What's in the Pack
This listing is for a pack of two replacement coils made for the Uwell Valyrian 2 sub-ohm tank. If your Valyrian 2 has started tasting burnt, flat, or noticeably weaker than when it was new, the coil is almost always the reason, and this is the fix. Genuine Uwell coils are built to the tolerances the Valyrian 2 tank expects, so airflow, wicking, and the seal against the tank all line up the way they're supposed to.
Built Specifically for the Uwell Valyrian 2
The Valyrian 2 uses its own coil family, and coils from other Uwell tanks generally won't fit or seal correctly, even if they look similar. Always check the coil is listed for the Valyrian 2 specifically before you buy, rather than assuming any Uwell coil will do. Using the correct coil isn't just about performance either, a mismatched coil can leak, flood, or fail to seat properly in the base, which usually means wasted e-liquid and a frustrating vape.
Uwell's coils for this tank use a mesh heating element rather than traditional round wire wrapped in cotton. Mesh coils heat more evenly across a larger surface area, which is why sub-ohm tanks like the Valyrian 2 tend to produce fuller flavour and thicker clouds than tanks running older coil designs.
Coil Resistance and What It Means
Valyrian 2 coils are sub-ohm, built for direct-lung (DL) vaping rather than a tight mouth-to-lung draw. In practice that means:
- They're designed to be run at higher wattages than mouth-to-lung coils, producing a warmer, airier draw and visibly more vapour.
- Lower-resistance mesh builds generally give the biggest clouds and the most direct flavour hit, while slightly higher-resistance options in the same range tend to run a touch cooler and can stretch your e-liquid a little further.
- Always set your device's wattage within the range printed on the coil itself (it's usually stamped or printed right on the coil housing), going above it shortens coil life and can produce a harsh, burnt taste almost immediately.
If you're not sure which resistance option is right for your setup, start at the lower end of the coil's stated wattage range and work upward a few watts at a time until the flavour and vapour feel right. It's much easier to add power than to recover a coil you've already overdriven.
When to Replace Your Valyrian 2 Coils
There's no fixed lifespan for any vape coil, it depends on how much you vape, what e-liquid you use, and how you treat the tank, but there are clear signs it's time to swap in a fresh one from this pack:
- Burnt or harsh taste that wasn't there before, especially a dry, scorched hit at the start of a vape.
- Flavour fading or tasting muted compared to a fresh coil, even with the same e-liquid.
- Gurgling, crackling, or spitting back of hot e-liquid, which usually points to a saturated or failing wick.
- Leaking from the base or airflow that wasn't a problem when the coil was new.
- Visible discolouration on the coil's mesh or wicking ports when you take it out to check.
For most people vaping regularly, that works out to somewhere between one and three weeks per coil, though heavy use, sweeter or darker e-liquids, and higher-VG juice can all shorten that window. Keeping a spare pack on hand means you're never stuck vaping on a burnt coil while you wait for a new one to arrive.
How to Fit and Prime a New Coil
Getting this right matters more than almost anything else for coil longevity, a dry hit on the very first puff can damage a brand new coil permanently. Take it slowly.
Fitting
- Empty the tank and separate the top and base sections following the Valyrian 2's usual disassembly.
- Unscrew the old coil from the base and screw the new one in by hand until snug, don't overtighten, as this can crack the coil housing or damage the threading.
- Check the o-rings on the coil and base are seated properly and undamaged before you reassemble, since a misplaced o-ring is one of the most common causes of leaking.
Priming
- Before adding e-liquid, drip a few drops directly into the visible wicking ports on the coil to pre-saturate the cotton or mesh wicking.
- Fill the tank with e-liquid and leave it to sit for five to ten minutes so the liquid can fully soak through before you vape.
- Take a few slow, low-power puffs without firing the device first (if your mod allows priming puffs), then start vaping at the lower end of the coil's wattage range.
Skipping the wait, or firing the coil dry to "test" it, is the single most common way people ruin a coil on day one.
Getting the Best Flavour and Longest Coil Life
- Use e-liquid with a higher VG content, which is what sub-ohm tanks like the Valyrian 2 are designed around, high-PG liquid can struggle to wick fast enough and increases the risk of dry hits.
- Never let the tank run dry. Vaping on an empty or near-empty tank is one of the fastest ways to burn out a mesh coil.
- Avoid chain vaping for long stretches. Giving the wick a short pause between puffs lets it re-saturate properly.
- Sweeter and darker e-liquids (custards, desserts, tobaccos) tend to gunk up coils faster than clean fruit or menthol mixes, so expect to replace coils a little more often with those flavours.
- Give the tank a rinse with warm water and let it dry fully before fitting a new coil if you're switching flavours, to stop old flavour notes muddying the new one.
Storing Your Spare Coil
Since this pack gives you two coils, it's worth thinking about how you store the one you're not using yet. Keep the spare in its original packaging, somewhere cool and dry, away from direct sunlight or anywhere it could get knocked around in a bag. Mesh coils are more delicate than they look, the fine mesh element can be damaged by pressure even when it's not in use, so avoid tossing a loose coil into the bottom of a pocket or bag where keys or coins might crush it. Keeping it sealed until you need it also stops dust or lint from getting into the wicking ports before it's even been fitted.
If you vape daily, it's worth getting into the habit of ordering a fresh pack before you're down to your last coil rather than after. Coils don't fail gradually in a straight line, they'll often perform reasonably well and then drop off quite suddenly, so having a spare ready to go means you're never caught out mid-week with a burnt coil and nothing to swap it for.
UK Compliance and Nicotine Information
This listing is for coil hardware only, it does not contain e-liquid or nicotine in itself. If you're pairing it with nic salt e-liquid, remember that UK regulations cap nicotine salt strength at 20mg/ml (2%) under TPD rules, and all nicotine-containing products sold on this site are strictly for adults aged 18 and over. Any e-liquid sold as 0mg contains no nicotine whatsoever. As with all vaping hardware and e-liquid, keep coils and any accompanying e-liquid well out of reach of children and pets.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will these coils fit my Valyrian 2, or do I need the original Valyrian?
This pack is made for the Valyrian 2 specifically. The original Valyrian tank uses a different coil design, so double-check which tank you own before ordering if you're not sure which generation you have.
How many coils are in this pack?
This pack contains two coils, giving you a spare on hand for when the first one starts to fade rather than having to reorder and wait.
Why does my new coil taste burnt already?
This almost always means it wasn't primed properly, or it was fired before the e-liquid had time to soak into the wicking. Unfortunately, a dry-fired mesh coil usually can't be recovered, the best fix is to fit the second coil from this pack and prime it properly using the steps above.
Can I use any e-liquid with these coils?
You'll get the best results with higher-VG e-liquid, since that's what the Valyrian 2's sub-ohm coils and airflow are built around. Thinner, high-PG liquids can leave the wick under-saturated and are more likely to cause dry hits.
How do I know what wattage to vape these coils at?
Check the resistance and recommended wattage range printed on the coil itself, and start near the bottom of that range. You can always increase the wattage in small steps once you know how the coil performs, but running above the stated range from the start will shorten its life significantly.
How often will I need to reorder?
It varies by how much and what you vape, but most people find they're replacing a Valyrian 2 coil every one to three weeks. Keeping a spare pack like this one means you're not left without a working tank when a coil finally gives out.
