settings can significantly extend coil lifespan. Regular maintenance ensures consistent flavour quality and prevents potential device issues.
