SMOK Mini V2 A1, A2 & A3 Replacement Coils
The SMOK Mini V2 A1, A2 & A3 Replacement Coils are the official replacement heads for the SMOK TFV Mini V2 tank, also compatible with the TFV8 Baby V2 and Species tank systems. Each pack contains three mesh coils built for sub-ohm, direct-to-lung vaping, where dense vapour and rich flavour matter more than a tight throat hit. If your tank is tasting burnt, leaking, or simply not producing the clouds it used to, a fresh set of coils is usually the fix, and this is the exact replacement SMOK designed for the job. You can browse the full range of tank-ready coils in our Coils & Pods collection.
Key Features Of the SMOK Mini V2 A1, A2 & A3 Replacement Coils
- Genuine SMOK Mini V2 coils in three resistance options: A1, A2 and A3
- Mesh coil construction for faster heat-up and larger surface area
- Organic cotton wicking for cleaner flavour and reduced dry hits
- Pack of 3 coils per purchase
- Built for sub-ohm, high-VG e-liquid use
- Drop-in fit for TFV Mini V2, TFV8 Baby V2 and compatible Species tanks
Design
Each coil uses SMOK's mesh-core design rather than traditional round wire. The mesh sheet sits flat against the cotton, which spreads heat evenly across a wider surface and reduces the hot-spotting that causes burnt hits on standard coils. The A1 is a single mesh coil, the A2 uses a dual cobra-mesh layout, and the A3 has three separate heating cores paired with larger airflow slots at the base of the tank. All three thread directly into the SMOK Mini V2 tank base, so swapping coils takes seconds and needs no tools. Available at Vape Wave.
Coil Technology
Coil choice changes the vape more than most people expect, so it is worth matching the resistance to what you actually want from the tank.
- A1 – 0.17ohm Single Mesh: the fastest-heating of the three, tuned for flavour-forward vaping with a firm but manageable airflow.
- A2 – 0.2ohm Dual Mesh: a balanced option that leans slightly towards vapour production while keeping flavour intact.
- A3 – 0.15ohm Triple Mesh: the lowest resistance, built for maximum airflow and the thickest cloud output of the range.
All three are wicked with organic cotton, which absorbs e-liquid quickly and helps prevent the dry, burnt taste that comes from underwicked coils.
Recommended E-Liquid & Nicotine Strength
These are sub-ohm coils, so they're built for high-VG e-liquid (60% VG or above), typically shortfills in 3mg or 6mg nicotine strength. Standard nicotine salt e-liquids are formulated for higher-resistance pod systems and are not recommended here, as they can overwhelm a low-ohm coil and shorten its lifespan. If you're stocking up, our E-Liquids collection has high-VG shortfills that suit all three resistances.

Performance
Wattage has a direct effect on how these coils perform, so setting your device correctly makes a real difference.
| Coil | Resistance | Recommended Wattage | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| A1 | 0.17ohm | 90–140W (sweet spot 110–130W) | Flavour with strong vapour |
| A2 | 0.2ohm | 70–120W (sweet spot 85–105W) | Balanced flavour and cloud |
| A3 | 0.15ohm | 60–100W (sweet spot 80–90W) | Maximum vapour and airflow |
Who It's For
This coil pack suits existing SMOK TFV Mini V2, TFV8 Baby V2 and Species tank owners who need genuine replacements, as well as sub-ohm vapers who prioritise cloud and flavour over a tight MTL draw. If you currently vape nic salts on a small pod kit, these coils are not the right fit; they are built for direct-to-lung, high-VG use.
What's Included
- 3 x SMOK Mini V2 coils (resistance as selected: A1, A2 or A3)
- Coils are supplied dry and require priming before first use

