Scroll to the bottom of the link it will show you all the coils for the Aspire Triton 2 tank. They all fit the Melo.

Sigh, my bad, I was confusing my tanks. I'm glad things are working out better on lower wattage for you. I've never found super high wattage to do much for me other than burn my coils faster, run my batteries down faster, and I don't enjoy the vape. So, if you have found your sweet spot, that may be all you need, but there is certainly nothing wrong with switching coil types either, you may find one you like better.
Best of luck,
Anna

Welcome to ECF. My vote for rba. But 2 or 3 and keep them coiled and wicked. Better quality vape IMO.
Thanks, i'll keep this handy in case i want to switch it up a bit. I'm going to try the Eleaf ECL coils first though. I think the bigger juice holes might just be what i need to fix the burning problem.Off topic; So Anna you finally used one!
Then bigger juice channels shouldn't matter. Your coil should wick fine so long as you are not firing your coil at too high a wattage.
But i guess bigger juice holes wíll allow me to use a higher wattage for longer, i think? Versus the smaller holes.
I have a Kayfun 5 and its a fine vape, I also have a Kabuki tank with drop in coils and it's fairly well the same... both are high end. I also bought a 10 dollar nectar rta (genesis style) from fasttech and it's as good (if not better) as either of the high end tanks.. (and easier to build than the Kayfun).. I have a serpent mini and love the vape on that too.. I've tried my son's wismec reaux which takes drop in coils, and it's got as good a flavor as either the Kayfun or the Kabuki or the nectar.. and it's 30.00..
It's the design of the tank and the build of the coil that matters.. not the price. You can get good items inexpensively.

No.. if your wicking material is wicking properly, which it should with your juice, then it's wattage which matters.. and wattage only. You can try mixing up a 60vg / 40 (or 50/50) mix and see if it wicks better, but it should be the same if not similar. I'd say your vaping that coil at too high a wattage.
If you want the higher wattage, then if I were you I'd go with a tank and coil set up that can handle it.

Ah, alright. Thanks. Too high of a wattage was definately the problem with these EC coils. Vaping at 40 watts tastes and feels a lot differend (and better) than at 50 watts. The coils i'm looking at right now do advice a range of 60-80 watts @ .3ohms. The coil i have now is also .3ohms but it advices a range of 50-80 watts. So what makes it that the wattage range is different?
Thanks to all for the patience and good answers, by the way. I thought i knew a lot about vaping, untill i got this ''advanced'' device. The questions just keep springing up 
The build of the coil and the way the coil is wicked can make a difference in how you can vape it, (at what wattage etc).
Personally, I only use one tank with drop in coils, the other I know intimately is the one my son uses. My husband uses the same one I do, so I don't know your particular coils. I have tried several kinds, so I know about some but not all.. therefore I can't say much about how yours are made and how they work best.
But, there are only a handful of components involved so it's easy to trouble shoot. Someday, if you ever decide to take the leap into building, the experience of building will help teach you more about how atomizers work, and help you learn how to do your own troubleshooting.
It's just time, and experience. You will get there! No worries.
I love the 0.3 coils in the Melo. The ranges imprinted on the sides of coils are never accurate. I think they do this so you will need to keep buying more and more as they burn out quicker.
The size of the holes does not really make much difference in the way it works. Look at eleaf's ECR coils. These are the ones you can replace the coils and wicking yourself. Super easy to do and since they are reusable seem to last a lot longer than factory coils. Once you look at a you tube video on how to rebuild these, you will wonder why you spent so much on the factory coils. jmho
Welcome and glad you joined.
Might want to consider RDA's. The build deck is normally larger than the tank build decks, and promote ease of build learning. If you can bend a paper clip, you can build a coil.

I'd agree about the size of the holes for the most part, if you aren't changing up VG/PG percentage or anything. If you aren't having wicking problems or dry hits, it's not THAT likely to be juic eflow causing the swift burnout, more likely wattage issues.
I don't think I've vape a coil at "recommended" wattages yet this time around, vaping. I seem to be a wimp, but I also try to maximize my juice/equipment/coils and I don't like blowing huge clouds.
That said, everyone's different, and has different vaping styles, it COULD be that you switch a coil, some magic happens, and you can vape at a higher wattage, though I'm not saying you HAVE to, in fact with temp control data and whatnot coming out, I'm glad I can keep my non-tc coils running as cool as possible, yet still without an anemic vape. What I consider anemic may differ considerably from yours, though. So it's worth experimenting.
Also, yes, I have an RTA tank setup, largely thanks to this forum and the husband, (there is a thread on there about it, if you want so see someone who *really* doesn't know what she's doing achieve SUCCESS, rather similarly to someone paying a grad student to write their English paper, LOL, though this was all free-- gotta love my husband and this forum) but honestly, I love premade coils too, and I would NEVER try (well, at this point) taking a RTA/RTD out of the house, not yet. I'd be terrified it would start acting up and out of the house is where I *need* things to go smoothly, so I imagine that there will always be a place in my heart for the Nautilus 2 and it will operate (though I just ordered a Titanium Kayfun, so who knows???) but, that tank still takes Nautilus coils, so eh, I'm a fan of coiling, but I also am a fan of "Anna Breakproof" products as well....

I disagree on size and number of holes in the coil and the way the coil wicks and performs. My experience is that the greater the number of ample-sized holes, the better the wicking capability and the better you can vape at a higher wattage.
Comparison case in point:
Aspire Atlantis coils vs Smok TFV8 Beast coils. The Atlantis coils have four very small holes while the Beast coils have four holes that are 2x plus the size. As a result, the Beasts wick much better and I am able to drive them at higher wattage with much less chance of dry hitting.
Tank design influences this, too. In a lot of tanks that use Atlantis coils, the coil gets screwed into a chimney that partially or completely covers the holes (Sega tank). I don't know of a tank that doesn't fully expose the Beast coils' holes to the liquid without obstruction.
The xOCC coils also have larger holes, and the Kanger tanks that take them also fully expose the holes to the liquid in the tank. They wick very well, but they can't be pushed as hard as the Beast coils can, and I think that's because there are only two holes.
I haven't tried the Eleaf EC or Vaporesso EUC coils because I don't yet have tanks that run them. I will by this time next week, though.
