Welcome to ecf. Have you considered using more than 1 mod at a time? Many members split their vaping among many mods so as to not over work just 1 or 2.

What type of device are you looking for? Have you looked around to see what is available?

We would really need a bit more info before being able to direct you.

:)

For longevity and flavor you will need to move away from SMOK coils.

Vaporesso GT mesh coils fit the Baby Beast and will give you great flavor and longevity. If you are not a fan of the mesh coil any of Vaporesso's GT Core coils will fit the Baby Beast.

Non mesh Vaporesso GT coils Vaporesso NRG GT Replacement Coils | GT Mesh Vape Coils
Mesh Vaporesso GT coils Vaporesso GT Mesh Replacement Coil - 3 Pack | Replacement Coils | Vaporbeast

If you want to move away from SMOK completely, try one of these tanks

Freemax Mesh Pro with their double or triple coils
Vaporesso NRG with their mesh coil
Geekvape Alpha tank with their single or dual mesh coils


These coils are also compatible with the Baby Beast, allows you to keep the Baby Beast but get a better coil. On this list I recommend the Vaporesso GT Core Mesh coil. I've heard the Eleaf HW coils are nice but haven't tried them.

SMOK Big Baby Beast, Baby Beast and Big Baby Beast Light use the same coils
* Eleaf HW coils [30W Pick! - Consistent build quality]
* Eleaf HW-1 SS316 coil [TC Pick! - Only TC offering]
* E-XY T1 coils
* Geekvape iM1+4 coils
* iJoy XS coils
* Jomo Tech Smartvape TC80 coils
* Joyetech ProCore Aries coils [Do NOT fit 22mm tanks]
* Joyetech ProCore C1-S MTL coil [MTL Pick! - Only MTL offering]
* Sigelei SLYDR SM coils
* SMOK TFV8 baby coils
* Geekvape Aero Mesh coils
* Teslacigs H8 coils
* Vapefly Fantasy Mini M8 coils
* Vaporesso NRG GT Core coils [50W+ Pick! - Fantastic wicking w/o flooding]
* Vaportech M4/8 coils
* Vaptio Frogman coils
* WOTOFO FLOW coils [40W Pick! - No spitback]

Can you define "heavy vaping"?

How many ml do you get through in the 2 days a SMOK coil lasts? I vape 16ml per day and my Freemax or Vaporesso coils last 7 to 10 days but as @Sugar_and_Spice suggests I run 2 or 3 mods/tanks at one time so no single tank gets "overworked"

Depending on the juice I will get 80 to 120ml through a coil at 40 to 55 watts.

Welcome

Staying on the lower end of the coils wattage specifications and closing off the airflow a bit to compensate will probably help. I used the big baby beast tank for a while and was getting a week or more out of the coils. I was also vaping fairly thin juice which probably helped.

Baby beast coils last me 2 to 3 days. My arco 2 can handle my style of vaping for 2 weeks or more on one coil. I want a falcon tank but the proprietary coils are a turn off for me. My arco takes lots of different companies coils. I would suggest a bigger tank, cloud beast size, and a duel battery mod to run it.

I'm not positive on the amount of juice I use daily. It seems I am filling the tank too often. It's a 2 ml tank. As for the heavy vaping I mean I vape like I smoked. Constantly. Hope I answered everything. Thanks

Thanks for responding. I want a mod that's easy to use and easy to change coils. I have a tank with a rebuildable coil. I have no clue how to do that. My son does it for me when he has a chance. I will eventually get a 2nd mod so as to not over tire this one

I don't know if it has been mentioned yet, but I get good longevity out of the Innokin Zenith MTL Tank.

You can just buy the tank if you want, and add it to any mod you choose, it uses a standard 510 screw. Or you could buy the zenith tank as part of a complete kit. I prefer to use a mod with a removable battery, and have a bunch of the zenith tanks. It can take 1 of 3 coils, either a zenith 1.6 Ohm (14-18 watts), 0.8 Ohm (15-19 watts), or the plexus z coil, which is lower Ohms again and higher wattage. Personally I and many others don't fancy the Plexus coil, but I really like the 1.6 and 0.8 coils.

I get anywhere from 5 days to 2+ weeks out of the zenith tank coil, I vape anywhere from 7-16mls a day. It does also depend on the juice you are using. I find higher VG juices tend to make me go through coils a bit quicker, but not a lot. Added sweeteners in juice definitely burns the coils quicker.

By way of example, I can easily get 2 weeks out of Halo Cigs juice, which is higher PG and as far as I know, doesn't have added sweetener. On the other hand, I noticed I only got 2-3 days from a juice by Golden State Vapor, which is known for killing coils as they do add sweetener to the juice.

Hope that helps.

Oh yes, and the Zenith tank has a top fill mode, easy to fill, and you can even change coils without needing to empty the tank. It is a standard MTL (mouth to Lung) tank, easy enough to change coils, basically you don't have to think too much, just add juice, change coils easily, etc.

Thanks @sdennislee for reminding me that I could use GTs in my Smok mods (both bought before I knew better). Totally agree with sdennislee, substitute GT coils wherever possible, they really are that good.

If you're looking for new kits, check Vaporesso Luxe and Armour Pro. Both use the GT and work great.

Freemax Fireluke. 25 coil will last me 3-5 weeks and the tank is compatible with the Pro Mesh coils as well. Vaporesso nrg or Cascade are also good tanks. If you want another rta the Augvape Intake is a good single coil. For a kit the GeekVape Legend with Alpha tank is a good setup. Legend is a durable dual 18650 device.
