DTL Coil Collection

What is DTL vaping?

Direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping is exactly what it sounds like - you inhale the vapour straight into your lungs in one smooth breath, just like taking a deep breath of air. It's completely different from mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping, which is more like how you’d smoke a cigarette (into your mouth and then into to your lungs).

If that sounds more your style - take a look at our range of MTL devices & MTL coils instead.

What makes DTL vaping special?

Now that you know what it is - you might be wondering what it is about DTL vaping that seasoned vapers like so much. Ultimately, it's all about the experience. DTL vapes deliver a fantastic combination of bigger clouds and richer flavours.

For many, it's the natural progression after starting with MTL devices.

Here’s what makes it different:

• Lower resistance coils: These sub ohm beauties run at less than 1.0Ω resistance (hence, why direct-to-lung vaping is also known as sub ohm vaping).
• More open airflow: You'll enjoy a much less restricted draw when you inhale.
• Higher power settings: Usually running between 30 - 100W, giving you that extra oomph.
• Impressive clouds: Perfect if you love creating big plumes of vapour clouds.
• Enhanced flavour profile: Gets the absolute most from your favourite e-liquids.
• Lower nicotine levels: Most DTL vapers stick to 3-6mg/ml for a smooth experience.
• High VG e-liquids: Works best with 70% VG or higher juices for those thick, satisfying clouds.

How do I choose the right DTL coil?

First, it's important to understand that the coil itself is what makes DTL vaping possible. DTL coils are specifically designed with larger wicking ports, more surface area and lower resistance to handle higher wattages and increased airflow. 

These design features allow for that direct lung inhale while producing the satisfying clouds and enhanced flavour that DTL vapers love. Without the right coil, you simply can't get a proper DTL experience. 

Now - let us help you find the perfect replacement DTL coil for your device. Here are the factors to consider.

Coil material

Our DTL coil range features various materials and builds to suit different vaping preferences:

• Mesh coils: The gold standard for flavour delivery, these use a strip of mesh rather than traditional wire, providing a larger surface area for more even heating and exceptional taste
• Kanthal coils: Reliable and versatile for everyday vaping
• Stainless steel: Compatible with temperature control devices and offers a cleaner taste
• Clapton and exotic builds: For those seeking specialised performance

Wattage range

Each DTL coil is built to perform best within specific power ranges. Always check the recommended wattage printed right on your coil packaging and start at the lower end. Then gradually dial it up until you find that perfect sweet spot. 

Compatibility

It's absolutely crucial to choose coils that fit your specific sub ohm vape tank or pod system otherwise it won’t work. Our product descriptions clearly spell out which devices each coil works with but if you're ever not 100% sure, our friendly team is always ready to help you find the perfect match. That's what we're here for.
