Everything You Need to Know About the SMOK V8-Baby Coils

Since the inception of the vaping revolution nearly a decade ago, the industry at large has experienced unprecedented growth and advancement. Progression has been swift and radical, with game-changing innovations being introduced on a regular basis. From MODs and tanks, to kits and e-liquids, the development of vaping products has been impressive indeed. One of the most impactful advances in atomizer coil technology is undeniably attributed to SMOK’s TFV line of trailblazing coils. The TFV4, TFV8, TFV8 Baby, and TFV12 series have all been exceptionally widespread, and have risen the standards of vaping to new heights. Among the vast collection, the TFV8 Baby Beast Coils have been particularly popular, as they operate in conjunction with an array of groundbreaking tanks.

The SMOK TFV8 Baby Beast collection of atomizer coils deliver a vaping experience that was once only obtainable with rebuildable atomizers—RDAs, RBA, RTAs, and RDTAs. Mammoth vapor clouds, accompanied by rich, intense, and flavorful hits was now obtainable without being forced to build your own coils. E-juice flavors spring to life, as the intensity of taste and robustness of profile could now be relished in a fashion that was very difficult to experience without the skill and knowhow of properly assembling your own atomizer coils.

As SMOK’s revolutionary TFV8 Baby Beast Coils rose to stardom, the company responded with numerous additions to the celebrated line. What started as a modest three-part collection has now blossomed into an extensive series of 8 distinct iterations, all with unique formations, resistances, and purposes. Inasmuch as this variety is marvelous in its ability to satisfy the preferences and desires of all vapers, distinguishing between them can be a daunting task. This article will go through each of SMOK’s TFV8 Baby Beast Coils, detailing and explaining all you need to know in order to determine the variation(s) best for you.

SMOK V8-Baby Q2 Atomizer Coil:

The SMOK V8-Baby Q2 Coil is among the smallest within the series. Containing a horizontally-configured dual-coil system, the Q2 is the preferred choice among vapers who seek an open and airy draw. With a single hole directly in its center, the V8-Baby Q2 offers very little resistance when taking a hit, making it great for flavor chasers. Although this phenomenal atomizer coil does manufacture massive vapor clouds, it is certainly more tame than some of the other availabilities within the bunch. Set to a resistance of 0.4 ohms, the Q2 can accommodate wattage as low as 40W and as high as 80W. However, the sweet spot tends to be in the 55W – 65W range.

Resistance: 0.4 Ohms

Wattage Range: 40W – 80W

Recommended Wattage: 55W – 65W

Best For: Open and Airy Draw, Flavor

SMOK V8-Baby Q4 Atomizer Coil:

The SMOK V8-Baby Q4 Atomizer Coil affords a very similar experience to that of the Q2. The single centered hole is armed with a solid quadruple-coil configuration, which are horizontally stacked. Open and airy in draw, the Q4 delivers a mildly cooler hit than the Q2, and provides for a slightly more robust flavor experience. Enthusiasts commonly claim that the Q4 tends to last a bit longer than the Q2, as the head contains a bit more cotton. Although the V8-Baby Beast Q4 is also set to a resistance of 0.4 ohms, it has a lower wattage threshold, with a minimum of 30W and a maximum of 65W. The recommended wattage for the Q4 is between 50W and 60W.

Resistance: 0.4 Ohms

Wattage Range: 30W – 65W

Recommended Wattage: 50W – 60W

Best For: Open and Airy Draw, Flavor, Cooler Hits

SMOK V8-Baby X4 Atomizer Coil:

The SMOK V8-Baby X4 Coil is the second quadruple-coil design within the collection. However, unlike the Q4’s horizontal configuration, the X4 boasts a vertical formation. That is, rather than a large center hole with the four coils stacked, the X4 has dual holes that sit side-by-side. The result is a tighter hit with less airflow, making it better for vapers who seek a more restrictive draw. However, due to the vertical positioning of the coils, the head contains less cotton, and will therefore tend to burn out quicker than the Q2 and Q4. Set to a resistance of 0.15 ohms, the V8-Baby X4 is capable of operating with a minimum wattage of 30W and a maximum of 70W, with 45W – 60W as the sweet spot.

