Coils, Help!!!

[Melissa Slusser]

My coils are burning out very fast, at first I realized it about once a day one would burn out, but I guess I didnt notice it as much. I JUST changed my coil 10 min ago (if that) it has already burnt out. Literally... a brand new coil, not even 10 min, and its burnt out.... Whats going on?? Is my pen just garbage now, or am I doing something wrong?

I changed coil, i made sure everything was clean, clean, dry tank, new juice etc the whole 9 yards when I JUST changed it... So frustrating. I havent had an analog in a few days now, I dont want to go back to them tonight because of this!!!!

What coils?
What wattage?
What juice?
What mod?

Need more info before we can help

When installing a new coil, make sure to juice them up, or let them sit in a full tank of juice for 19 minutes. This insures juice is on the coil before you go to use it.

My last few rebuild attempts for my clr coils, I forgot to prime the wick and completely burnt the wicking on my first inhail.

It is essential to keep the wicks wet.

What VaporDaze said. Also, dark sweet juices will kill a coil faster. I know 'cause been there' done that. Do hang in there because folks here will help you straighten the problem out. Vaping does take some perseverance. You can do it.

Yup, priming a coil is a must! I normally put 10 drops on the coil then put it in the tank, fill it up and let sit for about 15 mins.

This is how most end up taking the next step into coil building and different equipment. Stock coils fail at a high rate. Good advice above my post though. Prime your coils and ramp up the power. Dont slam a new coil with full power....ease into it.

Start low and slow after priming your coil correctly. Let the tank sit for at least 10 seconds between draws so the wick can draw more juice. More info is needed, also.

Wet the cotton really well, wait a few seconds fill the tank close the airholes and without firing the mod suck really hard on the driptip. This sucks even more juice into the coil chamber don't worry if it floods slightly inside, just vape away it'll fix itself, better to have a slightly flooded coil that one that's dry and gives you a burnt taste and ruins a coil head or rebuild.

You did not post what tank you were using, whether the wick was burning or the coil was burning through.

If you are using premade coils and you are burning the cotton there are possibly two problems.

1. You got some bad coils
2. You did not allow the wick to become fully saturated.


Many people start with silica wicks then move to another tank with cotton wicking for better flavor and forget to saturate the coils with juice.

Thank you for all the replies, I went out and got a new one!

Can you be any more vague with the problem?
