If your Kanger or Nautilus coils are old and doesn't preform well My wife found a good what to clean them like new. Get a small pot bring it to a boil and put your coils in it for about 20-25min. Then let try over night and it will vape likes its brand new...Thanks wife! It many also work for other coils but these are the only 2 we tested. Relies if this method has helped you

I have never had a coil that vapes as well once it is dry burned, boiled, or soaked in anything.

I use mine for about 2 weeks than toss. For less than $1, if you're not going to rebuild them from scratch, I just don't see the point in having a "less than optimum" vape for that price LOL

This is a better way. Get a glass of water, then dry burn your coils to a glowing red after that while it is still glowing dip the coils, JUST THE COILS in the water, and you will get the all gunk come out.

Guaranteed to work. Everytime.

That isn't new silly. People have been doing that for years, back with cartomizers too .

I agree 100%.


I exclusively use sub ohm tanks now, and while the coils are expensive, its worth it to me to get an enjoyable vape with every puff, especially since I use liquid that costs $20 for 30mL usually.

Money isn't a concern since I set a monthly budget and never go over. Even with using a new coil in my devices each week, and using expensive e-liquid, I still never go over $70 a month. Smoking I spent about $200 a month.

    Trying to get more recruits eh!

    Thing I like about the Old Kanger OCC horizontal coils is they are extremely easy to rewick, I don't even bother cleaning the coils themselves when I do it and they still taste as good as new, actually they taste better since the original cotton is way way too dense...

    Rebuildable coil head. 5 dollar 100 ft wire from temco. 2 dollar bag of cotton from drug store. Even if you don't want to wrap a coil a 5 dollar bag of 100 pre built coils from fasttech. Easy peasy and no overnight waiting. 12 bucks for 100 coils or 12 bucks for 50 dualies. Maybe cheaper than the energy and water used in cleaning coils.

    When I did clean my coils I soaked them in coke and rinse.

    Learn how to the change the wick and dry burn. You`ll love it. Especially with cotton. :?) Night and day difference (although some are still sold on their silica, LOL)

    Lots of vids on you tube. It can be learned in a day. Will really help you out if you run out of coils on a holiday. :?)

    I do it this way too, Really works.
    He's talking about stock coils. No way you should dry burn a coil with cotton in it and I wouldn't even think about trying to take apart my nautilus 1.8 ohm vertical cotton coils to dry burn and re wick, I've taken one apart and good luck on the time it would take to try to rebuild it lol
