Coils

[Kmarton583]

I have a nautilus mini tank and I'm curious if I can clean them if they gunk up. New to this, also the little coils, bvc and BDC I believe lol! I have both that I use with my two tanks. How do you know when it's time to replace or clean. How do you clean them if you can. Thanks guys!

These coils are pretty much disposable. Cleaning them would be way more trouble than its worth (in my opinion).

Fairly certain other people actually go as far as rebuilding their Aspire coils, but really.. That seems a bit excessive to me. Replacements are cheap, and I can't imagine burning through more than 1 per week.

They can and should be cleaned to maximize ther life. I rotate coils every two or three days or every 4or 5 tanks full on my Nautilus. Soak them overnight in cheap vodka or grain alchohol, rinse and air dry. Once dry either put some juice or PG/VG in them to prevent oxidation. I get a month or so out of each coil so far vaping on an MVP 2 at max wattage most of the time.

I too rotate coils every 2 or 3 days. I can tell when they are getting dirty by loss of flavor and the draw gets tighter.
I just rinse them under hot water letting it run through the coil then set them out to dry for a day. I will then dry burn them to get rid of any stuck on gunk and then rinse again. Set out to dry for a day and they are ready to use just like a new one. I have been rotating 3 coils for 6 weeks now and they still work great.
