I like my cleito tank but the coils do seem to be hit and miss. I believe they had a bad batch that were wound too tight. Unfortunately, I don't know of any way to check which batches were affected. My original .4 coil went like 3 months before I needed to change it out. I bought some new coils and they aren't as good as the first - I have spitback and they last at most a week. Same juice, same power, same device. I'm soaking the used coils in some alcohol for a few days to see if I can reuse them.

Once they are burnt, it is pretty much too late because you can't "unburn" cotton. However, if you have an otherwise good coil that is only junked up and not producing much flavor or vapor, you can try to salvage them like they did in the old cartomizer days - flush them with water for a few minutes, soak them in iso alcohol, or steam them clean. I use a q-tip to clean the inside of the coils then let them air dry for a day or so.

It is hit or miss. Some work well, but others don't improve. Just depends how much work you want to do for a 2 dollar coil. :)
