Eleaf EC Mesh Coil

The Eleaf EC coil is much more than just a coil; it's a piece of history that defined an era of vaping. It's the original model that propelled the legendary iJust and Melo series to the top, introducing millions of vapers to a simple, reliable, and high-performing sub-ohm vaping experience. Renowned for its perfect balance between vapor production and flavor delivery, it remains a sure bet and a firm favorite for many vapers, both nostalgic and new.

Compatibility: An industry standard

The EC coil has established a standard format adopted by many manufacturers. Its compatibility is vast and extends far beyond the first Eleaf kits:

• Melo range: Melo, Melo 2, Melo 3 (and Nano), Melo 4, Melo 5
• iJust range: iJust 2, iJust S, iJust ECM
• Other Eleaf kits: Lemo 3, and many others.
• Other brands: Many clearomizers from brands like Aspire, Vaporesso or Smok use this type of coil.

How to choose your original EC coil

The original EC range is divided into two distinct categories. It is crucial to choose the one that matches your equipment and vaping style.

For typical use (Wattage/Power mode):

• EC 0.3Ω (30-80W): The benchmark for big clouds. Designed for powerful DL vaping, it produces dense and warm vapor.
• EC 0.5Ω (30-100W): The balanced choice. It is renowned for its excellent flavor reproduction while guaranteeing good vapor production.

For experts (Temperature Control Mode ONLY):

WARNING: The following coils MUST NOT be used in standard Wattage/Power mode, as this may damage them. They require an electronic mod with a suitable Temperature Control (TC) mode.

• EC-TC Ni 0.15Ω: Made of Nickel (Ni200), it is used exclusively in TC-Ni mode.
• EC-TC Ti 0.5Ω: Made of Titanium (Ti), it is used exclusively in TC-Ti mode.

Usage tips

For optimal performance, be sure to use e-liquids rich in Vegetable Glycerin (VG), with a concentration of 60% or higher. Remember to prime each new coil by applying e-liquid to the cotton and waiting 10 minutes after filling. If you are using a TC coil, always check that your device is set to the correct mode (TC-Ni or TC-Ti) before vaping.

FAQ

What's the difference with EC2 coils?
The EC2 is an improved version of the original EC, with wider e-liquid inlets. However, they are 100% interchangeable. You can use an EC coil in a Melo 4 and an EC2 coil in a Melo 2 without any problems.

What are the risks of using a TC coil in Wattage mode?
Nickel (Ni) and Titanium (Ti) wires should not be heated uncontrollably. In Wattage mode, the coil can overheat and degrade, making the experience dangerous and unpleasant. Always use the appropriate TC mode.

Conclusion

The Eleaf EC coil is proof that a successful design can stand the test of time. It's the choice for proven reliability and performance. Whether you're looking to revive your first iJust 2 kit or you're a temperature control expert, the original EC range has a solution for you. A true legend, still relevant today.