Name: SMOK V8-Baby X4 Coil

Resistance: 0.15 Ohms

Wattage Range: 30W – 70W

Recommended Wattage: 45W – 60W

Best For: Tighter Hits

SMOK V8-Baby T6 Atomizer Coil:

The SMOK V8-Baby T6 Atomizer Coil boasts a sextuple formation. Looking at the head from the top, you will notice three separate holes, each of which contains dual horizontal coils, together totaling six. The T6 is known for its tighter draw and increased resistance, while capable of manufacturing larger vapor clouds than the Q2, Q4, or X4. It offers better airflow than the X4, but tends to burn out at a swifter pace as well. The V8-Baby T6 is set to a resistance of 0.2 ohms, and can accommodate wattage output as low as 40W and up to a whopping 130W, with 70W to 90W as the recommended setting. This increased power capacity makes the hits warmer than the previous three, which is the preferred experience for some vapers.

Name: SMOK V8-Baby T6 Coil

Resistance: 0.2 Ohms

Wattage Range: 40W – 130W

Recommended Wattage: 70W – 90W

SMOK V8-Baby T8 Atomizer Coil:

The SMOK V8-Baby T8 Atomizer Coil is very similar to the T6, but with an added core. The octuple head boasts four separate holes, each housing dual-coils, bringing the total number of individual coils to an astonishing 8. The added two coils will slightly increase vapor production, while the flavor is very slightly less intense than the T6. You will notice a mildly tighter hit than the T6, and vapers claim that the T8 lasts a bit longer as well. Set to a resistance of 0.15 ohms, the V8-Baby T8 can operate with a power level as low as 60W and up to 110W, with the sweet spot remaining within the 60W to 80W range. The lower wattage equates to a slightly cooler hit than that experienced with the T6.

SMOK V8-Baby T12 Atomizer Coil:

The SMOK V8-Baby T12 Coil is the big kahuna of the collection. Massive in size, this impressive atomizer contains six distinct holes, each of which contains a separate dual-coil formation. This is the only duodecuple (12-coil) iteration within the bunch. The sheer size, the number of coils, and the amount of cotton included results in supreme flavor intensity and vapor production. Tighter on the draw, the V8-Baby T12 Coils tend to last longer than the aforementioned variations. Set to a resistance of 0.15 ohms, these monsters are designed to operate with a wattage range of 50W – 90W, with a recommended range between 60W and 80W.

SMOK V8-Baby M2 Atomizer Coils:

The SMOK V8-Baby M2 Coil is the only version within the collection engineered for mouth-to-lung vaping and/or direct output devices. Best used with constant voltage systems, such as the SMOK Stick V8, the M2 Coils are set to a resistance of 0.25 ohms. If used with a MOD equipped with wattage control functionality rather than a constant voltage battery, which is not recommended, you must stay within a wattage range of 25W – 45W, with 35W as the sweet spot. Due to the fact that the V8-Baby M2 Coils are specifically designed for mouth-to-lung vaping, you will experience a very tight draw relative to any of the other coils within the series.

Name: SMOK V8-Baby M2 Coil

Resistance: 0.25 Ohms

Wattage Range: 25W – 45W

Recommended Wattage: 35W

SMOK V8-Baby Mesh Atomizer Coils:

The SMOK V8-Baby Mesh Coil is the most recent addition to the legendary collection. Revolutionary in design, these pioneering atomizers feature an innovative mesh-type wiring to encompass the organic cotton wicks, rather than standard coiled wires. Due to the markedly increased surface area, you will enjoy the most robust flavor than any of the other variations. Moreover, since the mesh wiring makes contact with a greater amount of the cotton, the V8-Baby Mesh Coils tend to last substantially longer than the others within the series as well. The only negative characteristic of the V8-Mesh baby Coils is that it tends to take longer to heat than the others, albeit very slight. With a resistance of 0.15 ohms, these progressive coils are meant to operate with a wattage output of 40W to a maximum of 80W, with the sweet spot between 60W to 70W.

Name: SMOK V8-Baby Mesh Coil

Resistance: 0.15 Ohms
