SMOK RPM 2 Replacement Coils (Pack of 5) Review

Developed exclusively for the coveted SMOKtech RPM 2 Pod System, SMOK RPM 2 Replacement Coils (Pack of 5) offer five exceptionally crafted coils that allow you to continue enjoying all this vaping kit has to offer. You can choose from two different configurations: 0.6ohm DC MTL Coil for 12-25 wattages, and the 0.16ohm Mesh Coil, for 25-50 wattages. The MTL coil allows you to enjoy salt-based nicotine E-Liquids, while the 0.16ohm option gives you a direct-lung vaping experience with thicker clouds than is typically possible with a pod mod.

These SMOK RPM 2 coils are installed via a convenient press-fit system that keeps your hands mess-free. As one would expect from SMOK, they’re constructed from high-quality, resilient materials and have a reputation for lasting an impressively long time. Choose the coil configuration based on your preferred vaping style and allow yourself to savour all the RPM 2 System offers.

WHAT IS A VAPE COIL?

The vape coil is a lot like the heart of your mod or e-cigarette kit, and it’s the unit responsible for heating the e-liquid and vaporizing it. The coil resistance can be adjusted according to how many wraps of a wire there are, the gauge and type of wire. You’d then measure this resistance with the help of an Ohmmeter. Low resistance coils produce warmer vapour and larger clouds, whereas high resistance coils produce a cooler vape with less current.

Despite being so integral, the coil is a fairly simple mechanism. It’s constructed from a coiled wire, a piece of mesh, and some wicking material (usually cotton). There are plenty of different wires and wicking materials to choose from, and the best one for you depends on what you want to get out of your vaping experience.

DIFFERENT VAPE COIL TYPES

Whether you’re using a pre-made coil or are building your own, there are a few things to consider. Some brands will have both a ceramic and cotton option and occasionally use flax and wood pulp as wicking materials. Each of these has different effects on flavour and cloud production. The same rule applies when you build your coils, as different metals have different properties regarding ramp-up time, flavour and which mode they can be used in.

RPM 2 Replacement Coils – CERAMIC COIL

Ceramic coil material is porous, so air passes through it well and offers a super smooth draw. Many reviewers find that the ceramic material brings out the flavour more than other materials. They also tolerate high wattages well, so they’re a great addition to the more high-powered mods on the market. Ceramic coils have also been touted to last longer than cotton coils and help prevent dry hits.

RPM 2 Replacement Coils – KANTHAL COIL

Kanthal combines iron, chromium and aluminium and is a popular wire used in both pre-made and homemade coils. It has a super quick ramp-up time and, as such, creates impressive amounts of vapour. Kanthal coils are only suitable to be used in wattage mode. However, it’s soft and easy to work with wire whilst also holding its shape nicely, making it a popular option for many vapers.

VAPE COILS – OHMS

As we all know, the Ohm level measures electrical resistance, affecting taste and cloud production. When building your coils, you must measure the resistance with an Ohmmeter for your peace of mind and safety and to make sure you create the desired vaping experience.

RPM 2 Replacement Coils – A SUB OHM COIL

Lower resistance will provide warmer vapour, a slightly drier hit, and bigger clouds. The downside is that you’ll use your e-liquid more quickly, and typically you need to vape at a higher wattage meaning your 18650 li-ion battery will drain faster.

HOW LONG DOES A VAPE COIL LAST?

Heavy vapers: A very heavy vaper should change their coils every week. This might sound like a lot, but it’s worth it. The flavour of your e-liquid, cloud production and functionality of your vape will suffer if you neglect it. This rule is especially relevant for Sub Ohm vapers as they typically use higher VG liquids which are thicker and gum up coils more quickly.

Moderate vapers: Vapers who vape consistently throughout the day but only take a couple of drags at a time can get more use out of a coil as it isn’t getting as hot as frequently. Again, the type of juice you use and the power of your device will be a factor in this, but the general rule here is about once a fortnight.

Light vapers: Infrequent use, or a few hits here and there, suggests that your coils must only be changed every 3-4 weeks. If you’re using mouth-to-lung devices with a higher PG value, this also helps extend the lifespan of your coil.
