Smok Coils
SMOK coils are specific to the tank they were designed for, and SMOK has made a lot of tanks — so the model name printed on your tank matters more than anything else on this page. This range covers replacement coils for SMOK's sub-ohm tanks and classic kits, with packs running from £11.97 to £19.95 in packs of three or five.
Which SMOK coil fits which tank?
- Nord coils (£14.95, pack of 5) — for the Nord pod kits, in four builds: Mesh 0.6 ohm, MTL Mesh 0.8 ohm, Ceramic 1.4 ohm and Regular 1.4 ohm.
- V8 Baby Beast coils (£19.95, pack of 5) — for the TFV8 Baby Beast tank family, in the widest spread of builds we stock: Q2 (0.4 and 0.6), M2 (0.15 and 0.25), T6 (0.3), T8 (0.15), X4 (0.15), EU Core, Mesh and Strip.
- V12 Prince coils (£11.97, pack of 3) — for the TFV12 Prince tank, in nine builds: M4, Q4, T10, T10 Light Up, X6, Mesh, Strip, Max Mesh and Dual Mesh.
- TFV12 coils (£11.97, pack of 3) — for the original TFV12, in Dual Mesh and Max Mesh.
- TFV16 Single Mesh coils (£14.97, pack of 3) — for the TFV16 tank.
- Mini V2 S1 and S2 coils (£11.97, pack of 3) — for tanks on SMOK's Mini V2 platform; S1 and S2 are different builds, so match the letter on your existing coil.
- Vape Pen 22 coils (£19.95, pack of 5) — for the classic Vape Pen 22 kit.
We also stock SMOK RPM, RPM 2, RPM 160 mesh, RGC, Nord Pro and TFV18 coils — those sit in the main vape coils range alongside the rest of the coil wall.
Reading a SMOK coil's name
SMOK coil names look cryptic but follow a pattern: the first part is the tank family, the second is the build, and the number is the resistance. "V8 Baby Q2 0.4" means a coil for the TFV8 Baby Beast family, in the Q2 dual-coil build, at 0.4 ohm. The build letters tell you the internal construction — Q builds are quad/dual cores, M builds are lower-resistance multi-cores, T builds run six or eight cores, X4 is a quad, and Mesh and Strip use a sheet element instead of wound wire, which heats a larger surface at once. Two coils from the same family with different builds fit the same tank, so once you know your family name you can experiment between builds without buying the wrong part. If your old coil's lettering has worn off, bring it in — the shape and threading identify it.
Resistance and wattage on SMOK coils
The rule is the same as for any coil: the resistance tells you what the coil is for, and the wattage range printed on its side tells you how to run it.
- Nord Ceramic and Regular 1.4 ohm, and MTL Mesh 0.8 ohm — mouth-to-lung builds for nic salt and 50/50 10ml e-liquids at low power. If you run a Nord kit on 20mg nic salts, these are the ones.
- Nord Mesh 0.6 ohm — a looser, restricted direct-to-lung draw from the same pod kit.
- Everything in the Baby Beast, Prince, TFV12 and TFV16 families — sub-ohm, direct-to-lung coils built for high-VG e-liquid at higher wattage. The M2 0.15, T8 0.15 and X4 0.15 builds sit at the high-power end; Q2 0.4 and 0.6 are the tamer entry points for those tanks.
Stay inside the printed wattage range: above it the wick scorches, below it the flavour goes flat. If your mod is adjustable, start at the bottom of the range and work up.
When to change a SMOK coil
Coils are a consumable — a burnt or muted flavour usually means the coil has reached the end of its life rather than anything being wrong with the device or the liquid. Darkening liquid in the tank and a gurgling draw are the other signs. When you fit a fresh coil, prime it first: a few drops of liquid on the wicking ports, fill the tank, and give it ten minutes to soak before firing. Sub-ohm coils drink liquid quickly, so this matters more on a Baby Beast or Prince than on a small pod coil.
Common questions
Do SMOK coils fit other brands' tanks?
No — and SMOK coils are not even interchangeable between SMOK's own tank families. A Nord coil will not fit a Baby Beast, and a Prince coil will not fit a TFV12. Match the family name first, then the build.
Which liquid should I use?
The 1.4 and 0.8 ohm Nord builds pair with nic salt and 50/50 10ml liquids. The sub-ohm tank coils are made for thicker high-VG liquid in lower strengths — 20mg salts in a 0.15 ohm coil is not a combination we would sell you.
How long does a SMOK coil last?
It varies with use, liquid and power — sweeter liquids and higher wattage shorten coil life. Rather than quote a figure, we would say: when the flavour dulls or turns burnt, it is done.
Why are there so many builds for the same tank?
Because the build changes the character of the same tank: fewer, higher-resistance cores give a cooler, quieter vape at lower power, while mesh and multi-core builds heat more surface area for denser vapour at higher wattage. The tank stays the same; the coil decides how it behaves.
My SMOK kit takes pods, not coils.
Some SMOK kits use closed pods with built-in coils — those are under replacement pods rather than on this page.
Can you match my coil in store?
Yes. Bring the tank or the old coil into Merry Hill, Telford, Chelmsley Wood, Stevenage or Coalville and we will match it for you.
