Electronic cigarette users often find coil replacement challenging, whether they use pre-built coils or RBAs. Furthermore, users tend to avoid this process as it detracts from the enjoyment of e-cigarettes. However, depending on usage intensity, coil replacement is mandatory weekly or every ten days. A clean and new coil will significantly enhance the flavor experienced from an electronic cigarette. Yet, many wonder when coil replacement should be done and what signals necessitate it.
E-liquid Taste
Electronic cigarette models sometimes emit a burning smell, but their taste remains unchanged. However, if there is a noticeable change in the smell and taste of the e-liquid, the atomizer coil should be replaced. In short, when the flavor of the electronic cigarette e-liquid changes, the RBA coil or pre-built coil must be replaced. The user should immediately change the coil when they don't like the e-liquid's taste or realize something is wrong with it.
Burnt Smell
One of the situations requiring coil replacement in electronic cigarette models is a burnt smell. If the user smells a burnt odor when inhaling and exhaling vapor, they should immediately replace the pre-built coil. Additionally, those using RBA coils, even if their wires are fine, must replace the cotton they've wicked. This allows the user to continue using the old wires for a while longer. Those attempting to change the cotton on an RBA coil should try heating the wires without cotton to clean any accumulated residue. After the user blows once or twice, e-liquid residue and other elements on the wires will disappear on their own. However, it is also essential for the user to maintain the wires over time.
E-liquid Color
"How to change a coil", along with "when should a coil be changed," are questions that confuse electronic cigarette users. The change in the color of electronic cigarette e-liquid is another factor necessitating coil replacement. When the cotton inside the atomizer coil burns and turns black, ash seeps into the e-liquid itself. Therefore, the e-liquid color becomes slightly darker. For this reason, the e-cigarette user should pay as much attention as possible to the color of their e-cigarette e-liquid's flavor.
