Hey everyone, I bought a Smok R40 TC Starter Kit from a local e-vape shop about two months ago. The coil it came with (0.6ohm CLP2 Fused Clapton Dual Core) is still running strong after almost 2 months. I thought that the coil would have burned out by now, since I use it a lot (100 puffs per day average, avg 4-5 second hit @ 25 watts) but the kit also came with a back-up coil (1.2ohm Micro MTL Clapton Core) which I thought was odd because it's COMPLETELY different from the one inside the mod right now.
I looked online for replacements for the .6 ohm CLP2 coil, but I've found very little results matching the EXACT coil in my mod to ones in the picture. Also, the manufacturers website has the coil listed, but there is no "Buy Now" link for it, which I have e-mailed them about. I have also asked one eBay seller who had the coil listed in a drop down menu, but not in the ad itself, if they have this exact coil.
I'm very new to vaping, this is my first mod and my first coil. My question is what coil(s) can I use in my mod without things blowing up or not working? I'm not much of a hardware person, I can barely build my own PC without some help from a friend, but I can easily write code and edit many OS/programs/apps. So if someone could maybe explain a bit about how these coils/atomizers work and what I should be looking for, that would be fantastic. I know different coils provide different effects like bigger clouds or more flavor, but I really don't care that much, because what I'm using right now has got my to quit smoking 2 packs of cigarettes a day. I will try the other coil that my mod came with, but I'm just not sure if I should wait until the current one gives out, or if not then how should I store the coil while its not in use?
If you need any other information, about the mod, the juice I use, or anything of the sort, I will be quick to respond. I've googled my heart out for the last 24 hours, and I've gone from "Guess I'm going to have to buy a new mod, because they don't sell the coils" to "Oh I can use any Micro CLP2 Smok Coil and I'll be fine!" and now back to a state of "WTF?"
Sorry for such a long post, I just wanted to get the whole story so you know where I'm coming from, and what I have. Thank you for any help you can provide, I'm going insane over here lol.
