Hey, I find my atomisers never last more than a week or two. I'm not talking about disposable ones, I've tried a whole range of very expensive ones.
All atomizers except for RBAs are disposable. And, even with RBAs the coils themselves are still disposable. It's like a light bulb. The filament will eventually burn out and the bulb need to be replaced.

I feel this is too often to be buying new ecigs, and it's a nuisance, every time one dies, I have to switch back to cigarettes until my next one arrives.
Replacing an atomizer or atomizer head is not the same as replacing an e-cig. Replacing an atomizer is certainly cheaper than buying cigarettes. So, why would the expense of buying a new atomizer send you back to buying cigarettes? If they're lasting you a week or two, what are you spending? Maybe $3 a week?

vaping will never be as effortless as smoking. But, it can come reasonably close enough if you find what works best for you.

What atomizers have you used? Each kind of atomizer has its own issues and fixes.

Well, here's the thing with rebuild-able coils : they last a long long time, months if you're gentle with them ..you see, how it works is, you build a thickish gauge microcoil, then wick it ( i prefer cotton ) ...once it gets gunky, or blackened, you simply pull out the wicking material, dry burn the coil using the battery, wash under a tap, dry burn again, and tada, good as new, all the gunk has been burned away, just the clean coil metal left...then you rewick it, just strand through your new cotton or silica ... thicker gauge coils are very hard to destroy, unless you get too rough with them ...

As for my expromizer, i bought it locally here in Greece from a vape shop, but you can also order it online from your area, or failing that, direct from the Exvape website ( the manufacturer )

Oh, and i should add, most all rebuildable attys use microcoils, so you don't specifically need an expromizer, any rebuild-able atomizer works on the same principle, EG : kayfuns, taifuns, expromizer, orchids etc etc, as well as drippers ....

recoiling is something you should learn in the long run, will save you heaps, and your own builds will eventually be better then anything the factory heads have to offer...i started off by rebuilding my vivi nova heads, and that was fiddly and tricky , in comparison to rebuilding on an RTA tank.

Has she tried any bottom changeable coil clearomizers? They are so much better than those top-coil CE4s...

Just a suggestion. She might enjoy a Kanger T3s or en eVod.

Dont I know it - :D I got her some ce5 with bvc's and she's had a go but she thinks the first thing she tries is the best and change is not always for the better but Im getting her round to it. She is currently using the ce5 though.

Look, if she's happy and is using them and not smoking, that's all that counts! :)
