"Joye eGo ONE V2 Mega tank - Stainless", yes, the tank is SS, but the coil is still a genuine piece of a tin can :(

I take it you prefer the KFM, for the win-Win? ;)

I will definitely agree with DPL. These coils have changed my mind kompletely about pop ins. They ARE by far the best I've used. Konsistent, sweet vapes, and MINIMUS upkeep!! There's nothing shabby about the Aspire Nauti and BVCs, both of which I occasionally do use, but the CLR coils are superb for my taste.

We've both had them (the Egg Rolls) in play since last late summer, and they just don't disappoint. Ever.



Weekly rewicks? :shock::) Mine have been goin a month now and still look white between the coil wraps. :ohmy:

I rewick by taste and measure time a bit differently. I judge my usage by fills, so I don't normally change out the wicks on any schedule at all. Mine are averaging about a dozen fills (4ml) between new wicks. Happy, me!!

Yup, I jus wait fer the wicks ta talk to me. They ain't said nuthin since I first stuffed rayon in there (properly) and it's been at least a month. Five 4 ml tanks in rotation, 2 tanks daily very light on Flavors.

My coils are nothing short of amazing. Running for almost nine months, weekly re-wicks and beat into the ground. Yet they keep ringing up at 1.05 (ish), and vaping like a dream.

They're far-and-away the best blister-pack coils I've ever used, and there's not even a close second.

Raising hand saying "i second that" to DPL recent post.

Vape many things in almost 7 years and these clrs are the best for wife and i personally.
Would not have bought lifetime supply of them otherwise as we do not intend to use any other type of coil head.

Edit : But if one finds something else they like personally and it keeps them of the stinkies then thats what really matters Imho .

Edit Again: Vaping as i type and saying to myself dang i like this pico-s.

Yep. They're so easy to re-wick that I started doing that because each time I changed a wick, even though I felt they were fine, my taste buds popped, "Wow!".

So, easy is as easy does (or something like that). ;)

DIY measureing 475ml batch for Mrs and 475ml for me just became easier instead of many times refilling 25ml cylinder shown on left when making the e-liquid.
Should have bought one long time ago.
This 250 borosilicate glass cylinder is so much easier and quicker to make e-liquid it came in mail earlier today and made a batch for the Mrs in no time er should i say she did it for the very first time as i stayed to the side watching her.
Then she said "does this mean i have to make my own now all the time ?"
Replied no be glad to do it as always but just in case something happens you know how to.

It is but with the pg alone at over 360ml in formula i had to fill the little 25ml cylinder countless times .
Used to have a paper and pen marking each time i filled that small cylinder so i did not lose count.
Sure happy now its just fill once and then partially thats what took the longest time with the small one.
Use small cylinder for the concentrated menthol flavoring as its only 9.5 ml @ 2%

I'm all for taking the easier routes. Productivity counts. :)

Have you ever tried mixing by weight? I have a whole bunch of glassware like that but i don't use it anymore since I started mixing directly into the bottle.

I use squeezey condiment bottles for pg/vg/nic and dropper bottles for flavors and just squeeze the stuff right in.

Are you talking about the CL coils that come with the tank? If yes, I agree that they're carp (sp).

The CLR coils most (probably all) of us use are a different story. Great flavor, lasts a long time and easy to re-wick and rebuild. I've used the same 2 rebuilt coils for months now - re-wicking maybe every week or two (just because, not because I had to).

"Tin can"? Just be careful to catch the threads correctly when you screw the cap back on and check that the cap is still tight whenever you refill the tank and a CLR coil head will last a long, long time - especially in TC mode. To me, the weakest point of the CLR coil head - as it is with virtually all "drop in" rebuildable coil heads - is the silicone grommet that holds the coil in place.

Yes, I still think I get better flavor from my Kayfun clones, but the CLRs are so easy to rebuild and use in TC mode that even my Kayfun clones have been sitting on atomizer stands for the last few weeks. My Kayfun clones can be finicky in TC mode.

Tip: If you try the CLRs, immediately remove the stock cotton wick and replace with your wick of choice. The stock wick is in way too tight, imo.

The CLRs?
I have twenty of them, same metal as the CLs.
