    On average, how many ml's do you run through a coil, before replacing?
    Are you talking about a self made coil or a drop in? It’s really hard to say. On my menthol tobacco rta, it lasts usually two weeks or so with usage for about an hour each morning. Then I leave for work and take others with me. The coil is usually so bad from the tobacco absolute that I put in a new one. These days I run a lot of gti coils and get probably at least 2-300ml through them before the flavor drops enough for me to change them out.

    I use drop in coils, I've never gotten 200ml-300ml from a coil. Are the GTI coils that much better? Which tank?

    Any of the Vaporesso itanks can use them. I use the .4 ohm coils. Of course it depends some on the liquid being used. I started using a one shot called bongo that’s purple in color which could be lending to decreased coil life. I only got 100-150ml with that liquid. Also, I’m probably not as picky as some people when it comes to flavor reduced with coil degradation. I honestly don’t remember the last time I changed the coil on the itank that has my lmn# mix in it but it doesn’t get used a lot each day. I can start tracking my coils more closely if it would help.

    Thanks, as soon as the holidays are over, I'm going to order an Itank and some GTI coils

    What’s your favorite wattage range? I run the .4 coils starting at 40 watts and work up from there as the flavor decreases. Last one I changed was at 50 watts for a long time before changing it.

    What’s everyone up to today?
    Hi, Fran, I divided up some bulk mozzarella and provolone for making pizzas that I picked up on sale. I still have to vacuum bag them for the freezer. I have enough to make 12 pizzas.
    Earlier I put out food for the birds and squirrels.
    I just cleaned and rewicked one of my rtas.
    Still thinking about mixing up a tester or two.

    I usually vape from 30w(uwell caliburn G3 .4ohm) to 60w(Fireluke and Fireluke pro). My favorite device is the Vaporesso Swag PX80(GTX .2ohm 45/60 watts) I'd get a few more but seems like they have stopped making them,

    That’s a lot of pizzas you can make.

    I’ll check my stash. I might have one or two of them still.
