How long do CCELL coils really last?

[Susaz]

I know that it depends on many factors. Suppose a daily usage of 10ml 70/30 VG/PG at 30 watts, without making any new-user-errors. I’ve heard from several people that CCELL coils can last for months, and here is a professional guy claiming this:



On the other hand, many more people say that CCELL coils last for about a week, just like the other coils. I've burnt two CCELL coils in less than a month myself. However, I just bought a new CCELL coil. I'm gonna be very cautious with this one (priming, power, juice, etc), and see how long would it last. I'll post the result here. Nothing compares the taste from a brand new coil! Please share your experience with CCELL coils.

P.S. I live in Iran. vaping stuff are very rare and the prices are not regulated. I bought a Vaporesso CCELL coil for about 10$. Is it the right price, too cheap, or too expensive? I find them on online shops to be about 14$, but I'm confused if it's the price of the pack of 5 coils, or 14$ per coil?

I’ve read ceramic coils are dangerous as you can inhale particles from them. Uwell ( a vape company ) did a study and explained why they dont make them.

I read that too, and it appeared (to me) that Uwell was not ABLE to make a ceramic coil for whatever reason (or, don't want to). I have used ceramic with no ill effects, and that's pretty much the only place that ever posted that information. I also think even if a ceramic coil DID "crumble" that the particulate would have to be incredibly small to be vaporized along with your liquid. I mean a crumbly coil would probably not be GOOD, but maybe for reasons other than health .I use Vapresso ceramic coils from time to time and haven't noticed issues at all.

However, if that puts you off ceramic coils, I can certainly understand it and there are also some great NON ceramic coils, etc.

I've tried it, and it does almost nothing for ceramic coils. However, it worked great for an Eleaf coil I had.

My last cCell coil is still good after 100ml vaping. I got kind of tired of it, because this is my last cCell and I want to get an RTA. So I tried dry burning it at TC mode. Not only it didn't damage the coil, the coil is now even cleaner!

After vaping another 15ml, gunk narrowed the chimney again. I did the same thing with a toothpick, but the coil seems to be halfway dead, since it gives dry hits at 30+ watts. I accomplished burning a CCELL coil within 5 days (45 ml).

Dammit son, you sure are hard on coils, lol. Just kidding. Experimenting to find what works best is all part of the fun. You may want to look into using rda's and even rta's and build your own coils eventually. Youll get much better life out of coils that way. Plenty of youtube vids explain coil building in easy to understand terms are out there. My personal favorite is the limitless plus rdta. Its a dripper/tank setup and really easy to build on. I get awesome flavor and clouds with this thing. Coil life is roughly a month or longer, depending on what i use to make my coils with. Wick life, now thats a different story. I change out my wicks every 3 or 4 days or when it starts tasting bad. And all this is way cheaper than buying drop in coil heads that maybe last a week at best. But before you take this step, just do the research and learn. Its really easier than it sounds. Prebuilt coil heads are convenient and all but cant compare to building your own.

@Coyote628 Thanks. How many ml do you vape on an average day?

10 or more probably. I like the clouds so naturally im using plenty of juice, but im also a nicotine junkie and i like that too. So yeah, i go thru 10ml or so daily.

Wash it first, don't let it go bone dry. But yes, it works! Still, alcohol will wash the remains of the previous juice.
