Hello @Mom2three04, seems as though SMOK quality strikes again and is affecting the coils.
SMOK TFV12 PRINCE Review: Nice Design, Shame About The Coils...

Best idea that I can come up with is to try Vaporesso NRG GT Mesh coils.
Vaporesso - GT Mesh Coils

Best trying one first, just to make sure that it fits.
Those don't fit, I heard the best coils for the Prince was the original single mesh coil that came with it. The cotton is too thick in the max mesh, grab a needle and poke some holes in the cotton, might help.

I don't know how useful I can be in this thread, and I have zero experience with max mesh. I have this old mesh coil from OBS cube and I used to replace the cotton every time it taste burnt (re-wick). I also have experience using smok coils and it's a mess to re wick. The OBS ones are simple, almost as simple as re-wicking a normal RTA, as long as you know how to put them back together. Looking at pictures of this max mesh, I guess it's easily doable? I mean, that's not exactly the answer OP is looking for, but 4 days? Really that's long enough IMO, especially when I have no other tank but those.

Are you saying 4 days is good for mesh coils, I have several different tanks and even though I'm not a heavy vaper, I get 3 weeks out of my mesh coils.

Depends on usage mate. I replace my wicks everyday on my serpent elevate. I replace cottons on those mesh coils I think 2-3 days. This colleague of mine ask me for help on his OBS cube only once after a month of usage. He still decided to not buy replacement coils because he knows there's a way to replace those wicks, he just have to learn how. I say good for yah making them last that long! Or could also be brand related. Damn, I tried smok coils once and only last a few hours and it's wasted. I'm just suggesting here, if OP can do something like that. If she already have lots in the bin, nothing to loose trying this method.

The two biggest coil killers are sweet juice and high wattage. I gave up on Smok products a few years back having a bad experience with a local vape shop selling knock-off Smok coils. I only use rebuildables now. You might want to check to see if you got some fake coils. My experience with fakes they would only last one to two days vs real coils lasting a week.

i rather to be rebuilding rba's than getting bad coils from smok, or taking the RBA head to a shop for re-builds and rewicks ...

These coils are a great suggestion, unfortunately they will only fit the Baby Prince and not the Prince. I am not aware of any compatible coils. My aunt uses a TFV12 Prince and I've been trying to find her compatible coils but have not been having any luck.

Like I posted above, the Bohr archer tank mesh coils will fit according to the review by VapnFagan, and are suppose to be better than Smok coils. BOHR Archer Replacement Coil | Mesh Coil – VaporDNA If you don't want to try those the .15 ohm original Prince mesh coils are suppose to be better than the .17 ohm Max mesh.

Thank you. I'll look into that. Sorry I missed it in the thread.