Safety Information
Sub-ohm coils generate more heat and vapour than standard coils, so a few basics matter. Never use nicotine salt e-liquid or high-PG liquid in a sub-ohm coil, as it is not designed to handle it safely. Always prime a new coil with a few drops of e-liquid on the exposed mesh and cotton before fitting it, and leave the tank to sit for 5–10 minutes so the wicking can fully saturate. Do not fire a dry coil, and stop use immediately if you notice leaking, an unusual smell, or a persistent burnt taste. Keep all coils and e-liquid out of reach of children and pets, and this product is strictly for adults aged 18 and over.
Things To Consider Before Buying
Check that your tank is genuinely a TFV Mini V2, TFV8 Baby V2, or a compatible Species/R-Kiss variant before ordering, as coils from other SMOK ranges (such as the standard TFV8 Baby) are not interchangeable. Think about whether you want flavour, balance, or maximum vapour, since the A1, A2 and A3 are genuinely different experiences rather than just numbers on a resistance chart. It is also worth having high-VG e-liquid ready before your coils arrive, so you're not left waiting to prime and vape.
Maintenance Tips
Prime every new coil before use and give it a short rest period so the cotton absorbs properly. Keep your tank topped up, as running low on e-liquid is one of the most common causes of premature coil burnout. A gentle tap to clear excess liquid before refilling, along with wiping the base connection with a dry cloth occasionally, helps maintain a clean connection and consistent flavour. For further tank care guidance, our Vape Tanks collection page has compatible replacement parts if you ever need them.
Storage Tips
Store spare coils in their original packaging, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and away from heat sources such as radiators. Avoid leaving coils loose in bags or drawers where the mesh can be damaged, and try to use coils within a few months of opening for the most consistent flavour, since exposed mesh can oxidise over time.
Returns and Refunds Policy
As these are consumable coils that come into contact with e-liquid, they can only be accepted for return if faulty, unused, and in original sealed packaging. Full details, including how to start a return, are available on our Return & Refund Policy page.
Conclusion
The SMOK Mini V2 A1, A2 & A3 Replacement Coils are a straightforward, genuine fix for anyone running a TFV Mini V2, TFV8 Baby V2, or compatible Species tank. Whether you're chasing flavour with the A1, balance with the A2, or maximum vapour with the A3, matching the right coil to your wattage and e-liquid keeps your tank performing the way it should.

Frequently Asked Questions
What tank do SMOK Mini V2 coils fit?
The SMOK Mini V2 coils are designed for the SMOK TFV Mini V2 tank, which is also sold under the name TFV8 Baby V2. They are also compatible with the SMOK Species kit's stock tank and similar R-Kiss configurations, but they are not interchangeable with the standard TFV8 Baby (non-V2) coil range, so it's worth double-checking your tank model before ordering.
What's the difference between the A1, A2 and A3 coils?
The main difference is resistance and internal structure. The A1 is a single mesh coil at 0.17ohm, built for flavour with a firmer draw. The A2 is a dual mesh coil at 0.2ohm, giving a more balanced result between flavour and vapour. The A3 is a triple mesh coil at 0.15ohm with larger airflow slots, producing the biggest clouds of the three but slightly less concentrated flavour.
Which SMOK Mini V2 coil produces the most vapour?
The A3 0.15ohm triple mesh coil produces the most vapour of the three, thanks to its lower resistance and wider airflow design. It's the coil most cloud-focused vapers reach for, though it does use e-liquid faster than the A1 or A2.
Which SMOK Mini V2 coil gives the best flavour?
Most vapers find the A1 0.17ohm single mesh coil gives the cleanest, most concentrated flavour, since the single heating core focuses vapour production more tightly. The A2 is a close second, offering strong flavour with a bit more vapour on top.
How long do SMOK Mini V2 coils last?
With regular use, most vapers get roughly one to two weeks out of a coil before flavour starts to fade, though this varies with how often you vape, your wattage setting, and whether you're using a suitably high-VG e-liquid. Sweet or darker e-liquids tend to gunk coils faster than clear, simpler flavours.
What wattage should I use with SMOK Mini V2 coils?
Each coil has its own range: the A1 works best between 110W and 130W, the A2 between 85W and 105W, and the A3 between 80W and 90W. Starting at the lower end of the range and working up slowly is the safest way to find your preferred setting without risking a burnt hit.
Can I use nic salt e-liquid with these coils?
No. These are sub-ohm coils built for high-VG e-liquid, typically in 3mg or 6mg shortfill form. Nicotine salt e-liquids are formulated for higher-resistance pod coils, and using them in a sub-ohm coil like this can be harsh and isn't how the coil is designed to perform.
How do I prime a new SMOK Mini V2 coil?
Before fitting a new coil, apply a few drops of e-liquid directly onto the visible mesh and cotton, then fill the tank and let it sit for around 5 to 10 minutes so the wicking can fully saturate. Skipping this step is one of the most common reasons a brand-new coil tastes burnt on the first few puffs.
Why does my new coil taste burnt?
A burnt taste on a new coil almost always comes down to insufficient priming, an empty tank, or running the wattage too high for that specific coil. Double-check you've primed it properly, that the tank is topped up, and that you're within the recommended wattage range for the coil you're using.
Are SMOK Mini V2 coils the same as SMOK Baby V2 coils?
Yes, the SMOK TFV Mini V2 tank and the TFV8 Baby V2 tank use the same coil range, so Mini V2 and Baby V2 coils are the same product sold under two different tank names. The A1, A2 and A3 codes are identical across both.
How many coils come in a pack?
Each pack contains 3 coils, allowing you to rotate coils or keep spares on hand so you're never caught out with a burnt-out tank and no replacement ready.
Where can I buy genuine SMOK Mini V2 coils in the UK?
Vape Wave stocks genuine SMOK Mini V2 A1, A2 and A3 coils with fast UK delivery. You can browse the full range of compatible coils and pods in our Coils & Pods collection.
