Why coil compatibility matters on the Zen S
Clear cross reference charts reduce counter returns caused by customers buying the wrong resistance.
Seasonality interacts with coil compatibility more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.
Mesh structures tend to give more consistent flavour over the life of the coil.

Frequently asked questions
