Dry hits - the unpleasant experience of burnt taste and stinging smell when vaping - are a common problem and can significantly impair the steam experience. The reason for this is usually an inadequate saturation of the heating spiral (Coil) With e-liquid, Which leads to an overheating of the winding and burning the wick material.
While dry hits are partly caused by operating errors, Are they just as often a sign for it, that the coil has reached its lifespan. Since each heating spiral is subject to natural wear, a regular exchange is essential, To make optimal taste- and to ensure steam development.
In the following we will show you professional strategies, with which you can effectively avoid dry hits and significantly extend the lifespan of your coils.
1. Selection of a suitable e-liquid: Clear, not very sweet, coilschonend
The composition of your e-liquid plays a crucial role in the durability of your coil. Especially sweet -containing liquids leave sticky residues on the heating spiral and significantly reduce the efficiency of the wick material. Over time, this leads to a shortened lifespan of the coil and increased tendency to dry hits.
Dark or strongly flavored liquids wear out coils faster than clear, less sweetened variants.
Recommendation: If possible, choose an e-liquid with little or no sweetener and a transparent color. This is how you minimize deposits and maximize the lifespan of your heating spirals.
2. Careful priming technology: The key to coil longness
A professional preparation (“Priming”) New coils is essential, To prevent the winding from drying out. Before installing, drip 3-4 drops of your e-liquid directly onto the visible wick material of the coil. Then assemble the coil, Fill the tank completely and let the device rest for at least 5-10 minutes.
This procedure is fully saturated by the winding, which significantly reduces the risk of a dry hits on the first train. In addition, correct priming improves the aroma intensity and extends the overall life of the coil.
3. Performance adjustment: Gentle ride avoids coil damage
Each coil is for a specific range of power (Wattage) interpreted. Exceeding this area leads to a significant reduction in the coil life or even burning to immediate.
Tipp: Start when driving a new coil with the lowest recommended wattage and increase it gradually. In this way, winding and wick material adapt optimally to the thermal conditions, Which enables a longer service life.
4. Observe the fluid level: Always sufficient e-liquid in the tank
A fluid level in the tank that is too low can lead to this, that the winding is no longer completely surrounded by the e-liquid. As soon as the wick opening is no longer submerged, the wick absorbs less liquid - the result is dry hits and damage to the coil.
Rule: Be sure to, that your tank or pod is always at least half filled, so that the wick openings are always in the e-liquid. So the saturation remains constant and the coil is protected from drying out.
5. Choose the correct VG/PG ratio
E-liquids mainly consist of vegetable glycerin (VG) and propylene glycol (PG). VG is viscoser and makes fluid intake more difficult by fine wick openings, while PG is more thin and enables fast saturation.
For coils with small wick openings - such as the popular T18E 1,7 Ohm coils-we recommend liquids with a VG share of maximum 60 %. Hochviscose “Max VG”-Liquids (≥80% VG) are more suitable for more powerful sub-ohm coils with large wick openings.
Careful handling of your e-cigarette-from the selection of the right e-liquid to the correct performance regulation-not only ensures a more intensive taste experience, but also for a significantly extended lifespan of your coils.
