Dry burning coils

[LynnNC]

Why do you have to dry burn the coils and when do you dry burn? Also, I've seen a video to dry burn a bottom coil but can you dry burn a top cool? Thanks!

You dry burn a coil to get rid of the gunk that builds up over time. You do this when the performance of the coil starts to diminish. However, you don't have to do this if you don't want to. You can just throw the old coil away and install a new coil.

What type of clearomizer are you using?

I think this video may be good for the T3S coils. Look at it to see if the coils are similar.

I rarely dry burn my coils and I use a mini kanger protank 2. Usually, I just give them a good rinse under really really hot water and it seems to work really well.

for those that rebuild, dry burning and re-wicking is the best way to maintain quality of vape. Coils themselves will last months, but need to cleaned occasionally and re-wicked, for optimal performance.

Changeable atty's, are for those that don't know how to build, or choose not to. Dry burning is done without the wick in place, and cleans the gunk buildup on the coils, then re-wick.

I clean and dry burn my coils every 3 days. I can get coils to last from 2-4 weeks. Yeah they are real cheap to buy. But why throw it out after a week of not cleaning and replacing them when a simple clean does the job.

Thanks!! I really need to check out you tube more often....lots of great stuff there. One video told me that when I purchased the ViVi nova, it should have came in a box with 2 extra heads of different ohms. Mine came in a clear plastic package! Lol now I'm wondering if it's genuine.
